No vendor fix yet — apply a workaround or compensating control (WAF / firewall / segmentation) and watch for a patch.

When curl is told to use the Certificate Status Request TLS extension, often referred to as *OCSP stapling*, to verify that the server certificate is valid, it fails to detect OCSP problems and instead wrongly consider the response as fine.
