By default, every secure connection curl makes is verified to be secure before
|
|
the transfer takes place. This option makes curl skip the verification step
|
|
and proceed without checking.
|
|
|
|
When this option is not used for protocols using TLS, curl verifies the
|
|
server's TLS certificate before it continues: that the certificate contains
|
|
the right name which matches the host name used in the URL and that the
|
|
certificate has been signed by a CA certificate present in the cert store.

|
|
|
|
For SFTP and SCP, this option makes curl skip the *known_hosts* verification.
|
|
*known_hosts* is a file normally stored in the user's home directory in the
|
|
\&.ssh subdirectory, which contains host names and their public keys.
|
|
|
|
**WARNING**: using this option makes the transfer insecure.
