- Support hostname verification via alternative names (SAN) in the peer certificate when CURLOPT_CAINFO is used in Windows 7 and earlier. CERT_NAME_SEARCH_ALL_NAMES_FLAG doesn't exist before Windows 8. As a result CertGetNameString doesn't quite work on those versions of Windows. This change provides an alternative solution for CertGetNameString by iterating through CERT_ALT_NAME_INFO for earlier versions of Windows. Prior to this change many certificates failed the hostname validation when CURLOPT_CAINFO was used in Windows 7 and earlier. Most certificates now represent multiple hostnames and rely on the alternative names field exclusively to represent their hostnames.
