[stunnel-users] OCSP Responders in AIA extension

[Ender Erel]

Thanks for the feedback, I really appreciate it.

I just have one more question. Let's say the server presents a certificate chain, and the order of certificates in the pem file I saved is different than how the server presented it. Would the connection still be successful? Or is the order of the certificates in the pem file important?

Regards,
Ender

Hi Ender,

The AIA extension is indeed currently ignored by stunnel.
This feature is on my TODO list.  I hope to find time to implement it.
I cannot just apply the patch, as it doesn't have a license.  I also don't accept copyleft (e.g. GPL) patches.

The configuration you described seems to be correct.

Hi All,

Does stunnel check the OCSP responders found in a certificate's AIA field? I am asking this because in the following e-mail from back 2008, the sender mentions a patch that implements this functionality. The patch is included with the mail but I don't think it is included in the later versions of stunnel. Does this mean OCSP responders inside a receied certificate are ignored?

I also want to ask another thing. When using verify = 3 in client mode, which file is used to check the received certificate? Is it the CAfile?
If so, would it work like this:

-          I manually opened a connection to a server outside stunnel, downloaded the server's certificate, and closed the connection.

-          I saved this certificate to a file, and wrote the path of this file in the stunnel configuration file (CAfile = /mycerts/tmpcert.pem,verify=3).

-          I started stunnel and initiated a connection to the server.
Would the connection be successful? Would it be the right way to use verify=3?

Kind Regards,
Ender Erel
