=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
||||
|
||||
The B<CA.pl> script is a perl script that supplies the relevant command line
|
||||
arguments to the B<openssl> command for some common certificate operations.
|
||||
It is intended to simplify the process of certificate creation and management
|
||||
by the use of some simple options.
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 COMMAND OPTIONS
|
||||
|
||||
=over 4
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<?>, B<-h>, B<-help>
|
||||
|
||||
prints a usage message.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-newcert>
|
||||
|
||||
creates a new self signed certificate. The private key is written to the file
|
||||
"newkey.pem" and the request written to the file "newreq.pem".
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-newreq>
|
||||
|
||||
creates a new certificate request. The private key is written to the file
|
||||
"newkey.pem" and the request written to the file "newreq.pem".
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-newreq-nodes>
|
||||
|
||||
is like B<-newreq> except that the private key will not be encrypted.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-newca>
|
||||
|
||||
creates a new CA hierarchy for use with the B<ca> program (or the B<-signcert>
|
||||
and B<-xsign> options). The user is prompted to enter the filename of the CA
|
||||
certificates (which should also contain the private key) or by hitting ENTER
|
||||
details of the CA will be prompted for. The relevant files and directories
|
||||
are created in a directory called "demoCA" in the current directory.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-pkcs12>
|
||||
|
||||
create a PKCS#12 file containing the user certificate, private key and CA
|
||||
certificate. It expects the user certificate and private key to be in the
|
||||
file "newcert.pem" and the CA certificate to be in the file demoCA/cacert.pem,
|
||||
it creates a file "newcert.p12". This command can thus be called after the
|
||||
B<-sign> option. The PKCS#12 file can be imported directly into a browser.
|
||||
If there is an additional argument on the command line it will be used as the
|
||||
"friendly name" for the certificate (which is typically displayed in the browser
|
||||
list box), otherwise the name "My Certificate" is used.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-sign>, B<-signreq>, B<-xsign>
|
||||
|
||||
calls the B<ca> program to sign a certificate request. It expects the request
|
||||
to be in the file "newreq.pem". The new certificate is written to the file
|
||||
"newcert.pem" except in the case of the B<-xsign> option when it is written
|
||||
to standard output.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-signCA>
|
||||
|
||||
this option is the same as the B<-signreq> option except it uses the configuration
|
||||
file section B<v3_ca> and so makes the signed request a valid CA certificate. This
|
||||
is useful when creating intermediate CA from a root CA.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-signcert>
|
||||
|
||||
this option is the same as B<-sign> except it expects a self signed certificate
|
||||
to be present in the file "newreq.pem".
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-verify>
|
||||
|
||||
verifies certificates against the CA certificate for "demoCA". If no certificates
|
||||
are specified on the command line it tries to verify the file "newcert.pem".
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<files>
|
||||
|
||||
one or more optional certificate file names for use with the B<-verify> command.
|
||||
|
||||
=back
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 EXAMPLES
|
||||
|
||||
Create a CA hierarchy:
|
||||
|
||||
CA.pl -newca
|
||||
|
||||
Complete certificate creation example: create a CA, create a request, sign
|
||||
the request and finally create a PKCS#12 file containing it.
|
||||
|
||||
CA.pl -newca
|
||||
CA.pl -newreq
|
||||
CA.pl -signreq
|
||||
CA.pl -pkcs12 "My Test Certificate"
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 DSA CERTIFICATES
|
||||
|
||||
Although the B<CA.pl> creates RSA CAs and requests it is still possible to
|
||||
use it with DSA certificates and requests using the L<req(1)|req(1)> command
|
||||
directly. The following example shows the steps that would typically be taken.
|
||||
|
||||
Create some DSA parameters:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl dsaparam -out dsap.pem 1024
|
||||
|
||||
Create a DSA CA certificate and private key:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl req -x509 -newkey dsa:dsap.pem -keyout cacert.pem -out cacert.pem
|
||||
|
||||
Create the CA directories and files:
|
||||
|
||||
CA.pl -newca
|
||||
|
||||
enter cacert.pem when prompted for the CA file name.
