Your callback should have access to the Global data in your program,
which can include both that file name and variables to hold on to the
loaded PEM file once loaded by the first session needing it.

Thanks Jakob,
Callback is a possibility but the limitation is that this callback
does not have access to the filename (which can change for every
client) to load all pem files. Also I do not want to read the file
every time in call back.
I was ablt to prototype my idea by recreating the SSL object from
context and use it for SSL_Connect and SSL_accept.
But unfortunately client is sending a fatal unexpected_message alert
to server immediately after client hello.
here is the ssl dump:

Hi,
Let me start with a disclaimer that i am not very experienced
with openssl.
I have a requirement. In an enterprise all clients and servers
communicate over ssl. the certs in client and server are self
signed.
There is one client application which talks to 100+ different
services.
Currently the peer verification is done using a single file
containing all those self signed certs on client side.
if (!SSL_CTX_load_verify_locations(context,
trusted_certs_filename, NULL))
fprintf(stderr,"SSL_CTX_load_verify_locations failed
(file:%s)", _trusted_ca_certs_filename.chars());
// client always receives a certificate from the server, and
if that
// certificate fails to verify, the handshake will be terminated
SSL_CTX_set_verify(context, SSL_VERIFY_PEER, NULL);
As the pem file in question contains 100+ certs, ssl context
initialization takes a while. My task is to migrate that to
using CA Path.I have a solution but also want to build a fall
back mechanism
I want to fallback on initializing the context with the pem
file in case the cert verification fails with CA Path.
At high level i see following to be done
- on client handle the reason code
SSL_R_CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED from SSL_connect
- on server handle the reason code
SSL_R_TLSV1_ALERT_UNKNOWN_CA from SSL_accept
- change the ssl context to have pem file as verified certs on
client side.
- renegotiate ssl handshake over the same socket
Does anybody of the users know of such implementation or its
feasibility? Please help me to give some ways to solve this issue
Regards,
banro21
Here is another possibility:
1. Add your own verification callback, which should then be called
when OpenSSL tries to
verify that self-signed cert.
2. In your callback, manually try both verification methods before
deciding if the result returned
to the SSL code should be "valid" or "invalid".
3. The "Manual" code in the callback can presumably reuse the
existing OpenSSL functions
to do the verification, the point is that you get a chance to
intercept the result before it
reaches the SSL layer.
This way you won't get into the whole "renegotiate on a failed
connection" issue.
