• Re: [SECURITY] [DSA 2798-2] curl security update (2/2)

    From Johannes Stummer@1:229/2 to All on Wed Nov 20 23:40:01 2013
    [continued from previous message]

    For the testing (jessie) and unstable (sid) distributions, the curl<br>
    command line tool behaves as expected with the --insecure option.<br>

    For reference the original advisory text follows.<br>

    Scott Cantor discovered that curl, a file retrieval tool, would disable<br>
    the CURLOPT_SSLVERIFYHOST check when the CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER setting<br>
    was disabled. �This would also disable ssl certificate host name checks<br> when it should have only disabled verification of the certificate trust<br> chain.<br>

    The default configuration for the curl package is not affected by this<br> issue since CURLOPT_SSLVERIFYPEER is enabled by default.<br>

    For the oldstable distribution (squeeze), this problem has been fixed in<br> version <a href="tel:7.21.0-2.1" value="+43721021">7.21.0-2.1</a>+squeeze5.<br>

    For the stable distribution (wheezy), this problem has been fixed in<br> version 7.26.0-1+wheezy5.<br>

    For the testing (jessie) and unstable (sid) distributions, this problem<br>
    has been fixed in version 7.33.0-1.<br>

    We recommend that you upgrade your curl packages.<br>
