AFNetworking Certificate Pinning UIWebView

I'm using AFNetworking UIWebView category and I was wondering if there is any way to load a url with certificate pinning check.

Best Regards, fnxpt

UIWebView does not expose any direct API to that, but it can still be implemented using NSURLProtocol, which gives you the ability to validate the certificate of all outgoing network requests. It does take a lot of work though, and a better solution is to use WKWebView, which provides an explicit way of doing pinning via the WKNavigationDelegate's webView:didReceiveAuthenticationChallenge:completionHandler:.

There are more details in the "Pinning in Webviews" section of this article: https://datatheorem.github.io/TrustKit/getting-started.html and it's also a library for implement public key pinning in iOS Apps.
