better control at the exact state of the connection's SSL status so that we
know exactly when it has completed the SSL negotiation or not so that there
won't be accidental re-uses of connections that are wrongly believed to be
in SSL-completed-negotiate state.
such as the CURLOPT_SSL_CTX_FUNCTION one treat that as if it was a Location:
following. The patch that introduced this feature was done for 7.11.0, but
this code and functionality has been broken since about 7.15.4 (March 2006)
with the introduction of non-blocking OpenSSL "connects".
It was a hack to begin with and since it doesn't work and hasn't worked
correctly for a long time and nobody has even noticed, I consider it a very
suitable subject for plain removal. And so it was done.
get a fresh one downloaded and created with 'make ca-bundle' or you can get
one from here => http://curl.haxx.se/docs/caextract.html if you want a fresh
new one extracted from Mozilla's recent list of ca certs.
The configure option --with-ca-bundle now lets you specify what file to use
as default ca bundle for your build. If not specified, the configure script
will check a few known standard places for a global ca cert to use.
connection by force when it was called before the entire request is
completed, simply because we can't know if the connection really can be
re-used safely at that point.
verification is requested. Previously it would even return failure if gnutls
failed to get the server cert even though no verification was asked for.
- Fix my Curl_timeleft() leftover mistake in the gnutls code
out and provides test program that demonstrates that libcurl might not set
error description message for error CURLE_COULDNT_RESOLVE_HOST for Windows
threaded name resolver builds. Fixed now.
(http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=1889856): When using the gnutls ssl
layer, cleaning-up and reinitializing curl ends up with https requests
failing with "ASN1 parser: Element was not found" errors. Obviously a
regression added in 7.16.3.
creates a suitable ca-bundle.crt file in PEM format for use with curl. The
recommended way to run it is to use 'make ca-bundle' in the build tree root.
"HttpOnly" feature introduced by Microsoft and apparently also supported by
Firefox: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms533046.aspx . HttpOnly
is now supported when received from servers in HTTP headers, when written to
cookie jars and when read from existing cookie jars.
(http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=1879375) which describes how libcurl
got lost in this scenario: proxy tunnel (or HTTPS over proxy), ask to do any
proxy authentication and the proxy replies with an auth (like NTLM) and then
closes the connection after that initial informational response.
libcurl would not properly re-initialize the connection to the proxy and
continue the auth negotiation like supposed. It does now however, as it will
now detect if one or more authentication methods were available and asked
for, and will thus retry the connection and continue from there.
- I made the progress callback get called properly during proxy CONNECT.
CONNECT over a proxy. curl_multi_fdset() didn't report back the socket
properly during that state, due to a missing case in the switch in the
multi_getsock() function.
previously had a number of flaws, perhaps most notably when an application
fired up N transfers at once as then they wouldn't pipeline at all that
nicely as anyone would think... Test case 530 was also updated to take the
improved functionality into account.
(http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=1871269) and we could fix his hang-
problem that occurred when doing a large HTTP POST request with the
response-body read from a callback.
--keepalive-time to curl to set the keepalive probe interval. I also took
the opportunity to rename the recently added no-keep-alive option to
no-keepalive to keep a consistent naming and to avoid getting two dashes in
these option names. Eric also provided an update to the man page for the new
option.
(it already before skipped /usr/lib). /usr/lib64 is the default library
directory on many 64bit systems and it's unlikely that anyone would use the
path privately on systems where it's not.
libcurl to seek in a given input stream. This is particularly important when
doing upload resumes when there's already a huge part of the file present
remotely. Before, and still if this callback isn't used, libcurl will read
and through away the entire file up to the point to where the resuming
begins (which of course can be a slow opereration depending on file size,
I/O bandwidth and more). This new function will also be preferred to get
used instead of the CURLOPT_IOCTLFUNCTION for seeking back in a stream when
doing multi-stage HTTP auth with POST/PUT.
(http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=1868255) with a patch. It identifies
and fixes a problem with parsing WWW-Authenticate: headers with additional
spaces in the line that the parser wasn't written to deal with.
(http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=1863171) where he pointed out that
libcurl's date parser didn't accept a +1300 time zone which actually is used
fairly often (like New Zealand's Dailight Savings Time), so I modified the
parser to now accept up to and including -1400 to +1400.
code to instead introduce support for a new proxy type called
CURLPROXY_SOCKS5_HOSTNAME that is used to send the host name to the proxy
instead of IP address and there's thus no longer any need for a new
curl_easy_setopt() option.
