SSL_CONF_cmd(3) OpenSSL SSL_CONF_cmd(3)
NAME
SSL_CONF_cmd_value_type, SSL_CONF_cmd - send configuration command
LIBRARY
libcrypto, -lcrypto
SYNOPSIS
#include <openssl/ssl.h>
int SSL_CONF_cmd(SSL_CONF_CTX *ctx, const char *option, const char *value);
int SSL_CONF_cmd_value_type(SSL_CONF_CTX *ctx, const char *option);
DESCRIPTION
The function SSL_CONF_cmd() performs configuration operation option
with optional parameter value on ctx. Its purpose is to simplify
application configuration of SSL_CTX or SSL structures by providing a
common framework for command line options or configuration files.
SSL_CONF_cmd_value_type() returns the type of value that option refers
to.
SUPPORTED COMMAND LINE COMMANDS
Currently supported option names for command lines (i.e. when the flag
SSL_CONF_FLAG_CMDLINE is set) are listed below. Note: all option names
are case sensitive. Unless otherwise stated commands can be used by
both clients and servers and the value parameter is not used. The
default prefix for command line commands is - and that is reflected
below.
-bugs
Various bug workarounds are set, same as setting SSL_OP_ALL.
-no_comp
Disables support for SSL/TLS compression, same as setting
SSL_OP_NO_COMPRESSION. As of OpenSSL 1.1.0, compression is off by
default.
-comp
Enables support for SSL/TLS compression, same as clearing
SSL_OP_NO_COMPRESSION. This command was introduced in OpenSSL
1.1.0. As of OpenSSL 1.1.0, compression is off by default.
-no_ticket
Disables support for session tickets, same as setting
SSL_OP_NO_TICKET.
-serverpref
Use server and not client preference order when determining which
cipher suite, signature algorithm or elliptic curve to use for an
incoming connection. Equivalent to
SSL_OP_CIPHER_SERVER_PREFERENCE. Only used by servers.
-client_renegotiation
Allows servers to accept client-initiated renegotiation. Equivalent
to setting SSL_OP_ALLOW_CLIENT_RENEGOTIATION. Only used by
servers.
-legacy_renegotiation
Permits the use of unsafe legacy renegotiation. Equivalent to
setting SSL_OP_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION.
-no_renegotiation
Disables all attempts at renegotiation in TLSv1.2 and earlier, same
as setting SSL_OP_NO_RENEGOTIATION.
-no_resumption_on_reneg
Sets SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION. Only used by
servers.
-legacy_server_connect, -no_legacy_server_connect
Permits or prohibits the use of unsafe legacy renegotiation for
OpenSSL clients only. Equivalent to setting or clearing
SSL_OP_LEGACY_SERVER_CONNECT.
-prioritize_chacha
Prioritize ChaCha ciphers when the client has a ChaCha20 cipher at
the top of its preference list. This usually indicates a client
without AES hardware acceleration (e.g. mobile) is in use.
Equivalent to SSL_OP_PRIORITIZE_CHACHA. Only used by servers.
Requires -serverpref.
-allow_no_dhe_kex
In TLSv1.3 allow a non-(ec)dhe based key exchange mode on
resumption. This means that there will be no forward secrecy for
the resumed session.
-strict
Enables strict mode protocol handling. Equivalent to setting
SSL_CERT_FLAG_TLS_STRICT.
-sigalgs algs
This sets the supported signature algorithms for TLSv1.2 and
TLSv1.3. For clients this value is used directly for the supported
signature algorithms extension. For servers it is used to determine
which signature algorithms to support.
The algs argument should be a colon separated list of signature
algorithms in order of decreasing preference of the form
algorithm+hash or signature_scheme. algorithm is one of RSA, DSA or
ECDSA and hash is a supported algorithm OID short name such as
SHA1, SHA224, SHA256, SHA384 of SHA512. Note: algorithm and hash
names are case sensitive. signature_scheme is one of the signature
schemes defined in TLSv1.3, specified using the IETF name, e.g.,
ecdsa_secp256r1_sha256, ed25519, or rsa_pss_pss_sha256.
If this option is not set then all signature algorithms supported
by the OpenSSL library are permissible.
Note: algorithms which specify a PKCS#1 v1.5 signature scheme
(either by using RSA as the algorithm or by using one of the
rsa_pkcs1_* identifiers) are ignored in TLSv1.3 and will not be
negotiated.
