I think the issue is a missing match of GeneralName::DirectoryName in the closure given to iterate_names.

No, that's not it. It's simpler: I just didn't implement the fallback to parsing dNSName and iPAddress out of Subject CNs because I wasn't sure if it was worth doing.
This is similar to other things I dropped (compared to mozilla::pkix), such as dropping support for v1 certificates.
I don't think I strongly object to the fallback being added back, but I'm not planning to do it myself soon.
I checked the CAB baseline requirements and subjectAltName is indeed required, so I've decided I also don't care very much. My knowledge of how this all works in about 10 years out of date :)
Thanks! :+1:
OK, I'm closing this. My goal is to avoid the bad stuff, and the Subject CN overloading is pretty bad, so I'm glad to not implement it.
Thank you very much to everyone who tracked this down!
I just discovered that citusdata.com uses CN-only certificates for PostgreSQL databases. These will fail with BadCertificate because of the issue discussed above. As expected, the following output lacks a DNS: line:
❯ openssl s_client -starttls postgres -showcerts -connect c.$DATABASE_NAME.db.citusdata.com:5432 </dev/null 2>/dev/null | openssl x509 -noout -text | grep db.citusdata.com
Subject: CN = *.$DATABASE_NAME.db.citusdata.com
Citus was acquired by Microsoft, and it will be shut down early next year. So this isn't necessarily a pressing issue. But these broken certs are still used by major vendors, in at least some cases.
(Oh, and I only figured this out because I'm trying to get dbcrossbar running on the new ARM Macs, and this is one of the last issues, AFAICT. Before ARM, we used openssl, but it caused endless distribution issues.)
I am open to providing not-enabled-by-default support for DNS names in the subject common name field. It would be good for somebody to design the API for people to opt into that. In general we don't have a configuration API in this crate; this would be one of the first bits of configuration. I filed #249 for designing and implementing the base configuration API on top of which we can add configuration such as this.
Thank you for looking to this!
Since Citus Data has only weeks to live, I'm switching dbcrossbar over webpki ahead of schedule.
Unfortunately, it's unlikely that we'll be able to work on support for DNS names in the common name field in the foreseeable future.
And of course, many thanks for providing very useful TLS support in Rust!
