描述

Hi,

is there a way to do mutual TLS authentication between the client and grpc-gateway? I'd like to check if the client's public key is in a list or the certificate is signed by a specific CA and copy the client's name or the certificate's common name to grpc metadata. Sounds like a use case for some middleware, right?

Best, Malte

研究方向
First, review existing grpc gateway examples for authentication. Then, examine grpc go's mTLS support and how to plug middleware into grpc gateway. Finally, create a simple example showing client certificate validation and extraction of CN to gRPC metadata.
