[gnutls-devel] GnuTLS | gnutls_x509_crt_check_hostname does not handle trailing dots (#1548)

[Read-only notification of GnuTLS library development activities]

Daniel Stenberg commented: https://gitlab.com/gnutls/gnutls/-/issues/1548#note_2076883081


It will make GnuTLS stand out among TLS libraries to not be able to verify hostnames in certificates if they have a trailing dot. Hostnames in URLs are known to sometimes have trailing dots and they do make a difference to both HTTP servers and name resolvers.

But since SNI was defined to not have trailing dots, there is always some breakage involved.
