The issue is related to the implementation of the HSTS (HTTP Strict Transport Security) mechanism in the cURL utility. It could be bypassed if the hostname in the given URL used a trailing dot while not using one when it built the HSTS cache, or the other way around. This could allow an attacker to intercept traffic and gain unauthorized access to protected information. The estimated number of potentially affected devices worldwide is not available. There is no information about real-world incidents where this issue was exploited.
