[gnutls-devel] A certificate is verified by Gnutls but rejected by OpenSSL/PolarSSL

[陈雨亭]

B.T.W., I use pyopenssl to decode, modify, and sign the certificates. I guess they should be chained on the basis of their names.

Some libs chain on the keyids, not the names. Depends on the generation of developer. If paid / indoctrinated in the pem phase, will be name based (since one used the directory to do what we would now call openid connect discovery of tryst points (based on naming domains)). If NSA paid /influenced, it uses keyids (which are just NSA kmids, revisited)

For disclosure, I was NSA paid / influenced, but thoroughly bought into the darpa design , now realized (20 years late) as azure active directory plus openud connect.

Another very different example: when I verify file5.pem (the attached file) against fa_rootCA_key_cert.pem, gnutls cannot find the issuer of the cert in file5.pem, but openssl/polarssl can find the issuer and accept it. It is a little tricky to find the issuer by comparing the "issuer" field of one certificate with the "subject" field of the ca certificate.

  In the file.pem you have 2 certificates (a chain), and the fa_rootCA is
  another one. If you try openssl on each two of them (i.e., split the
  file.pem) you'll get an OK. Are you sure that openssl verify can accept
  a chain?
