# `--proxy-ssl-allow-beast`
|
|
|
|
Do not work around a security flaw in the TLS1.0 protocol known as BEAST when
|
|
communicating to an HTTPS proxy. If this option is not used, the TLS layer may
|
|
use workarounds known to cause interoperability problems with some older
|
|
server implementations.
|
|
|
|
This option only changes how curl does TLS 1.0 with an HTTPS proxy and has no
|
|
effect on later TLS versions.
|
|
|
|
**WARNING**: this option loosens the TLS security, and by using this flag you
|
|
ask for exactly that.
|
|
|
|
Equivalent to --ssl-allow-beast but used in HTTPS proxy context.
