UBUNTU-CVE-2026-94266 (CVE-2026-94266)

Details
libcurl could accidentally return a URL for curl_easy_getinfo's CURLINFO_EFFECTIVE_URL option containing credentials, even though neither the URL provided to libcurl nor the redirected URL did. The curl tool exposes the same information using the command line option --write-out '%{url_effective}'. This credential leak can happen when curl retrieves credentials from a .netrc file.
Severity

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the
vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base
model, served locally by ML-Gateway.
They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
The approach is described in our paper Mapping CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK Techniques: A Curated Gold-Set Classifier and the Limits of LLM-Assisted Label Expansion.
