+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
+These functions manipulate the \fBX509_VERIFY_PARAM\fR structure associated with
+a certificate verification operation.
+.PP
+The \fBX509_VERIFY_PARAM_set_flags()\fR function sets the flags in \fBparam\fR by oring
+it with \fBflags\fR. See "VERIFICATION FLAGS" for a complete
+description of values the \fBflags\fR parameter can take.
+.PP
+\&\fBX509_VERIFY_PARAM_get_flags()\fR returns the flags in \fBparam\fR.
+.PP
+\&\fBX509_VERIFY_PARAM_get_inh_flags()\fR returns the inheritance flags in \fBparam\fR
+which specifies how verification flags are copied from one structure to
+another. \fBX509_VERIFY_PARAM_set_inh_flags()\fR sets the inheritance flags.
+See the \fBINHERITANCE FLAGS\fR section for a description of these bits.
+.PP
+\&\fBX509_VERIFY_PARAM_clear_flags()\fR clears the flags \fBflags\fR in \fBparam\fR.
+.PP
+\&\fBX509_VERIFY_PARAM_set_purpose()\fR sets the verification purpose in \fBparam\fR
+to \fBpurpose\fR. This determines the acceptable purpose of the certificate
+chain, for example \fBX509_PURPOSE_SSL_CLIENT\fR.
+The purpose requirement is cleared if \fBpurpose\fR is X509_PURPOSE_DEFAULT_ANY.
+.PP
+\&\fBX509_VERIFY_PARAM_get_purpose()\fR returns the purpose in \fBparam\fR.
+.PP
+\&\fBX509_VERIFY_PARAM_set_trust()\fR sets the trust setting in \fBparam\fR to
+\&\fBtrust\fR.
+.PP
+\&\fBX509_VERIFY_PARAM_set_time()\fR sets the verification time in \fBparam\fR to
+\&\fBt\fR. Normally the current time is used.
+.PP
+\&\fBX509_VERIFY_PARAM_add0_policy()\fR adds \fBpolicy\fR to the acceptable policy set.
+Contrary to preexisting documentation of this function it does not enable
+policy checking.
+.PP
+\&\fBX509_VERIFY_PARAM_set1_policies()\fR enables policy checking (it is disabled
+by default) and sets the acceptable policy set to \fBpolicies\fR. Any existing
+policy set is cleared. The \fBpolicies\fR parameter can be \fBNULL\fR to clear
+an existing policy set.
+.PP
+\&\fBX509_VERIFY_PARAM_set_depth()\fR sets the maximum verification depth to \fBdepth\fR.
+That is the maximum number of intermediate CA certificates that can appear in a
+chain.
+A maximal depth chain contains 2 more certificates than the limit, since
+neither the end-entity certificate nor the trust-anchor count against this
+limit.
+Thus a \fBdepth\fR limit of 0 only allows the end-entity certificate to be signed
+directly by the trust anchor, while with a \fBdepth\fR limit of 1 there can be one
+intermediate CA certificate between the trust anchor and the end-entity
+certificate.
+.PP
+\&\fBX509_VERIFY_PARAM_set_auth_level()\fR sets the authentication security level to
+\&\fBauth_level\fR.
+The authentication security level determines the acceptable signature and public
+key strength when verifying certificate chains.
+For a certificate chain to validate, the public keys of all the certificates
+must meet the specified security level.
+The signature algorithm security level is not enforced for the chain's \fItrust
+anchor\fR certificate, which is either directly trusted or validated by means other
+than its signature.
+See \fBSSL_CTX_set_security_level\fR\|(3) for the definitions of the available
+levels.
+The default security level is \-1, or "not set".
+At security level 0 or lower all algorithms are acceptable.
+Security level 1 requires at least 80\-bit\-equivalent security and is broadly
+interoperable, though it will, for example, reject MD5 signatures or RSA keys
+shorter than 1024 bits.
