# `--ssl-allow-beast`
|
|
|
|
This option tells curl to not work around a security flaw in the SSL3 and
|
|
TLS1.0 protocols known as BEAST. If this option is not used, the SSL layer may
|
|
use workarounds known to cause interoperability problems with some older SSL
|
|
implementations.
|
|
|
|
**WARNING**: this option loosens the SSL security, and by using this flag you
|
|
ask for exactly that.
