RHSA-2026:82895 PUBLISHED CVSS 4.800000190734863 MEDIUM

An out of bounds read flaw has been discovered in the curl project. Under specific conditions the path comparison logic makes curl read outside a heap buffer boundary. This bug either causes a crash or it potentially makes the comparison come to the wrong conclusion and lets the clear-text site override the contents of the secure cookie, contrary to expectations and depending on the memory contents immediately following the single-byte allocation that holds the path.
