3.5.0                                              2025-06-04                                  X509_VERIFY(3SSL)

X509_verify() verifies the signature of certificate x using public key pkey. Only the signature is
       checked: no other checks (such as certificate chain validity) are performed.

       X509_self_signed() checks whether certificate cert is self-signed.  For success the issuer and subject
       names must match, the components of the authority key identifier (if present) must match the subject key
       identifier etc.  The signature itself is actually verified only if verify_signature is 1, as for
       explicitly trusted certificates this verification is not worth the effort.

       X509_REQ_verify_ex(), X509_REQ_verify(), X509_CRL_verify() and X509_ACERT_verify() verify the signatures
       of certificate requests, CRLs and attribute certificates respectively.

       The X509_verify(), X509_REQ_verify(), and X509_CRL_verify() functions are available in all versions of
       OpenSSL.

       X509_REQ_verify_ex(), and X509_self_signed() were added in OpenSSL 3.0.

       X509_ACERT_verify() was added in OpenSSL 3.4.

       X509_verify, X509_self_signed, X509_REQ_verify_ex, X509_REQ_verify, X509_CRL_verify, X509_ACERT_verify -
       verify certificate, certificate request, or CRL signature

X509_verify(), X509_REQ_verify_ex(), X509_REQ_verify() and X509_CRL_verify() return 1 if the signature is
       valid and 0 if the signature check fails.  If the signature could not be checked at all because it was
       ill-formed, the certificate or the request was not complete or some other error occurred then -1 is
       returned.

       X509_self_signed() returns the same values but also returns 1 if all respective fields match and
       verify_signature is 0.
