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 with options
CURLOPT_TLS13_CIPHERS
and
--tls13-ciphers
.
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.
OpenSSL
(based on OpenSSL docs)
When specifying multiple cipher names, separate them with colon (:
).

Ciphers are internally defined as numeric codes (https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/ssw_ibm_i_73/apis/gsk_attribute_set_buffer.htm), but libcurl maps them to the following case-insensitive names.
