CVE-2017-2628 (opens in a new tab)How to fix?
Upgrade RHEL:6 libcurl to version 0:7.19.7-53.el6_9 or higher.
This issue was patched in RHSA-2017:0847.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream libcurl package and not the libcurl package as distributed by RHEL.
See How to fix? for RHEL:6 relevant fixed versions and status.
curl, as shipped in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 before version 7.19.7-53, did not correctly backport the fix for CVE-2015-3148 because it did not reflect the fact that the HAVE_GSSAPI define was meanwhile substituted by USE_HTTP_NEGOTIATE. This issue was introduced in RHEL 6.7 and affects RHEL 6 curl only.
