How to verify SSL certificates on the command line?
To validate an SSL certificate you can use one of the following approaches, depending on the type of the certificate.
PEM format certificate
If you want to validate the PEM format certificate, run the following command:
openssl verify cert.pem
CA bundle
If your CA bundle is a file containing additional intermediate certificates in the PEM format, you can use the following command:
openssl verify -untrusted ca-bundle cert.pem
If your openssl isn't set up to automatically use an installed set of root
certificates (e.g. in /etc/ssl/certs), you can use CApath or CAfile to
specify the CA.
