curl/tests/data/test1559, branch gemini-meta cURL mirror with patches applied CURL_MAX_INPUT_LENGTH: largest acceptable string input size 2019-04-29T06:02:44+00:00 Daniel Stenberg daniel@haxx.se 2019-04-29T06:00:49+00:00 5fc28510a4664f46459d9a40187d81cc08571e60 This limits all accepted input strings passed to libcurl to be less than CURL_MAX_INPUT_LENGTH (8000000) bytes, for these API calls: curl_easy_setopt() and curl_url_set(). The 8000000 number is arbitrary picked and is meant to detect mistakes or abuse, not to limit actual practical use cases. By limiting the acceptable string lengths we also reduce the risk of integer overflows all over. NOTE: This does not apply to `CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS`. Test 1559 verifies. Closes #3805 
This limits all accepted input strings passed to libcurl to be less than
CURL_MAX_INPUT_LENGTH (8000000) bytes, for these API calls:
curl_easy_setopt() and curl_url_set().

The 8000000 number is arbitrary picked and is meant to detect mistakes
or abuse, not to limit actual practical use cases. By limiting the
acceptable string lengths we also reduce the risk of integer overflows
all over.

NOTE: This does not apply to `CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS`.

Test 1559 verifies.

Closes #3805
