CURLOPT_ISSUERCERT(3)					     curl_easy_setopt options					     CURLOPT_ISSUERCERT(3)

NAME
CURLOPT_ISSUERCERT - issuer SSL certificate filename SYNOPSIS
#include <curl/curl.h> CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_ISSUERCERT, char *file); DESCRIPTION
Pass a char * to a zero terminated string naming a file holding a CA certificate in PEM format. If the option is set, an additional check against the peer certificate is performed to verify the issuer is indeed the one associated with the certificate provided by the option. This additional check is useful in multi-level PKI where one needs to enforce that the peer certificate is from a specific branch of the tree. This option makes sense only when used in combination with the CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER(3) option. Otherwise, the result of the check is not considered as failure. A specific error code (CURLE_SSL_ISSUER_ERROR) is defined with the option, which is returned if the setup of the SSL/TLS session has failed due to a mismatch with the issuer of peer certificate (CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER(3) has to be set too for the check to fail). (Added in 7.19.0) The application does not have to keep the string around after setting this option. DEFAULT
NULL PROTOCOLS
All TLS-based protocols EXAMPLE
TODO AVAILABILITY
If built TLS enabled 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_CRLFILE(3)					     curl_easy_setopt options						CURLOPT_CRLFILE(3)

NAME
CURLOPT_CRLFILE - specify a Certificate Revocation List file SYNOPSIS
#include <curl/curl.h> CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_CRLFILE, char *file); DESCRIPTION
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_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
