CVE-2026-80229 - OpenSSL provider use-after-free

Brief

CVE ID : CVE-2026-80229

Description : When performing transfers via libcurl’s multi interface, pooled TLS connections can outlive their originating easy handles.

In OpenSSL 3 provider configurations, libcurl attaches an allocated library context to the easy handle's state and passes it to OpenSSL without acquiring an ownership reference; destroying the easy handle prematurely frees this context while the active connection retains a dangling pointer, leading to a heap-use-after-free upon subsequent I/O or post-handshake operations.