The default SOCKS5 proxy is again back to sending the IP address to the
proxy. The new curl command line option for enabling sending host name to a
SOCKS5 proxy is now --socks5-hostname.
proxy do the host name resolving and only if --socks5ip (or
CURLOPT_SOCKS5_RESOLVE_LOCAL) is used we resolve the host name locally and
pass on the IP address only to the proxy.
made it an unsigned int. The type was only used in the curl_sockaddr struct
definition (only used by the curl_opensocket_callback). On all platforms I
could find information about, socklen_t is 32 unsigned bits large so I don't
think this will break the API or ABI. The main reason for this change is of
course for all the platforms that don't have a socklen_t definition in their
headers to build fine again. Providing our own configure magic and custom
definition of socklen_t on those systems proved to work but was a lot of
cruft, code and extra magic needed - when this very small change of type seems
harmless and still solves the missing socklen_t problem.
is an inofficial PROXY4 variant that sends the hostname to the proxy instead
of the resolved address (which is already supported by SOCKS5). --socks4a is
the curl command line option for it and CURLOPT_PROXYTYPE can now be set to
CURLPROXY_SOCKS4A as well.
(http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=1856628) and provided a fix for the
(small) memory leak in the SSL session ID caching code. It happened when a
previous entry in the cache was re-used.
(http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=1849764) with an included fix. He
identified a problem for re-used connections that previously had sent
Expect: 100-continue and in some situations the subsequent POST (that didn't
use Expect:) still had the internal flag set for its use. David's fix (that
makes the setting of the flag in every single request unconditionally) is
fine and is now used!
callback) over a proxy when NTLM is used as auth with the proxy. The bug
also concerned Digest and was limited to using callback only. Spacen worked
with us to provide a useful patch. I added the test case 547 and 548 to
verify two variations of POST over proxy with NTLM.
the appending of the "type=" thing on FTP URLs when they are passed to a
HTTP proxy. Some proxies just don't like that appending (which is done
unconditionally in 7.17.1), and some proxies treat binary/ascii transfers
better with the appending done!
the same state struct as the host auth, so both could never be used at the
same time! I fixed it (without being able to check) to use two separate
structs to allow authentication using Negotiate on host and proxy
simultanouesly.
callback was used, as it could wrongly pass on a bad size for the outgoing
HTTP header. The bad size would be a very large value as it was a wrapped
size_t content. This happened when the whole HTTP request failed to get sent
in one single send. http://curl.haxx.se/mail/lib-2007-11/0165.html
forwarded from the Gentoo bug tracker by Daniel Black and was originally
submitted by Robin Johnson, pointed out that libcurl would do bad memory
references when it failed and bailed out before the handler thing was
setup. My fix is not done like the provided patch does it, but instead I
make sure that there's never any chance for a NULL pointer in that struct
member.
out that SFTP requests didn't use persistent connections. Neither did SCP
ones. I gave the SSH code a good beating and now both SCP and SFTP should
use persistent connections fine. I also did a bunch for indent changes as
well as a bug fix for the "keyboard interactive" auth.
out a problem in curl.h when building C++ apps with MSVC. To fix it, the
inclusion of header files in curl.h is moved outside of the C++ extern "C"
linkage block.
all the numericals at the top phrased "shorter" and I cut out the "number of
releases since the very beginning" since that's just the number curl releases
+ 26 and not a very interesting number anyway.
building with VC8 to get the "manifest" embedded to make fine stand-alone
binaries. The maketgz and the src/Makefile.vc6 files were adjusted
accordingly.
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=332917 about a HTTP redirect to
FTP that caused memory havoc. His work together with my efforts created two
fixes:
#1 - FTP::file was moved to struct ftp_conn, because is has to be dealt with
at connection cleanup, at which time the struct HandleData could be
used by another connection.
Also, the unused char *urlpath member is removed from struct FTP.
#2 - provide a Curl_reset_reqproto() function that frees
data->reqdata.proto.* on connection setup if needed (that is if the
SessionHandle was used by a different connection).
This happened because the tftp code always uncondionally did a bind()
without caring if one already had been done and then it failed. I wrote a
test case (1009) to verify this, but it is a bit error-prone since it will
have to pick a fixed local port number and since the tests are run on so
many different hosts in different situations I add it in disabled state.
CURLOPT_OPENSOCKETDATA to set a callback that allows an application to replace
the socket() call used by libcurl. It basically allows the app to change
address, protocol or whatever of the socket. (I also did some whitespace
indent/cleanups in lib/url.c which kind of hides some of these changes, sorry
for mixing those in.)
CURLOPT_SSH_HOST_PUBLIC_KEY_MD5 and the curl tool --hostpubmd5. They both make
the SCP or SFTP connection verify the remote host's md5 checksum of the public
key before doing a connect, to reduce the risk of a man-in-the-middle attack.
function do wrong on all input bytes that are >= 0x80 (decimal 128) due to a
signed / unsigned mistake in the code. I fixed it and added test case 543 to
verify.
