The verification of certificates can be controlled by a set of logically
|
|
or'ed \fBmode\fR flags:
|
|
.IP "\s-1SSL_VERIFY_NONE\s0" 4
|
|
.IX Item "SSL_VERIFY_NONE"
|
|
\&\fBServer mode:\fR the server will not send a client certificate request to the
|
|
client, so the client will not send a certificate.
|
|
.Sp
|
|
\&\fBClient mode:\fR if not using an anonymous cipher (by default disabled), the
|
|
server will send a certificate which will be checked. The result of the
|
|
certificate verification process can be checked after the \s-1TLS/SSL\s0 handshake
|
|
using the \fISSL_get_verify_result\fR\|(3) function.
|
|
The handshake will be continued regardless of the verification result.
|
|
.IP "\s-1SSL_VERIFY_PEER\s0" 4
|
|
.IX Item "SSL_VERIFY_PEER"
|
|
\&\fBServer mode:\fR the server sends a client certificate request to the client.
|
|
The certificate returned (if any) is checked. If the verification process
|
|
fails, the \s-1TLS/SSL\s0 handshake is
|
|
immediately terminated with an alert message containing the reason for
|
|
the verification failure.
|
|
The behaviour can be controlled by the additional
|
|
\&\s-1SSL_VERIFY_FAIL_IF_NO_PEER_CERT\s0 and \s-1SSL_VERIFY_CLIENT_ONCE\s0 flags.
|
|
.Sp
|
|
\&\fBClient mode:\fR the server certificate is verified. If the verification process
|
|
fails, the \s-1TLS/SSL\s0 handshake is
|
|
immediately terminated with an alert message containing the reason for
|
|
the verification failure. If no server certificate is sent, because an
|
|
anonymous cipher is used, \s-1SSL_VERIFY_PEER\s0 is ignored.
|
|
.IP "\s-1SSL_VERIFY_FAIL_IF_NO_PEER_CERT\s0" 4
|
|
.IX Item "SSL_VERIFY_FAIL_IF_NO_PEER_CERT"
|
|
\&\fBServer mode:\fR if the client did not return a certificate, the \s-1TLS/SSL\s0
|
|
handshake is immediately terminated with a \*(L"handshake failure\*(R" alert.
|
|
This flag must be used together with \s-1SSL_VERIFY_PEER\s0.
|
|
.Sp
|
|
\&\fBClient mode:\fR ignored
|
|
.IP "\s-1SSL_VERIFY_CLIENT_ONCE\s0" 4
|
|
.IX Item "SSL_VERIFY_CLIENT_ONCE"
|
|
\&\fBServer mode:\fR only request a client certificate on the initial \s-1TLS/SSL\s0
|
|
handshake. Do not ask for a client certificate again in case of a
|
|
renegotiation. This flag must be used together with \s-1SSL_VERIFY_PEER\s0.
|
|
.Sp
|
|
\&\fBClient mode:\fR ignored
|
|
.PP
|
|
Exactly one of the \fBmode\fR flags \s-1SSL_VERIFY_NONE\s0 and \s-1SSL_VERIFY_PEER\s0 must be
|
|
set at any time.
|
|
.PP
|
|
The actual verification procedure is performed either using the built-in
|
|
verification procedure or using another application provided verification
|
|
function set with
|
|
\&\fISSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback\fR\|(3).
|
|
The following descriptions apply in the case of the built-in procedure. An
|
|
application provided procedure also has access to the verify depth information
|
|
and the \fIverify_callback()\fR function, but the way this information is used
|
|
may be different.
|
|
.PP
|
|
\&\fISSL_CTX_set_verify_depth()\fR and \fISSL_set_verify_depth()\fR set the limit up
|
|
to which depth certificates in a chain are used during the verification
|
|
procedure. If the certificate chain is longer than allowed, the certificates
|
|
above the limit are ignored. Error messages are generated as if these
|
|
certificates would not be present, most likely a
|
|
X509_V_ERR_UNABLE_TO_GET_ISSUER_CERT_LOCALLY will be issued.
|
|
The depth count is \*(L"level 0:peer certificate\*(R", \*(L"level 1: \s-1CA\s0 certificate\*(R",
|
|
\&\*(L"level 2: higher level \s-1CA\s0 certificate\*(R", and so on. Setting the maximum
