CURLOPT_PROXY_TLS13_CIPHERS explained

Name

CURLOPT_PROXY_TLS13_CIPHERS - ciphers suites for proxy TLS 1.3

Synopsis

#include <curl/curl.h>
 
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_PROXY_TLS13_CIPHERS,
                          char *list);

Description

Pass a char pointer, pointing to a null-terminated string holding the list of cipher suites to use for the TLS 1.3 connection to a proxy. The list must be syntactically correct, it consists of one or more cipher suite strings separated by colons.

For setting TLS 1.2 (1.1, 1.0) ciphers see CURLOPT_PROXY_SSL_CIPHER_LIST.

A valid example of a cipher list is:

"TLS_AES_128_GCM_SHA256:TLS_CHACHA20_POLY1305_SHA256"

Find more details about cipher lists on this URL:

https://curl.se/docs/ssl-ciphers.html

The application does not have to keep the string around after setting this option.

Using this option multiple times makes the last set string override the previous ones. Set it to NULL to disable its use again.

Default

NULL, use internal built-in list

Protocols

This functionality affects all TLS based protocols: HTTPS, FTPS, IMAPS, POP3S, SMTPS etc.

This option works only with the following TLS backends: OpenSSL, Schannel, mbedTLS, rustls and wolfSSL

Example

int main(void)
{
  CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
  if(curl) {
    CURLcode res;
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com/");
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_PROXY_TLS13_CIPHERS,
                     "TLS_CHACHA20_POLY1305_SHA256");
    res = curl_easy_perform(curl);
    curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
  }
}

History

OpenSSL support added in 7.61.0, available when built with OpenSSL >= 1.1.1. Schannel support added in 7.87.0. LibreSSL support added in 8.3.0, available when built with LibreSSL >= 3.4.1. wolfSSL support added in 8.10.0. mbedTLS support added in 8.10.0, available when built with mbedTLS >= 3.6.0. Rustls support added in 8.10.0.

Before curl 8.10.0 with mbedTLS or wolfSSL, TLS 1.3 cipher suites were set by using the CURLOPT_PROXY_SSL_CIPHER_LIST option.

Availability

Added in curl 7.61.0

Return value

Returns CURLE_OK if supported, CURLE_NOT_BUILT_IN otherwise.
