Paketti: python3-pyhanko-certvalidator (0.26.3-2)

Validates X.509 certificates and paths

A Python library that offers functionality for validating X.509 digital certificates, which are widely used in security systems such as TLS/SSL, email encryption, PDF signatures, and more.

The pyhanko-certvalidator library performs the following main tasks:

 - Certificate Validation: The library checks the validity of X.509
   digital certificates. This includes checking the certificate signature,
   expiration date, issuing authority (CA), certificate revocation, and
   other important properties.
 - Chain of Trust: It helps to build and validate the certificate chain,
   that is, the sequence of certificates that links a specific certificate
   to a trusted certification authority (root CA).
 - CRL (Certificate Revocation Lists) Check: The library checks whether a
   certificate has been revoked by querying Certificate Revocation Lists
   (CRLs) published by certification authorities.
 - Online Certificate Status Protocol (OCSP) Check: In addition to CRL
   checking, certvalidator can check the status of a certificate through
   the Online Certificate Status Protocol (OCSP) to determine whether the
   certificate is still valid.
 - Custom Expiration Policy: You can configure and apply custom validity
   policies to meet specific certificate validation requirements.
 - Extensibility: The library is designed to be extensible and customizable.
