CVE-2022-43552
Full vulnerability record from the local CVENow database.
Description
A use after free vulnerability exists in curl <7.87.0. Curl can be asked to *tunnel* virtually all protocols it supports through an HTTP proxy. HTTP proxies can (and often do) deny such tunnel operations. When getting denied to tunnel the specific protocols SMB or TELNET, curl would use a heap-allocated struct after it had been freed, in its transfer shutdown code path.

"value": "Existe una vulnerabilidad de uso después de liberación en curl anterior a 7.87.0. Se le puede pedir a Curl que tunelice prácticamente todos los protocolos que soporta a través de un proxy HTTP. Los proxies HTTP pueden (y a menudo lo hacen) denegar dichas operaciones de tunelización. Cuando se le deniega tunelizar los protocolos específicos SMB o TELNET, curl usaría una estructura asignada en el heap después de haber sido liberada, en su ruta de código de cierre de transferencia."
