How to fix?

Upgrade Centos:8 mecab-ipadic to version 0:2.7.0.20070801-17.module+el8.10.0+22857+7f331edd or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream mecab-ipadic package and not the mecab-ipadic package as distributed by Centos. See How to fix? for Centos:8 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.
