As well as parsing the username and password from the URL, added support
for parsing the optional options part from the login details, to allow
the following supported URL format:
schema://username:password;options@example.com/path?q=foobar
This will only be used by IMAP, POP3 and SMTP at present but any
protocol that may be given login options in the URL will be able to
add support for them.
...instead of the 220 we otherwise expect.
Made the ftpserver.pl support sending a custom "welcome" and then
created test 1219 to verify this fix with such a 230 welcome.

The previously applied patch didnt work on Windows; we cant rely
on shell commands like 'echo' since they act diffently on each
platform and each shell.
In order to keep this script platform-independent the code must
only use pure Perl.
When doing PWD, there's a 257 response which apparently some servers
prefix with a comment before the path instead of after it as is
otherwise the norm.
Failing to parse this, several otherwise legitimate use cases break.

The OpenSSL pipe wrote to the final CA bundle file, but the encoded PEM
output wrote to a temporary file. Consequently, the OpenSSL output was
lost when the temp file was renamed to the final file at script finish
(overwriting the final file written earlier by openssl).
Patch posted to the list by Richard Michael (rmichael edgeofthenet org).
I noticed that aria2's SecureTransport code disables insecure ciphers such
as NULL, anonymous, IDEA, and weak-key ciphers used by SSLv3 and later.
That's a good idea, and now we do the same thing in order to prevent curl
from accessing a "secure" site that only negotiates insecure ciphersuites.
Previously it only compared credentials if the requested needle
connection wasn't using a proxy. This caused NTLM authentication
failures when using proxies as the authentication code wasn't send on
the connection where the challenge arrived.
Added test 1215 to verify: NTLM server authentication through a proxy
(This is a modified copy of test 67)
Since qsort implementations vary with regards to handling the order
of similiar elements, this change makes the internal sort function
more deterministic by comparing path length first, then domain length
and finally the cookie name. Spotted with testcase 62 on Windows.
When doing PORT and upload (STOR), this function needs to extract the
file descriptor for both connections so that it will respond immediately
when the server eventually connects back.
This flaw caused active connections to become unnecessary slow but they
would still often work due to the normal polling on a timeout. The bug
also would not occur if the server connected back very fast, like when
testing on local networks.

I am using curl_easy_setopt(CURLOPT_INTERFACE, "if!something") to force
transfers to use a particular interface but the transfer fails with
CURLE_INTERFACE_FAILED, "Failed binding local connection end" if the
interface I specify has no IPv6 address. The cause is as follows:
The remote hostname resolves successfully and has an IPv6 address and an
IPv4 address.
cURL attempts to connect to the IPv6 address first.
bindlocal (in lib/connect.c) fails because Curl_if2ip cannot find an
IPv6 address on the interface.
This is a fatal error in singleipconnect()
This change will make cURL try the next IP address in the list.
Also included are two changes related to IPv6 address scope:
- Filter the choice of address in Curl_if2ip to only consider addresses
with the same scope ID as the connection address (mismatched scope for
local and remote address does not result in a working connection).
- bindlocal was ignoring the scope ID of addresses returned by
Curl_if2ip . Now it uses them.

At some point recently we lost the default value for the easy handle's

The Microsoft knowledge-base article
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/823764 describes how to use SNDBUF to
overcome a performance shortcoming in winsock, but it doesn't apply to
Windows Vista and later versions. If the described SNDBUF magic is
applied when running on those more recent Windows versions, it seems to
instead have the reversed effect in many cases and thus make libcurl
perform less good on those systems.
This fix thus adds a run-time version-check that does the SNDBUF magic
conditionally depending if it is deemed necessary or not.

As of 25-mar-2013 wcsdup() _wcsdup() and _tcsdup() are only used in
WIN32 specific code, so tracking of these has not been extended for
other build targets. Without this fix, memory tracking system on
WIN32 builds, when using these functions, would provide misleading
results.
In order to properly extend this support for all targets curl.h
would have to define curl_wcsdup_callback prototype and consequently
wchar_t should be visible before that in curl.h. IOW curl_wchar_t
defined in curlbuild.h and this pulling whatever system header is
required to get wchar_t definition.
Additionally a new curl_global_init_mem() function that also receives
user defined wcsdup() callback would be required.
Proxy servers tend to add their own headers at the beginning of
responses. The size of these headers was not taken into account by
CURLINFO_HEADER_SIZE before this change.

