Summary: inappropriate GSSAPI delegation
Details: When doing GSSAPI authentication, libcurl unconditionally performs credential delegation. This hands the server a copy of the client's security credentials, allowing the server to impersonate the client to any other using the same GSSAPI mechanism. This is obviously a sensitive operation, which should only be done when the user explicitly so directs. The GSS/Negotiate feature is only used by libcurl for HTTP authentication if told to, and only if libcurl was built with a library that provides the GSSAPI. Many builds of libcurl do not have GSS enabled.
