\& X509 *SSL_get_peer_certificate(SSL *ssl);
.Ve
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
\&\fISSL_get_peer_certificate()\fR returns a pointer to the X509 certificate the
peer presented. If the peer did not present a certificate, \s-1NULL\s0 is returned.
.SH "NOTES"
.IX Header "NOTES"
That a certificate is returned does not indicate information about the
verification state, use SSL_get_verify_result(3)
to check the verification state.
.PP
The reference count of the X509 object is incremented by one, so that it
will not be destroyed when the session containing the peer certificate is
freed. The X509 object must be explicitly freed using \fIX509_free()\fR.
.SH "RETURN VALUES"
.IX Header "RETURN VALUES"
The following return values can occur:
.Ip "\s-1NULL\s0" 4
.IX Item "NULL"
No certificate was presented by the peer or no connection was established.
.Ip "Pointer to an X509 certificate" 4
.IX Item "Pointer to an X509 certificate"
The return value points to the certificate presented by the peer.
