I added the CVE identifier for the 7.52.0 bug in the commit log since we had it for a short while, and removed the WinCE specific identifiers (thanks Leo!). signature.asc Description: PGP signature

I think that message must have appeared after I downloaded it from there, difficult to miss that notice.

We will release a patch update within a few days to fix a serious security problem found in curl 7.52.0. You may consider holding off until then." https://curl.haxx.se/download.html So, I reverted the update for now. It seems like this new bug is more serious than the security bug fixed in 7.52.0, CVE-2016-9586: printf floating point buffer overflow. The other two named bugs fixed in 7.52.0 only manifest on Windows CE with the schannel TLS implementation, if I understand correctly.
