The file format for each option now features a "Example:" header that can provide one or more examples that get rendered appropriately in the output. All options MUST have at least one example or gen.pl complains at build-time. This fix also does a few other minor format and consistency cleanups. Closes #7654

Help: Allow security flaw to improve interop
|
|
Added: 7.25.0
|
|
Category: tls
|
|
Example: --ssl-allow-beast $URL
|
|
---
|
|
This option tells curl to not work around a security flaw in the SSL3 and
|
|
TLS1.0 protocols known as BEAST. If this option isn't used, the SSL layer may
|
|
use workarounds known to cause interoperability problems with some older SSL
|
|
implementations.
|
|
|
|
**WARNING**: this option loosens the SSL security, and by using this flag you
|
|
ask for exactly that.
