Summary
[none]
Details

A vulnerability in libcurl caused the HTTP Referer: header to persist even when explicitly cleared. While the documentation states that passing NULL to CURLOPT_REFERER suppresses the header, the option failed to clear the internal state. As a result the previous referrer string was erroneously reused and sent in subsequent requests, potentially leaking sensitive information to unintended servers.
