#1464 Tomcat's server cert should have subjectAltName
Closed: fixed 4 years ago by ftweedal. Opened 8 years ago by cheimes.

The SSL server doesn't conform to RFC 2818. Even with a fresh installation the server cert for the Tomcat instance on port 8443 has not subjectAltName extension. It should have a SAN extension with dNSName equal to its subject's CN.

Chrome has an outstanding bug to remove hostname matching in CN: [support for common names in certificates; only support Subject Alt Names]]([https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=308330|Remove)

I found the problem while I was working on #1253. With certificate validation, requests still emits a warning:

/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/requests/packages/urllib3/connection.py:251: SecurityWarning: Certificate has no subjectAltName, falling back to check for a commonName for now. This feature is being removed by major browsers and deprecated by RFC 2818. (See https://github.com/shazow/urllib3/issues/497 for details.)
