Does this matter?

High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (2.47%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.

Description

The curl URL parser wrongly accepts percent-encoded URL separators like '/'when decoding the host name part of a URL, making it a *different* URL usingthe wrong host name when it is later retrieved.For example, a URL like `http://example.com%2F127.0.0.1/`, would be allowed bythe parser and get transposed into `http://example.com/127.0.0.1/`. This flawcan be used to circumvent filters, checks and more.
