libcurl: reused FTP control conn via session when CURLOPT_USE_SSL=NONE
CVE-2026-86411 Published on October 20, 2026
FTP connection reuse inherits client-certificate
An `ftp://` transfer configured with `CURLUSESSL_NONE` can reuse a pooled FTP
control connection that a previous easy handle upgraded with `STARTTLS` and
authenticated using a client certificate. The second handle performs neither a
new TLS handshake nor a new FTP login, so the server continues to authorize it
under the first handle's certificate identity.
