Added a third data-point. AI slop is currently 3x more common than confirmed vulnerabilities. And I might still have missed to mark up a few ...

We crank it up to over 3,000 this year. #curl

While on the topic of colorful #curl graphs. Complexity distribution in the source code over time. The recent effort to simplify code in curl has been done by multiple people through the last year or so. The graph's cyclomatic complexity is the score shown by the pmccabe tool.

More than half of #curl's source code lines have been changed within the last four years. 1,101 lines from before year 2000 still remain "untouched".
November 6, 2025 at 7:57 AM
yes of course there is a graph of all #curl releases every done. This includes the releases done using the previous names (httpget and urlget) as well

#fastly takes about 99.59% of that bandwidth.

The coming #curl release picture is of the slightly less humble kind

A semi regular reminder. These are #curl's best friends. The top sponsor of November 2025.

The number of lines of code in #curl has of course exploded over time, from 100 in late 1996 to almost 180,000 today, but interestingly our tests seem to generally keep up. Number of tests per KLOC is now over 12. (and yes, a single test can be very simple or […]

sntrcpy has been banned completely from #curl since a while back, for the same reasons
November 2, 2025 at 10:25 PM
One way we work on making #curl code safer (with fewer mistakes) is by using more helper function and fewer direct calls to *alloc() and mem/strcpy().

Since reported vulnerabilities generally are really old, we can't know yet for several years if it actually […]

October 2025 stands out in the #curl stats. The graph show commits per month since 1999.
