Would it be possible to convert the cert to a byte string or an instance of asn1crypto.x509.Certificate please?

Hi, the script is useful, but it's possible put these values: ('damjan.softver.org.mk', 443), ('expired.badssl.com', 443), ('wrong.host.badssl.com', 443), ('ca.ocsr.nl', 443), ('faß.de', 443), ('самодеј.мкд', 443), inside a text file? I mean exist an elegant way to read lines of file into list?

you can change HOSTS into this:

HOSTS = []

for line in hosts_file:
host, port = line.strip().split(':')
HOSTS.append((host, int(port)))

cert.has_expired() doesn't work for this version. Is there a workaround?
Error
'cryptography.hazmat.bindings._rust.x509.Certificat' object has no attribute 'has_expired'

cert.has_expired() doesn't work for this version.

and what is "this" version !?!

Is there a workaround?

install "another" version?!
