-From 7b752106ac42bd5b907793950d9125a0972c8e8e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
-From: Ville Vesilehto <ville@vesilehto.fi>
-Date: Sat, 3 May 2025 11:39:01 +0300
-Subject: [PATCH] Merge commit from fork
-
-* fix(parser): Limit line length in getline
-
-Prevents potential infinite loop and memory exhaustion in
-stream_line_reader::getline by enforcing max line length.
-
-Signed-off-by: Ville Vesilehto <ville@vesilehto.fi>
-
-* fix: increase default max line length to 32k
-
-LONG_QUERY_VALUE test is set at 25k.
-
-Signed-off-by: Ville Vesilehto <ville@vesilehto.fi>
-
-* test(client): expect read error with too long query
-
-Adds a test case (`TooLongQueryValue`) to verify client behavior
-when the request URI is excessively long, exceeding
-`CPPHTTPLIB_MAX_LINE_LENGTH`. In this scenario, the server is
-expected to reset the connection.
-
-Signed-off-by: Ville Vesilehto <ville@vesilehto.fi>
-
-CVE: CVE-2025-46728
-Upstream: https://github.com/yhirose/cpp-httplib/commit/7b752106ac42bd5b907793950d9125a0972c8e8e
-[thomas: adapt lines numbers to v0.19.0]
