libcurl would reuse a previously created connection even when some mTLS config
related option had been changed that should have prohibited reuse.
libcurl keeps previously used connections in a connection pool for subsequent
transfers to reuse if one of them matches the setup. However, some TLS
settings related to client certificates were left out from the configuration
match checks, making them match too easily. In particular options related to
the private key.

This week has the usual smell of prod on fire and nobody wanting to admit who left the door open — old creds still working, trusted apps doing sketchy crap, browser tricks jumping the fence, and “normal” workflows turning into phishing pipes because apparently email was not enough hell already.
The worst part is how cheap some of it feels. Not elite. Not cinematic. Just stale secrets, fake updates, lazy trust, and random boxes quietly becoming someone else’s infrastructure. Same internet, fresh headache. L