-client_sigalgs algs
This sets the supported signature algorithms associated with client
authentication for TLSv1.2 and TLSv1.3. For servers the algs is
used in the signature_algorithms field of a CertificateRequest
message. For clients it is used to determine which signature
algorithm to use with the client certificate. If a server does not
request a certificate this option has no effect.
The syntax of algs is identical to -sigalgs. If not set, then the
value set for -sigalgs will be used instead.
-groups groups
This sets the supported groups. For clients, the groups are sent
using the supported groups extension. For servers, it is used to
determine which group to use. This setting affects groups used for
signatures (in TLSv1.2 and earlier) and key exchange. The first
group listed will also be used for the key_share sent by a client
in a TLSv1.3 ClientHello.
The groups argument is a colon separated list of groups. The group
can be either the NIST name (e.g. P-256), some other commonly used
name where applicable (e.g. X25519, ffdhe2048) or an OpenSSL OID
name (e.g. prime256v1). Group names are case sensitive. The list
should be in order of preference with the most preferred group
first.
Currently supported groups for TLSv1.3 are P-256, P-384, P-521,
X25519, X448, ffdhe2048, ffdhe3072, ffdhe4096, ffdhe6144,
ffdhe8192.
-curves groups
This is a synonym for the -groups command.
-named_curve curve
This sets the temporary curve used for ephemeral ECDH modes. Only
used by servers.
The groups argument is a curve name or the special value auto which
picks an appropriate curve based on client and server preferences.
The curve can be either the NIST name (e.g. P-256) or an OpenSSL
OID name (e.g. prime256v1). Curve names are case sensitive.
-cipher ciphers
Sets the TLSv1.2 and below ciphersuite list to ciphers. This list
will be combined with any configured TLSv1.3 ciphersuites. Note:
syntax checking of ciphers is currently not performed unless a SSL
or SSL_CTX structure is associated with ctx.
-ciphersuites 1.3ciphers
Sets the available ciphersuites for TLSv1.3 to value. This is a
colon-separated list of TLSv1.3 ciphersuite names in order of
preference. This list will be combined any configured TLSv1.2 and
below ciphersuites. See openssl-ciphers(1) for more information.
-min_protocol minprot, -max_protocol maxprot
Sets the minimum and maximum supported protocol. Currently
supported protocol values are SSLv3, TLSv1, TLSv1.1, TLSv1.2,
TLSv1.3 for TLS; DTLSv1, DTLSv1.2 for DTLS, and None for no limit.
If either the lower or upper bound is not specified then only the
other bound applies, if specified. If your application supports
both TLS and DTLS you can specify any of these options twice, once
with a bound for TLS and again with an appropriate bound for DTLS.
To restrict the supported protocol versions use these commands
rather than the deprecated alternative commands below.
-record_padding padding
Attempts to pad TLSv1.3 records so that they are a multiple of
padding in length on send. A padding of 0 or 1 turns off padding.
Otherwise, the padding must be >1 or <=16384.
-debug_broken_protocol
Ignored.
-no_middlebox
Turn off "middlebox compatibility", as described below.
Additional Options
The following options are accepted by SSL_CONF_cmd(), but are not
processed by the OpenSSL commands.
-cert file
Attempts to use file as the certificate for the appropriate
context. It currently uses SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file() if
an SSL_CTX structure is set or SSL_use_certificate_file() with
filetype PEM if an SSL structure is set. This option is only
supported if certificate operations are permitted.
-key file
Attempts to use file as the private key for the appropriate
context. This option is only supported if certificate operations
are permitted. Note: if no -key option is set then a private key is
not loaded unless the flag SSL_CONF_FLAG_REQUIRE_PRIVATE is set.
-dhparam file
Attempts to use file as the set of temporary DH parameters for the
appropriate context. This option is only supported if certificate
operations are permitted.
-no_ssl3, -no_tls1, -no_tls1_1, -no_tls1_2, -no_tls1_3
Disables protocol support for SSLv3, TLSv1.0, TLSv1.1, TLSv1.2 or
TLSv1.3 by setting the corresponding options SSL_OP_NO_SSLv3,
SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1, SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1, SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_2 and
SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_3 respectively. These options are deprecated, use
-min_protocol and -max_protocol instead.
