  operating systems (most widely: Windows) this results in a denial of service when the affected
  process hangs. Policy processing being enabled on a publicly facing server is not considered to
  be a common setup.

  Policy processing is enabled by passing the '-policy' argument to the command line utilities or
  by calling either 'X509_VERIFY_PARAM_add0_policy()' or 'X509_VERIFY_PARAM_set1_policies()'
