NAME¶
CURLOPT_PROXY_SSLKEY_BLOB - private key for proxy cert from memory blob
SYNOPSIS¶
#include <curl/curl.h> CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_PROXY_SSLKEY_BLOB,
struct curl_blob *blob);
DESCRIPTION¶
Pass a pointer to a curl_blob structure that contains information (pointer and size) about the private key for connecting to the HTTPS proxy. Compatible with OpenSSL and Rustls. The format (like "PEM") must be specified with CURLOPT_PROXY_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.
DEFAULT¶
NULL
PROTOCOLS¶
This functionality affects all TLS based protocols: HTTPS, FTPS, IMAPS, POP3S, SMTPS etc. only
This option works only with the following TLS backends: OpenSSL and Rustls
EXAMPLE¶
extern char *certificateData; /* point to data */
extern size_t filesize; /* size of data */
extern char *privateKeyData; /* point to data */
extern size_t privateKeySize; /* size */
int main(void)
{
CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
if(curl) {
CURLcode result;
struct curl_blob blob;
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com/");
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_PROXY, "https://proxy.example");
blob.data = certificateData;
blob.len = filesize;
blob.flags = CURL_BLOB_COPY;
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_PROXY_SSLCERT_BLOB, &blob);
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_PROXY_SSLCERTTYPE, "PEM");
blob.data = privateKeyData;
blob.len = privateKeySize;
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_PROXY_SSLKEY_BLOB, &blob);
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_PROXY_KEYPASSWD, "s3cret");
result = curl_easy_perform(curl);
curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
}
}
AVAILABILITY¶
Added in curl 7.71.0
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).
