.SH DESCRIPTION
Pass a long with a bitmask to tell libcurl about specific SSL behaviors.
-\fICURLSSLOPT_ALLOW_BEAST\fP tells libcurl to not attempt to use any
-workarounds for a security flaw in the SSL3 and TLS1.0 protocols. If this
-option isn't used or this bit is set to 0, the SSL layer libcurl uses may use a
-work-around for this flaw although it might cause interoperability problems
-with some (older) SSL implementations. WARNING: avoiding this work-around
-lessens the security, and by setting this option to 1 you ask for exactly that.
-This option is only supported for DarwinSSL, NSS and OpenSSL.
-
-Added in 7.44.0:
-
-\fICURLSSLOPT_NO_REVOKE\fP tells libcurl to disable certificate revocation
-checks for those SSL backends where such behavior is present. \fBCurrently this
-option is only supported for WinSSL (the native Windows SSL library), with an
-exception in the case of Windows' Untrusted Publishers blacklist which it seems
-can't be bypassed.\fP This option may have broader support to accommodate other
-SSL backends in the future.

+\fICURLSSLOPT_ALLOW_BEAST\fP is the only supported bit and by setting this the
+user will tell libcurl to not attempt to use any workarounds for a security
+flaw in the SSL3 and TLS1.0 protocols. If this option isn't used or this bit
+is set to 0, the SSL layer libcurl uses may use a work-around for this flaw
