Proxytunnel 1.9.0 (Default branch)
Proxytunnel is a program that connects stdin and stdout to a server somewhere in the Internet through an industry standard HTTPS proxy. It's mostly used as a backend for OpenSSH's ProxyCommand, and as a proxy backend for Putty. It can also be used for other proxy-traversing purposes. License: GNU General Public License (GPL) Changes:
Remote proxy authentication was added. Remote proxy SSL was added. Changes were made to proxy authentication options. It is now possible to set environment variables for proxy and remote proxy authentication. HTTP_PROXY environment variables are supported. Fixes were made for compilation with -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2. Improvements were made to output, verbose output, and help. Error output on the Windows build was disabled.Image

curlopt_proxy_ssl_verifyhost

CURLOPT_PROXY_SSL_VERIFYHOST(3) 			     curl_easy_setopt options				   CURLOPT_PROXY_SSL_VERIFYHOST(3)

NAME

       CURLOPT_PROXY_SSL_VERIFYHOST - verify the proxy certificate's name against host

SYNOPSIS

       #include <curl/curl.h>

       CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_PROXY_SSL_VERIFYHOST, long verify);

DESCRIPTION

       Pass a long set to 2L as asking curl to verify in the HTTPS proxy's certificate name fields against the proxy name.

       This option determines whether libcurl verifies that the proxy cert contains the correct name for the name it is known as.

       When  CURLOPT_PROXY_SSL_VERIFYHOST(3)  is 2, the proxy certificate must indicate that the server is the proxy to which you meant to connect
       to, or the connection fails.

       Curl considers the proxy the intended one when the Common Name field or a Subject Alternate Name field in the certificate matches the  host
       name in the proxy string which you told curl to use.

       When the verify value is 1L, curl_easy_setopt will return an error and the option value will not be changed due to old legacy reasons.

       When the verify value is 0L, the connection succeeds regardless of the names used in the certificate. Use that ability with caution!

       See  also  CURLOPT_PROXY_SSL_VERIFYPEER(3)  to  verify the digital signature of the proxy certificate.  If libcurl is built against NSS and
       CURLOPT_PROXY_SSL_VERIFYPEER(3) is zero, CURLOPT_PROXY_SSL_VERIFYHOST(3) is also set to zero and cannot be overridden.

DEFAULT

       2

PROTOCOLS

       All protocols when used over a HTTPS proxy.

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_PROXY_SSL_VERIFYHOST, 2L);

	 curl_easy_perform(curl);
       }

AVAILABILITY

       Added in 7.52.0.

       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.
