Azure Linux 3.0 Security Update: curl / mysql (CVE-2025-0167)

low Nessus Plugin ID 234307

Synopsis

The remote Azure Linux host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The version of curl / mysql installed on the remote Azure Linux 3.0 host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the CVE-2025-0167 advisory.

- When asked to use a `.netrc` file for credentials **and** to follow HTTP redirects, curl could leak the password used for the first host to the followed-to host under certain circumstances. This flaw only manifests itself if the netrc file has a `default` entry that omits both login and password. A rare circumstance. (CVE-2025-0167)

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

Solution

Update the affected packages.
