In curl before 7.86.0, the HSTS check could be bypassed to trick it into staying with HTTP. Using its HSTS support, curl can be instructed to use HTTPS directly (instead of using an insecure cleartext HTTP step) even when HTTP is provided in the URL. This mechanism could be bypassed if the host name in the given URL uses IDN characters that get replaced with ASCII counterparts as part of the IDN conversion, e.g., using the character UTF-8 U+3002 (IDEOGRAPHIC FULL STOP) instead of the common ASCII full stop of U+002E (.). The earliest affected version is 7.77.0 2021-05-26.

A new LTS Firmware release fixes known vulnerabilities in used open-source libraries. In addition, the following improvements have been implemented: HMI - Hardening against DoS attacks. - Hardening against memory leak problems in case of network attacks. WBM - Umlauts in the password of the 'User Manager' were not handled correctly. The password rule for upper and lower case was not followed. This could lead to unintentionally weaker passwords.- Hardening of WBM against Cross-Site-Scripting. User Manager - In security notifications 'SecurityToken' was always displayed as '0000000' when creating or modifying users.- Hardening of Trust and Identity Stores.
