If it wants to +set a certificate, a certificate/private key combination must be set +using the \fIx509\fR and \fIpkey\fR arguments and "1" must be returned. The +certificate will be installed into \fIssl\fR, see the NOTES and BUGS sections. +If no certificate should be set, "0" has to be returned and no certificate +will be sent. A negative return value will suspend the handshake and the +handshake function will return immediately. \fBSSL_get_error\fR\|(3) +will return SSL_ERROR_WANT_X509_LOOKUP to indicate, that the handshake was +suspended. The next call to the handshake function will again lead to the call +of \fIclient_cert_cb\fR. It is the job of the \fIclient_cert_cb\fR to store information +about the state of the last call, if required to continue. +.SH NOTES +.IX Header "NOTES" +During a handshake (or renegotiation) a server may request a certificate +from the client. A client certificate must only be sent, when the server +did send the request. +.PP +When a certificate was set using the +\&\fBSSL_CTX_use_certificate\fR\|(3) family of functions, +it will be sent to the server. The TLS standard requires that only a +certificate is sent, if it matches the list of acceptable CAs sent by the +server. This constraint is violated by the default behavior of the OpenSSL +library. Using the callback function it is possible to implement a proper +selection routine or to allow a user interaction to choose the certificate to +be sent. +.PP +If a callback function is defined and no certificate was yet defined for the +SSL object, the callback function will be called. +If the callback function returns a certificate, the OpenSSL library +will try to load the private key and certificate data into the SSL +object using the \fBSSL_use_certificate()\fR and \fBSSL_use_private_key()\fR functions. +Thus it will permanently install the certificate and key for this SSL +object. It will not be reset by calling \fBSSL_clear\fR\|(3). +If the callback returns no certificate, the OpenSSL library will not send +a certificate. +.SH "RETURN VALUES" +.IX Header "RETURN VALUES" +\&\fBSSL_CTX_get_client_cert_cb()\fR returns function pointer of \fIclient_cert_cb\fR or +NULL if the callback is not set. +.SH BUGS +.IX Header "BUGS" +The \fIclient_cert_cb\fR cannot return a complete certificate chain, it can +only return one client certificate. If the chain only has a length of 2, +the root CA certificate may be omitted according to the TLS standard and +thus a standard conforming answer can be sent to the server. For a +longer chain, the client must send the complete chain (with the option +to leave out the root CA certificate). This can only be accomplished by +either adding the intermediate CA certificates into the trusted +certificate store for the SSL_CTX object (resulting in having to add +CA certificates that otherwise maybe would not be trusted), or by adding +the chain certificates using the +\&\fBSSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert\fR\|(3) +function, which is only available for the SSL_CTX object as a whole and that +therefore probably can only apply for one client certificate, making +the concept of the callback function (to allow the choice from several +certificates) questionable. +.PP +Once the SSL object has been used in conjunction with the callback function, +the certificate will be set for the SSL object and will not be cleared +even when \fBSSL_clear\fR\|(3) is being called. It is therefore +mandatory to destroy the SSL object using \fBSSL_free\fR\|(3) +and create a new one to return to the previous state. +.SH "SEE ALSO" +.IX Header "SEE ALSO" +\&\fBssl\fR\|(7), \fBSSL_CTX_use_certificate\fR\|(3), +\&\fBSSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert\fR\|(3), +\&\fBSSL_get_client_CA_list\fR\|(3), +\&\fBSSL_clear\fR\|(3), \fBSSL_free\fR\|(3) +.SH COPYRIGHT +.IX Header "COPYRIGHT" +Copyright 2002\-2020 The OpenSSL Project Authors.
