A flaw was found in libcurl. This vulnerability allows for information disclosure when a custom `Host:` header is used in an initial HTTP request, and a subsequent request reuses the same connection without specifying a new `Host:` header. This can lead to libcurl incorrectly sending cookies intended for the first host to the second host, resulting in a cookie leak. This issue is categorized as an Origin Validation Error (CWE-346). Exploitation typically requires specific debugging configurations.
