CVE-2026-86415 PUBLISHED CVSS 7.5 HIGH

Reported by curl · Published October 20, 2026

libcurl's connection cache match function never considers the automatic client certificate option, so a cached, already authenticated Schannel connection can be handed to a transfer that got redirected to a different origin, even though the code explicitly switched off the auto client cert option for that transfer to prevent exactly this.
