Require SSL Server Certificate Domain Match

See more HTTP Examples

Demonstrates how to require that the SSL server certificate's domain matches the intended domain. Ruby

require 'chilkat'

success = false

# This example assumes the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
# See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

http = Chilkat::CkHttp.new()

# Call SetSslCertRequirement to require that the SSL server certificate's domain
# matches only the domain we are intending to communicate with.

# In this example we will test with the URL https://wrong.host.badssl.com/
# which intentionally has an SSL certificate that does not match "wrong.host.badssl.com"

http.SetSslCertRequirement("SAN","wrong.host.badssl.com")

# Also validate the server cert..
http.put_RequireSslCertVerify(true)

# Try sending the request.  It should fail within the SSL/TLS handshake
# because the server's certificate does not match the domain "wrong.host.badssl.com"
html = http.quickGetStr("https://wrong.host.badssl.com/")
if (http.get_LastMethodSuccess() == false)
    print http.lastErrorText() + "\n";
else
    print "Unexpected success." + "\n";