Fixed incorrect initial response generation for the NTLM and LOGIN SASL
authentication mechanisms when the SASL-IR was detected.
Introduced in commit: 6da7dc026c.
curl has been accepting URLs using slightly wrong syntax for a long
time, such as when completely missing as slash "http://example.org" or
missing a slash when a query part is given
"http://example.org?q=foobar".
curl would translate these into a legitimate HTTP request to servers,
although as was shown in bug #1206 it was not adjusted properly in the
cases where a HTTP proxy was used.
Test 1213 and 1214 were added to the test suite to verify this fix.
The test HTTP server was adjusted to allow us to specify test number in
the host name only without using any slashes in a given URL.

Introducing a number of options to the multi interface that
allows for multiple pipelines to the same host, in order to
optimize the balance between the penalty for opening new
connections and the potential pipelining latency.
Two new options for limiting the number of connections:
CURLMOPT_MAX_HOST_CONNECTIONS - Limits the number of running connections
to the same host. When adding a handle that exceeds this limit,
that handle will be put in a pending state until another handle is
finished, so we can reuse the connection.
CURLMOPT_MAX_TOTAL_CONNECTIONS - Limits the number of connections in total.
When adding a handle that exceeds this limit,
that handle will be put in a pending state until another handle is
finished. The free connection will then be reused, if possible, or
closed if the pending handle can't reuse it.
Several new options for pipelining:
CURLMOPT_MAX_PIPELINE_LENGTH - Limits the pipeling length. If a
pipeline is "full" when a connection is to be reused, a new connection
will be opened if the CURLMOPT_MAX_xxx_CONNECTIONS limits allow it.
If not, the handle will be put in a pending state until a connection is
ready (either free or a pipe got shorter).
CURLMOPT_CONTENT_LENGTH_PENALTY_SIZE - A pipelined connection will not
be reused if it is currently processing a transfer with a content
length that is larger than this.
CURLMOPT_CHUNK_LENGTH_PENALTY_SIZE - A pipelined connection will not
be reused if it is currently processing a chunk larger than this.
CURLMOPT_PIPELINING_SITE_BL - A blacklist of hosts that don't allow
pipelining.
CURLMOPT_PIPELINING_SERVER_BL - A blacklist of server types that don't allow
pipelining.
See the curl_multi_setopt() man page for details.
Following commit e450f66a02 and the changes in the multi interface
being used internally, from 7.29.0, the transfer cancellation in
pop3_dophase_done() is no longer required.

Moved the blocking state machine to the disconnect functions so that the
logout / quit functions are only responsible for sending the actual
command needed to logout or quit.
Additionally removed the hard return on failure.
Added an exception, for the STORE command, to the untagged response
processor in imap_endofresp() as servers will back respones containing
the FETCH keyword instead.
The list of unsafe functions currently consists of sprintf, vsprintf,
strcat, strncat and gets.
Subsequently, some existing code needed updating to avoid warnings on
this.
As the UID has to be specified by the user for the FETCH command to work
correctly, added a check to imap_fetch(), although strictly speaking it
is protected by the call from imap_perform().
The option needs to be set on the SSL socket. Setting it on the model
takes no effect. Note that the non-blocking mode is still not enabled
for the handshake because the code is not yet ready for that.
Commit 26eaa83830 introduces the use of S_ISDIR() yet some compilers,
such as MSVC don't support it, so we must define a substitute using
file flags and mask.
Commit f4cc54cb47 (shipped as part of the 7.29.0 release) was a

