Overview
About vulnerability
When asked to use a .netrc file for credentials and to follow HTTP
redirects, curl could leak the password used for the first host to the
followed-to host under certain circumstances.
This flaw only manifests itself if the netrc file has a default entry that
omits both login and password. A rare circumstance.
