How to fix?

Upgrade Ubuntu:26.10 curl to version 8.20.0-2ubuntu11.1 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 Ubuntu. See How to fix? for Ubuntu:26.10 relevant fixed versions and status.

By permanently omitting the final control-response line, a malicious FTP, IMAP, POP3, or SMTP server can exploit libcurl and completely bypass its configured transfer timeout mechanism, indefinitely blocking all concurrent transfers bound to the same multi-handle.