allowing directory names, it also forbade "special" files like character

Some state changes would be performed after a failure test that

for success. Updated the code, for consistency, so all instances are
performed within a success test.
Added imap_custom(), which initiates the custom command processing,
and an associated response handler imap_state_custom_resp(), which
handles any responses by sending them to the client as body data.
All untagged responses with the same name as the first word of the
custom request string are accepted, with the exception of SELECT and
EXAMINE which have responses that cannot be easily identified. An
extra check has been provided for them so that any untagged responses
are accepted for them.
Added imap_parse_custom_request() for parsing the CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST
parameter which URL decodes the value and separates the request from
any parameters - This makes it easier to filter untagged responses
by the request command.
For consistency changed the logic of the imap_state_append_resp()
function to test for an unsucessful continuation response rather than a
succesful one.
The APPEND operation needs to be performed in several steps:
1) We send "<tag> APPEND <mailbox> <flags> {<size>}\r\n"
2) Server responds with continuation respose "+ ...\r\n"
3) We start the transfer and send <size> bytes of data
4) Only now we end the request command line by sending "\r\n"
5) Server responds with "<tag> OK ...\r\n"
This commit performs steps 4 and 5, in the DONE phase, as more
processing is required after the transfer.
Some state changes would be performed after a failure test that
performed a hard return, whilst others would be performed within a test
for success. Updated the code, for consistency, so all instances are
performed within a success test.
Not processing the final FETCH responses was not optimal, not only
because the response code would be ignored but it would also leave data
unread on the socket which would prohibit connection reuse.
A typical FETCH response can be broken down into four parts:
1) "* <uid> FETCH (<what> {<size>}\r\n", using continuation syntax
2) <size> bytes of the actual message
3) ")\r\n", finishing the untagged response
4) "<tag> OK ...", finishing the command
Part 1 is read in imap_fetch_resp(), part 2 is consumed in the PERFORM
phase by the transfer subsystem, parts 3 and 4 are currently ignored.
Added a loop to imap_statemach_act() in which Curl_pp_readresp() is
called until the cache is drained. Without this multiple responses
received in a single packet could result in a hang or delay.
RFC 3501 states that "the client MUST be prepared to accept any response
at all times" yet we assume anything received with "* " at the beginning
is the untagged response we want.
Introduced a helper function that checks whether the input looks like a
response to specified command, so that we may filter the ones we are
interested in according to the current state.
Introduced similar handling to the FETCH responses, where even the
untagged data responses are handled by the response handler of the
individual state.
Removed this pointer to a downloaded bytes counter because it was set in
smtp_init() to point to the same variable the transfer functions keep
the count in (k->bytecount), effectively making the code in transfer.c

From a maintenance point of view the code reads better to view tagged
responses, then untagged followed by continuation responses.
Additionally, this matches the order of responses in POP3.
Updated the mailbox variable to correctly reflect it's purpose. The
name mailbox was a leftover from when IMAP and POP3 support was
initially added to curl.
Updated the FETCH command to send the UID and SECTION parsed from the
URL. By default the BODY specifier doesn't include a section, BODY[] is
now sent whereas BODY[TEXT] was previously sent. In my opinion
retrieving just the message text is rarely useful when dealing with
emails, as the headers are required for example, so that functionality
is not retained. In can however be simulated by adding SECTION=TEXT to
the URL.
Also updated test801 and test1321 due to the BODY change.
Removed user and passwd from the SMTP struct as these cannot be set on
a per-request basis and are leftover from legacy FTP code.
Changed some comments still using FTP terminology.

Moved the mailbox and custom request variables from the per-connection

Moved the mailbox variable from the per-connection struct imap_conn to
the new per-request struct and fixed references accordingly.
Moved the clean-up of the mailbox variable from imap_disconnect() to
imap_done() as this variable is allocated in the do phase, yet would
have only been freed only once if multiple selects where preformed
on a single connection.
Always interprets the pointer passed with the CURLOPT_WRITEDATA or
CURLOPT_READDATA options of curl_easy_setopt() as a void pointer in
order to avoid problems in environments where FILE and void pointers
have non-trivial conversion.
Use Curl_pp_moredata() in Curl_pp_multi_statemach() to check if there is
more data to be received, rather than the socket state, as a task could
hang waiting for more data from the socket itself.
A simple function to test whether the PP is not sending and there are
still more data in its receiver cache. This will be later utilized to:
1) Change Curl_pp_multi_statemach() and Curl_pp_easy_statemach() to
not test socket state and just call user's statemach_act() function
when there are more data to process, because otherwise the task would
just hang, waiting for more data from the socket.
2) Allow PP users to read multiple responses by looping as long as there
are more data available and current phase is not finished.
(Currently needed for correct processing of IMAP SELECT responses.)
The attempt to use gai_strerror() or alternative function didn't work as
the 'sock_error' field didn't contain the proper error code. But since
this hasn't been reported and thus isn't really a big deal I decided to
just scrap the whole attempt to output the detailed resolver error and
instead remain with just stating that the resolving of the name failed.
It seems older gcc installations (at least) will cause warnings if we

