.SH NAME

CURLOPT_CAINFO \- path to Certificate Authority (CA) bundle

.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
.nf
|
|
|
|
#include <curl/curl.h>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
Pass a char pointer to a null\-terminated string naming a file holding one or
|
|
|
|
more certificates to verify the peer with.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If \fICURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER(3)\fP is zero and you avoid verifying the
|
|
|
|
server\(aqs certificate, \fICURLOPT_CAINFO(3)\fP need not even indicate an
|
|
|
|
accessible file.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This option is by default set to the system path where libcurl\(aqs CA
|
|
|
|
certificate bundle is assumed to be stored, as established at build time.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
(iOS and macOS) When curl uses Secure Transport this option is supported. If
|
|
|
|
the option is not set, then curl uses the certificates in the system and user
|
|
|
|
Keychain to verify the peer.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
(Schannel) This option is supported for Schannel in Windows 7 or later but we
|
|
|
|
recommend not using it until Windows 8 since it works better starting then.
|
|
|
|
If the option is not set, then curl uses the certificates in the Windows\(aq
|
|
|
|
store of root certificates (the default for Schannel).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The application does not have to keep the string around after setting this
|
|
|
|
option.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The default value for this can be figured out with \fICURLINFO_CAINFO(3)\fP.
|
|
|
|
.SH DEFAULT
|
|
|
|
Built\-in system specific. When curl is built with Secure Transport or
|
|
|
|
Schannel, this option is not set by default.
|
|
|
|
.SH PROTOCOLS
|
