elixir-mint/mint

This system is an Elixir HTTP client library that provides a unified interface for connecting to HTTP/1.1 and HTTP/2 servers. It handles protocol negotiation, transport layer management (TCP/SSL), and comprehensive header and frame parsing. The codebase includes robust security hardening against memory exhaustion and injection attacks, alongside extensive test infrastructure for proxy tunneling and certificate validation.

This period focused on addressing critical security vulnerabilities in the HTTP/1 and HTTP/2 parsers, implementing strict bounds and validation to prevent memory exhaustion and injection attacks. Concurrently, the project expanded its test coverage by adding a comprehensive HTTP test suite and establishing Docker-based infrastructure for HTTPS and authenticated proxy scenarios.

This period focused on restructuring the library's internal architecture by introducing core abstractions for connections, headers, and transport layers, alongside a unified HTTP module for protocol negotiation. Significant effort was also dedicated to expanding test coverage for HTTP/1 and HTTP/2 implementations, including proxy tunneling, SSL/TLS handling, and compatibility shims for older Erlang/OTP versions.
