easy:SetOpt_SSL_VerifyHost(verify)
verify
.
This option determines whether libcurl verifies that the server cert is for the server it is known as.
When negotiating TLS and SSL connections, the server sends a certificate indicating its identity.
When #CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST
is 2, that certificate must indicate that
the server is the server to which you meant to connect, or the connection
fails. Simply put, it means it has to have the same name in the certificate as
is in the URL you operate against.
Curl considers the server the intended one when the Common Name field or a Subject Alternate Name field in the certificate matches the host name in the URL to which you told Curl to connect.
When the verify
value is 1, easy:SetOpt() will return an error
and the option value will not be changed. It was previously (in 7.28.0 and
earlier) a debug option of some sorts, but it is no longer supported due to
frequently leading to programmer mistakes. Future versions will stop returning
an error for 1 and just treat 1 and 2 the same.
When the verify
value is 0, the connection succeeds regardless of the
names in the certificate. Use that ability with caution!
The default value for this option is 2.
This option controls checking the server's certificate's claimed identity.
The server could be lying. To control lying, see
#CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER
