New submission from bli2020 <bryso...@gmail.com>:
Issue31997 I know this issue was previously closed https://bugs.python.org/issue31997 because "it works as expected and should be handled in the application layer". But, could the team add a flag in SSLContext which will handle the trailing dot hostname appropriately (for the hostname check, since openssl does not support trailing dots in the hostname). Previously in 2.7 and 3.6/before I was able to override ssl.match_hostname to add some extra checks, but now I am unable to do so because openssl is used instead. This extra flag/implementation would help solve this problem. ---------- assignee: christian.heimes components: SSL messages: 366620 nosy: bli2020, christian.heimes priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Enhancement request for SSLContext - flag to handle trailing dot in hostname type: enhancement versions: Python 3.7, Python 3.8, Python 3.9 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue40306> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
