Ssl::verify_certificate( string|WpOrgRequestsStringable $host, array $cert )
Verify the certificate against common name and subject alternative names
Description
Unfortunately, PHP doesn’t check the certificate against the alternative names, leading things like ‘https://www.github.com/‘ to be invalid.
Parameters
- $host
-
(Required) Host name to verify against
- $cert
-
(Required) Certificate data from openssl_x509_parse()
Return
(bool)
