[issue39616] SSLContext.check_hostname description is inaccurate wrt match_hostname
New submission from Ville Skyttä <ville.skytta@iki.fi>: Doc says "Whether to match the peer cert’s hostname with match_hostname() in SSLSocket.do_handshake()." but match_hostname() is no longer used to do that in the first place, OpenSSL is used for that. check_hostname affects the OpenSSL usage, too. ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation messages: 361892 nosy: docs@python, scop priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: SSLContext.check_hostname description is inaccurate wrt match_hostname type: enhancement _______________________________________ Python tracker <report@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue39616> _______________________________________
