libcurl can in some circumstances reuse the wrong connection when asked to do an Negotiate-authenticated HTTP or HTTPS request.
libcurl features a pool of recent connections so that subsequent requests can reuse an existing connection to avoid overhead.
When reusing a connection a range of criterion must first be met. Due to a logical error in the code, a request that was issued by an application could wrongfully reuse an existing connection to the same server that was authenticated using different credentials. One underlying reason being that Negotiate sometimes authenticates connections and not requests, contrary to how HTTP is designed to work.
An application that allows Negotiate authentication to a server (that responds
wanting Negotiate) with user1:password1 and then does another operation to
the same server also using Negotiate but with user2:password2 (while the
previous connection is still alive) - the second request wrongly reused the
same connection and since it t

When reusing a connection a range of criterion must first be met. Due to a logical error in the code, a request that was issued by an application could wrongfully reuse an existing connection to the same server that was authenticated using different credentials. One underlying reason being that Negotiate sometimes authenticates *connections* and not *requests*, contrary to how HTTP is designed to work. An application that allows Negotiate authentication to a server (that responds wanting Negotiate) with `user1:password1` and then does another operation to the same server also using Negotiate but with `user2:password2` (while the previous connection is still alive) - the second request wrongly reused the same connection and since it t...
A flaw was found in curl. When an application uses libcurl to make multiple Negotiate-authenticated HTTP or HTTPS requests to the same server with different credentials, libcurl may incorrectly reuse an existing connection. This logical error can cause a subsequent request to be sent using the authentication of a previous user, leading to an authentication bypass.
