This still allows users to explictily ask for 1.0 or 1.1 as the minimum version. If the TLS library allows it. Starting with this change, the CURL_SSLVERSION_DEFAULT value is no longer used as minimum version when the TLS backend are called. This also makes curl set the minimum version to 1.2 independently of libcurl for the rare case where a newer curl tool would use an older libcurl.

# NAME
|
|
|
|
CURLOPT_SSLVERSION - preferred TLS/SSL version
|
|
|
|
# SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
~~~c
|
|
#include <curl/curl.h>
|
|
|
|
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_SSLVERSION, long version);

# DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
Pass a long as parameter to control which version range of SSL/TLS versions to
|
|
use.
|
|
|
|
The SSL and TLS versions have typically developed from the most insecure
|
|
version to be more and more secure in this order through history: SSL v2,
|
|
SSLv3, TLS v1.0, TLS v1.1, TLS v1.2 and the most recent TLS v1.3.
|
|
|
|
Use one of the available defines for this purpose. The available options are:
|
|
|
|
## CURL_SSLVERSION_DEFAULT
|
|
|
|
The default acceptable version range. The minimum acceptable version is by
|
|
default TLS v1.2 since 8.16.0 (unless the TLS library has a stricter rule).
|
|
|
|
## CURL_SSLVERSION_TLSv1
|
|
|
|
TLS v1.0 or later
|
|
|
|
## CURL_SSLVERSION_SSLv2
|
|
|
|
SSL v2 - refused
|
|
|
|
## CURL_SSLVERSION_SSLv3
|
|
|
|
SSL v3 - refused
|
|
|
|
## CURL_SSLVERSION_TLSv1_0
|
|
|
|
TLS v1.0 or later (Added in 7.34.0)
|
|
|
|
## CURL_SSLVERSION_TLSv1_1
|
|
|
|
TLS v1.1 or later (Added in 7.34.0)
|
|
|
|
## CURL_SSLVERSION_TLSv1_2
|
|
|
|
TLS v1.2 or later (Added in 7.34.0)
|
|
|
|
## CURL_SSLVERSION_TLSv1_3
|
|
|
|
TLS v1.3 or later (Added in 7.52.0)
|
|
|
|
##
|
|
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|
## CURL_SSLVERSION_MAX_DEFAULT
|
|
|
|
The flag defines the maximum supported TLS version by libcurl, or the default
|
|
value from the SSL library is used. libcurl uses a sensible default maximum,
|
|
which was TLS v1.2 up to before 7.61.0 and is TLS v1.3 since then - assuming
|
|
the TLS library support it. (Added in 7.54.0)
|
|
|
|
## CURL_SSLVERSION_MAX_TLSv1_0
|
|
|
|
The flag defines maximum supported TLS version as TLS v1.0.
|
|
(Added in 7.54.0)
|
|
|
|
## CURL_SSLVERSION_MAX_TLSv1_1
|
|
|
|
The flag defines maximum supported TLS version as TLS v1.1.
|
|
(Added in 7.54.0)
|
|
|
|
## CURL_SSLVERSION_MAX_TLSv1_2
|
|
|
|
The flag defines maximum supported TLS version as TLS v1.2.
|
|
(Added in 7.54.0)
|
|
|
|
## CURL_SSLVERSION_MAX_TLSv1_3
|
|
|
|
The flag defines maximum supported TLS version as TLS v1.3.
|
|
(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%

|
|
# EXAMPLE
|
|
|
|
~~~c
|
|
int main(void)
|
|
{
|
|
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, (long)CURL_SSLVERSION_TLSv1);
|
|
|
|
/* Perform the request */
|
|
curl_easy_perform(curl);
|
|
}
|
|
}

# HISTORY
|
|
|
|
SSLv2 is disabled by default since 7.18.1. Other SSL versions availability may
|
|
vary depending on which backend libcurl has been built to use.
|
|
|
|
SSLv3 is disabled by default since 7.39.0.
|
|
|
|
SSLv2 and SSLv3 are refused completely since curl 7.77.0
|
|
|
|
Since 8.10.0 wolfSSL is fully supported. Before 8.10.0 the MAX macros were not
|
|
supported with wolfSSL and the other macros did not set a minimum, but
|
|
restricted the TLS version to only the specified one.
|
|
|
|
Rustls support added in 8.10.0.

|
# RETURN VALUE
|
|
|
|
curl_easy_setopt(3) returns a CURLcode indicating success or error.
|
|
|
|
CURLE_OK (0) means everything was OK, non-zero means an error occurred, see
|
|
libcurl-errors(3).
