.TH CURLINFO_TLS_SSL_PTR 3 "23 Feb 2016" "libcurl 7.48.0" "curl_easy_getinfo options"
|
|
.SH NAME
|
|
CURLINFO_TLS_SESSION, CURLINFO_TLS_SSL_PTR \- get TLS session info
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
.nf
|
|
#include <curl/curl.h>
|
|
|
|
CURLcode curl_easy_getinfo(CURL *handle, CURLINFO_TLS_SSL_PTR,
|
|
struct curl_tlssessioninfo **session);
|
|
|
|
/* if you need compatibility with libcurl < 7.48.0 use
|
|
CURLINFO_TLS_SESSION instead: */
|
|
|
|
CURLcode curl_easy_getinfo(CURL *handle, CURLINFO_TLS_SESSION,
|
|
struct curl_tlssessioninfo **session);
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
Pass a pointer to a 'struct curl_tlssessioninfo *'. The pointer will be
|
|
initialized to refer to a 'struct curl_tlssessioninfo *' that will contain an
|
|
enum indicating the SSL library used for the handshake and a pointer to the
|
|
respective internal TLS session structure of this underlying SSL library.
|
|
|
|
This option may be useful for example to extract certificate information in a
|
|
format convenient for further processing, such as manual validation. Refer to
|
|
the \fBLIMITATIONS\fP section.
|
|
|
|
.nf
|
|
struct curl_tlssessioninfo {
|
|
curl_sslbackend backend;
|
|
void *internals;
|
|
};
|
|
.fi
|
|
|
|
The \fIbackend\fP struct member is one of the defines in the CURLSSLBACKEND_*
|
|
series: CURLSSLBACKEND_NONE (when built without TLS support),
|
|
CURLSSLBACKEND_AXTLS, CURLSSLBACKEND_CYASSL, CURLSSLBACKEND_DARWINSSL,
|
|
CURLSSLBACKEND_GNUTLS, CURLSSLBACKEND_GSKIT, CURLSSLBACKEND_MBEDTLS,
|
|
CURLSSLBACKEND_NSS, CURLSSLBACKEND_OPENSSL, CURLSSLBACKEND_POLARSSL or
|
|
CURLSSLBACKEND_SCHANNEL. (Note that the OpenSSL forks are all reported as just
|
|
OpenSSL here.)
|
|
|
|
The \fIinternals\fP struct member will point to a TLS library specific pointer
|
|
for the active ("in use") SSL connection, with the following underlying types:
|
|
.RS
|
|
.IP GnuTLS
|
|
gnutls_session_t
|
|
.IP gskit
|
|
gsk_handle
|
|
.IP NSS
|
|
PRFileDesc *
|
|
.IP OpenSSL
|
|
CURLINFO_TLS_SESSION: SSL_CTX *
|
|
|
|
CURLINFO_TLS_SSL_PTR: SSL *
|
|
.RE
|
|
Since 7.48.0 the \fIinternals\fP member can point to these other SSL backends
|
|
as well:
|
|
.RS
|
|
.IP axTLS
|
|
SSL *
|
|
.IP mbedTLS
|
|
mbedtls_ssl_session *
|
|
.IP PolarSSL
|
|
ssl_session *
|
|
.IP "Secure Channel (WinSSL)"
|
|
CtxtHandle *
|
|
.IP "Secure Transport (DarwinSSL)"
|
|
SSLContext *
|
|
.IP "WolfSSL (formerly CyaSSL)"
|
|
SSL *
|
|
.RE
|
|
|
|
If the \fIinternals\fP pointer is NULL then either the SSL backend is not
|
|
supported or an SSL session has not yet been established.
|
|
.SH LIMITATIONS
|
|
\fBThis option has some limitations that could make it unsafe when it comes to
|
|
the manual verification of certificates.\fP
|
|
|
|
This option only retrieves the first in-use SSL session pointer for your easy
|
|
handle, however your easy handle may have more than one in-use SSL session if
|
|
using FTP over SSL. That is because the FTP protocol has a control channel and
|
|
a data channel and one or both may be over SSL. \fBCurrently there is no way to
|
|
retrieve a second in-use SSL session associated with an easy handle.\fP
|
|
|
|
This option has not been thoroughly tested with plaintext protocols that can be
|
|
upgraded/downgraded to/from SSL: FTP, SMTP, POP3, IMAP when used with
|
|
\fICURLOPT_USE_SSL(3)\fP. Though you will be able to retrieve the SSL pointer,
|
|
it's possible that before you can do that \fBdata (including auth) may have
|
|
already been sent over a connection after it was upgraded.\fP
|
|
|
|
Renegotiation. If unsafe renegotiation or renegotiation in a way that the
|
|
certificate is allowed to change is allowed by your SSL library this may occur
|
|
and the certificate may change, and \fBdata may continue to be sent or received
|
|
after renegotiation but before you are able to get the (possibly) changed SSL
|
|
pointer,\fP with the (possibly) changed certificate information.
|
|
|
|
If you are using OpenSSL or wolfSSL then \fICURLOPT_SSL_CTX_FUNCTION(3)\fP can
|
|
be used to set a certificate verification callback in the CTX. That is safer
|
|
than using this option to poll for certificate changes and doesn't suffer from
|
|
any of the problems above. There is currently no way in libcurl to set a
|
|
verification callback for the other SSL backends.
|
|
|
|
How are you using this option? Are you affected by any of these limitations?

.SH PROTOCOLS
|
|
All TLS-based
|
|
.SH EXAMPLE
|
|
TODO
|
|
.SH AVAILABILITY
|
|
Added in 7.48.0.
|
|
|
|
This option supersedes \fICURLINFO_TLS_SESSION(3)\fP which was added in 7.34.0.
|
|
This option is exactly the same as that option except in the case of OpenSSL.
|
|
.SH RETURN VALUE
|
|
Returns CURLE_OK if the option is supported, and CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION if not.