Apple made a number of changes to Xcode 4. The SDKs were moved, the entire
Developer folder was moved, and PowerPC support was removed. The script
will now adapt to those changes and should be future-proofed against
additional changes in case Apple moves the Developer folder ever again.
Also, the minimum OS X version compiler option was removed, so that the
framework can be built against the latest SDK but still run in older cats.
... since they're not used by the easy interface really, I wanted to
remove the association. Also, I unified the pingpong statemachine driver
into a single function with a 'wait' argument: Curl_pp_statemach.
A call to Curl_ssl_connect() was accidentally left in when the SSL/TLS
connection layer was reworked in 7.29. Not only would this cause the
connection to block but had the additional overhead of calling the
non-blocking connect a little bit later.
This function was only used twice, both in places where performance
isn't crucial (socks + if2ip). Removing the use of this function removes
the need to have our private version for systems without it == reduced
amount of code.
Also, in the SOCKS case it is clearly better to fail gracefully rather
than to truncate the results.

An ambiguity in the SSLWrite() documentation lead to a bad inference in the

Reworked the pp->endofresp() function so that the conndata, line and

SMTP tests to respond with a 250 response code as per RFC5321.
Fixed the SASL capability detection to include the space character
before the authentication mechanism list. Otherwise a capability such
as SASLSOMETHING would be interpreted as enabling SASL and potentially
trying to identify SOMETHING as a mechanism.
Previously if a problem was found with one of the server's certificates,
we'd log an OSStatus for the end user to look up. Now we explain what
was wrong with the site's certificate chain. Also un-did part of the
previous commit where the code wouldn't catch errSSLServerAuthCompleted
if built under Leopard.
Fixed a small issue where smtp_endofresp() would look for capabilities
in the description part of a failure response. In theory a server
shouldn't respond with SIZE or AUTH in an EHLO command's failure
response but if it did then capabilities would be unnecessarily set
before eventually failing.
Renamed the authstate1 and authstate2 variables in imap_authenticate()
as the old name was a left over from when there was only one state
variable which was named due to a clash with the state() function.
Additionally this provides consistency with the smtp module.

Changed the SMTP_AUTH_PASSWD state constant to SMTP_AUTH_LOGIN_PASSWD to
better describe the state as the second part of an AUTH LOGIN command,
as well as for consistency with the imap and pop3 modules.
Introduced detection of the SASL-IR capability, in order to add support

Updated the automatic response tag generation to follow the examples

As a unique identifier should be generated for each command the string

When negotiating SASL DIGEST-MD5 authentication, the function
Curl_sasl_create_digest_md5_message() uses the data provided from the

appended to a local fixed-size buffer on the stack.
This vulnerability can be exploited by someone who is in control of a
server that a libcurl based program is accessing with POP3, SMTP or
IMAP. For applications that accept user provided URLs, it is also
thinkable that a malicious user would feed an application with a URL to
a server hosting code targetting this flaw.

config_h.com is a new file that generates a config.h file based on the
curl_config.h.in file and a quick scan of the configure script. This is
actually a generic procedure that is shared with other VMS packages.
The existing pre-built config-vms.h had over 100 entries that were not
correct and in some cases conflicted with the build options available in
the build_vms.com.
generate_config_vms_h_curl.com is a helper procedure to the
config_h.com. It covers the cases that the generic config_h.com is not
able to figure out, and accepts input from the build_vms.com procedure.
build_curlbuild_h.com is a new file to generate the curlbuild.h file
that Curl is now using when it is using a curl_config.h file.
post-config-vms.h is a new file that is needed to provide VMS specific
definitions, and most of them need to be set before the system header
files are included.
The VMS build procedure is fixed:
1. Fixed to link in the correct HP ssl library.
2. Fixed to detect if HP Kerberos is installed.
3. Fixed to detect if HP LDAP is installed.
4. Fixed to detect if gnv$libzshr is installed.
5. Simplified the input parameter parsing to not use a loop.
6. Warn that 64 bit pointer option support is not complete
in comments.
7. Default to IEEE floating if platform supports it so
resulting libcurl will be compatible with other
open source projects on VMS.
8. Default to LARGEFILE if platform supports it.
9. Default to enable SSL, LDAP, Kerberos, libz
if the libraries are present.
10. Build with exact case global symbols for libcurl.
11. Generate linker option file needed.
12. Compiler list option only commonly needed items.
13. fulllist option for those who really want it.
14. Create debug symbol file on Alpha, IA64.
By doing this unconditionally, we infer a simpler and more defined
behavior. This also has the upside that test 1021 no longer fails for me
even if I run with valgrind.
Also fixed some wrong comments.
According KB975858 this flag may cause problems on Windows 7 and
Windows Server 2008 R2 systems. Extended error information is not
currently used by libcurl and therefore not a requirement.
The flag may improve the SSL-connection shutdown in case of an
error. This means it might be a good improvement in the future.

