CURLOPT_SOCKS_PROXY -> CURLOPT_PRE_PROXY
Added the corresponding --preroxy command line option. Sets a SOCKS
proxy to connect to _before_ connecting to a HTTP(S) proxy.
... the newly introduced CURLOPT_SOCKS_PROXY is special and should be
asked for specially. (Needs new code.)
Unified proxy type to a single variable in the config struct.
This was added as part of the SOCKS+HTTPS proxy merge but there's no
need to support this as we prefer to have the protocol specified as a
prefix instead.
Prior to this change we depended on errno if strtol could not perform a
conversion. POSIX says EINVAL *may* be set. Some implementations like
Microsoft's will not set it if there's no conversion.
Ref: https://github.com/curl/curl/commit/ee4f7660#commitcomment-19658189
Adds access to the effectively used protocol/scheme to both libcurl and
curl, both in string and numeric (CURLPROTO_*) form.
Note that the string form will be uppercase, as it is just the internal
string.
As these strings are declared internally as const, and all other strings
returned by curl_easy_getinfo() are de-facto const as well, string
handling in getinfo.c got const-ified.
Closes#1137
* HTTPS proxies:
An HTTPS proxy receives all transactions over an SSL/TLS connection.
Once a secure connection with the proxy is established, the user agent
uses the proxy as usual, including sending CONNECT requests to instruct
the proxy to establish a [usually secure] TCP tunnel with an origin
server. HTTPS proxies protect nearly all aspects of user-proxy
communications as opposed to HTTP proxies that receive all requests
(including CONNECT requests) in vulnerable clear text.
With HTTPS proxies, it is possible to have two concurrent _nested_
SSL/TLS sessions: the "outer" one between the user agent and the proxy
and the "inner" one between the user agent and the origin server
(through the proxy). This change adds supports for such nested sessions
as well.
A secure connection with a proxy requires its own set of the usual SSL
options (their actual descriptions differ and need polishing, see TODO):
--proxy-cacert FILE CA certificate to verify peer against
--proxy-capath DIR CA directory to verify peer against
--proxy-cert CERT[:PASSWD] Client certificate file and password
--proxy-cert-type TYPE Certificate file type (DER/PEM/ENG)
--proxy-ciphers LIST SSL ciphers to use
--proxy-crlfile FILE Get a CRL list in PEM format from the file
--proxy-insecure Allow connections to proxies with bad certs
--proxy-key KEY Private key file name
--proxy-key-type TYPE Private key file type (DER/PEM/ENG)
--proxy-pass PASS Pass phrase for the private key
--proxy-ssl-allow-beast Allow security flaw to improve interop
--proxy-sslv2 Use SSLv2
--proxy-sslv3 Use SSLv3
--proxy-tlsv1 Use TLSv1
--proxy-tlsuser USER TLS username
--proxy-tlspassword STRING TLS password
--proxy-tlsauthtype STRING TLS authentication type (default SRP)
All --proxy-foo options are independent from their --foo counterparts,
except --proxy-crlfile which defaults to --crlfile and --proxy-capath
which defaults to --capath.
Curl now also supports %{proxy_ssl_verify_result} --write-out variable,
similar to the existing %{ssl_verify_result} variable.
Supported backends: OpenSSL, GnuTLS, and NSS.
* A SOCKS proxy + HTTP/HTTPS proxy combination:
If both --socks* and --proxy options are given, Curl first connects to
the SOCKS proxy and then connects (through SOCKS) to the HTTP or HTTPS
proxy.
TODO: Update documentation for the new APIs and --proxy-* options.
Look for "Added in 7.XXX" marks.
We're mostly saying just "curl" in lower case these days so here's a big
cleanup to adapt to this reality. A few instances are left as the
project could still formally be considered called cURL.
As they are after all part of the public API. Saves space and reduces
complexity. Remove the strcase defines from the curlx_ family.

These two public functions have been mentioned as deprecated since a
very long time but since they are still part of the API and ABI we need
to keep them around.
... to make it less likely that we forget that the function actually
does case insentive compares. Also replaced several invokes of the
function with a plain strcmp when case sensitivity is not an issue (like
comparing with "-").
RFC7512 provides a standard method to reference certificates in PKCS#11
tokens, by means of a URI starting 'pkcs11:'.
We're working on fixing various applications so that whenever they would
have been able to use certificates from a file, users can simply insert
a PKCS#11 URI instead and expect it to work. This expectation is now a
part of the Fedora packaging guidelines, for example.
This doesn't work with cURL because of the way that the colon is used
to separate the certificate argument from the passphrase. So instead of
curl -E 'pkcs11:manufacturer=piv_II;id=%01' …
I instead need to invoke cURL with the colon escaped, like this:
curl -E 'pkcs11\:manufacturer=piv_II;id=%01' …
This is suboptimal because we want *consistency* — the URI should be
usable in place of a filename anywhere, without having strange
differences for different applications.
This patch therefore disables the processing in parse_cert_parameter()
when the string starts with 'pkcs11:'. It means you can't pass a
passphrase with an unescaped PKCS#11 URI, but there's no need to do so
because RFC7512 allows a PIN to be given as a 'pin-value' attribute in
the URI itself.
Also, if users are already using RFC7512 URIs with the colon escaped as
in the above example — even providing a passphrase for cURL to handling
instead of using a pin-value attribute, that will continue to work
because their string will start 'pkcs11\:' and won't match the check.
What *does* break with this patch is the extremely unlikely case that a
user has a file which is in the local directory and literally named
just "pkcs11", and they have a passphrase on it. If that ever happened,
the user would need to refer to it as './pkcs11:<passphrase>' instead.
After a few wasted hours hunting down the reason for slowness during a
TLS handshake that turned out to be because of TCP_NODELAY not being
set, I think we have enough motivation to toggle the default for this
option. We now enable TCP_NODELAY by default and allow applications to
switch it off.
This also makes --tcp-nodelay unnecessary, but --no-tcp-nodelay can be
used to disable it.

Bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1340757
- Move the existing scheme check from tool_operate.
In the case of --remote-header-name we want to parse Content-disposition
for a filename, but only if the scheme is http or https. A recent
adjustment 0dc4d8e was made to account for schemeless URLs however it's
not 100% accurate. To remedy that I've moved the scheme check to the
header callback, since at that point the library has already determined
the scheme.
Bug: https://github.com/curl/curl/issues/760
Reported-by: Kai Noda
It does open up a miniscule risk that one of the other protocols that
libcurl could use would send back a Content-Disposition header and then
curl would act on it even if not HTTP.
A future mitigation for this risk would be to allow the callback to ask
libcurl which protocol is being used.
