libcurl might reuse OAUTH2-authenticated connections without properly making sure that the connection was authenticated with the same credentials as set for this transfer. This could lead to an authentication bypass, either by mistake or by a malicious actor. |

libcurl might reuse OAUTH2-authenticated connections without properly making sure that the connection was authenticated with the same credentials as set for this transfer. This affects SASL-enabled protocols: SMPTP(S), IMAP(S), POP3(S) and LDAP(S) (openldap only). |

libcurl maintains a pool of live connections after a transfer has completed (sometimes called the connection cache). This pool of connections is then gone through when a new transfer is requested and if there is a live connection available that can be reused, it is preferred instead of creating a new one. |

Due to this security vulnerability, a connection that is successfully created and authenticated with a user name + OAUTH2 bearer could subsequently be erroneously reused even for user + [other OAUTH2 bearer], even though that might not even be a valid bearer. This could lead to an authentication bypass, either by mistake or by a malicious actor. |
