We are cutting the release cycle short and will release curl 8.4.0 on October 11, including a fix for a severity HIGH CVE. Buckle up.

… But this time actually the worst security problem found in curl in a long time

https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2023-38545

I want to thank the curl developers for taking security issues seriously to keep me safe.

Now I’m going to go pipe another curl script output directly into a sudo bash command. /s

We need a version of /s for “I’m not actually doing this right now… but we know I still will…”
