<p>SSL_get_peer_certificate, SSL_get0_peer_certificate, SSL_get1_peer_certificate - get the X509 certificate of the peer</p>
<h1 id="SYNOPSIS">SYNOPSIS</h1>
<pre><code> #include &lt;openssl/ssl.h&gt;
X509 *SSL_get0_peer_certificate(const SSL *ssl);
X509 *SSL_get1_peer_certificate(const SSL *ssl);</code></pre>
<p>The following function has been deprecated since OpenSSL 3.0, and can be hidden entirely by defining <b>OPENSSL_API_COMPAT</b> with a suitable version value, see <a href="../man7/openssl_user_macros.html">openssl_user_macros(7)</a>:</p>
<pre><code> X509 *SSL_get_peer_certificate(const SSL *ssl);</code></pre>
<h1 id="DESCRIPTION">DESCRIPTION</h1>
<p>These functions return a pointer to the X509 certificate the peer presented. If the peer did not present a certificate, NULL is returned.</p>
<h1 id="NOTES">NOTES</h1>
<p>Due to the protocol definition, a TLS/SSL server will always send a certificate, if present. A client will only send a certificate when explicitly requested to do so by the server (see <a href="../man3/SSL_CTX_set_verify.html">SSL_CTX_set_verify(3)</a>). If an anonymous cipher is used, no certificates are sent.</p>
<p>That a certificate is returned does not indicate information about the verification state, use <a href="../man3/SSL_get_verify_result.html">SSL_get_verify_result(3)</a> to check the verification state.</p>
<p>The reference count of the X509 object returned by SSL_get1_peer_certificate() is incremented by one, so that it will not be destroyed when the session containing the peer certificate is freed. The X509 object must be explicitly freed using X509_free().</p>
<p>The reference count of the X509 object returned by SSL_get0_peer_certificate() is not incremented, and must not be freed.</p>
<p>SSL_get_peer_certificate() is an alias of SSL_get1_peer_certificate().</p>
<h1 id="RETURN-VALUES">RETURN VALUES</h1>
<p>The following return values can occur:</p>
<dl>
<dt id="NULL">NULL</dt>
<dd>
<p>No certificate was presented by the peer or no connection was established.</p>
</dd>
<dt id="Pointer-to-an-X509-certificate">Pointer to an X509 certificate</dt>
<dd>
<p>The return value points to the certificate presented by the peer.</p>
</dd>

<h1 id="HISTORY">HISTORY</h1>
<p>SSL_get0_peer_certificate() and SSL_get1_peer_certificate() were added in 3.0.0. SSL_get_peer_certificate() was deprecated in 3.0.0.</p>
