A flaw was found in curl. This vulnerability allows a malicious server to bypass public key pinning when curl is built with the wolfSSL backend. By presenting a specially crafted certificate with a manipulated validity length field, the attacker can trick curl into improperly re-parsing the certificate and authorizing an invalid key during the Transport Layer Security (TLS) handshake.
