SSL_GET_PEER_CERT_CHAIN(3ossl) OpenSSL SSL_GET_PEER_CERT_CHAIN(3ossl)
NAME
SSL_get_peer_cert_chain, SSL_get0_verified_chain - get the X509
certificate chain of the peer
SYNOPSIS
#include <openssl/ssl.h>
STACK_OF(X509) *SSL_get_peer_cert_chain(const SSL *ssl);
STACK_OF(X509) *SSL_get0_verified_chain(const SSL *ssl);
DESCRIPTION
SSL_get_peer_cert_chain() returns a pointer to STACK_OF(X509)
certificates forming the certificate chain sent by the peer. If called
on the client side, the stack also contains the peer's certificate; if
called on the server side, the peer's certificate must be obtained
separately using SSL_get_peer_certificate(3). If the peer did not
present a certificate, NULL is returned.
NB: SSL_get_peer_cert_chain() returns the peer chain as sent by the
peer: it only consists of certificates the peer has sent (in the order
the peer has sent them) it is not a verified chain.
SSL_get0_verified_chain() returns the verified certificate chain of the
peer including the peer's end entity certificate. It must be called
after a session has been successfully established. If peer verification
was not successful (as indicated by SSL_get_verify_result() not
returning X509_V_OK) the chain may be incomplete or invalid.
NOTES
If the session is resumed peers do not send certificates so a NULL
pointer is returned by these functions. Applications can call
SSL_session_reused() to determine whether a session is resumed.
The reference count of each certificate in the returned STACK_OF(X509)
object is not incremented and the returned stack may be invalidated by
renegotiation. If applications wish to use any certificates in the
returned chain indefinitely they must increase the reference counts
using X509_up_ref() or obtain a copy of the whole chain with
X509_chain_up_ref().
RETURN VALUES
The following return values can occur:
NULL
No certificate was presented by the peer or no connection was
established or the certificate chain is no longer available when a
session is reused.
Pointer to a STACK_OF(X509)
The return value points to the certificate chain presented by the
peer.
