SSL_CTX_set_cert_store(3)SSL_CTX_set_cert_store(3)NAMESSL_CTX_set_cert_store - Manipulate X509 certificate verification stor‐
age.
SYNOPSIS
#include <openssl/ssl.h>
void SSL_CTX_set_cert_store(
SSL_CTX *ctx,
X509_STORE *store ); X509_STORE *SSL_CTX_get_cert_store(
SSL_CTX *ctx );
DESCRIPTION
The SSL_CTX_set_cert_store() function sets/replaces the certificate
verification storage of ctx to/with store. If another X509_STORE
object is currently set in ctx, it will be X509_STORE_free()ed. The
SSL_CTX_get_cert_store() function returns a pointer to the current cer‐
tificate verification storage.
NOTES
In order to verify the certificates presented by the peer, trusted CA
certificates must be accessed. These CA certificates are made available
via lookup methods, handled inside the X509_STORE.
From the X509_STORE, the X509_STORE_CTX used when verifying certifi‐
cates is created. Typically the trusted certificate store is han‐
dled indirectly via using the SSL_CTX_load_verify_locations()function.
Using the SSL_CTX_set_cert_store() and the SSL_CTX_get_cert_store()
functions it is possible to manipulate the X509_STORE object beyond the
SSL_CTX_load_verify_locations() function.
Not all members of the X509_STORE are used when the verification takes
place, but no detailed documentation on how to use the X509_STORE
object is currently available.
RETURN VALUES
The SSL_CTX_set_cert_store() function does not return diagnostic out‐
put.
The SSL_CTX_get_cert_store() function returns the current setting.
