如何检查CA颁发的PEM证书的有效性

I have a certificate (PEM), and I'd like to check if the certificate is valid and signed by CA. I already have the CA certificate (PEM). What is a simple, but secure way to check the certificate in Go, using the standard crypto/x509 package?

You need to use Certificate.Verify(). There is an example for exactly what you want to do in the docs:

https://golang.org/pkg/crypto/x509/#example_Certificate_Verify

func verifyCert(rootPEM, certPEM string, name string) error {
    roots := x509.NewCertPool()
    ok := roots.AppendCertsFromPEM([]byte(rootPEM))
    if !ok {
        return fmt.Errorf("failed to parse root certificate")
    }

    block, _ := pem.Decode([]byte(certPEM))
    if block == nil {
        return fmt.Errorf("failed to parse certificate PEM")
    }
    cert, err := x509.ParseCertificate(block.Bytes)
    if err != nil {
        return fmt.Errorf("failed to parse certificate: %v", err.Error())
    }

    opts := x509.VerifyOptions{
        DNSName: name,
        Roots:   roots,
    }

    if _, err := cert.Verify(opts); err != nil {
        return fmt.Errorf("failed to verify certificate: %v", err.Error())
    }

    return nil
}

DISCLAIMER: I reorganized it as a function and removed the panics for error handling. The code is otherwise unchanged from the example in the official documentation.
