<h3 id="commonname">X.509 CommonName deprecation</h3>
<p><!-- CL 231379 -->
The deprecated, legacy behavior of treating the <code>CommonName</code>
field on X.509 certificates as a host name when no Subject Alternative Names
are present is now disabled by default. It can be temporarily re-enabled by
adding the value <code>x509ignoreCN=0</code> to the <code>GODEBUG</code>
environment variable.
</p>
<p>
Note that if the <code>CommonName</code> is an invalid host name, it's always
ignored, regardless of <code>GODEBUG</code> settings. Invalid names include
those with any characters other than letters, digits, hyphens and underscores,
and those with empty labels or trailing dots.