|
||||
|
||||
Create a DSA certificate request and private key (a different set of parameters
|
||||
can optionally be created first):
|
||||
|
||||
openssl req -out newreq.pem -newkey dsa:dsap.pem
|
||||
|
||||
Sign the request:
|
||||
|
||||
CA.pl -signreq
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 NOTES
|
||||
|
||||
Most of the filenames mentioned can be modified by editing the B<CA.pl> script.
|
||||
|
||||
If the demoCA directory already exists then the B<-newca> command will not
|
||||
overwrite it and will do nothing. This can happen if a previous call using
|
||||
the B<-newca> option terminated abnormally. To get the correct behaviour
|
||||
delete the demoCA directory if it already exists.
|
||||
|
||||
Under some environments it may not be possible to run the B<CA.pl> script
|
||||
directly (for example Win32) and the default configuration file location may
|
||||
be wrong. In this case the command:
|
||||
|
||||
perl -S CA.pl
|
||||
|
||||
can be used and the B<OPENSSL_CONF> environment variable changed to point to
|
||||
the correct path of the configuration file "openssl.cnf".
|
||||
|
||||
The script is intended as a simple front end for the B<openssl> program for use
|
||||
by a beginner. Its behaviour isn't always what is wanted. For more control over the
|
||||
behaviour of the certificate commands call the B<openssl> command directly.
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
|
||||
|
||||
The variable B<OPENSSL_CONF> if defined allows an alternative configuration
|
||||
file location to be specified, it should contain the full path to the
|
||||
configuration file, not just its directory.

=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
||||
|
||||
The B<asn1parse> command is a diagnostic utility that can parse ASN.1
|
||||
structures. It can also be used to extract data from ASN.1 formatted data.
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 OPTIONS
|
||||
|
||||
=over 4
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-inform> B<DER|PEM>
|
||||
|
||||
the input format. B<DER> is binary format and B<PEM> (the default) is base64
|
||||
encoded.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-in filename>
|
||||
|
||||
the input file, default is standard input
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-out filename>
|
||||
|
||||
output file to place the DER encoded data into. If this
|
||||
option is not present then no data will be output. This is most useful when
|
||||
combined with the B<-strparse> option.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-noout>
|
||||
|
||||
don't output the parsed version of the input file.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-offset number>
|
||||
|
||||
starting offset to begin parsing, default is start of file.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-length number>
|
||||
|
||||
number of bytes to parse, default is until end of file.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-i>
|
||||
|
||||
indents the output according to the "depth" of the structures.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-oid filename>
|
||||
|
||||
a file containing additional OBJECT IDENTIFIERs (OIDs). The format of this
|
||||
file is described in the NOTES section below.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-dump>
|
||||
|
||||
dump unknown data in hex format.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-dlimit num>
|
||||
|
||||
like B<-dump>, but only the first B<num> bytes are output.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-strparse offset>
|
||||
|
||||
parse the contents octets of the ASN.1 object starting at B<offset>. This
|
||||
option can be used multiple times to "drill down" into a nested structure.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-genstr string>, B<-genconf file>
|
||||
|
||||
generate encoded data based on B<string>, B<file> or both using
|
||||
L<ASN1_generate_nconf(3)|ASN1_generate_nconf(3)> format. If B<file> only is
|
||||
present then the string is obtained from the default section using the name
|
||||
B<asn1>. The encoded data is passed through the ASN1 parser and printed out as
|
||||
though it came from a file, the contents can thus be examined and written to a
|
||||
file using the B<out> option.
|
||||
|
||||
=back
|
||||
|
||||
=head2 OUTPUT
|
||||
|
||||
The output will typically contain lines like this:
|
||||
|
||||
0:d=0 hl=4 l= 681 cons: SEQUENCE
|
||||
|
||||
.....
