NAME

CURLOPT_PROXY_SSLVERSION - set preferred proxy TLS/SSL version

SYNOPSIS

#include <curl/curl.h>

CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_PROXY_SSLVERSION, long version);

DESCRIPTION

Pass a long as parameter to control which version of SSL/TLS to attempt to use when connecting to an HTTPS proxy.

Use one of the available defines for this purpose. The available options are:

CURL_SSLVERSION_DEFAULT: The default action. This will attempt to figure out the remote SSL protocol version.
CURL_SSLVERSION_TLSv1: TLSv1.x
CURL_SSLVERSION_TLSv1_0: TLSv1.0
CURL_SSLVERSION_TLSv1_1: TLSv1.1
CURL_SSLVERSION_TLSv1_2: TLSv1.2
CURL_SSLVERSION_TLSv1_3: TLSv1.3

The maximum TLS version can be set by using one of the CURL_SSLVERSION_MAX_ macros below. It is also possible to OR one of the CURL_SSLVERSION_ macros with one of the CURL_SSLVERSION_MAX_ macros. The MAX macros are not supported for WolfSSL.

CURL_SSLVERSION_MAX_DEFAULT: The flag defines the maximum supported TLS version as TLSv1.2, or the default value from the SSL library. (Added in 7.54.0)
CURL_SSLVERSION_MAX_TLSv1_0: The flag defines maximum supported TLS version as TLSv1.0. (Added in 7.54.0)
CURL_SSLVERSION_MAX_TLSv1_1: The flag defines maximum supported TLS version as TLSv1.1. (Added in 7.54.0)
CURL_SSLVERSION_MAX_TLSv1_2: The flag defines maximum supported TLS version as TLSv1.2. (Added in 7.54.0)
CURL_SSLVERSION_MAX_TLSv1_3: The flag defines maximum supported TLS version as TLSv1.3. (Added in 7.54.0)

In versions of curl prior to 7.54 the CURL_SSLVERSION_TLS options were documented to allow only the specified TLS version, but behavior was inconsistent depending on the TLS library.

DEFAULT

CURL_SSLVERSION_DEFAULT

PROTOCOLS

All

EXAMPLE

CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
if(curl) {
  curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com");

  /* ask libcurl to use TLS version 1.0 or later */
  curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_SSLVERSION, CURL_SSLVERSION_TLSv1);

  /* Perform the request */
  curl_easy_perform(curl);
}

AVAILABILITY

Added in 7.52.0

RETURN VALUE

Returns CURLE_OK if the option is supported, and CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION if not.
