- I introduced a maximum limit for received HTTP headers. It is controlled by
the define CURL_MAX_HTTP_HEADER which is even exposed in the public header file to allow for users to fairly easy rebuild libcurl with a modified limit. The rationale for a fixed limit is that libcurl is realloc()ing a buffer to be able to put a full header into it, so that it can call the header callback with the entire header, but that also risk getting it into trouble if a server by mistake or willingly sends a header that is more or less without an end. The limit is set to 100K.