|
||||
|
||||
229:d=3 hl=3 l= 141 prim: BIT STRING
|
||||
373:d=2 hl=3 l= 162 cons: cont [ 3 ]
|
||||
376:d=3 hl=3 l= 159 cons: SEQUENCE
|
||||
379:d=4 hl=2 l= 29 cons: SEQUENCE
|
||||
381:d=5 hl=2 l= 3 prim: OBJECT :X509v3 Subject Key Identifier
|
||||
386:d=5 hl=2 l= 22 prim: OCTET STRING
|
||||
410:d=4 hl=2 l= 112 cons: SEQUENCE
|
||||
412:d=5 hl=2 l= 3 prim: OBJECT :X509v3 Authority Key Identifier
|
||||
417:d=5 hl=2 l= 105 prim: OCTET STRING
|
||||
524:d=4 hl=2 l= 12 cons: SEQUENCE
|
||||
|
||||
.....
|
||||
|
||||
This example is part of a self signed certificate. Each line starts with the
|
||||
offset in decimal. B<d=XX> specifies the current depth. The depth is increased
|
||||
within the scope of any SET or SEQUENCE. B<hl=XX> gives the header length
|
||||
(tag and length octets) of the current type. B<l=XX> gives the length of
|
||||
the contents octets.
|
||||
|
||||
The B<-i> option can be used to make the output more readable.
|
||||
|
||||
Some knowledge of the ASN.1 structure is needed to interpret the output.
|
||||
|
||||
In this example the BIT STRING at offset 229 is the certificate public key.
|
||||
The contents octets of this will contain the public key information. This can
|
||||
be examined using the option B<-strparse 229> to yield:
|
||||
|
||||
0:d=0 hl=3 l= 137 cons: SEQUENCE
|
||||
3:d=1 hl=3 l= 129 prim: INTEGER :E5D21E1F5C8D208EA7A2166C7FAF9F6BDF2059669C60876DDB70840F1A5AAFA59699FE471F379F1DD6A487E7D5409AB6A88D4A9746E24B91D8CF55DB3521015460C8EDE44EE8A4189F7A7BE77D6CD3A9AF2696F486855CF58BF0EDF2B4068058C7A947F52548DDF7E15E96B385F86422BEA9064A3EE9E1158A56E4A6F47E5897
|
||||
135:d=1 hl=2 l= 3 prim: INTEGER :010001
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 NOTES
|
||||
|
||||
If an OID is not part of OpenSSL's internal table it will be represented in
|
||||
numerical form (for example 1.2.3.4). The file passed to the B<-oid> option
|
||||
allows additional OIDs to be included. Each line consists of three columns,
|
||||
the first column is the OID in numerical format and should be followed by white
|
||||
space. The second column is the "short name" which is a single word followed
|
||||
by white space. The final column is the rest of the line and is the
|
||||
"long name". B<asn1parse> displays the long name. Example:
|
||||
|
||||
C<1.2.3.4 shortName A long name>
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 EXAMPLES
|
||||
|
||||
Parse a file:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl asn1parse -in file.pem
|
||||
|
||||
Parse a DER file:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl asn1parse -inform DER -in file.der
|
||||
|
||||
Generate a simple UTF8String:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl asn1parse -genstr 'UTF8:Hello World'
|
||||
|
||||
Generate and write out a UTF8String, don't print parsed output:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl asn1parse -genstr 'UTF8:Hello World' -noout -out utf8.der
|
||||
|
||||
Generate using a config file:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl asn1parse -genconf asn1.cnf -noout -out asn1.der
|
||||
|
||||
Example config file:
|
||||
|
||||
asn1=SEQUENCE:seq_sect
|
||||
|
||||
[seq_sect]
|
||||
|
||||
field1=BOOL:TRUE
|
||||
field2=EXP:0, UTF8:some random string
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 BUGS
|
||||
|
||||
There should be options to change the format of output lines. The output of some
|
||||
ASN.1 types is not well handled (if at all).

