You can probably declare that you don't suppose CSD, so don't worry
about that. You can declare that you don't need a TPM either, so any
HTTP client library (or class) will do as long as you can control its
behaviour well enough. In particular you must make a *new* TCP
connection after an HTTP redirect, if you're using SSL certificates for
authentication. Please do support certificates, or at least be aware
that someone will be along to do that shortly if you don't!

You pass it to openconnect with the '--cookie-on-stdin' option.

See the NetworkManager or ConnMan code for examples.
