.SH SYNOPSIS

.nf

.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
Pass a char pointer to a null\-terminated string naming a \fIfile\fP holding a CA
|
|
|
|
certificate in PEM format. If the option is set, an additional check against
|
|
|
|
the peer certificate is performed to verify the issuer is indeed the one
|
|
|
|
associated with the certificate provided by the option. This additional check
|
|
|
|
is useful in multi\-level PKI where one needs to enforce that the peer
|
|
|
|
certificate is from a specific branch of the tree.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This option makes sense only when used in combination with the
|
|
|
|
\fICURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER(3)\fP option. Otherwise, the result of the check is
|
|
|
|
not considered as failure.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A specific error code (CURLE_SSL_ISSUER_ERROR) is defined with the option,
|
|
|
|
which is returned if the setup of the SSL/TLS session has failed due to a
|
|
|
|
mismatch with the issuer of peer certificate (\fICURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER(3)\fP
|
|
|
|
has to be set too for the check to fail). (Added in 7.19.0)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The application does not have to keep the string around after setting this
|
|
|
|
option.
|
|
|
|
.SH DEFAULT
|
|
|
|
NULL
|
|
|
|
