# NAME
|
|
|
|
CURLOPT_ISSUERCERT - issuer SSL certificate filename
|
|
|
|
# SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
~~~c
|
|
#include <curl/curl.h>
|
|
|
|
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_ISSUERCERT, char *file);
|
|
~~~
|
|
|
|
# DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
Pass a char pointer to a null-terminated string naming a *file* holding a CA
|
|
certificate in PEM format. If the option is set, an additional check against
|
|
the peer certificate is performed to verify the issuer is indeed the one
|
|
associated with the certificate provided by the option. This additional check
|
|
is useful in multi-level PKI where one needs to enforce that the peer
|
|
certificate is from a specific branch of the tree.
|
|
|
|
This option makes sense only when used in combination with the
|
|
CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER(3) option. Otherwise, the result of the check is
|
|
not considered as failure.
|
|
|
|
A specific error code (CURLE_SSL_ISSUER_ERROR) is defined with the option,
|
|
which is returned if the setup of the SSL/TLS session has failed due to a
|
|
mismatch with the issuer of peer certificate (CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER(3)
|
|
has to be set too for the check to fail). (Added in 7.19.0)
|
|
|
|
The application does not have to keep the string around after setting this
|
|
option.
|
|
|
|
# DEFAULT
|
|
|
|
NULL
|
|
|
|
# PROTOCOLS
|
|
|
|
All TLS-based protocols
|
|
|
|
# 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_ISSUERCERT, "/etc/certs/cacert.pem");
|
|
res = curl_easy_perform(curl);
