New submission from STINNER Victor: Hi,
I just modified the Trollius project ( http://trollius.readthedocs.org/ ) to support Python 2.7 with the newly backported ssl module. I ran the test suite of the Trollius and some tests are failing because of the exact exception message. It looks like ssl._dnsname_match() calls repr() on a Unicode string: elif len(dnsnames) == 1: raise CertificateError("hostname %r " "doesn't match %r" % (hostname, dnsnames[0])) Well, I don't know if using repr() on an unicode string is really a bug or not. By the way, Trollius currently pass the hostname as a bytes string, whereas match_hostname() uses Unicode. No error is raised. Is it safe to compare bytes and Unicode to validate a certificate? dnsname[0] comes from the commonName of the certificate subject. The certificate used in Trollius test can be found at: https://bitbucket.org/enovance/trollius/src/d456dd5103b0e2a35ef27fe0d55583b74a8196dd/tests/keycert3.pem?at=trollius Example of error: ====================================================================== FAIL: test_create_server_ssl_match_failed (test_events.EPollEventLoopTests) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Traceback (most recent call last): File "tests/test_events.py", line 951, in test_create_server_ssl_match_failed self.loop.run_until_complete(f_c) File "/home/haypo/prog/HG/trollius/trollius/test_utils.py", line 137, in __exit__ expected_regex.pattern, str(exc_value))) File "/home/haypo/prog/HG/trollius/trollius/test_utils.py", line 75, in _raiseFailure raise self.test_case.failureException(msg) AssertionError: "hostname '127.0.0.1' doesn't match 'localhost'" does not match "hostname '127.0.0.1' doesn't match u'localhost'" ---------- messages: 231108 nosy: alex, haypo priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: [2.7] ssl._dnsname_match() and unicode versions: Python 2.7 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue22861> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
