I'm purifying testnet to track the source of the core dump. First remark:
There is an uninitialized memory read at the following location:
HtHTTP::ReadChunkedBody() [HtHTTP.cc:933]
_connection.read_line(ChunkHeader);
// Append the chunk-data to the contents of the response
=> _response._contents << buffer;
length+=chunk_size;
you should save the return of read and use
_response._contents.append(buffer, read_count). Buffer is not null
terminated. This is a source of big problems.
