Name	Value	Description
CURLSSLOPT_ALLOW_BEAST	1	tells libcurl to allow the BEAST SSL vulnerability in the name of improving interoperability with older servers. Some SSL libraries have introduced work-arounds for this flaw but those work-arounds sometimes make the SSL communication fail. To regain functionality with those broken servers, a user can this way allow the vulnerability back.
CURLSSLOPT_NO_REVOKE	2	tells libcurl to disable certificate revocation checks for those SSL backends where such behavior is present.
CURLSSLOPT_NO_PARTIALCHAIN	4	tells libcurl to NOT accept a partial certificate chain if possible. The OpenSSL backend has this ability.
CURLSSLOPT_REVOKE_BEST_EFFORT	8	tells libcurl to ignore certificate revocation offline checks and ignore missing revocation list for those SSL backends where such behavior is present.
CURLSSLOPT_NATIVE_CA	16	tells libcurl to use standard certificate store of operating system. Currently implemented under MS-Windows.
