curl maintainer Daniel Stenberg said that from October 26, low and medium-severity vulnerability reports will be filed publicly in the project's GitHub repository, with private handling reserved for high and critical flaws. He cited an "avalanche" of reports, many AI-generated, noting that over 90% of submissions are assessed below HIGH and key maintainers are overloaded.
