CVE-2024-8096  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade SLES:15.6 curl to version 8.6.0-150600.4.6.1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream curl package and not the curl package as distributed by SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:15.6 relevant fixed versions and status.

When curl is told to use the Certificate Status Request TLS extension, often referred to as OCSP stapling, to verify that the server certificate is valid, it might fail to detect some OCSP problems and instead wrongly consider the response as fine. If the returned status reports another error than 'revoked' (like for example 'unauthorized') it is not treated as a bad certficate.
