Recaptcha Error: I/O Exception: Name in certificate does not match host name

So I'm trying to get ReCaptcha to work on ColdFusion (full source code below). I tried using both get/post and I get the same error. 

I/O Exception: Name in certificate `google.com' does not match host name `www.google.com'

CFHTTP Error

I converted my code to PHP (full source code below) and it works fine. The only difference is that the PHP code is using get method only.

Any ideas what I could be doing wrong? Thanks for the help.

Coldfusion code:

<cfif StructKeyExists(Form, "submit")>
    <cfset googleurl = "https://www.google.com/recaptcha/api/siteverify" />
    <cfset recaptchasecret = "secret-key-here" />
    <cfset recaptcha = FORM["g-recaptcha-response"] >
    <cfset remoteip = CGI["remote_addr"] />

    <!---post method--->
    <!---<cfhttp url="#googleurl#" method="post" resolveURL="yes">
        <cfhttpparam type="formfield" name="secret" value="#recaptchasecret#" />
        <cfhttpparam type="formfield" name="response" value="#recaptcha]#" />
        <cfhttpparam type="formfield" name="remoteip" value="#remoteip#" />
    </cfhttp>--->

    <!---get method--->
    <cfhttp url="#googleurl#?secret=#recaptchasecret#&response=#recaptcha#&remoteip=#remoteip#" method=get/>

    <cfdump var="#cfhttp#"><hr>
    <cfabort>
</cfif>

PHP code:

<?php
    if ($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] == 'POST') {
        var_dump($_POST);

        $googleurl = "https://www.google.com/recaptcha/api/siteverify";
        $secretKey = "secret-key-here";
        $captcha=$_POST['g-recaptcha-response'];
        $ip = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];

        $response=file_get_contents($googleurl."?secret=".$secretKey."&response=".$captcha."&remoteip=".$ip);

        $responseKeys = json_decode($response,true);

        var_dump($responseKeys);
    }
?>

Solution

  • It's a SSL issue - java is not able to connect to "www.google.com" properly. As a temporary workaround, use <cfset googleurl = "https://google.com/recaptcha/api/siteverify" />. But definitely update java's cert store as well.
