BrowserCompatHostnameVerifier Class Reference

The HostnameVerifier that works the same way as Curl and Firefox. More...

Inheritance diagram for BrowserCompatHostnameVerifier:

Description

The hostname must match either the first CN, or any of the subject-alts. A wildcard can occur in the CN, and in any of the subject-alts.

The only difference between BROWSER_COMPATIBLE and STRICT is that a wildcard (such as "*.foo.com") with BROWSER_COMPATIBLE matches all subdomains, including "a.b.foo.com".

verify()

final void verify	(	final String	host,
		final String[]	cns,
		final String[]	subjectAlts
	)		throws SSLException

Most implementations only look at the first CN, and ignore any additional CNs. Most implementations do look at all of the "DNS" Subject-Alts. The CNs or Subject-Alts may contain wildcards according to RFC 2818.

Parameters

cns	CN fields, in order, as extracted from the X.509 certificate.
subjectAlts	Subject-Alt fields of type 2 ("DNS"), as extracted from the X.509 certificate.
host	The hostname to verify.

Exceptions

SSLException

If verification failed.
