ssl - What does the curl --insecure option mean? -


1: according post on so:

'-k/--insecure "only make" curl skip certificate validation, not turn off ssl together.'

if using ssl curl, still need certificate file figure out how decrypt message. ssl without certificate file never work. --insecure means blindly trust certificate file valid.

is correct?

2: chrome 'magically' recognizes certificates, curl not.

sites work in chrome don't work thru curl unless use --cacert. guessing that's because certificates function of application (browser) , not os.

is correct?
