Connecting to Cast devices failed with: Connection error: invalid peer certificate: Other(OtherError(UnsupportedCertVersion)) Many Cast devices (notably AV receivers with Chromecast built-in) serve a self-signed X.509 version 1 certificate on port 8009. rust_cast 0.21's NoCertificateVerification verifier accepts any certificate in verify_server_cert, but its signature checks delegate to rustls helpers that parse the certificate with webpki, which only supports version 3 certificates. The handshake therefore aborts for v1 device certificates; this affects every rustls-based rust_cast release (0.19+) and only devices happening to serve v3 certificates can connect. Vendors rust_cast 0.21.0 under crates/vendor with a minimal patch: the verifier's verify_tls12_signature/verify_tls13_signature now assert validity, matching the verifier's no-validation contract and the rustls danger verifier examples. Wired up via [patch.crates-io]; see crates/vendor/rust_cast/QBZ_PATCH.md for the full analysis and how to drop the patch once upstream releases the fix. Verified against a real device serving a v1 certificate (TLS 1.2, ECDHE-RSA-CHACHA20-POLY1305): handshake, receiver channel and heartbeat now establish; unpatched fails at the first channel write. cargo check/test -p qbz-cast pass (13 tests).
