Hostname/IP doesn't match certificate's altnames even with agentOptions.servername set

axios version: 0.18.0 node version: 8.11.2

I’m getting the following this exception:

Hostname/IP doesn't match certificate's altnames: "Host: localhost. is not in the cert's altnames: DNS:localhost.company.com"

When trying to make the following request:

axios({
	method: 'get',
	url: `https://localhost:${API_PORT}`,
	agentOptions: new https.Agent({
		pfx: clientCert,
		passphrase: password,
		ca: ca,
		servername: 'localhost.company.com'
	})
});

The altname for the certificate was signed as “localhost.company.com”. When I make the same request w/ request-promise it works, it seems the ‘servername’ field doesnt get honor.

request({
	method: 'GET',
	uri: `https://localhost:${API_PORT}`,
	agentOptions: {
		pfx: clientCert,
		passphrase: password,
		ca: ca,
		servername: 'localhost.company.com'
	}
})
``

@b4dnewz If you’re using nodejs put this before make the request:

process.env.NODE_TLS_REJECT_UNAUTHORIZED = false

Axios also support it…

// At instance level
const instance = axios.create({
  httpsAgent: new https.Agent({  
    rejectUnauthorized: false
  })
});
instance.get('https://something.com/foo');

// At request level
const agent = new https.Agent({  
  rejectUnauthorized: false
});
axios.get('https://something.com/foo', { httpsAgent: agent });
