Echo: curl: security update to 1:8.22.0-1+e1curl-8.17.0: security update to 8.17.0+e1

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 476128

Description

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

 - When performing transfers via libcurl’s multi interface, pooled TLS connections can outlive their
 originating easy handles. In OpenSSL 3 provider configurations, libcurl attaches an allocated library
 context to the easy handle's state and passes it to OpenSSL without acquiring an ownership reference;
 destroying the easy handle prematurely frees this context while the active connection retains a dangling
 pointer, leading to a heap-use-after-free upon subsequent I/O or post-handshake operations.
 (CVE-2026-80229)

Solution

Update the curl library and its related packages to version 1:8.22.0-1+e1 or later.
