Option to configure SSL CA strings instead of paths

Is it possible (or feasible?) to setup CA information using a supplied string rather than a filesystem path?

I'm a little concerned with someone throwing a bogus CA cert in whatever path I use and then being able to substitute their own endpoint that CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER will believe �

I don't know if this is an openssl restriction or not ...