This commit fixes a regression introduced in 052a08ff.
NSS caches certs/keys returned by the SSL_GetClientAuthDataHook callback
and if we connect second time to the same server, the cached cert/key
pair is used. If we use multiple client certificates for different
paths on the same server, we need to clear the session cache to force
NSS to call the hook again. The commit 052a08ff prevented the session
cache from being cleared if a client certificate from file was used.
The condition is now fixed to cover both cases: consssl->client_nickname
is not NULL if a client certificate from the NSS database is used and
connssl->obj_clicert is not NULL if a client certificate from file is
used.

This commit renames lib/setup.h to lib/curl_setup.h and
renames lib/setup_once.h to lib/curl_setup_once.h.
Removes the need and usage of a header inclusion guard foreign
to libcurl. [1]
Removes the need and presence of an alarming notice we carried
in old setup_once.h [2]
----------------------------------------
1 - lib/setup_once.h used __SETUP_ONCE_H macro as header inclusion guard
up to commit ec691ca3 which changed this to HEADER_CURL_SETUP_ONCE_H,
this single inclusion guard is enough to ensure that inclusion of
lib/setup_once.h done from lib/setup.h is only done once.
Additionally lib/setup.h has always used __SETUP_ONCE_H macro to
protect inclusion of setup_once.h even after commit ec691ca3, this
was to avoid a circular header inclusion triggered when building a
c-ares enabled version with c-ares sources available which also has
a setup_once.h header. Commit ec691ca3 exposes the real nature of
__SETUP_ONCE_H usage in lib/setup.h, it is a header inclusion guard
foreign to libcurl belonging to c-ares's setup_once.h
The renaming this commit does, fixes the circular header inclusion,
and as such removes the need and usage of a header inclusion guard
foreign to libcurl. Macro __SETUP_ONCE_H no longer used in libcurl.
2 - Due to the circular interdependency of old lib/setup_once.h and the
c-ares setup_once.h header, old file lib/setup_once.h has carried
back from 2006 up to now days an alarming and prominent notice about
the need of keeping libcurl's and c-ares's setup_once.h in sync.
Given that this commit fixes the circular interdependency, the need
and presence of mentioned notice is removed.
All mentioned interdependencies come back from now old days when
the c-ares project lived inside a curl subdirectory. This commit
removes last traces of such fact.

2. added -f option to force re-processing the file. Useful for
debugging/testing the process.
3. added support for output to '-' (stdout), allowing the output to be
piped.
4. All progress and error messages go to STDERR rather than STDOUT (3)
5. The script opened and closed the output file many times
unnecessarily. It now opens it once, does the output and closes it.
6. Backup of the input files happens after successful processing, not
before.
7. The output is written to a temporary file, and renamed to the
requested name after backup - this greatly reduces the window where the
file can be seen partially written.
8. all die calls have a \n at the end to suppress perl's traceback - the

lib/objnames.inc provides definition of curl_10char_object_name() shell

Test case 1221 does unit testng of this function and also verifies
that it is possible to generate distinct short object names for all
curl and libcurl *.c source file names.

and if that's the case, then we now use the deprecated
SSLSetEnableCertVerify() function instead to disable peer verification.

Issue: When building a 32bit target with large file support HP-UX
<sys/socket.h> header file may simultaneously provide two different
sets of declarations for sendfile and sendpath functions, one with
static and another with external linkage. Given that we do not use
mentioned functions we really don't care which linkage is the
appropriate one, but on the other hand, the double declaration emmits
warnings when using the HP-UX compiler and errors when using modern
gcc versions resulting in fatal compilation errors.
Mentioned issue is now fixed as long as we don't use sendfile nor
sendpath functions.
A bundle is a list of all persistent connections to the same host.
The connection cache consists of a hash of bundles, with the
hostname as the key.
The benefits may not be obvious, but they are two:
1) Faster search for connections to reuse, since the hash
lookup only finds connections to the host in question.
2) It lays out the groundworks for an upcoming patch,
which will introduce multiple HTTP pipelines.
This patch also removes the awkward list of "closure handles",
which were needed to send QUIT commands to the FTP server
when closing a connection.
Now we allocate a separate closure handle and use that
one to close all connections.
This has been tested in a live system for a few weeks, and of
course passes the test suite.
BLANK_AT_MAKETIME may be used in our Makefile.am files to blank
LIBS variable used in generated makefile at makefile processing
time. Doing this functionally prevents LIBS from being used for
all link targets in given makefile.
This handling already works with the easy-interface code. When a request
is sent on a re-used connection that gets closed by the server at the
same time as the request is sent, the situation may occur so that we can
send the request and we discover the broken connection as a RECV_ERROR
in the PERFORM state and then the request needs to be retried on a fresh
connection. Test 64 broke with 'multi-always-internally'.
Although it is not explicitly stated in the documentation, NSS uses
*pRetCert and *pRetKey even if the client authentication hook returns
a failure. Namely, if we destroy *pRetCert without clearing *pRetCert
afterwards, NSS destroys the certificate once again, which causes a
double free.

Bug: http://curl.haxx.se/mail/lib-2012-11/0125.html
When using only 1 second precision, curl doesn't create new cnonce
values quickly enough for all uses.
For example, issuing the following command multiple times to a recent
Tomcat causes authentication failures:
curl --digest -utest:test http://tomcat.test.com:8080/manager/list
This is because curl uses the same cnonce for several seconds, but
doesn't increment the nonce counter. Tomcat correctly interprets
this as a replay attack and rejects the request.
When microsecond-precision is available, this commit causes curl to
change cnonce values much more frequently.
With microsecond resolution, increasing the nounce length used in the
headers to 32 was made to further reduce the risk of duplication.
axTLS:
This will make the axTLS backend perform the RFC2818 checks, honoring
the VERIFYHOST setting similar to the OpenSSL backend.
Generic for OpenSSL and axTLS:
Move the hostcheck and cert_hostcheck functions from the lib/ssluse.c
files to make them genericly available for both the OpenSSL, axTLS and
other SSL backends. They are now in the new lib/hostcheck.c file.
CyaSSL:
CyaSSL now also has the RFC2818 checks enabled by default. There is a
limitation that the verifyhost can not be enabled exclusively on the
Subject CN field comparison. This SSL backend will thus behave like the
NSS and the GnuTLS (meaning: RFC2818 ok, or bust). In other words:
setting verifyhost to 0 or 1 will disable the Subject Alt Names checks
too.
Schannel:
Updated the schannel information messages: Split the IP address usage
message from the verifyhost setting and changed the message about
disabling SNI (Server Name Indication, used in HTTP virtual hosting)
into a message stating that the Subject Alternative Names checks are
being disabled when verifyhost is set to 0 or 1. As a side effect of
switching off the RFC2818 related servername checks with
SCH_CRED_NO_SERVERNAME_CHECK
(http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa923430.aspx) the SNI feature
is being disabled. This effect is not documented in MSDN, but Wireshark
output clearly shows the effect (details on the libcurl maillist).
PolarSSL:
Fix the prototype change in PolarSSL of ssl_set_session() and the move
of the peer_cert from the ssl_context to the ssl_session. Found this
change in the PolarSSL SVN between r1316 and r1317 where the
POLARSSL_VERSION_NUMBER was at 0x01010100. But to accommodate the Ubuntu
PolarSSL version 1.1.4 the check is to discriminate between lower then
PolarSSL version 1.2.0 and 1.2.0 and higher. Note: The PolarSSL SVN
trunk jumped from version 1.1.1 to 1.2.0.
Generic:
All the SSL backends are fixed and checked to work with the
ssl.verifyhost as a boolean, which is an internal API change.
The text "additional stuff not fine" text was added for debug purposes a
while ago, but it isn't really helping anyone and for some reason some
Linux distributions provide their libcurls built with debug info still

