What did you do?

I want test my code with postman proxy feature for capture the requests for debugging calls

set postman proxy enable
set env:

https_proxy="http://localhost:5555"
http_proxy="http://localhost:5555"

Use this code: https://go.dev/play/p/-ZSKEDqWyL8
You will get an output like this:

response <nil>
error Get "https://www.google.com": tls: failed to parse certificate from server: x509: invalid RDNSequence: invalid attribute value: invalid PrintableString

What did you expect to see?

This certificate is valid for many tools (check below), so the parsing of this certificate must be ok.
"Or" InsecureSkipVerify maybe bypass the handshake ???
With the current implementation I have no way to bypass this check.

What did you see instead?

Certificate not parsed, cause an email with an "@" is not parsed.
Failure in this method:

go/src/crypto/x509/parser.go

Lines 30 to 51 in 5f2fdbe

// isPrintable reports whether the given b is in the ASN.1 PrintableString set.
// This is a simplified version of encoding/asn1.isPrintable.
func isPrintable(b byte) bool {
return 'a' <= b && b <= 'z' ||
'A' <= b && b <= 'Z' ||
'0' <= b && b <= '9' ||
'\'' <= b && b <= ')' ||
'+' <= b && b <= '/' ||
b == ' ' ||
b == ':' ||
b == '=' ||
b == '?' ||
// This is technically not allowed in a PrintableString.
// However, x509 certificates with wildcard strings don't
// always use the correct string type so we permit it.
b == '*' ||
// This is not technically allowed either. However, not
// only is it relatively common, but there are also a
// handful of CA certificates that contain it. At least
// one of which will not expire until 2027.
b == '&'
}

Which not accept "@"

When I see the comments, I think we can add a block for '@'

I dont know why this problem is not for all certificate, all CA are without email ???? or mayby i'm doing something wrong :)

At least If someone have a way to bypass this check ?

Whatever is generating that certificate is broken. The @ character is explicitly not allowed in PrintableStrings, it should be using IA5String, which does allow inclusion of @. This is specified in RFC 5280.

Hi @rolandshoemaker thanks for your reply.

why openssl asn1parse works ? How we set an email so in asn1?

@rolandshoemaker
Copy link
Member

openssl asn1parse is just showing the encoding of the input, it does no validation of the contents.

Assuming this certificate was generated by postman, you should report this bug to them so they can re-generate the certificate using the correct encoding. There is no work around in Go to accept this invalid encoding.

yes @rolandshoemaker already done :)

Any way to bypass the parsing atm?
