In curl and libcurl 7.52.0 to and including 7.53.1, libcurl would attempt to resume a TLS session even if the client certificate had changed. That is unacceptable since a server by specification is allowed to skip the client certificate check on resume, and may instead use the old identity which was established by the previous certificate (or no certificate). libcurl supports by default the use of TLS session id/ticket to resume previous TLS sessions to speed up subsequent TLS handshakes. They are used when for any reason an existing TLS connection couldn't be kept alive to make the next handshake faster. This flaw is a regression and identical to CVE-2016-5419 reported on August 3rd 2016, but affecting a different version range.

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

The remote NewStart CGSL host, running version MAIN 6.02, has curl packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

  - The redirect implementation in curl and libcurl 5.11 through 7.19.3, when CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION is     enabled, accepts arbitrary Location values, which might allow remote HTTP servers to (1) trigger arbitrary     requests to intranet servers, (2) read or overwrite arbitrary files via a redirect to a file: URL, or (3)     execute arbitrary commands via a redirect to an scp: URL. (CVE-2009-0037)

  - The Curl_input_negotiate function in http_negotiate.c in libcurl 7.10.6 through 7.21.6, as used in curl     and other products, always performs credential delegation during GSSAPI authentication, which allows     remote servers to impersonate clients via GSSAPI requests. (CVE-2011-2192)

  - curl and libcurl 7.2x before 7.24.0 do not properly consider special characters during extraction of a     pathname from a URL, which allows remote attackers to conduct data-injection attacks via a crafted URL, as     demonstrated by a CRLF injection attack on the (1) IMAP, (2) POP3, or (3) SMTP protocol. (CVE-2012-0036)

  - Stack-based buffer overflow in the Curl_sasl_create_digest_md5_message function in lib/curl_sasl.c in curl     and libcurl 7.26.0 through 7.28.1, when negotiating SASL DIGEST-MD5 authentication, allows remote     attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a long string in     the realm parameter in a (1) POP3, (2) SMTP or (3) IMAP message. (CVE-2013-0249)

  - The tailMatch function in cookie.c in cURL and libcurl before 7.30.0 does not properly match the path     domain when sending cookies, which allows remote attackers to steal cookies via a matching suffix in the     domain of a URL. (CVE-2013-1944)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

There are packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities referenced in the following CVEs:

  - The ourWriteOut function in tool_writeout.c in curl 7.53.1 might allow physically proximate attackers to
    obtain sensitive information from process memory in opportunistic circumstances by reading a workstation
    screen during use of a --write-out argument ending in a '%' character, which leads to a heap-based buffer
    over-read. (CVE-2017-7407)

    range. (CVE-2017-7468)

There are packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities referenced in the following CVEs:

  - curl before 7.53.0 has an incorrect TLS Certificate Status Request extension feature that asks for a fresh
    proof of the server's certificate's validity in the code that checks for a test success or failure. It
    ends up always thinking there's valid proof, even when there is none or if the server doesn't support the
    TLS extension in question. This could lead to users not detecting when a server's certificate goes invalid
    or otherwise be mislead that the server is in a better shape than it is in reality. This flaw also exists
    in the command line tool (--cert-status). (CVE-2017-2629)

  - The ourWriteOut function in tool_writeout.c in curl 7.53.1 might allow physically proximate attackers to
    obtain sensitive information from process memory in opportunistic circumstances by reading a workstation
    screen during use of a --write-out argument ending in a '%' character, which leads to a heap-based buffer

According to its self-reported version number, the remote pfSense install is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as stated in the referenced vendor advisories.

The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-201709-14 (cURL: Multiple vulnerabilities)

    Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in cURL. Please review the       CVE identifiers referenced below for details.
  Impact :

    Remote attackers could cause a Denial of Service condition, obtain       sensitive information, or bypass intended restrictions for TLS sessions.
  Workaround :

    There is no known workaround at this time.

The remote host is running a version of Mac OS X version 10.x prior to 10.12.6, and is affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

 - An overflow condition exists in the curl component in the 'dprintf_formatf()' function that is triggered when handling floating point conversion. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to cause a denial of service condition or the execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-9586)
 - A flaw exits in the curl component in the 'randit()' function within file lib/rand.c due to improper initialization of the 32-bit random value, which is used, for example, to generate Digest and NTLM authentication nonces, resulting in weaker cryptographic operations than expected. (CVE-2016-9594)
 - A flaw exists in the curl component in the 'allocate_conn()' function in lib/url.c when using the OCSP stapling feature for checking a X.509 certificate revocation status.

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Fedora update system website.
Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

It was discovered that curl incorrectly handled client certificates when resuming a TLS session. A remote attacker could use this to hijack a previously authenticated connection.

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

cURL security advisory :

libcurl would attempt to resume a TLS session even if the client certificate had changed. That is unacceptable since a server by specification is allowed to skip the client certificate check on resume, and may instead use the old identity which was established by the previous certificate (or no certificate).

libcurl supports by default the use of TLS session id/ticket to resume previous TLS sessions to speed up subsequent TLS handshakes. They are used when for any reason an existing TLS connection couldn't be kept alive to make the next handshake faster.

This flaw is a regression and identical to CVE-2016-5419 reported on August 3rd 2016, but affecting a different version range.