+.PP
+\&\fBX509_VERIFY_PARAM_get0_host()\fR returns the \fBn\fRth expected DNS hostname that has
+been set using \fBX509_VERIFY_PARAM_set1_host()\fR or \fBX509_VERIFY_PARAM_add1_host()\fR.
+To obtain all names start with \fBn\fR = 0 and increment \fBn\fR as long as no NULL
+pointer is returned.
+.PP
+\&\fBX509_VERIFY_PARAM_set1_host()\fR sets the expected DNS hostname to
+\&\fBname\fR clearing any previously specified hostname. If
+\&\fBname\fR is NULL, or empty the list of hostnames is cleared, and
+name checks are not performed on the peer certificate. If \fBname\fR
+is NUL-terminated, \fBnamelen\fR may be zero, otherwise \fBnamelen\fR
+must be set to the length of \fBname\fR.
+.PP
+When a hostname is specified,
+certificate verification automatically invokes \fBX509_check_host\fR\|(3)
+with flags equal to the \fBflags\fR argument given to
+\&\fBX509_VERIFY_PARAM_set_hostflags()\fR (default zero). Applications
+are strongly advised to use this interface in preference to explicitly
+calling \fBX509_check_host\fR\|(3), hostname checks may be out of scope
+with the \fBDANE\-EE\fR\|(3) certificate usage, and the internal check will
+be suppressed as appropriate when DANE verification is enabled.
+.PP
+When the subject CommonName will not be ignored, whether as a result of the
+\&\fBX509_CHECK_FLAG_ALWAYS_CHECK_SUBJECT\fR host flag, or because no DNS subject
+alternative names are present in the certificate, any DNS name constraints in
+issuer certificates apply to the subject CommonName as well as the subject
+alternative name extension.
+.PP
+When the subject CommonName will be ignored, whether as a result of the
+\&\fBX509_CHECK_FLAG_NEVER_CHECK_SUBJECT\fR host flag, or because some DNS subject
+alternative names are present in the certificate, DNS name constraints in
+issuer certificates will not be applied to the subject DN.
+As described in \fBX509_check_host\fR\|(3) the \fBX509_CHECK_FLAG_NEVER_CHECK_SUBJECT\fR
+flag takes precedence over the \fBX509_CHECK_FLAG_ALWAYS_CHECK_SUBJECT\fR flag.
+.PP
+\&\fBX509_VERIFY_PARAM_get_hostflags()\fR returns any host flags previously set via a
+call to \fBX509_VERIFY_PARAM_set_hostflags()\fR.
+.PP
+\&\fBX509_VERIFY_PARAM_add1_host()\fR adds \fBname\fR as an additional reference
+identifier that can match the peer's certificate. Any previous names
+set via \fBX509_VERIFY_PARAM_set1_host()\fR or \fBX509_VERIFY_PARAM_add1_host()\fR
+are retained, no change is made if \fBname\fR is NULL or empty. When
+multiple names are configured, the peer is considered verified when
+any name matches.
+.PP
+\&\fBX509_VERIFY_PARAM_get0_peername()\fR returns the DNS hostname or subject
+CommonName from the peer certificate that matched one of the reference
+identifiers. When wildcard matching is not disabled, or when a
+reference identifier specifies a parent domain (starts with ".")
+rather than a hostname, the peer name may be a wildcard name or a
+sub-domain of the reference identifier respectively. The return
+string is allocated by the library and is no longer valid once the
+associated \fBparam\fR argument is freed. Applications must not free
+the return value.
+.PP
+\&\fBX509_VERIFY_PARAM_get0_email()\fR returns the expected RFC822 email address.
+.PP
+\&\fBX509_VERIFY_PARAM_set1_email()\fR sets the expected RFC822 email address to
+\&\fBemail\fR. If \fBemail\fR is NUL-terminated, \fBemaillen\fR may be zero, otherwise
+\&\fBemaillen\fR must be set to the length of \fBemail\fR. When an email address
+is specified, certificate verification automatically invokes
+\&\fBX509_check_email\fR\|(3).
