NAME

       SSL_CTX_set_cert_store, SSL_CTX_get_cert_store - manipulate X509 certificate verification storage

SYNOPSIS

	#include <openssl/ssl.h>

	void SSL_CTX_set_cert_store(SSL_CTX *ctx, X509_STORE *store);
	X509_STORE *SSL_CTX_get_cert_store(const SSL_CTX *ctx);

DESCRIPTION

       SSL_CTX_set_cert_store() sets/replaces the certificate verification storage of ctx to/with store. If another X509_STORE object is currently
       set in ctx, it will be X509_STORE_free()ed.

       SSL_CTX_get_cert_store() returns a pointer to the current certificate verification storage.

NOTES

       In order to verify the certificates presented by the peer, trusted CA certificates must be accessed. These CA certificates are made avail-
       able via lookup methods, handled inside the X509_STORE. From the X509_STORE the X509_STORE_CTX used when verifying certificates is created.

       Typically the trusted certificate store is handled indirectly via using SSL_CTX_load_verify_locations(3).  Using the
       SSL_CTX_set_cert_store() and SSL_CTX_get_cert_store() functions it is possible to manipulate the X509_STORE object beyond the
       SSL_CTX_load_verify_locations(3) call.

       Currently no detailed documentation on how to use the X509_STORE object is available. Not all members of the X509_STORE are used when the
       verification takes place. So will e.g. the verify_callback() be overridden with the verify_callback() set via the SSL_CTX_set_verify(3)
       family of functions.  This document must therefore be updated when documentation about the X509_STORE object and its handling becomes
       available.

RETURN VALUES

       SSL_CTX_set_cert_store() does not return diagnostic output.

       SSL_CTX_get_cert_store() returns the current setting.
