CVE-2024-39894 OpenSSH 9.5 through 9.7 before 9.8 sometimes allows timing attacks against echo-off password entry (e.g. for su and Sudo) because of an ObscureKeystrokeTiming logic error. Similarly other timing attacks against keystroke entry could occur.

libcurl performs transfers. In its API an application creates “easy handles”
that are the individual handles for single transfers.

libcurl provides a function call that duplicates en easy handle called
[curl_easy_duphandle](https://curl.se/libcurl/c/curl_easy_duphandle.html).

If a transfer has cookies enabled when the handle is duplicated the
cookie-enable state is also cloned – but without cloning the actual
cookies. If the source handle did not read any cookies from a specific file on
disk the cloned version of the handle would instead store the file name as
`none` (using the four ASCII letters no quotes).

Subsequent use of the cloned handle that does not explicitly set a source to
load cookies from would then inadvertently load cookies from a file named
`none` – if such a file exists and is readable in the current directory of the
