GnuPG does not provide Host: header for proxy requests
Closed, ResolvedPublic
Actions

Description

When requesting a key through a proxy, GnuPG (common/http.c line 1651) does not provide
a Host: header with the request. This missing header causes some keyservers (e.g.
keyserver.ubuntu.com) to return a 400 Bad Request instead of the key. Issuing the same
request without a proxy does provide a Host: header (common/http.c line 1671) and the
request is satisfied.
