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

Like what? *.<countrycode>?

Feel free to contribute a patch with a stricter version of the check or a test 
case that you think should be failing.

> I work at a company called info.nl in the Netherlands, so our domain is 
> info.nl. We have a wildcard certificate in use for several services, 
> *.info.nl.
> The AbstractVerifier has a method acceptableCountryWildcard which checks that 
> you don't use eg *.co.uk as the wildcard in the certificate. The second to 
> last domain part is checked against a fixed list, which includes info so our 
> wildcard is not accepted.
> Apparantly there are some countries where info.<countrycode> is seen as a top 
> level domain but that is not the case for the netherlands. So the check on 
> this is not strict enough and should also take into account the top level 
> domain.
