How to fix?

Upgrade Amazon-Linux:2023 libcurl-debuginfo to version 0:8.15.0-4.amzn2023.0.1 or higher.
This issue was patched in ALAS2023-2025-1351.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream libcurl-debuginfo package and not the libcurl-debuginfo package as distributed by Amazon-Linux. See How to fix? for Amazon-Linux:2023 relevant fixed versions and status.

When asked to both use a .netrc file for credentials and to follow HTTP redirects, curl could leak the password used for the first host to the followed-to host under certain circumstances.

This flaw only manifests itself if the netrc file has an entry that matches the redirect target hostname but the entry either omits just the password or omits both login and password.
