Is this anything for Moodle (users) to worry about...

https://github.com/curl/curl/discussions/12026

I'm assuming, "keep on top of PHP updates and make sure you are running a supported version (of PHP)" will be the answer.

Saw something in Google about that briefly and said fix was coming this week! 微笑

They're releasing libcurl (and curl) on the 11th. It'll then need to find its way into a PHP build for your favorite distro.

They're being very coy about what the problem is. The word is that it's something nasty.

More info on issue:

Just scanned my Mac ...besides OS there is HomeBrew and MAMP
CentOS 7 server (yeah, I know): only python2

Above link did say to fix/patch as 'normal' and ASAP.

For others who might be reading this .... DON'T PANIC!

And, if php curl not needed for moodle to function, one could temp disable loading of curl extension via ini file.