=head1 NAME
|
||||
|
||||
c_rehash - Create symbolic links to files named by the hash values
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 SYNOPSIS
|
||||
|
||||
B<c_rehash>
|
||||
B<[-old]>
|
||||
B<[-h]>
|
||||
B<[-n]>
|
||||
B<[-v]>
|
||||
[ I<directory>...]
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
||||
|
||||
B<c_rehash> scans directories and calculates a hash value of each
|
||||
C<.pem>, C<.crt>, C<.cer>, or C<.crl>
|
||||
file in the specified directory list and creates symbolic links
|
||||
for each file, where the name of the link is the hash value.
|
||||
(If the platform does not support symbolic links, a copy is made.)
|
||||
This utility is useful as many programs that use OpenSSL require
|
||||
directories to be set up like this in order to find certificates.
|
||||
|
||||
If any directories are named on the command line, then those are
|
||||
processed in turn. If not, then the B<SSL_CERT_DIR> environment variable
|
||||
is consulted; this shold be a colon-separated list of directories,
|
||||
like the Unix B<PATH> variable.
|
||||
If that is not set then the default directory (installation-specific
|
||||
but often B</usr/local/ssl/certs>) is processed.
|
||||
|
||||
In order for a directory to be processed, the user must have write
|
||||
permissions on that directory, otherwise it will be skipped.
|
||||
The links created are of the form C<HHHHHHHH.D>, where each B<H>
|
||||
is a hexadecimal character and B<D> is a single decimal digit.
|
||||
When processing a directory, B<c_rehash> will first remove all links
|
||||
that have a name in that syntax. If you have links in that format
|
||||
used for other purposes, they will be removed.
|
||||
To skip the removal step, use the B<-n> flag.
|
||||
Hashes for CRL's look similar except the letter B<r> appears after
|
||||
the period, like this: C<HHHHHHHH.rD>.
|
||||
|
||||
Multiple objects may have the same hash; they will be indicated by
|
||||
incrementing the B<D> value. Duplicates are found by comparing the
|
||||
full SHA-1 fingerprint. A warning will be displayed if a duplicate
|
||||
is found.
|
||||
|
||||
A warning will also be displayed if there are files that
|
||||
cannot be parsed as either a certificate or a CRL.
|
||||
|
||||
The program uses the B<openssl> program to compute the hashes and
|
||||
fingerprints. If not found in the user's B<PATH>, then set the
|
||||
B<OPENSSL> environment variable to the full pathname.
|
||||
Any program can be used, it will be invoked as follows for either
|
||||
a certificate or CRL:
|
||||
|
||||
$OPENSSL x509 -hash -fingerprint -noout -in FILENAME
|
||||
$OPENSSL crl -hash -fingerprint -noout -in FILENAME
|
||||
|
||||
where B<FILENAME> is the filename. It must output the hash of the
|
||||
file on the first line, and the fingerprint on the second,
|
||||
optionally prefixed with some text and an equals sign.
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 OPTIONS
|
||||
|
||||
=over 4
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-old>
|
||||
|
||||
Use old-style hashing (MD5, as opposed to SHA-1) for generating
|
||||
links for releases before 1.0.0. Note that current versions will
|
||||
not use the old style.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-h>
|
||||
|
||||
Display a brief usage message.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-n>
|
||||
|
||||
Do not remove existing links.
|
||||
This is needed when keeping new and old-style links in the same directory.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-v>
|
||||
|
||||
Print messages about old links removed and new links created.
|
||||
By default, B<c_rehash> only lists each directory as it is processed.

=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
||||
|
||||
The B<ca> command is a minimal CA application. It can be used
|
||||
to sign certificate requests in a variety of forms and generate
|
||||
CRLs it also maintains a text database of issued certificates
|
||||
and their status.
|
||||
|
||||
The options descriptions will be divided into each purpose.
