.SH SYNOPSIS

|
#include <curl/curl.h>

.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
Pass a long with a bitmask to tell libcurl about specific SSL
|
|
|
|
behaviors. Available bits:
|
|
|
|
.IP CURLSSLOPT_ALLOW_BEAST
|
|
|
|
Tells libcurl to not attempt to use any workarounds for a security flaw in the
|
|
|
|
SSL3 and TLS1.0 protocols. If this option is not used or this bit is set to 0,
|
|
|
|
the SSL layer libcurl uses may use a work\-around for this flaw although it
|
|
|
|
might cause interoperability problems with some (older) SSL implementations.
|
|
|
|
WARNING: avoiding this work\-around lessens the security, and by setting this
|
|
|
|
option to 1 you ask for exactly that. This option is only supported for Secure
|
|
|
|
Transport and OpenSSL.
|
|
|
|
.IP CURLSSLOPT_NO_REVOKE
|
|
|
|
Tells libcurl to disable certificate revocation checks for those SSL backends
|
|
|
|
where such behavior is present. This option is only supported for Schannel
|
|
|
|
(the native Windows SSL library), with an exception in the case of Windows\(aq
|
|
|
|
Untrusted Publishers block list which it seems cannot be bypassed. (Added in
|
|
|
|
7.44.0)
|
|
|
|
.IP CURLSSLOPT_NO_PARTIALCHAIN
|
|
|
|
Tells libcurl to not accept "partial" certificate chains, which it otherwise
|
|
|
|
does by default. This option is only supported for OpenSSL and fails the
|
|
|
|
certificate verification if the chain ends with an intermediate certificate
|
|
|
|
and not with a root cert. (Added in 7.68.0)
|
|
|
|
.IP CURLSSLOPT_REVOKE_BEST_EFFORT
|
|
|
|
Tells libcurl to ignore certificate revocation checks in case of missing or
|
|
|
|
offline distribution points for those SSL backends where such behavior is
|
|
|
|
present. This option is only supported for Schannel (the native Windows SSL
|
|
|
|
library). If combined with \fICURLSSLOPT_NO_REVOKE\fP, the latter takes
|
|
|
|
precedence. (Added in 7.70.0)
|
|
|
|
.IP CURLSSLOPT_NATIVE_CA
|
|
|
|
Tell libcurl to use the operating system\(aqs native CA store for certificate
|
|
|
|
verification. If you set this option and also set a CA certificate file or
|
|
|
|
directory then during verification those certificates are searched in addition
|
|
|
|
to the native CA store.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Works with wolfSSL on Windows, Linux (Debian, Ubuntu, Gentoo, Fedora, RHEL),
|
|
|
|
macOS, Android and iOS (added in 8.3.0), with GnuTLS (added in 8.5.0) or on
|
|
|
|
Windows when built to use OpenSSL (Added in 7.71.0).
|
|
|
|
.IP CURLSSLOPT_AUTO_CLIENT_CERT
|
|
|
|
Tell libcurl to automatically locate and use a client certificate for
|
|
|
|
authentication, when requested by the server. This option is only supported
|
|
|
|
for Schannel (the native Windows SSL library). Prior to 7.77.0 this was the
|
|
|
|
default behavior in libcurl with Schannel. Since the server can request any
|
|
|
|
certificate that supports client authentication in the OS certificate store it
|
|
|
|
could be a privacy violation and unexpected.
|
|
|
|
