Hi,
the patch below adds a --dont-verify-CN option to the command line curl.
Normally curl verifies the common name part of the peer certificate to match
the requested host name. This prevents connections to SSL hosts by IP address
or by a name that differs from the certificate's Common Name.
The -k option can be provided to turn off entirely peer certificate
verification but there was no way to let curl check the peer certificate
against a signer and skip only the common name check.
The new option --dont-verify-CN provides a way.
The patch is made with 7.10.5.
