CURLOPT_SSLKEY_BLOB(3) | Library Functions Manual | CURLOPT_SSLKEY_BLOB(3) |
NAME¶
CURLOPT_SSLKEY_BLOB - private key for client cert from memory blob
SYNOPSIS¶
#include <curl/curl.h> CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_SSLKEY_BLOB,
struct curl_blob *blob);
DESCRIPTION¶
Pass a pointer to a curl_blob structure, which contains information (pointer and size) for a private key. Compatible with OpenSSL. The format (like "PEM") must be specified with CURLOPT_SSLKEYTYPE(3).
If the blob is initialized with the flags member of struct curl_blob set to CURL_BLOB_COPY, the application does not have to keep the buffer around after setting this.
This option is an alternative to CURLOPT_SSLKEY(3) which instead expects a filename as input.
DEFAULT¶
NULL
PROTOCOLS¶
All TLS based protocols: HTTPS, FTPS, IMAPS, POP3S, SMTPS etc.
This option works only with the following TLS backends: OpenSSL
EXAMPLE¶
extern char *certificateData; /* point to cert */ extern size_t filesize; /* size of cert */ extern char *privateKeyData; /* point to key */ extern size_t privateKeySize; /* size of key */ int main(void) {
CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
if(curl) {
CURLcode res;
struct curl_blob blob;
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com/");
blob.data = certificateData;
blob.len = filesize;
blob.flags = CURL_BLOB_COPY;
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_SSLCERT_BLOB, &blob);
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_SSLCERTTYPE, "PEM");
blob.data = privateKeyData;
blob.len = privateKeySize;
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_SSLKEY_BLOB, &blob);
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_KEYPASSWD, "s3cret");
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_SSLKEYTYPE, "PEM");
res = curl_easy_perform(curl);
curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
} }
AVAILABILITY¶
Added in 7.71.0. This option is supported by the OpenSSL backends.
RETURN VALUE¶
Returns CURLE_OK if TLS enabled, CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION if not, or CURLE_OUT_OF_MEMORY if there was insufficient heap space.
