stream_socket_enable_crypto

(PHP 5 >= 5.1.0, PHP 7, PHP 8)

stream_socket_enable_crypto — Turns encryption on/off on an already connected socket

Description

stream_socket_enable_crypto(
    resource $stream,
    bool $enable,
    ?int $crypto_method = null,
    ?resource $session_stream = null
): int|bool

Enable or disable encryption on the stream.

Once the crypto settings are established, cryptography can be turned on and off dynamically by passing true or false in the enable parameter.

Parameters

stream

The stream resource.

enable

Enable/disable cryptography on the stream.

crypto_method

Setup encryption on the stream. Valid methods are

  • STREAM_CRYPTO_METHOD_SSLv2_CLIENT
  • STREAM_CRYPTO_METHOD_SSLv3_CLIENT
  • STREAM_CRYPTO_METHOD_SSLv23_CLIENT
  • STREAM_CRYPTO_METHOD_ANY_CLIENT
  • STREAM_CRYPTO_METHOD_TLS_CLIENT
  • STREAM_CRYPTO_METHOD_TLSv1_0_CLIENT
  • STREAM_CRYPTO_METHOD_TLSv1_1_CLIENT
  • STREAM_CRYPTO_METHOD_TLSv1_2_CLIENT
  • STREAM_CRYPTO_METHOD_TLSv1_3_CLIENT (as of PHP 7.4.0)
  • STREAM_CRYPTO_METHOD_SSLv2_SERVER
  • STREAM_CRYPTO_METHOD_SSLv3_SERVER
  • STREAM_CRYPTO_METHOD_SSLv23_SERVER
  • STREAM_CRYPTO_METHOD_ANY_SERVER
  • STREAM_CRYPTO_METHOD_TLS_SERVER
  • STREAM_CRYPTO_METHOD_TLSv1_0_SERVER
  • STREAM_CRYPTO_METHOD_TLSv1_1_SERVER
  • STREAM_CRYPTO_METHOD_TLSv1_2_SERVER
  • STREAM_CRYPTO_METHOD_TLSv1_3_SERVER (as of PHP 7.4.0)

If omitted, the crypto_method context option on the stream's SSL context will be used instead.

session_stream

Seed the stream with settings from session_stream.

Return Values

Returns true on success, false if negotiation has failed or 0 if there isn't enough data and you should try again (only for non-blocking sockets).

Changelog

Version Description
8.0.0 session_stream is now nullable.

Examples

Example #1 stream_socket_enable_crypto() example

<?php
$fp = stream_socket_client("tcp://myproto.example.com:31337", $errno, $errstr, 30);
if (!$fp) {
die("Unable to connect: $errstr ($errno)");
}

/* Turn on encryption for login phase */
stream_socket_enable_crypto($fp, true, STREAM_CRYPTO_METHOD_SSLv23_CLIENT);
fwrite($fp, "USER god\r\n");
fwrite($fp, "PASS secret\r\n");

/* Turn off encryption for the rest */
stream_socket_enable_crypto($fp, false);

while ($motd = fgets($fp)) {
echo $motd;
}

fclose($fp);
?>

The above example will output something similar to:
