In each revision of "getpeercert", a few more fields are returned. Python 3.2 added "issuer" and "notBefore". Python 3.4 added "crlDistributionPoints", "caIssuers", and OCSP URLS. But some fields still aren't returned. I happen to need CertificatePolicies, which is how you distinguish DV, OV, and EV certs.
Here's what you get now: {'OCSP': ('http://EVSecure-ocsp.verisign.com',), 'caIssuers': ('http://EVSecure-aia.verisign.com/EVSecure2006.cer',), 'crlDistributionPoints': ('http://EVSecure-crl.verisign.com/EVSecure2006.crl',), 'issuer': ((('countryName', 'US'),), (('organizationName', 'VeriSign, Inc.'),), (('organizationalUnitName', 'VeriSign Trust Network'),), (('organizationalUnitName', 'Terms of use at https://www.verisign.com/rpa (c)06'),), (('commonName', 'VeriSign Class 3 Extended Validation SSL CA'),)), 'notAfter': 'Mar 22 23:59:59 2015 GMT', 'notBefore': 'Feb 20 00:00:00 2014 GMT', 'serialNumber': '69A7BC85C106DDE1CF4FA47D5ED813DC', 'subject': ((('1.3.6.1.4.1.311.60.2.1.3', 'US'),), (('1.3.6.1.4.1.311.60.2.1.2', 'Delaware'),), (('businessCategory', 'Private Organization'),), (('serialNumber', '2927442'),), (('countryName', 'US'),), (('postalCode', '60603'),), (('stateOrProvinceName', 'Illinois'),), (('localityName', 'Chicago'),), (('streetAddress', '135 S La Salle St'),), (('organizationName', 'Bank of America Corporation'),), (('organizationalUnitName', 'Network Infrastructure'),), (('commonName', 'www.bankofamerica.com'),)), 'subjectAltName': (('DNS', 'mobile.bankofamerica.com'), ('DNS', 'www.bankofamerica.com')), 'version': 3} How about just returning ALL the remaining fields and finishing the job?