-anti_replay, -no_anti_replay
Switches replay protection, on or off respectively. With replay
protection on, OpenSSL will automatically detect if a session
ticket has been used more than once, TLSv1.3 has been negotiated,
and early data is enabled on the server. A full handshake is forced
if a session ticket is used a second or subsequent time. Anti-
Replay is on by default unless overridden by a configuration file
and is only used by servers. Anti-replay measures are required for
compliance with the TLSv1.3 specification. Some applications may be
able to mitigate the replay risks in other ways and in such cases
the built-in OpenSSL functionality is not required. Switching off
anti-replay is equivalent to SSL_OP_NO_ANTI_REPLAY.
SUPPORTED CONFIGURATION FILE COMMANDS
Currently supported option names for configuration files (i.e., when
the flag SSL_CONF_FLAG_FILE is set) are listed below. All configuration
file option names are case insensitive so signaturealgorithms is
recognised as well as SignatureAlgorithms. Unless otherwise stated the
value names are also case insensitive.
Note: the command prefix (if set) alters the recognised option values.
CipherString
Sets the ciphersuite list for TLSv1.2 and below to value. This list
will be combined with any configured TLSv1.3 ciphersuites. Note:
syntax checking of value is currently not performed unless an SSL
or SSL_CTX structure is associated with ctx.
Ciphersuites
Sets the available ciphersuites for TLSv1.3 to value. This is a
colon-separated list of TLSv1.3 ciphersuite names in order of
preference. This list will be combined any configured TLSv1.2 and
below ciphersuites. See openssl-ciphers(1) for more information.
Certificate
Attempts to use the file value as the certificate for the
appropriate context. It currently uses
SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file() if an SSL_CTX structure is set
or SSL_use_certificate_file() with filetype PEM if an SSL structure
is set. This option is only supported if certificate operations are
permitted.
PrivateKey
Attempts to use the file value as the private key for the
appropriate context. This option is only supported if certificate
operations are permitted. Note: if no PrivateKey option is set then
a private key is not loaded unless the
SSL_CONF_FLAG_REQUIRE_PRIVATE is set.
ChainCAFile, ChainCAPath, VerifyCAFile, VerifyCAPath
These options indicate a file or directory used for building
certificate chains or verifying certificate chains. These options
are only supported if certificate operations are permitted.
RequestCAFile
This option indicates a file containing a set of certificates in
PEM form. The subject names of the certificates are sent to the
peer in the certificate_authorities extension for TLS 1.3 (in
ClientHello or CertificateRequest) or in a certificate request for
previous versions or TLS.
ServerInfoFile
Attempts to use the file value in the "serverinfo" extension using
the function SSL_CTX_use_serverinfo_file.
DHParameters
Attempts to use the file value as the set of temporary DH
parameters for the appropriate context. This option is only
supported if certificate operations are permitted.
RecordPadding
Attempts to pad TLSv1.3 records so that they are a multiple of
value in length on send. A value of 0 or 1 turns off padding.
Otherwise, the value must be >1 or <=16384.
SignatureAlgorithms
This sets the supported signature algorithms for TLSv1.2 and
TLSv1.3. For clients this value is used directly for the supported
signature algorithms extension. For servers it is used to determine
which signature algorithms to support.
The value argument should be a colon separated list of signature
algorithms in order of decreasing preference of the form
algorithm+hash or signature_scheme. algorithm is one of RSA, DSA or
ECDSA and hash is a supported algorithm OID short name such as
SHA1, SHA224, SHA256, SHA384 of SHA512. Note: algorithm and hash
names are case sensitive. signature_scheme is one of the signature
schemes defined in TLSv1.3, specified using the IETF name, e.g.,
ecdsa_secp256r1_sha256, ed25519, or rsa_pss_pss_sha256.
If this option is not set then all signature algorithms supported
by the OpenSSL library are permissible.
Note: algorithms which specify a PKCS#1 v1.5 signature scheme
(either by using RSA as the algorithm or by using one of the
rsa_pkcs1_* identifiers) are ignored in TLSv1.3 and will not be
negotiated.
ClientSignatureAlgorithms
This sets the supported signature algorithms associated with client
authentication for TLSv1.2 and TLSv1.3. For servers the value is
used in the signature_algorithms field of a CertificateRequest
message. For clients it is used to determine which signature
algorithm to use with the client certificate. If a server does not
request a certificate this option has no effect.
The syntax of value is identical to SignatureAlgorithms. If not set
then the value set for SignatureAlgorithms will be used instead.
