+Subject: [PATCH] TLS: make SSL_VERIFYSTATUS work again
+
+The CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYSTATUS option was not properly handled by libcurl
+and thus even if the status couldn't be verified, the connection would
+be allowed and the user would not be told about the failed verification.
+
+Regression since cb4e2be7c6d42ca
+
+CVE-2017-2629
+Bug: https://curl.haxx.se/docs/adv_20170222.html
