SSL certificate for iPhone -> which CA?

I find all these work-arounds for NSUrlConnection's which use a closed API to access a non-trusted SSL certificate. The other options is to install the certificate first by using the Safari/Mail app..

I'd like to know what root certificates 开发者_开发问答are installed, so I can get one from the trusted CA, the way you're supposed to do it..

Anyone have an idea what CA I need?

Here is a list of the available CA pre installed on the iphone

You can get your certificates signed by any of these authorities or you can sign your own certificates and create your own CA using OpenSSL

You can in fact accept a self-signed SSL cert using public APIs:

- (BOOL)connection:(NSURLConnection *)connection canAuthenticateAgainstProtectionSpace:(NSURLProtectionSpace *)protectionSpace {
    return [protectionSpace.authenticationMethod isEqualToString:NSURLAuthenticationMethodServerTrust];
}

- (void)connection:(NSURLConnection *)connection didReceiveAuthenticationChallenge:(NSURLAuthenticationChallenge *)challenge {
    if ([challenge.protectionSpace.authenticationMethod isEqualToString:NSURLAuthenticationMethodServerTrust]) {
        [challenge.sender useCredential:[NSURLCredential credentialForTrust:challenge.protectionSpace.serverTrust] forAuthenticationChallenge:challenge];
    }

    [challenge.sender continueWithoutCredentialForAuthenticationChallenge:challenge];
}