Groups
This sets the supported groups. For clients, the groups are sent
using the supported groups extension. For servers, it is used to
determine which group to use. This setting affects groups used for
signatures (in TLSv1.2 and earlier) and key exchange. The first
group listed will also be used for the key_share sent by a client
in a TLSv1.3 ClientHello.
The value argument is a colon separated list of groups. The group
can be either the NIST name (e.g. P-256), some other commonly used
name where applicable (e.g. X25519, ffdhe2048) or an OpenSSL OID
name (e.g. prime256v1). Group names are case sensitive. The list
should be in order of preference with the most preferred group
first.
Currently supported groups for TLSv1.3 are P-256, P-384, P-521,
X25519, X448, ffdhe2048, ffdhe3072, ffdhe4096, ffdhe6144,
ffdhe8192.
Curves
This is a synonym for the "Groups" command.
MinProtocol
This sets the minimum supported SSL, TLS or DTLS version.
Currently supported protocol values are SSLv3, TLSv1, TLSv1.1,
TLSv1.2, TLSv1.3, DTLSv1 and DTLSv1.2. The SSL and TLS bounds
apply only to TLS-based contexts, while the DTLS bounds apply only
to DTLS-based contexts. The command can be repeated with one
instance setting a TLS bound, and the other setting a DTLS bound.
The value None applies to both types of contexts and disables the
limits.
MaxProtocol
This sets the maximum supported SSL, TLS or DTLS version.
Currently supported protocol values are SSLv3, TLSv1, TLSv1.1,
TLSv1.2, TLSv1.3, DTLSv1 and DTLSv1.2. The SSL and TLS bounds
apply only to TLS-based contexts, while the DTLS bounds apply only
to DTLS-based contexts. The command can be repeated with one
instance setting a TLS bound, and the other setting a DTLS bound.
The value None applies to both types of contexts and disables the
limits.
Protocol
This can be used to enable or disable certain versions of the SSL,
TLS or DTLS protocol.
The value argument is a comma separated list of supported protocols
to enable or disable. If a protocol is preceded by - that version
is disabled.
All protocol versions are enabled by default. You need to disable
at least one protocol version for this setting have any effect.
Only enabling some protocol versions does not disable the other
protocol versions.
Currently supported protocol values are SSLv3, TLSv1, TLSv1.1,
TLSv1.2, TLSv1.3, DTLSv1 and DTLSv1.2. The special value ALL
refers to all supported versions.
This can't enable protocols that are disabled using MinProtocol or
MaxProtocol, but can disable protocols that are still allowed by
them.
The Protocol command is fragile and deprecated; do not use it. Use
MinProtocol and MaxProtocol instead. If you do use Protocol, make
sure that the resulting range of enabled protocols has no "holes",
e.g. if TLS 1.0 and TLS 1.2 are both enabled, make sure to also
leave TLS 1.1 enabled.
Options
The value argument is a comma separated list of various flags to
set. If a flag string is preceded - it is disabled. See the
SSL_CTX_set_options(3) function for more details of individual
options.
Each option is listed below. Where an operation is enabled by
default the -flag syntax is needed to disable it.
SessionTicket: session ticket support, enabled by default. Inverse
of SSL_OP_NO_TICKET: that is -SessionTicket is the same as setting
SSL_OP_NO_TICKET.
Compression: SSL/TLS compression support, disabled by default.
Inverse of SSL_OP_NO_COMPRESSION.
EmptyFragments: use empty fragments as a countermeasure against a
SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 protocol vulnerability affecting CBC ciphers. It is
set by default. Inverse of SSL_OP_DONT_INSERT_EMPTY_FRAGMENTS.
Bugs: enable various bug workarounds. Same as SSL_OP_ALL.
DHSingle: enable single use DH keys, set by default. Inverse of
SSL_OP_DH_SINGLE. Only used by servers.
ECDHSingle: enable single use ECDH keys, set by default. Inverse of
SSL_OP_ECDH_SINGLE. Only used by servers.
ServerPreference: use server and not client preference order when
determining which cipher suite, signature algorithm or elliptic
curve to use for an incoming connection. Equivalent to
SSL_OP_CIPHER_SERVER_PREFERENCE. Only used by servers.
PrioritizeChaCha: prioritizes ChaCha ciphers when the client has a
ChaCha20 cipher at the top of its preference list. This usually
indicates a mobile client is in use. Equivalent to
SSL_OP_PRIORITIZE_CHACHA. Only used by servers.
