CURLOPT_PROXY_CRLFILE(3)				     curl_easy_setopt options					  CURLOPT_PROXY_CRLFILE(3)

NAME
CURLOPT_PROXY_CRLFILE - specify a proxy Certificate Revocation List file SYNOPSIS
#include <curl/curl.h> CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_PROXY_CRLFILE, char *file); DESCRIPTION
This option is for connecting to a HTTPS proxy, not a HTTPS server. Pass a char * to a zero terminated string naming a file with the concatenation of CRL (in PEM format) to use in the certificate validation that occurs during the SSL exchange. When curl is built to use NSS or GnuTLS, there is no way to influence the use of CRL passed to help in the verification process. When libcurl is built with OpenSSL support, X509_V_FLAG_CRL_CHECK and X509_V_FLAG_CRL_CHECK_ALL are both set, requiring CRL check against all the elements of the certificate chain if a CRL file is passed. This option makes sense only when used in combination with the CURLOPT_PROXY_SSL_VERIFYPEER(3) option. A specific error code (CURLE_SSL_CRL_BADFILE) is defined with the option. It is returned when the SSL exchange fails because the CRL file cannot be loaded. A failure in certificate verification due to a revocation information found in the CRL does not trigger this specific error. The application does not have to keep the string around after setting this option. DEFAULT
NULL PROTOCOLS
Used with HTTPS proxy. EXAMPLE
TODO AVAILABILITY
Added in 7.52.0 RETURN VALUE
Returns CURLE_OK if the option is supported, CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION if not, or CURLE_OUT_OF_MEMORY if there was insufficient heap space. SEE ALSO

CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST(3)				     curl_easy_setopt options					 CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST(3)

NAME
CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST - verify the certificate's name against host SYNOPSIS
#include <curl/curl.h> CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST, long verify); DESCRIPTION
Pass a long as parameter specifying what to verify. This option determines whether libcurl verifies that the server cert is for the server it is known as. When negotiating TLS and SSL connections, the server sends a certificate indicating its identity. When CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST(3) is 2, that certificate must indicate that the server is the server to which you meant to connect, or the connection fails. Simply put, it means it has to have the same name in the certificate as is in the URL you operate against. Curl considers the server the intended one when the Common Name field or a Subject Alternate Name field in the certificate matches the host name in the URL to which you told Curl to connect. When the verify value is 1, curl_easy_setopt will return an error and the option value will not be changed. It was previously (in 7.28.0 and earlier) a debug option of some sorts, but it is no longer supported due to frequently leading to programmer mistakes. Future versions will stop returning an error for 1 and just treat 1 and 2 the same. When the verify value is 0, the connection succeeds regardless of the names in the certificate. Use that ability with caution! The default value for this option is 2. This option controls checking the server's certificate's claimed identity. The server could be lying. To control lying, see CUR- LOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER(3). LIMITATIONS
DarwinSSL: If verify value is 0, then SNI is also disabled. SNI is a TLS extension that sends the hostname to the server. The server may use that information to do such things as sending back a specific certificate for the hostname, or forwarding the request to a specific origin server. Some hostnames may be inaccessible if SNI is not sent. NSS: If CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER(3) is zero, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST(3) is also set to zero and cannot be overridden. DEFAULT
2 PROTOCOLS
All TLS based protocols: HTTPS, FTPS, IMAPS, POP3S, SMTPS etc. EXAMPLE
CURL *curl = curl_easy_init(); if(curl) { curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com"); /* Set the default value: strict name check please */ curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST, 2L); curl_easy_perform(curl); } AVAILABILITY
If built TLS enabled. RETURN VALUE
Returns CURLE_OK if TLS is supported, and CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION if not. If 1 is set as argument, CURLE_BAD_FUNCTION_ARGUMENT is returned. SEE ALSO
