The function https_getsock was only implemented properly when USE_SSLEAY
or USE_GNUTLS is defined, but it is also necessary for USE_SCHANNEL.
The problem occurs when Curl_read_plain or Curl_write_plain returns
CURLE_AGAIN. In that case CURL_OK is returned to the multi-interface an
the used socket is set to state CURL_POLL_REMOVE and the easy-state is
set to CURLM_STATE_PROTOCONNECT. This is fine, because later the socket
should be set to CURL_POLL_IN or CURL_POLL_OUT via multi_getsock. That's
where https_getsock is called and doesn't return any sockets.
The code was printing a warning when SNI was set up successfully. Oops.
Printing the cipher number in verbose mode was something only TLS/SSL
programmers might understand, so I had it print the name of the cipher,
just like in the OpenSSL code. That'll be at least a little bit easier
to understand. The SecureTransport API doesn't have a method of getting
a string from a cipher like OpenSSL does, so I had to generate the
strings manually.
When doing CONNECT requests, libcurl must make sure the connection is
alive as much as possible. NTLM requires it and it is generally good for
other cases as well.
NTLM over CONNECT requests has been broken since this regression I
introduced in my CONNECT cleanup commits that started with 41b0237834,
included since 7.25.0.

Allow NTLM authentication when building using SecureTransport (Darwin) for SSL.
This uses CommonCrypto, a cryptography library that ships with all versions of

less-common cyphers and doesn't have a big number data structure.
Before commit 2dded8fedb (dec 2010) there was logic that used

Increase decrypted and encrypted cache buffers using limitted
doubling strategy. More information on the mailinglist:
http://curl.haxx.se/mail/lib-2012-06/0255.html
It updates the two remaining reallocations that have already been there
and fixes the other one to use the same "do we need to increase the
buffer"-condition as the other two. CURL_SCHANNEL_BUFFER_STEP_SIZE was
renamed to CURL_SCHANNEL_BUFFER_FREE_SIZE since that is actually what it
is now. Since we don't know how much more data we are going to read
during the handshake, CURL_SCHANNEL_BUFFER_FREE_SIZE is used as the
minimum free space required in the buffer for the next operation.
CURL_SCHANNEL_BUFFER_STEP_SIZE was used for that before, too, but since
we don't have a step size now, the define was renamed.
Process extra data buffer before returning from schannel_connect_step2.
Without this change I've seen WinCE hang when schannel_connect_step2
returns and calls Curl_socket_ready.
If the encrypted handshake does not fit in the intial buffer (seen with
large certificate chain), increasing the encrypted data buffer is necessary.
Fixed warning in curl_schannel.c line 1215.
Implemented timeout loop in schannel_send while sending data. This
is as close as I think we can get to write buffering; I put a big
comment in to explain my thinking.
With some committer adjustments
Make the Schannel implementation use libcurl's default buffer size
for the initial received encrypted and decrypted data cache buffers.
The implementation still needs to handle more data since more data
might have already been received or decrypted during the handshake
or a read operation which needs to be cached for the next read.
curl_schannel.c - implemented graceful SSL shutdown. If we fail to
shutdown the connection gracefully, I've seen schannel try to use a
session ID for future connects and the server aborts the connection
during the handshake.
curl_schannel.c - auto certificate validation doesn't seem to work
right on CE. I added a method to perform the certificate validation
which uses CertGetCertificateChain and manually handles the result.
Coverity actually pointed out flawed logic in the previous call to
Curl_strntoupper() where the code used sizeof() of a pointer to pass in
a size argument. That code still worked since it only needed to
uppercase 4 letters. Still, the entire malloc/uppercase/free sequence
was pointless since the code has already matched the string once in the
condition that starts the block of code.
As spotted by Coverity, va_end() was not used previously. To make it
used I took away a bunch of return statements and made them into
assignments instead.
SSPI related code now compiles with ANSI and WCHAR versions of security

Version number is removed in order to make this info consistent with

SSPI and without SCHANNEL support.
Removed obsolete minor status variable and parameter of status function
which was never used or set at all. Also Curl_sspi_strerror does support
only one status and there is no need for a second sub status.
Added Windows SSPI version information to the curl version string when
SCHANNEL SSL is not enabled, as the version of the library should also

