A similar request was made last year for libsocialweb connecting
to Twitter, and it seems to be doing the same to Flickr now
(probably has been all this time).

Same situation: opens an HTTP (non-SSL) connection to Flickr when
no Flickr account is configured, and without the user's permission
or knowledge.

Could a CVE be assigned to this (or has one been assigned
already)?

Request for the Twitter issue is here (for reference):

http://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2011/11/09/3

and the Red Hat bug:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=863206

Thanks.


Please use CVE-2012-4511 for this issue.
