make #curl --url support a file with URLs?
curl.se/mail/archive-2025-01/0…
With my new PR, you can write "curl --url @file" and curl will download all the URLs in the provided file as if -O was used for each one of them. It can also get the list from stdin if you do "--url @-" in style with how other curl options work.
This is the first in a new series of monthly emails about what YOU can do to help out in the #curl project:
We have just confirmed that #curl up 2025 will take place in Prague over the weekend May 3-4.
Mark it in your calendars. Plan for it. We have started to add details to the wiki page of this year's event:
Top #curl sponsors as of now. Friends!
(yeps, it is the exact same list of names I have showed for quite some time...)
Twenty-six years ago on this day when we shipped #curl 5.5.1, the changelog was easier to gather than what they usually are today: curl.se/ch/5.5.1.html

Do you think this is fair?
"Problems that only trigger using legacy dependencies are not considered security problems."

#curl
Uhmmmm... so, make yourself a CVE authority on your stuff [effectively blocking anyone else from publishing anything on your stuff), and do nothing else (i.e. no CVE published).
Of course, it's a bit late for #curl, but you know, other projects?
(and yes, it's naughty. I'm in a naughty mood, yeah?)

CVSS is dead to us
CVSS is short for Common Vulnerability Scoring System and is according to Wikipedia a technical standard for assessing the severity of vulnerabilities in computing systems.daniel.haxx.se
It is only a year since we switched all #curl man pages to markdown but wow, what an improvement and "life enhancer"!
