Support for SAN's in SSL-certificates - 15/06/12 08:37 AM
With mIRC 7.25, I connect to a SSL-enabled IRC-server. The IRC-server uses a completely valid and signed SSL-certificate, however the used hostname is present as a Subject Alternative Name (SAN) in the certificate. The main hostname in the certificate is different. This results in an error message about a problem with the certificate. A workaround could be to use the main hostname from the certificate, but this will not always be possible.
I don't know if this is an issue with OpenSSL or with mIRC, but the certificate should be accepted when the used hostname is present as SAN in the certificate.
