Load a PEM certificate and chase its AIA extension to build the issuer chain.

from aia import chase from OpenSSL import crypto cert = crypto.load_certificate(crypto.FILETYPE_PEM, open('cert.pem').read()) chain = chase(cert, store=None) print('Chain length:', len(chain))

Debug

Known issues

breakingThe library is pre-1.0 and may have breaking changes between minor versions. The API surface is small but not stable.

fix

Pin dependency to exact version: aia==0.2.0

affects: <1.0.0

gotchaRequires OpenSSL installed on the system (libssl-dev on Debian). Fails silently if OpenSSL not found.

fix

Install OpenSSL development headers: apt-get install libssl-dev

affects: all

gotchaThe 'chase' function may hang or timeout if the AIA URL is unreachable or slow. No default timeout.

fix

Wrap call with timeout or run in a separate thread with timeout.

affects: all