|
|
depth to 2 allows the levels 0, 1, and 2. The default depth limit is 9,
|
|
allowing for the peer certificate and additional 9 \s-1CA\s0 certificates.
|
|
.PP
|
|
The \fBverify_callback\fR function is used to control the behaviour when the
|
|
\&\s-1SSL_VERIFY_PEER\s0 flag is set. It must be supplied by the application and
|
|
receives two arguments: \fBpreverify_ok\fR indicates, whether the verification of
|
|
the certificate in question was passed (preverify_ok=1) or not
|
|
(preverify_ok=0). \fBx509_ctx\fR is a pointer to the complete context used
|
|
for the certificate chain verification.
|
|
.PP
|
|
The certificate chain is checked starting with the deepest nesting level
|
|
(the root \s-1CA\s0 certificate) and worked upward to the peer's certificate.
|
|
At each level signatures and issuer attributes are checked. Whenever
|
|
a verification error is found, the error number is stored in \fBx509_ctx\fR
|
|
and \fBverify_callback\fR is called with \fBpreverify_ok\fR=0. By applying
|
|
X509_CTX_store_* functions \fBverify_callback\fR can locate the certificate
|
|
in question and perform additional steps (see \s-1EXAMPLES\s0). If no error is
|
|
found for a certificate, \fBverify_callback\fR is called with \fBpreverify_ok\fR=1
|
|
before advancing to the next level.
|
|
.PP
|
|
The return value of \fBverify_callback\fR controls the strategy of the further
|
|
verification process. If \fBverify_callback\fR returns 0, the verification
|
|
process is immediately stopped with \*(L"verification failed\*(R" state. If
|
|
\&\s-1SSL_VERIFY_PEER\s0 is set, a verification failure alert is sent to the peer and
|
|
the \s-1TLS/SSL\s0 handshake is terminated. If \fBverify_callback\fR returns 1,
|
|
the verification process is continued. If \fBverify_callback\fR always returns
|
|
1, the \s-1TLS/SSL\s0 handshake will not be terminated with respect to verification
|
|
failures and the connection will be established. The calling process can
|
|
however retrieve the error code of the last verification error using
|
|
\&\fISSL_get_verify_result\fR\|(3) or by maintaining its
|
|
own error storage managed by \fBverify_callback\fR.
|
|
.PP
|
|
If no \fBverify_callback\fR is specified, the default callback will be used.
|
|
Its return value is identical to \fBpreverify_ok\fR, so that any verification
|
|
failure will lead to a termination of the \s-1TLS/SSL\s0 handshake with an
|
|
alert message, if \s-1SSL_VERIFY_PEER\s0 is set.
|
|
.SH "BUGS"
|
|
.IX Header "BUGS"
|
|
In client mode, it is not checked whether the \s-1SSL_VERIFY_PEER\s0 flag
|
|
is set, but whether \s-1SSL_VERIFY_NONE\s0 is not set. This can lead to
|
|
unexpected behaviour, if the \s-1SSL_VERIFY_PEER\s0 and \s-1SSL_VERIFY_NONE\s0 are not
|
|
used as required (exactly one must be set at any time).
|
|
.PP
|
|
The certificate verification depth set with SSL[_CTX]\fI_verify_depth()\fR
|
|
stops the verification at a certain depth. The error message produced
|
|
will be that of an incomplete certificate chain and not
|
|
X509_V_ERR_CERT_CHAIN_TOO_LONG as may be expected.
|

The following code sequence realizes an example \fBverify_callback\fR function
|
|
that will always continue the \s-1TLS/SSL\s0 handshake regardless of verification
|
|
failure, if wished. The callback realizes a verification depth limit with
|
|
more informational output.

All verification errors are printed, informations about the certificate chain

are printed on request.

The example is realized for a server that does allow but not require client
|
|
certificates.
