https://ruby.github.io/openssl/OpenSSL/SSL/SSLContext.html documents the option
verify_hostnameas whether to check the server certificate is valid for the hostname.But when I set
verify_hostnametofalseintls_options, it has no effect, it still reports the error "hostname does not match the server certificate".Then I found this is the result of #259 but the assumption is wrong that users who don't care about hostname validation should set
verify_modetoOpenSSL::SSL::VERIFY_NONE. This disables the certificate validation completely. Maybe the reason why #259 didn't add a check forverify_hostnameis becauseverify_hostnamewas added later in ruby/openssl#60 (i.e. the same year but a few months later).So for more fine-grained configuration to disable only hostname verification without disabling certificate validation, here is this pull request.
