------------------------------------------

             Summary: Libprocess does not support server only SSL certificate 
verification.
                 Key: MESOS-9791
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-9791
             Project: Mesos
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: libprocess
            Reporter: Alexander Rukletsov


Currently SSL certificate verification in Libprocess can be configured in the 
[following 
ways|https://github.com/apache/mesos/blob/eecb82c77117998af0c67a53c64e9b1e975acfa4/3rdparty/libprocess/src/openssl.cpp#L88-L97]:
(1) send certificate if in server mode, verify peer certificates *if present*;
(2) require valid peer certificates in *both* client and server modes.

It is currently impossible to configure a Libprocess instance to simultaneously:
(3) require valid peer certificate in client mode and send certificate in 
server mode.

Because Libprocess is often used by programs that act both as servers and 
clients, implementing (3) is necessary to enable the so-called 
webserver-browser model.
