Gilles Vollant 77fc3859b2 SSL: support in-memory CA certs for some backends
- New options CURLOPT_CAINFO_BLOB and CURLOPT_PROXY_CAINFO_BLOB to
  specify in-memory PEM certificates for OpenSSL, Schannel (Windows)
  and Secure Transport (Apple) SSL backends.

Prior to this change PEM certificates could only be imported from a file
and not from memory.

.TH CURLOPT_CAINFO_BLOB 3 "31 March 2021" "libcurl 7.77.0" "curl_easy_setopt options"
.SH NAME
CURLOPT_CAINFO_BLOB \- Certificate Authority (CA) bundle in PEM format
.SH SYNOPSIS
#include <curl/curl.h>
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_CAINFO_BLOB, struct curl_blob *stblob);
.SH DESCRIPTION
Pass a pointer to a curl_blob structure, which contains information (pointer
and size) about a memory block with binary data of PEM encoded content holding
one or more certificates to verify the HTTPS server with.
If \fICURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER(3)\fP is zero and you avoid verifying the
server's certificate, \fICURLOPT_CAINFO_BLOB(3)\fP is not needed.
This option overrides \fICURLOPT_CAINFO(3)\fP.
.SH DEFAULT
NULL
.SH PROTOCOLS
All TLS based protocols: HTTPS, FTPS, IMAPS, POP3S, SMTPS etc.
.SH EXAMPLE
.nf
char *strpem; /* strpem must point to a PEM string */
CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
if(curl) {
struct curl_blob blob;
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com/");
blob.data = strpem;
blob.len = strlen(strpem);
blob.flags = CURL_BLOB_COPY;
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_CAINFO_BLOB, &blob);
ret = curl_easy_perform(curl);
curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
}
.fi
.SH AVAILABILITY
Added in 7.77.0.
This option is supported by the OpenSSL, Secure
Transport and Schannel backends.
.SH RETURN VALUE
Returns CURLE_OK if the option is supported, CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION if not, or
CURLE_OUT_OF_MEMORY if there was insufficient heap space.
