[New-bugs-announce] [issue18233] SSLSocket.getpeercertchain()

[Christian Heimes]

New submission from Christian Heimes:

The patch implements a method getpeercertchain() on a SSLSocket. It returns the peer's certificate chain from the leaf cert to the root cert if available. It wraps SSL_get_peer_cert_chain().

SSL_get_peer_cert_chain() doesn't have to pull any additional data from the peer. The information is already exchanged for cert validation.