NoResumptionOnRenegotiation: set
SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION flag. Only used by
servers.
NoRenegotiation: disables all attempts at renegotiation in TLSv1.2
and earlier, same as setting SSL_OP_NO_RENEGOTIATION.
UnsafeLegacyRenegotiation: permits the use of unsafe legacy
renegotiation. Equivalent to
SSL_OP_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION.
UnsafeLegacyServerConnect: permits the use of unsafe legacy
renegotiation for OpenSSL clients only. Equivalent to
SSL_OP_LEGACY_SERVER_CONNECT.
EncryptThenMac: use encrypt-then-mac extension, enabled by default.
Inverse of SSL_OP_NO_ENCRYPT_THEN_MAC: that is, -EncryptThenMac is
the same as setting SSL_OP_NO_ENCRYPT_THEN_MAC.
AllowNoDHEKEX: In TLSv1.3 allow a non-(ec)dhe based key exchange
mode on resumption. This means that there will be no forward
secrecy for the resumed session. Equivalent to
SSL_OP_ALLOW_NO_DHE_KEX.
MiddleboxCompat: If set then dummy Change Cipher Spec (CCS)
messages are sent in TLSv1.3. This has the effect of making TLSv1.3
look more like TLSv1.2 so that middleboxes that do not understand
TLSv1.3 will not drop the connection. This option is set by
default. A future version of OpenSSL may not set this by default.
Equivalent to SSL_OP_ENABLE_MIDDLEBOX_COMPAT.
AntiReplay: If set then OpenSSL will automatically detect if a
session ticket has been used more than once, TLSv1.3 has been
negotiated, and early data is enabled on the server. A full
handshake is forced if a session ticket is used a second or
subsequent time. This option is set by default and is only used by
servers. Anti-replay measures are required to comply with the
TLSv1.3 specification. Some applications may be able to mitigate
the replay risks in other ways and in such cases the built-in
OpenSSL functionality is not required. Disabling anti-replay is
equivalent to setting SSL_OP_NO_ANTI_REPLAY.
ExtendedMasterSecret: use extended master secret extension, enabled
by default. Inverse of SSL_OP_NO_EXTENDED_MASTER_SECRET: that is,
-ExtendedMasterSecret is the same as setting
SSL_OP_NO_EXTENDED_MASTER_SECRET.
CANames: use CA names extension, enabled by default. Inverse of
SSL_OP_DISABLE_TLSEXT_CA_NAMES: that is, -CANames is the same as
setting SSL_OP_DISABLE_TLSEXT_CA_NAMES.
KTLS: Enables kernel TLS if support has been compiled in, and it is
supported by the negotiated ciphersuites and extensions. Equivalent
to SSL_OP_ENABLE_KTLS.
VerifyMode
The value argument is a comma separated list of flags to set.
Peer enables peer verification: for clients only.
Request requests but does not require a certificate from the
client. Servers only.
Require requests and requires a certificate from the client: an
error occurs if the client does not present a certificate. Servers
only.
Once requests a certificate from a client only on the initial
connection: not when renegotiating. Servers only.
RequestPostHandshake configures the connection to support requests
but does not require a certificate from the client post-handshake.
A certificate will not be requested during the initial handshake.
The server application must provide a mechanism to request a
certificate post-handshake. Servers only. TLSv1.3 only.
RequiresPostHandshake configures the connection to support requests
and requires a certificate from the client post-handshake: an error
occurs if the client does not present a certificate. A certificate
will not be requested during the initial handshake. The server
application must provide a mechanism to request a certificate post-
handshake. Servers only. TLSv1.3 only.
ClientCAFile, ClientCAPath
A file or directory of certificates in PEM format whose names are
used as the set of acceptable names for client CAs. Servers only.
This option is only supported if certificate operations are
permitted.
SUPPORTED COMMAND TYPES
The function SSL_CONF_cmd_value_type() currently returns one of the
following types:
SSL_CONF_TYPE_UNKNOWN
The option string is unrecognised, this return value can be use to
flag syntax errors.
SSL_CONF_TYPE_STRING
The value is a string without any specific structure.
SSL_CONF_TYPE_FILE
The value is a filename.
SSL_CONF_TYPE_DIR
The value is a directory name.
SSL_CONF_TYPE_NONE
The value string is not used e.g. a command line option which
doesn't take an argument.
