Description:

   This update for curl fixes the following issues:

     and sets the 'CURLOPT_CONNECT_ONLY' option, might in rare circumstances

     libcurl will pick and use the wrong connection and instead pick another
     one the application has created since then. [bsc#1175109, CVE-2020-8231]
