Description OSIDB Bzimport 2026-07-03 07:02:01 UTC 
Successfully using libcurl to do a transfer to a specific HTTP origin
(`hostA`) with **Digest** authentication and then changing the origin to a
different one (`hostB`) for a second transfer, reusing the same handle, makes
libcurl wrongly pass on the  `Authorization:` header field meant for `hostA`,
to `hostB`.