NOTES
The order of operations is significant. This can be used to set either
defaults or values which cannot be overridden. For example if an
application calls:
SSL_CONF_cmd(ctx, "Protocol", "-SSLv3");
SSL_CONF_cmd(ctx, userparam, uservalue);
it will disable SSLv3 support by default but the user can override it.
If however the call sequence is:
SSL_CONF_cmd(ctx, userparam, uservalue);
SSL_CONF_cmd(ctx, "Protocol", "-SSLv3");
SSLv3 is always disabled and attempt to override this by the user are
ignored.
By checking the return code of SSL_CONF_cmd() it is possible to query
if a given option is recognised, this is useful if SSL_CONF_cmd()
values are mixed with additional application specific operations.
For example an application might call SSL_CONF_cmd() and if it returns
-2 (unrecognised command) continue with processing of application
specific commands.
Applications can also use SSL_CONF_cmd() to process command lines
though the utility function SSL_CONF_cmd_argv() is normally used
instead. One way to do this is to set the prefix to an appropriate
value using SSL_CONF_CTX_set1_prefix(), pass the current argument to
option and the following argument to value (which may be NULL).
In this case if the return value is positive then it is used to skip
that number of arguments as they have been processed by SSL_CONF_cmd().
If -2 is returned then option is not recognised and application
specific arguments can be checked instead. If -3 is returned a required
argument is missing and an error is indicated. If 0 is returned some
other error occurred and this can be reported back to the user.
The function SSL_CONF_cmd_value_type() can be used by applications to
check for the existence of a command or to perform additional syntax
checking or translation of the command value. For example if the return
value is SSL_CONF_TYPE_FILE an application could translate a relative
pathname to an absolute pathname.
RETURN VALUES
SSL_CONF_cmd() returns 1 if the value of option is recognised and value
is NOT used and 2 if both option and value are used. In other words it
returns the number of arguments processed. This is useful when
processing command lines.
A return value of -2 means option is not recognised.
A return value of -3 means option is recognised and the command
requires a value but value is NULL.
A return code of 0 indicates that both option and value are valid but
an error occurred attempting to perform the operation: for example due
to an error in the syntax of value in this case the error queue may
provide additional information.
EXAMPLES
Set supported signature algorithms:
SSL_CONF_cmd(ctx, "SignatureAlgorithms", "ECDSA+SHA256:RSA+SHA256:DSA+SHA256");
There are various ways to select the supported protocols.
This set the minimum protocol version to TLSv1, and so disables SSLv3.
This is the recommended way to disable protocols.
SSL_CONF_cmd(ctx, "MinProtocol", "TLSv1");
The following also disables SSLv3:
SSL_CONF_cmd(ctx, "Protocol", "-SSLv3");
The following will first enable all protocols, and then disable SSLv3.
If no protocol versions were disabled before this has the same effect
as "-SSLv3", but if some versions were disables this will re-enable
them before disabling SSLv3.
SSL_CONF_cmd(ctx, "Protocol", "ALL,-SSLv3");
Only enable TLSv1.2:
SSL_CONF_cmd(ctx, "MinProtocol", "TLSv1.2");
SSL_CONF_cmd(ctx, "MaxProtocol", "TLSv1.2");
This also only enables TLSv1.2:
SSL_CONF_cmd(ctx, "Protocol", "-ALL,TLSv1.2");
Disable TLS session tickets:
SSL_CONF_cmd(ctx, "Options", "-SessionTicket");
Enable compression:
SSL_CONF_cmd(ctx, "Options", "Compression");
Set supported curves to P-256, P-384:
SSL_CONF_cmd(ctx, "Curves", "P-256:P-384");

HISTORY
The SSL_CONF_cmd() function was added in OpenSSL 1.0.2.
The SSL_OP_NO_SSL2 option doesn't have effect since 1.1.0, but the
macro is retained for backwards compatibility.
The SSL_CONF_TYPE_NONE was added in OpenSSL 1.1.0. In earlier versions
of OpenSSL passing a command which didn't take an argument would return
SSL_CONF_TYPE_UNKNOWN.
MinProtocol and MaxProtocol where added in OpenSSL 1.1.0.
AllowNoDHEKEX and PrioritizeChaCha were added in OpenSSL 1.1.1.
The UnsafeLegacyServerConnect option is no longer set by default from
OpenSSL 3.0.