+.PP
+\&\fBX509_VERIFY_PARAM_get1_ip_asc()\fR returns the expected IP address as a string.
+The caller is responsible for freeing it.
+.PP
+\&\fBX509_VERIFY_PARAM_set1_ip()\fR sets the expected IP address to \fBip\fR.
+The \fBip\fR argument is in binary format, in network byte-order and
+\&\fBiplen\fR must be set to 4 for IPv4 and 16 for IPv6. When an IP
+address is specified, certificate verification automatically invokes
+\&\fBX509_check_ip\fR\|(3).
+.PP
+\&\fBX509_VERIFY_PARAM_set1_ip_asc()\fR sets the expected IP address to
+\&\fBipasc\fR. The \fBipasc\fR argument is a NUL-terminal ASCII string:
+dotted decimal quad for IPv4 and colon-separated hexadecimal for
+IPv6. The condensed "::" notation is supported for IPv6 addresses.

+.SH "VERIFICATION FLAGS"
+.IX Header "VERIFICATION FLAGS"
+The verification flags consists of zero or more of the following flags
+ored together.
+.PP
+\&\fBX509_V_FLAG_CRL_CHECK\fR enables CRL checking for the certificate chain leaf
+certificate. An error occurs if a suitable CRL cannot be found.
+.PP
+\&\fBX509_V_FLAG_CRL_CHECK_ALL\fR expands CRL checking to the entire certificate
+chain if \fBX509_V_FLAG_CRL_CHECK\fR has also been enabled, and is otherwise ignored.
+.PP
+\&\fBX509_V_FLAG_IGNORE_CRITICAL\fR disables critical extension checking. By default
+any unhandled critical extensions in certificates or (if checked) CRLs result
+in a fatal error. If this flag is set unhandled critical extensions are
+ignored. \fBWARNING\fR setting this option for anything other than debugging
+purposes can be a security risk. Finer control over which extensions are
+supported can be performed in the verification callback.
+.PP
+The \fBX509_V_FLAG_X509_STRICT\fR flag disables workarounds for some broken
+certificates and makes the verification strictly apply \fBX509\fR rules.
+.PP
+\&\fBX509_V_FLAG_ALLOW_PROXY_CERTS\fR enables proxy certificate verification.
+.PP
+\&\fBX509_V_FLAG_POLICY_CHECK\fR enables certificate policy checking, by default
+no policy checking is performed. Additional information is sent to the
+verification callback relating to policy checking.
+.PP
+\&\fBX509_V_FLAG_EXPLICIT_POLICY\fR, \fBX509_V_FLAG_INHIBIT_ANY\fR and
+\&\fBX509_V_FLAG_INHIBIT_MAP\fR set the \fBrequire explicit policy\fR, \fBinhibit any
+policy\fR and \fBinhibit policy mapping\fR flags respectively as defined in
+\&\fBRFC3280\fR. Policy checking is automatically enabled if any of these flags
+are set.
+.PP
+If \fBX509_V_FLAG_NOTIFY_POLICY\fR is set and the policy checking is successful
+a special status code is set to the verification callback. This permits it
+to examine the valid policy tree and perform additional checks or simply
+log it for debugging purposes.
+.PP
+By default some additional features such as indirect CRLs and CRLs signed by
+different keys are disabled. If \fBX509_V_FLAG_EXTENDED_CRL_SUPPORT\fR is set
+they are enabled.
+.PP
+If \fBX509_V_FLAG_USE_DELTAS\fR is set delta CRLs (if present) are used to
+determine certificate status. If not set deltas are ignored.
+.PP
+\&\fBX509_V_FLAG_CHECK_SS_SIGNATURE\fR requests checking the signature of
+the last certificate in a chain if the certificate is supposedly self-signed.
+This is prohibited and will result in an error if it is a non-conforming CA
+certificate with key usage restrictions not including the \fIkeyCertSign\fR bit.
+By default this check is disabled because it doesn't
+add any additional security but in some cases applications might want to
+check the signature anyway. A side effect of not checking the self-signature
+of such a certificate is that disabled or unsupported message digests used for
+the signature are not treated as fatal errors.
