Hello, I noticed that nginx does not check x509v3 certificates ( in event/ngx_event_openssl.c::ngx_ssl_get_client_verify as an example ) to see that the optional extended key usage settings are correct. I have a patch for this that I would like to contribute, but I'm unable to find contribution guidelines on the nginx web-site.
The effect of this issue is that someone could offer a client certificate that has extended key usage set to say, serverAuth. This would be a violation of RFC 5280 - Section 4.2.1.12. I fix this by checking the bitfield manually to see that the settings are correct. Cheers, Ethan
