Dear OpenSSL developers,
on August 14 I posted this matter to the developer list. There has
been no response. Please include this issue in the bug tracker.
Various grid projects have run into the default maximum chain length
of 9 being too low. These bug reports show examples:
http://bugzilla.globus.org/globus/show_bug.cgi?id=4994
https://savannah.cern.ch/bugs/index.php?37563
The functions SSL_CTX_set_verify_depth() and SSL_set_verify_depth()
allow the maximum length to be increased, but this means that every
application or library around OpenSSL needs to make such calls.
Why not increase the default, say, to 100 instead, as Globus did?
Thanks,
Maarten (CERN/LCG/EGEE)
