- * The `SSL_CERT_PATH` and `SSL_CERT_URI` environment variables are introduced.
-   `SSL_CERT_URI` can be used to specify a URI for a root certificate store. The
-   `SSL_CERT_PATH` environment variable specifies a delimiter-separated list of
-   paths which are searched for root certificates.
-
-   The existing `SSL_CERT_DIR` environment variable is deprecated.
-   `SSL_CERT_DIR` was previously used to specify either a delimiter-separated
-   list of paths or an URI, which is ambiguous. Setting `SSL_CERT_PATH` causes
-   `SSL_CERT_DIR` to be ignored for the purposes of determining root certificate
-   directories, and setting `SSL_CERT_URI` causes `SSL_CERT_DIR` to be ignored
-   for the purposes of determining root certificate stores.

-   *Hugo Landau*
-
  * Support for loading root certificates from the Windows certificate store
    has been added. The support is in the form of a store which recognises the
-   URI string of `org.openssl.winstore://`. This store is enabled by default and
-   can be disabled using the new compile-time option `no-winstore`.
+   URI string of `org.openssl.winstore://`. This URI scheme currently takes no
+   arguments. This store is built by default and can be disabled using the new
+   compile-time option `no-winstore`. This store is not currently used by
+   default and must be loaded explicitly using the above store URI. It is
+   expected to be loaded by default in the next minor release of OpenSSL.

-=head1 NOTES
-
-X509_get_default_cert_uri(), X509_get_default_cert_uri_env() and
-X509_get_default_cert_path_env() were introduced in OpenSSL 3.2. Prior to this
-release, store URIs were expressed via the environment variable returned by
-X509_get_default_cert_dir_env(); this environment variable could be used to
-specify either a list of directories or a store URI. This creates an ambiguity
-in which the environment variable returned by X509_get_default_cert_dir_env() is
-interpreted both as a list of directories and as a store URI.
-
-This usage and the environment variable returned by
-X509_get_default_cert_dir_env() are now deprecated; to specify a store URI, use
-the environment variable returned by X509_get_default_cert_uri_env(), and to
-specify a list of directories, use the environment variable returned by
-X509_get_default_cert_path_env().

+X509_get_default_cert_dir_env() returns the environment variable name which is
+recommended to specify a nondefault value to be used instead of the value
+returned by X509_get_default_cert_dir(). The value specified by this environment
+variable can also be a store URI (but see BUGS below).
+
+=head1 BUGS
+
+By default (for example, when L<X509_STORE_set_default_paths(3)> is used), the
+environment variable name returned by X509_get_default_cert_dir_env() is
+interpreted both as a delimiter-separated list of paths, and as a store URI by
+default. This is ambiguous. For example, specifying a value of
+B<"file:///etc/certs"> would cause instantiation of the "file" store provided as
+part of the default provider, but would also cause an L<X509_LOOKUP_hash_dir(3)>
+instance to look for certificates in the directory B<"file"> (relative to the
+current working directory) and the directory B<"///etc/certs">. This can be
+avoided by avoiding use of the environment variable mechanism and using other
+methods to construct X509_LOOKUP instances.
