The Centos security team deemed this advisory irrelevant for Centos:6.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream curl package and not the curl package as distributed by Centos.
When asking curl to use a .netrc file to find credentials and at the same
time specifying a URL with a username (without a password), like
https://user@example.com/, curl could wrongly get and use the password for
another user set in the .netrc file for that host if such a one exists and
there is no match for the specified user.
