Disclaimer: Community trackers are created by Red Hat Product Security team on a best effort basis. Package maintainers are required to ascertain if the flaw indeed affects their package, before starting the update process.

When reusing a libcurl handle for sequential transfers driven by
environment-variable proxy configuration, libcurl fails to clear the proxy
authentication state between requests. Specifically, if the initial transfer
authenticates against `proxyA` using Digest auth, a subsequent transfer routed
through `proxyB` erroneously leaks the `Proxy-Authorization:` header intended
solely for `proxyA`.