+.PP
+When \fBX509_V_FLAG_TRUSTED_FIRST\fR is set, which is always the case since
+OpenSSL 1.1.0, construction of the certificate chain
+in \fBX509_verify_cert\fR\|(3) searches the trust store for issuer certificates
+before searching the provided untrusted certificates.
+Local issuer certificates are often more likely to satisfy local security
+requirements and lead to a locally trusted root.
+This is especially important when some certificates in the trust store have
+explicit trust settings (see "TRUST SETTINGS" in \fBopenssl\-x509\fR\|(1)).
+.PP
+The \fBX509_V_FLAG_NO_ALT_CHAINS\fR flag could have been used before OpenSSL 1.1.0
+to suppress checking for alternative chains.
+By default, unless \fBX509_V_FLAG_TRUSTED_FIRST\fR is set, when building a
+certificate chain, if the first certificate chain found is not trusted, then
+OpenSSL will attempt to replace untrusted certificates supplied by the peer
+with certificates from the trust store to see if an alternative chain can be
+found that is trusted.
+As of OpenSSL 1.1.0, with \fBX509_V_FLAG_TRUSTED_FIRST\fR always set, this option
+has no effect.
+.PP
+The \fBX509_V_FLAG_PARTIAL_CHAIN\fR flag causes non-self-signed certificates in the
+trust store to be treated as trust anchors, in the same way as self-signed
+root CA certificates.
+This makes it possible to trust self-issued certificates as well as certificates
+issued by an intermediate CA without having to trust their ancestor root CA.
+With OpenSSL 1.1.0 and later and \fBX509_V_FLAG_PARTIAL_CHAIN\fR set, chain
+construction stops as soon as the first certificate contained in the trust store
+is added to the chain, whether that certificate is a self-signed "root"
+certificate or a not self-signed "intermediate" or self-issued certificate.
+Thus, when an intermediate certificate is found in the trust store, the
+verified chain passed to callbacks may be shorter than it otherwise would
+be without the \fBX509_V_FLAG_PARTIAL_CHAIN\fR flag.
+.PP
+The \fBX509_V_FLAG_NO_CHECK_TIME\fR flag suppresses checking the validity period
+of certificates and CRLs against the current time. If \fBX509_VERIFY_PARAM_set_time()\fR
+is used to specify a verification time, the check is not suppressed.
+.SH "INHERITANCE FLAGS"
+.IX Header "INHERITANCE FLAGS"
+These flags specify how parameters are "inherited" from one structure to
+another.
+.PP
+If \fBX509_VP_FLAG_ONCE\fR is set then the current setting is zeroed
+after the next call.
+.PP
+If \fBX509_VP_FLAG_LOCKED\fR is set then no values are copied. This overrides
+all of the following flags.
+.PP
+If \fBX509_VP_FLAG_DEFAULT\fR is set then anything set in the source is copied
+to the destination. Effectively the values in "to" become default values
+which will be used only if nothing new is set in "from". This is the
+default.
+.PP
+If \fBX509_VP_FLAG_OVERWRITE\fR is set then all value are copied across whether
+they are set or not. Flags is still Ored though.
+.PP
+If \fBX509_VP_FLAG_RESET_FLAGS\fR is set then the flags value is copied instead
+of ORed.
+.SH NOTES
+.IX Header "NOTES"
+The above functions should be used to manipulate verification parameters
+instead of functions which work in specific structures such as
+\&\fBX509_STORE_CTX_set_flags()\fR which are likely to be deprecated in a future
+release.
+.SH BUGS
+.IX Header "BUGS"
+Delta CRL checking is currently primitive. Only a single delta can be used and
+(partly due to limitations of \fBX509_STORE\fR) constructed CRLs are not
+maintained.
+.PP
+If CRLs checking is enable CRLs are expected to be available in the
+corresponding \fBX509_STORE\fR structure. No attempt is made to download
+CRLs from the CRL distribution points extension.
