##### SUMMARY
<!-- Explain the problem/feature briefly -->
The API is rejecting calls made from CloudMonkey when they include a
particular value/parameter.
The particular case found is using cloudmonkey to upload certificates. The
API will return Autentication Error when the parameter domainsuffix starts by
"*", removing the offending character makes the call work as expected.
The generated URL call seems to be properly formed, according to parsers,
with special characters properly escaped.
It looks as if the API server authentication functionality was not working
for some poisoned requests.
##### STEPS TO REPRODUCE

~~~
cmk upload customcertificate id=1 name='RootCertificate'
certificate='-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----' domainsuffix='*.svm.vdc.test"
~~~
<!-- You can also paste gist.github.com links for larger files -->
##### EXPECTED RESULTS
<!-- What did you expect to happen when running the steps above? -->
~~~
It should be possible to upload certificates using cloudmonkey, that include
* as domainsuffix
~~~
##### ACTUAL RESULTS
<!-- What actually happened? -->
<!-- Paste verbatim command output between quotes below -->
~~~
when the domainsuffix starts by * the call will return authentication error.
