My view is that code should follow the RFC (in this case RFC3820) where possible, and hence this should be put in the queue as higher priority - especially since it could have potential security implications. Regards,Nick Prowse

The same behaviour is present in all releases including master. I don't see any code in OpenSSL that imposes any constraints on the subject names of proxy certificates. If strict adherence to the rules in RFC3820 is important for security (I don't where proxy certs are used and what real semantics applications expect), then this issue remains to be addressed. Perhaps reopen this one. -- Viktor. -- Ticket here: http://rt.openssl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=4430 Please log in as guest with password guest if prompted -- openssl-dev mailing list To unsubscribe: https://mta.openssl.org/mailman/listinfo/openssl-dev
