SSL_CTX_set_cipher_list
() sets the list of available cipher suites for ctx using the control string. The list of cipher suites is inherited by all ssl objects created from ctx.
SSL_set_cipher_list
() sets the list of cipher suites only for ssl.
The control string consists of one or more control words separated by colon characters (‘:
’). Space (‘
’), semicolon (‘;
’), and comma (‘,
’) characters can also be used as separators. Each control words selects a set of cipher suites and can take one of the following optional prefix characters:
- No prefix:
- Those of the selected cipher suites that have not been made available yet are added to the end of the list of available cipher suites, preserving their order.
- Prefixed minus sign (‘
-
’): - Those of the selected cipher suites that have been made available earlier are moved back from the list of available cipher suites to the beginning of the list of unavailable cipher suites, also preserving their order.
- Prefixed plus sign (‘
+
’): - Those of the selected cipher suites have been made available earlier are moved to end of the list of available cipher suites, reducing their priority, but preserving the order among themselves.
- Prefixed exclamation mark (‘
!
’): - The selected cipher suites are permanently deleted, no matter whether they had earlier been made available or not, and can no longer be added or re-added by later words.
The following special words can only be used without a prefix:
DEFAULT
- An alias for
ALL
:!aNULL
:!eNULL
. It can only be used as the first word. @STRENGTH
- Sort the list by decreasing encryption strength, preserving the order of cipher suites that have the same strength. It is usally given as the last word.
The following words can be used to select groups of cipher suites, with or without a prefix character. If two or more of these words are joined with plus signs (‘+
’) to form a longer word, only the intersection of the specified sets is selected.

The full words returned by the openssl(1) ciphers
command can be used to select individual cipher suites.
Unknown words are silently ignored, selecting no cipher suites. Failure is only flagged if the control string contains invalid bytes or if no matching cipher suites are available at all.
On the client side, including a cipher suite into the list of available cipher suites is sufficient for using it. On the server side, all cipher suites have additional requirements. ADH ciphers don't need a certificate, but DH-parameters must have been set. All other cipher suites need a corresponding certificate and key.
A RSA cipher can only be chosen when an RSA certificate is available. RSA ciphers using DHE need a certificate and key and additional DH-parameters (see SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh_callback(3)).
A DSA cipher can only be chosen when a DSA certificate is available. DSA ciphers always use DH key exchange and therefore need DH-parameters (see SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh_callback(3)).
When these conditions are not met for any cipher suite in the list (for example, a client only supports export RSA ciphers with an asymmetric key length of 512 bits and the server is not configured to use temporary RSA keys), the “no shared cipher” (SSL_R_NO_SHARED_CIPHER
) error is generated and the handshake will fail.
