The fix is one line fixing a broken switch statement and was already tested against Ubuntu 14.04 LTS with a rebuilt curl package. This was fixed in upstream libcurl in the following bug: https://sourceforge.net/p/curl/bugs/1371/ The bug fix consists of one missing break statement at the end of a case in a switch statement. I personally patched the bug using source code release curl_7.35.0-1ubuntu2.6.dsc, used in Ubuntu 14.04 LTS, and verified it does indeed fix the bug and all of the package's tests still pass afterwards. [Test Case] The bug can be reproduced using the following libcurl parameters (even via CLI, pycurl, etc.). CURLOPT_SSLCERTTYPE == "P12" CURLOPT_SSLCERT = path to PKCS#12 CURLOPT_SSLKEY = path to PKCS#12 CURLOPT_SSLKEYPASSWD = key for PKCS#12 if needed Basically, just use a PKCS#12 format client certificate and private key against some certificate protected web server. [Regression Potential] If it could possibly break anything, which is extraordinarily unlikely, it would break one of the three client certificate formats (most likely PKCS#12 but also PEM or DER). Note 1/3 formats is already broken due to the bug. Client certificates of all three types could be checked to prevent this.
