Changes for version 1.62 - 2014-05-19

  • Improvements to OCSP support: It turns out that some CA (like Verisign) sign the OCSP response with the CA we have in the trust store and don't attach this certifcate in the response. But OpenSSL by itself only considers the certificates included in the response and SSL_OCSP_response_verify added the certificates in the chain too. Now, we also add the trusted CA from the store which signed the lowest chain certificate, at least if we could not verify the OCSP response without doing it. Patch from Steffen Ullrich. Thanks. Fixed some compiler warnings.
