Abstract:
Počas práce s protokolom TLS sa vývojári často stretávajú s chybami pri validácii certifikátov. V takých situáciách môžu byť ich rozhodnutia kritické vzhľadom na bezpečnosť implementovaných systémov. Chybové hlášky sa však medzi TLS knižnicami líšia, pričom ich oficiálna dokumetácia vo väčšine prípadov nie je veľmi nápomocná.
