NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream libcurl-devel package and not the libcurl-devel package as distributed by Oracle.
See How to fix? for Oracle:8 relevant fixed versions and status.
This flaw allows a malicious HTTP server to set "super cookies" in curl that are then passed back to more origins than what is otherwise allowed or possible. This allows a site to set cookies that then would get sent to different and unrelated sites and domains.
It could do this by exploiting a mixed case flaw in curl's function that
verifies a given cookie domain against the Public Suffix List (PSL). For
example a cookie could be set with domain=co.UK when the URL used a lower
case hostname curl.co.uk, even though co.uk is listed as a PSL domain.
