From curl(1):
--retry‐delay <seconds>
Make curl sleep this amount of time before each retry when a transfer has failed with a transient error
How would a retry at the wrong time cause a double transaction? I doubt this would be a bug on the curl side.
- hsbauauvhabzb 3y agoHow many unix tools have idiosyncratic behaviours to prevent breaking obscure use cases? If there’s not a situation which exists where that bug may be a security issue, I could hack one up just so there is.
- blueflow 3y agoThen your "situation" should get the CVE. It is indirectly relying on transient errors (like DNS resolution) not happening.
- hsbauauvhabzb 3y agoNo, the error is an overflow in curl causing requests to occur when dns fails.
