[New-bugs-announce] [issue35665] Function ssl.create_default_context raises exception on Windows 10 when called with ssl.Purpose.SERVER_AUTH) attribute

[Vladimir Perić]

New submission from Vladimir Perić <pervlad at gmail.com>:

In Python 3.7.1 on Windows 10 ssl library function call ssl.create_default_context(ssl.Purpose.SERVER_AUTH) raises an ssl error:

File "C:\Python37\lib\ssl.py", line 471, in _load_windows_store_certs
    self.load_verify_locations(cadata=certs)
ssl.SSLError: nested asn1 error (_ssl.c:3926)

In Python 3.6.4 same function call raises no error.
