Ciphers

With curl's options CURLOPT_SSL_CIPHER_LIST and --ciphers users can control which ciphers to consider when negotiating TLS connections.

TLS 1.3 ciphers are supported since curl 7.61 for OpenSSL 1.1.1+ with options CURLOPT_TLS13_CIPHERS and --tls13-ciphers . If you are using a different SSL backend you can try setting TLS 1.3 cipher suites by using the respective regular cipher option.

The names of the known ciphers differ depending on which TLS backend that libcurl was built to use. This is an attempt to list known cipher names.

(based on OpenSSL docs)

When specifying multiple cipher names, separate them with colon (:).

Schannel

Schannel allows the enabling and disabling of encryption algorithms, but not specific ciphersuites. They are defined by Microsoft.

There is also the case that the selected algorithm is not supported by the protocol or does not match the ciphers offered by the server during the SSL negotiation. In this case curl will return error CURLE_SSL_CONNECT_ERROR (35) SEC_E_ALGORITHM_MISMATCH and the request will fail.

As of curl 7.77.0, you can also pass SCH_USE_STRONG_CRYPTO as a cipher name to constrain the set of available ciphers as specified in the schannel documentation. Note that the supported ciphers in this case follow the OS version, so if you are running an outdated OS you might still be supporting weak ciphers.