It is now correctly printed as the following:
SEC_E_WRONG_PRINCIPAL (0x80090322)
curl_sspi.c: Fallback to security function table version number
Instead of reporting an unknown version, the interface version is used.
curl_sspi.c: Removed SSPI/ version prefix from Curl_sspi_version
curl_schannel: Replaced static buffer sizes with defined names
curl_schannel.c: First brace when declaring functions on column 0
curl_schannel.c: Put the pointer sign directly at variable name
curl_schannel.c: Use structs directly instead of typedef'ed structs
curl_schannel.c: Removed space before opening brace
curl_schannel.c: Fixed lines being longer than 80 chars
Moved the error constant switch to curl_sspi.c and added two new helper
functions to curl_sspi.[ch] which either return the constant or a fully
translated message representing the SSPI security status.
Updated socks_sspi.c and curl_schannel.c to use the new functions.
Windows 2000 Professional: Schannel returns SEC_E_OK instead
of SEC_I_CONTEXT_EXPIRED. If the length of the output buffer
is zero and the first byte of the encrypted packet is 0x15,
the application can safely assume that the message was a
close_notify message and change the return value to
SEC_I_CONTEXT_EXPIRED.
Connection shutdown does not mean that there is no data to read
Correctly handle incomplete message and ask curl to re-read
Fixed buffer for decrypted being to small
Re-structured read condition to be more effective
Removed obsolete verbose messages
Changed memory reduction method to keep a minimum buffer of size 4096
Fixed warning: dereferencing pointer does break strict-aliasing rules
by using a union instead of separate pointer variables.
Internal union sockaddr_u could probably be moved to generic header.
Thanks to Paul Howarth for the hint about using unions for this.
Important for winbuild: Separate declaration of sockaddr_u pointer.
The pointer variable *sock cannot be declared and initialized right
after the union declaration. Therefore it has to be a separate statement.
Since Curl_pgrsDone() itself calls Curl_pgrsUpdate() which may return an
abort instruction or similar we need to return that info back and
subsequently properly handle return codes from Curl_pgrsDone() where
used.
(Spotted by a Coverity scan)
Previously it would use a 256 byte buffer and thus cut off very long
subject names. The limit is now upped to the receive buffer size, 16K.

Re-factored the smtp_state_*_resp() functions to 1) Match the constants
that were refactored in commit 00fddba672, 2) To be more readable and
3) To match their counterparties in pop3.c.
Corrected lines longer than 78 characters.
Removed unnecessary braces in smtp_state_helo_resp().
Introduced some comments in data sending functions.
Tidied up comments to match changes made in pop3.c.
Corrected lines longer than 78 characters.
Changed POP3_AUTH_FINAL to POP3_AUTH to match SMTP code now that the
AUTH command is no longer sent on its own.
Introduced some comments in data sending functions.
Another attempt at trying to rational code and comment style.
Added a service type parameter to Curl_sasl_create_digest_md5_message()
to allow the function to be used by different services rather than being
hard coded to "smtp".
Not all SASL enabled POP3 servers support the AUTH command on its own
when trying to detect the supported mechanisms. As such changed the
mechanism detection to use the CAPA command instead.
Because pop3_endofresp() is called for each line of data yet is not
passed the line and line length, so we have to use the data pointed to
by pp->linestart_resp which contains the whole packet, the mechanisms
were being detected in one call yet the function would be called for
each line of data.
Using curl with verbose mode enabled would show that one line of data
would be received in response to the AUTH command, before the AUTH
<mechanism> command was sent to the server and then the next few lines
of the original AUTH command would be displayed before the response from
the AUTH <mechanism> command. This would then cause problems when
parsing the CRAM-MD5 challenge data as extra data was contained in the
buffer.
Changed the parsing so that each line is checked for the mechanisms
and the function returns FALSE until the whole of the AUTH response has
been processed.
Previously it wasn't possible to connect to POP3 and not specify the
user name as a CURLE_ACCESS_DENIED error would be returned. This error
occurred because USER would be sent to the server with a blank user name
if no mailbox user was specified as the server would reply with -ERR.
This wasn't a problem prior to the 7.26.0 release but with the
introduction of custom commands the user and/or application developer
might want to issue a CAPA command without having to log in as a
specific mailbox user.
Additionally this fix won't send the newly introduced AUTH command if no
user name is specified.
Rather than encoding the password message itself the
smtp_state_authpasswd_resp() function now delegates the work to the same
function that smtp_state_authlogin_resp() and smtp_authenticate() use
when constructing the encoded user name.
In preparation for moving to the SASL module re-factored the
smtp_auth_login_user() function to smtp_auth_login() so that it can be
used for both user names and passwords as sending both of these under
the login authentication mechanism is the same.
The POP3 protocol doesn't really have the concept of error codes and
uses +, +OK and -ERR in response to commands to indicate continue,
success and error.
The AUTH command is one of those commands that requires multiple pieces
of data to be sent to the server where the server will respond with + as
part of the handshaking. This meant changing the values before
continuing with the next stage of adding authentication support.
Changed the order of the state machine to match the order of actual
events.
Reworked some comments and function parameter positioning that I missed
the other day.
Added support for detecting the supported SASL authentication mechanisms
via the AUTH command. There are two ways of detecting them, either by
using the AUTH command, that will return -ERR if not supported or by
using the CAPA command which will return SASL and the list of mechanisms
if supported, not include SASL if SASL authentication is not supported
or -ERR if the CAPA command is not supported. As such it seems simpler
to use the AUTH command and fallback to normal clear text authentication
if the the command is not supported.
Additionally updated the test cases to return -ERR when the AUTH command
is encountered. Additional test cases will be added when support for the
individual authentication mechanisms is added.
Moved EOB definition into header file.
Switched the logic around in pop3_endofresp() to allow for the
introduction of auth-mechanism detection.
Repositioned second and third function variables where they will fit
within the 78 character line limit.
Tidied up some comments.
Move the SMTP_AUTH constants into a separate header file in
preparation for adding SASL based authentication to POP3 as the two
protocols will need to share them.
Due to the result code being reset to CURLE_OK when smtp_dophase_done()
was called, postdata would incorrectly be sent to the server when the
MAIL FROM or RCPT command was rejected.
As such, libcurl would return the wrong result code from performing the
operation and additionally set CURLINFO_RESPONSE_CODE to be that
returned by the postdata command.

In nettle/md5.h, md5_init and md5_update are defined as macros to
nettle_md5_init and nettle_md5_update respectively. This causes
error when using MD5_params.md5_init and md5_update. This patch
renames these members as md5_init_func and md5_update_func to
avoid name conflict. For completeness, MD5_params.md5_final was
also renamed as md5_final_func.
The changes in curl_ntlm_core.c is conversion error and fixed by
casting to proper type.
A dot character at the beginning of a line would not be escaped to a
double dot as required by RFC-2821, instead it would be deleted by the
mail server. Please see section 4.5.2 of the RFC for more information.
Note: This fix also simplifies the detection of repeated CRLF.CRLF
combinations, such as CRLF.CRLF.CRLF, a little rather than having to
advance the eob counter to 2.
Roman Mamedov spotted (in
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=670126) that curl would
not complain when given a URL with an IPv6 numerical address without
brackets. It would simply cut off the last ":[hex]" part and thus not
work correctly.
That's a URL using an illegal syntax and now libcurl will instead return
a clear error code and error message detailing the error.
The above mentioned bug report claims this to be a regression but
libcurl does not guarantee functionality when given URLs that aren't
following the URL spec (RFC3986 mostly). I consider the fact that it
used to handle this differently a mere coincidence.
When doing a chunked-encoded POST with -d (CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS) and the
size of the POST was zero length, it made libcurl first send a zero
chunk and then the terminating one. This could confuse a receiver and it
should rather just send the terminating chunk as it does with this fix.
Test case 1333 is added to verify.

The possibility of a makefile needing an include path adjustment exists.
Curl_socket returns CURLE_COULDNT_CONNECT when the opensocket callback

Reworked the command sending from two specific LIST and RETR command
functions into a single command based function as well as the two
associated response handlers into a generic command handler.
If an empty string is passed to CURLOPT_SSH_PUBLIC_KEYFILE, libcurl will
pass no public key to libssh2 which then tries to compute it from the
private key. This is known to work when libssh2 1.4.0+ is linked against
OpenSSL.
This change replaces RFC 2818 based hostname check in OpenSSL build with
RFC 6125 [1] based one.
The hostname check in RFC 2818 is ambiguous and each project implements
it in the their own way and they are slightly different. I check curl,
gnutls, Firefox and Chrome and they are all different.
I don't think there is a bug in current implementation of hostname
check. But it is not as strict as the modern browsers do. Currently,
curl allows multiple wildcard character '*' and it matches '.'. (as
described in the comment in ssluse.c).
Firefox implementation is also based on RFC 2818 but it only allows at
most one wildcard character and it must be in the left-most label in the
pattern and the wildcard must not be followed by any character in the
label.[2] Chromium implementation is based on RFC 6125 as my patch does.
Firefox and Chromium both require wildcard in the left-most label in the
presented identifier.
This patch is more strict than the current implementation, so there may
be some cases where old curl works but new one does not. But at the same
time I think it is good practice to follow the modern browsers do and
follow the newer RFC.

With FOLLOWLOCATION enabled. When a 3xx page is downloaded and the
download size was known (like with a Content-Length header), but the
subsequent URL (transfered after the 3xx page) was chunked encoded, then
the previous "known download size" would linger and cause the progress
meter to get incorrect information, ie the former value would remain
being sent in. This could easily result in downloads that were WAY
larger than "expected" and would cause >100% outputs with the curl

The commit e650dbde86 that stripped off [brackets] from ipv6-only host

When this option is specified and an authentication mechanism is used
to communicate with the mail server then the AUTH parameter will be
included in the MAIL FROM command. This is particularly useful when the
calling program is acting as a relay in a trusted environment and

server to specify the address of the mailbox that was used to
authenticate and send the original email.

- CURLOPT_TCP_KEEPIDLE: idle time before sending first probe
- CURLOPT_TCP_KEEPINTVL: delay between successive probes
While not all operating systems support the TCP_KEEPIDLE and
TCP_KEEPINTVL knobs, the library will still allow these options to be
set by clients, silently ignoring the values.

Previously the code would create a dummy socket while resolving just to
have curl_multi_fdset() return something but the non-win32 version
doesn't do it this way and the creation and use of a socket that isn't
made with the common create-socket callback can be confusing to apps
using the multi_socket API etc.
This change removes the dummy socket and thus will cause
curl_multi_fdset() to return with maxfd == -1 more often.
