.SH NAME
|
|
CURLOPT_UNRESTRICTED_AUTH \- send credentials to other hosts too
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
.nf
|
|
#include <curl/curl.h>
|
|
|
|
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_UNRESTRICTED_AUTH,
|
|
long goahead);
|
|
.fi
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
Set the long \fIgohead\fP parameter to 1L to make libcurl continue to send
|
|
authentication (user+password) credentials when following locations, even when
|
|
hostname changed. This option is meaningful only when setting
|
|
\fICURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION(3)\fP.
|
|
|
|
Further, when this option is not used or set to \fB0L\fP, libcurl does not
|
|
send custom nor internally generated Authentication: headers on requests done
|
|
to other hosts than the one used for the initial URL.
|
|
|
|
By default, libcurl only sends credentials and Authentication headers to the
|
|
initial hostname as given in the original URL, to avoid leaking username +
|
|
password to other sites.
|
|
|
|
This option should be used with caution: when curl follows redirects it
|
|
blindly fetches the next URL as instructed by the server. Setting
|
|
\fICURLOPT_UNRESTRICTED_AUTH(3)\fP to 1L makes curl trust the server and sends
|
|
possibly sensitive credentials to any host the server points to, possibly
|
|
again and again as the following hosts can keep redirecting to new hosts.
