Native Schannel TLS stack of #Windows was so unreliable it got axed from #curl:
* Never worked reliably under real‑world loads.
* Quirky, cumbersome API/architecture that broke integrations.
* Zero developer interest—nobody tested or maintained it.
* Pure maintenance drag with no real benefit.

So #Microsoft again shipped a built‑in that nobody uses, and projects ditch it entirely in favor of better third‑party alternatives.

Carving out msh3

I hope that by now most readers of my blog have understood that curl, and libcurl specifically, is an architecture with a transfer core with a set of different backends plugged in. Backends powered by different third party libraries.

I'm happy to say that we have zero #curl CVEs to announce this time.
47 days since the last confirmed curl vulnerability report

My gut feeling says you need a new #curl release. So here is curl 8.15.0 just for you.

curl 8.15.0

Welcome to another curl release. A shorter cycle this time so we did not have time to merge many changes: there is just one logged. See below. This is the 269th release featuring 269 command line options.

Even as #curl is soon 10000 days, here's a list of changes and features that we have queued up for the coming next release. And these are just things we think have a chance of getting merged. (But not all of them will manage, most likely.)

Seven day embargo limit for #curl: git.hardenedbsd.org/shawn.webb…

It can take the #HardenedBSD project a full month to rebuild its package repos. And since we've built this software monoculture against libcurl, this will be FUN!
