Echo: curl-7.69.1: security update to 7.69.1+e2

low Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 478438

Description

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

 - libcurl keeps previously used connections in a connection pool for subsequenttransfers to reuse, if one of
 them matches the setup.Due to errors in the logic, the config matching function did not take 'issuercert'
 into account and it compared the involved paths *case insensitively*,which could lead to libcurl reusing
 wrong connections.File paths are, or can be, case sensitive on many systems but not all, and caneven vary
 depending on used file systems.The comparison also didn't include the 'issuer cert' which a transfer can
 setto qualify how to verify the server certificate. (CVE-2021-22924)

Solution

Update the curl-7.69.1 library and its related packages to version 7.69.1+e2 or later.
