Hi Rich.. Thanks..
We want to add a check in our openssl library on client side to reject such
server certificate which are generated by the intermediate CA with missing
extensions like basic constraints..
How do we go about it?

I looked at the code. In crypto/x509v3/v3_purp.c I see that check_ca is
there. But it is getting called only for server certificate.


Thanks
Sandeep