As a handle can be re-used after having done HTTP auth in a previous
request, it must make sure to clear out the HTTP types that aren't
wanted in this new request.
This reverts commit ce8311c7e4.
The commit made test 2024 work but caused a regression with repeated
Digest authentication. We need to fix this differently.
After a research team wrote a document[1] that found several live source
codes out there in the wild that misused the CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST
option thinking it was a boolean, this change now bans 1 as a value and
will make libcurl return error for it.
1 was never a sensible value to use in production but was introduced
back in the days to help debugging. It was always documented clearly
this way.
1 was never supported by all SSL backends in libcurl, so this cleanup
makes the treatment of it unified.
The report's list of mistakes for this option were all PHP code and
while there's a binding layer between libcurl and PHP, the PHP team has
decided that they have an as thin layer as possible on top of libcurl so
they will not alter or specifically filter a 'TRUE' value for this
particular option. I sympathize with that position.

Previously the Metalink code used Apple's CommonCrypto library only if
curl was built using the --with-darwinssl option. Now we use CommonCrypto
on all Apple operating systems including Tiger or later, or iOS 5 or
later, so you don't need to build --with-darwinssl anymore. Also rolled
out this change to libcurl's md5 code.
The iOS build was broken by a reference to a function that only existed
under OS X; fixed. Also fixed a hard-to-reproduce problem where, if the
server disconnected before libcurl got the chance to hang up first and
SecureTransport was in use, then we'd raise an error instead of failing
gracefully.
This is a minor change in behavior after having been pointed out by Mark
Tully and discussed on the list. Initially this case would internally
call poll() with no sockets and a timeout which would equal a sleep for
that specified time.

Since there are servers that seem to return very big encrypted
data packages, we need to be able to handle those without having
an internal size limit. To avoid the buffer growing to fast to
early the initial size was decreased and the minimum free space
in the buffer was decreased as well.
During the periods of rate limitation, the speedcheck function wasn't
called and thus the values weren't updated accordingly and it would then
easily trigger wrongly once data got transferred again.
Also, the progress callback's return code was not acknowledged in this
state so it could make an "abort" return code to get ignored and not
have the documented effect of aborting an ongoing transfer.

Commit b91d29a28e170c16d65d956db79f2cd3a82372d2 introduces a bug and breaks Curl_closesocket function. sock_accepted flag for the second socket should be tagged as TRUE before the sockopt callback is called because in case the callback returns an error, Curl_closesocket function is going to call the - fclosesocket - callback for the accept()ed socket
For active FTP connections, applications may need setting the sockopt after accept() call returns successful. This fix gives a call to the callback registered with CURL_SOCKOPTFUNCTION option. Also a new sock type - CURLSOCKTYPE_ACCEPT - is added. This type is to be passed to application callbacks with - purpose - parameter. Applications may use this parameter to distinguish between socket types.
Commit e351972bc8 brought in the ssh agent support but some uses of
the libssh2 agent API was done unconditionally which wasn't good enough
since that API hasn't always been present.
By reading the ->head pointer and using that instead of the ->size
number to figure out if there's a list remaining we avoid the (false

I suspect this is a regression introduced in commit 207cf150, included
since 7.24.0.
Avoid showing '(nil)' as hostname in verbose output by making sure the
hostname fixup function is called early enough to set the pointers that
are used for this. The name data is set again for each request even for
re-used connections to handle multiple hostnames over the same
connection (like with proxy) or that the casing etc of the host name is
changed between requests (which has proven to be important at least once
in the past).
Test1011 was modified to use a redirect with a re-used a connection
since it then showed the bug and now lo longer does. There's currently
no easy way to have the test suite detect 'nil' texts in verbose ouputs
so no tests will detect if this problem gets reintroduced.

We found a problem with ftp transfer using libcurl (7.23 and 7.25)
inside an application which is receiving unix signals (SIGUSR1,
SIGUSR2...) almost continuously. (Linux 2.4, PowerPC, HAVE_POLL_FINE
defined).
Curl_socket_check() uses poll() to wait for the socket, and retries it
when a signal is received (EINTR). However, if a signal is received and
it also happens that the timeout has been reached, Curl_socket_check()
returns -1 instead of 0 (indicating an error instead of a timeout).
In our case, the result is an aborted connection even before the ftp
banner is received from the server, and a return value of
CURLE_OUT_OF_MEMORY from curl_easy_perform() (Curl_pp_multi_statemach(),
in pingpong.c, actually returns OOM if Curl_socket_check() fails :-)
