Hi,

Issue 40479 is about a security risk when OpenSSL is used in fcl-web
(TFPHTTPClient). Using the current source/trunk, TLS certificates
having a wrong hostname are accepted, while they should be rejected.

An easy patch for this is available, I kindly ask for a review by one
of the developers:

https://gitlab.com/freepascal.org/fpc/source/-/issues/40479

If I can help in any way to facilitate this review, please let me know.

(BTW I also submitted a patch for a GnuTLS problem, which is less
important because it is no security risk, but still a review is highly
appreciated:

Peter.
