Depending on the content of a cert, it seems that OpenSSL will prioritize the root cert over the context returned by SNICallback. This behavior is unexpected. This PR adds a test that demonstrates the behavior. Ideally there is a fix, or a explanation for this behavior we can add to the docs. Fixes: nodejs#54235 PR-URL: nodejs#54251

There was a problem hiding this comment.
This is an error in the test. This line should read context: tls.createSecureContext(root) instead.
Currently, it doesn't affect the test result because the SNI callback will return an undefined context, causing it to use the default context which coincidentally mirrors the one created here.

This PR contains a new test that demonstrates the issue I outlined in #54235
I really don't think there is anything wrong with Node.js - it feels to me like an OpenSSL thing. Most likely not a bug either, but an intended behavior where certain certificates are prioritized over others.
