#curl


#curl sometimes fails to access some servers. In most situations the problem is not in curl itself but on the server side. Example:

1. Fails: curl radissonhotels.com

2. Works: curl -A 'Mozilla/5.0 xx Chrome/119' radissonhotels.com

3. Fails: curl -A 'Mozilla/5.0 xx Chrome/118' radissonhotels.com

4. Fails, too: curl -A 'Mozilla/5.0 xx Chrome/1189' radissonhotels.com

Perhaps they perform #filtering to obtain improved #security? It's hard to tell, but any serious attacker surely knows how to spoof the user agent string and bypass such simple #regex

tip for STF: the IBB bug-bounty (which #curl is part of) gives 20% of the bounty to the project and 80% to the reporter - which I think is nice because there is certainly work to be done from the project's part as well to deal with the issues ...

"I was offered 2000 USD funding to the curl project, via a crypto currency and
an elaborate setup. I told them we happily accept funding but only as "real
money". They then declined to fund us." -- good riddance!

Docker-Sponsored Open Source (hub) insists that one cannot have a path to commercialisation - docker.com/community/open-sour… ... seems parochial at best ... at worst why is docker hub getting involved ? Removing rate limiting as a benefit for us also seems to ignore that the benefit is almost entirely theirs. not sure #docker hub is for #curl
