<p>I am using outboundTrafficPolicy.mode ALLOW_ANY global option in Istio but any HTTPS requests are failing with a server certificate error:</p>
<pre><code>* ALPN, server accepted to use h2
* Server certificate:
*  subject: CN=*.execute-api.&lt;my-region&gt;.amazonaws.com
*  start date: Jul 22 00:00:00 2021 GMT
*  expire date: Aug 20 23:59:59 2022 GMT
*  subjectAltName does not match www.google.com
* SSL: no alternative certificate subject name matches target host name 'www.google.com'
* Closing connection 0
* TLSv1.2 (OUT), TLS alert, close notify (256):
curl: (60) SSL: no alternative certificate subject name matches target host name 'www.google.com'
More details here: https://curl.se/docs/sslcerts.html
</code></pre>
<p>Shouldn't it bypass all outbound traffic HTTP or HTTPS? Is there another configuration I'm missing here?</p>
<p>PS: I am using Istio with ingress-nginx with the <code>traffic.sidecar.istio.io/includeInboundPorts: &quot;&quot;</code> annotation, which bypasses envoy in the cluster's entrance. The test was made in another pod inside the service mesh.</p>
<p><strong>Istio configuration</strong>: istioctl install --set profile=minimal --set meshConfig.outboundTrafficPolicy.mode=ALLOW_ANY --set meshConfig.enableTracing=true --set revision=canary</p>
<p><strong>Ingress-Nginx configuration</strong>:</p>

<p>The problem was caused by what probably is a bug on Istio: services on the Kubernetes cluster that had 443 ports (https) and didn't contain a port name as &quot;https&quot; seemed to be getting in the way of external https requests.
To solve the issue I just identified these services using the <code>istioctl proxy-config routes &lt;my-pod&gt; --name 443 -o json</code> command and added the &quot;https&quot; port name.
I also deleted a ServiceEntry from a previous Istio version that was also impacting routing.</p>
