An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2023-23915 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Haxx Curl. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-23915/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-23915/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-23915","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-23915/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-23915","record":{"aliases":["ALPINE-CVE-2023-23915","AZL-13649","AZL-13652","AZL-13655","AZL-13660","AZL-34601","AZL-38093","CLEANSTART-2026-NK66737","CURL-CVE-2023-23915","DEBIAN-CVE-2023-23915","ECHO-a7e9-9bbf-4f58","GHSA-2c3h-vr56-625m","JLSEC-2026-403","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-11-CVE-2023-23915","UBUNTU-CVE-2023-23915"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"curl library","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can bypass HSTS protection in curl when parallel transfers overwrite the cache, allowing insecure HTTP connections.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"security_feature_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"hackerone","cpe":[{"product":"curl","vendor":"haxx"},{"product":"active_iq_unified_manager","vendor":"netapp"},{"product":"clustered_data_ontap","vendor":"netapp"},{"product":"h300s_firmware","vendor":"netapp"},{"product":"h410s_firmware","vendor":"netapp"},{"product":"h500s_firmware","vendor":"netapp"},{"product":"h700s_firmware","vendor":"netapp"},{"product":"universal_forwarder","vendor":"splunk"}],"cvss":{"score":6.5,"severity":"medium","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-319","name":"Cleartext Transmission of Sensitive Information"}],"description":"A cleartext transmission of sensitive information vulnerability exists in curl \u003cv7.88.0 that could cause HSTS functionality to behave incorrectly when multiple URLs are requested in parallel. Using its HSTS support, curl can be instructed to use HTTPS instead of using an insecure clear-text HTTP step even when HTTP is provided in the URL. This HSTS mechanism would however surprisingly fail when multiple transfers are done in parallel as the HSTS cache file gets overwritten by the most recentlycompleted transfer. A later HTTP-only transfer to the earlier host name would then *not* get upgraded properly to HSTS.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Security feature bypass in https://github.com/curl/curl","id":"CVE-2023-23915","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"haxx:curl","products":["haxx:curl","netapp:active_iq_unified_manager","netapp:clustered_data_ontap","netapp:h300s_firmware","netapp:h410s_firmware","netapp:h500s_firmware","netapp:h700s_firmware","splunk:universal_forwarder"],"type":"security_feature_bypass","year":"2023"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Denial of service in https://github.com/curl/curl","id":"CVE-2023-23916"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Security feature bypass in https://github.com/curl/curl","id":"CVE-2023-23914"},"products":["https://github.com/curl/curl"],"published":"2023-02-23","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Negotiate ambient user conn reuse","id":"CVE-2026-19931","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-09-06"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"HTTP/2 stream-dependency tree UAF","id":"CVE-2026-10536","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-07-03"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"cross-origin Digest auth state leak","id":"CVE-2026-11856","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-07-03"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"SASL double-free","id":"CVE-2026-8925","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-07-03"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"stale proxy password leak","id":"CVE-2026-9079","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-07-03"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Code injection in curl","id":"CVE-2016-4606","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-02-21"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-9953","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-03-12"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"yes","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-10-14","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Attackers can bypass HSTS protection in curl when parallel transfers overwrite the cache, allowing insecure HTTP connections.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-23915/"}
