…_hostname with CERT_NONE (pythonGH-155509) With PROTOCOL_TLS_CLIENT, which became the default protocol in 3.10, this is an error. With an explicitly specified legacy protocol it used to succeed, silently raising verify_mode to CERT_REQUIRED and ignoring the requested CERT_NONE. No caller of ssl._create_stdlib_context() in the standard library passes check_hostname, so no public API reaches it.

With PROTOCOL_TLS_CLIENT, which became the default protocol in 3.10, this is
an error. With an explicitly specified legacy protocol it used to succeed,
silently raising verify_mode to CERT_REQUIRED and ignoring the requested
CERT_NONE.
No caller of ssl._create_stdlib_context() in the standard library passes
check_hostname, so no public API reaches it.
