CURLOPT_SSL_SIGNATURE_ALGORITHMS - signature algorithms to use for TLS

Availability

       Added in curl 8.14.0

Default

       NULL, use built-in list

Description

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

       A valid example of a signature algorithms list with OpenSSL is:
       "DSA+SHA256:rsa_pss_pss_sha256"

       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.

       Works with OpenSSL and its BoringSSL fork (added in 8.14.0).

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_SSL_SIGNATURE_ALGORITHMS,
                            "DSA+SHA256:rsa_pss_pss_sha256");
           res = curl_easy_perform(curl);
           curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
         }
       }

History

       OpenSSL support added in 8.14.0.

Name

       CURLOPT_SSL_SIGNATURE_ALGORITHMS - signature algorithms to use for TLS

Protocols

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

       This option works only with the following TLS backends: OpenSSL

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).
