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+, since curl 7.85 for Schannel, since curl 8.10.0 for wolfSSL and since curl 8.10.0 for mbedTLS 3.6.0+ with options CURLOPT_TLS13_CIPHERS and --tls13-ciphers . Before curl 8.10.0 with mbedTLS or wolfSSL, TLS 1.3 cipher suites where set 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.

Schannel

Schannel allows the enabling and disabling of encryption algorithms, but not specific cipher suites, prior to TLS 1.3. The algorithms are defined by Microsoft.

The algorithms below are for TLS 1.2 and earlier. TLS 1.3 is covered in the next section.

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 returns error CURLE_SSL_CONNECT_ERROR (35) SEC_E_ALGORITHM_MISMATCH and the request fails.

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 Note that the supported ciphers in this case follow the OS version, so if you are running an outdated OS you might still be supporting weak ciphers.

TLS 1.3 cipher suites

You can set TLS 1.3 ciphers for Schannel by using CURLOPT_TLS13_CIPHERS or --tls13-ciphers with the names below.

If TLS 1.3 cipher suites are set then libcurl adds or restricts Schannel TLS 1.3 algorithms automatically. Essentially, libcurl is emulating support for individual TLS 1.3 cipher suites since Schannel does not support it directly.

TLS_AES_256_GCM_SHA384 TLS_AES_128_GCM_SHA256 TLS_CHACHA20_POLY1305_SHA256 TLS_AES_128_CCM_8_SHA256 TLS_AES_128_CCM_SHA256

Note if you set TLS 1.3 ciphers without also setting the minimum TLS version to 1.3 then it is possible Schannel may negotiate an earlier TLS version and cipher suite if your libcurl and OS settings allow it. You can set the minimum TLS version by using CURLOPT_SSLVERSION or --tlsv1.3.
