Fixed In Version: curl-7.19.7-54.el6_10 Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
Cause: libcurl's internal state machine used for HTTP authentication got confused by a duplicated WWW-Authenticate header in the HTTP response. Consequence: libcurl did not send the Authorization header in the subsequent HTTP request and continued without the authentication. Fix: libcurl's internal state machine used for HTTP authentication was extended to handle this case properly. Result: HTTP authentication now works as expected in this case.
