SSL_GET_VERIFY_RESULT(3) Library Functions Manual SSL_GET_VERIFY_RESULT(3) NAME SSL_get_verify_result - get result of peer certificate verification SYNOPSIS #include long SSL_get_verify_result(const SSL *ssl); DESCRIPTION SSL_get_verify_result() returns the result of the verification of the X509 certificate presented by the peer, if any. SSL_get_verify_result() can only return one error code while the verification of a certificate can fail because of many reasons at the same time. Only the last verification error that occurred during the processing is available from SSL_get_verify_result(). The verification result is part of the established session and is restored when a session is reused. RETURN VALUES The following return values can currently occur: X509_V_OK The verification succeeded or no peer certificate was presented. Any other value Documented in openssl(1). SEE ALSO openssl(1), ssl(3), SSL_CTX_set_verify(3), SSL_get0_peername(3), SSL_get_peer_certificate(3), SSL_set_verify_result(3) HISTORY SSL_get_verify_result() first appeared in SSLeay 0.6.1 and has been available since OpenBSD 2.4. BUGS If no peer certificate was presented, the returned result code is X509_V_OK. This is because no verification error occurred; however, it does not indicate success. SSL_get_verify_result() is only useful in connection with SSL_get_peer_certificate(3). Linux 6.8.7-arch1-1 June 26, 2021 Linux 6.8.7-arch1-1