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 CA OPTIONS
|
||||
|
||||
=over 4
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-config filename>
|
||||
|
||||
specifies the configuration file to use.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-name section>
|
||||
|
||||
specifies the configuration file section to use (overrides
|
||||
B<default_ca> in the B<ca> section).
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-in filename>
|
||||
|
||||
an input filename containing a single certificate request to be
|
||||
signed by the CA.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-ss_cert filename>
|
||||
|
||||
a single self signed certificate to be signed by the CA.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-spkac filename>
|
||||
|
||||
a file containing a single Netscape signed public key and challenge
|
||||
and additional field values to be signed by the CA. See the B<SPKAC FORMAT>
|
||||
section for information on the required input and output format.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-infiles>
|
||||
|
||||
if present this should be the last option, all subsequent arguments
|
||||
are assumed to the the names of files containing certificate requests.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-out filename>
|
||||
|
||||
the output file to output certificates to. The default is standard
|
||||
output. The certificate details will also be printed out to this
|
||||
file in PEM format (except that B<-spkac> outputs DER format).
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-outdir directory>
|
||||
|
||||
the directory to output certificates to. The certificate will be
|
||||
written to a filename consisting of the serial number in hex with
|
||||
".pem" appended.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-cert>
|
||||
|
||||
the CA certificate file.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-keyfile filename>
|
||||
|
||||
the private key to sign requests with.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-keyform PEM|DER>
|
||||
|
||||
the format of the data in the private key file.
|
||||
The default is PEM.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-key password>
|
||||
|
||||
the password used to encrypt the private key. Since on some
|
||||
systems the command line arguments are visible (e.g. Unix with
|
||||
the 'ps' utility) this option should be used with caution.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-selfsign>
|
||||
|
||||
indicates the issued certificates are to be signed with the key
|
||||
the certificate requests were signed with (given with B<-keyfile>).
|
||||
Cerificate requests signed with a different key are ignored. If
|
||||
B<-spkac>, B<-ss_cert> or B<-gencrl> are given, B<-selfsign> is
|
||||
ignored.
|
||||
|
||||
A consequence of using B<-selfsign> is that the self-signed
|
||||
certificate appears among the entries in the certificate database
|
||||
(see the configuration option B<database>), and uses the same
|
||||
serial number counter as all other certificates sign with the
|
||||
self-signed certificate.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-passin arg>
|
||||
|
||||
the key password source. For more information about the format of B<arg>
|
||||
see the B<PASS PHRASE ARGUMENTS> section in L<openssl(1)|openssl(1)>.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-verbose>
|
||||
|
||||
this prints extra details about the operations being performed.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-notext>
|
||||
|
||||
don't output the text form of a certificate to the output file.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-startdate date>
|
||||
|
||||
this allows the start date to be explicitly set. The format of the
|
||||
date is YYMMDDHHMMSSZ (the same as an ASN1 UTCTime structure).
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-enddate date>
|
||||
|
||||
this allows the expiry date to be explicitly set. The format of the
|
||||
date is YYMMDDHHMMSSZ (the same as an ASN1 UTCTime structure).
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-days arg>
|
||||
|
||||
the number of days to certify the certificate for.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-md alg>
|
||||
|
||||
the message digest to use. Possible values include md5, sha1 and mdc2.
|
||||
This option also applies to CRLs.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-policy arg>
|
||||
|
||||
this option defines the CA "policy" to use. This is a section in
|
||||
the configuration file which decides which fields should be mandatory
|
||||
or match the CA certificate. Check out the B<POLICY FORMAT> section
|
||||
for more information.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-msie_hack>
|
||||
|
||||
this is a legacy option to make B<ca> work with very old versions of
|
||||
the IE certificate enrollment control "certenr3". It used UniversalStrings
|
||||
for almost everything. Since the old control has various security bugs
|
||||
its use is strongly discouraged. The newer control "Xenroll" does not
|
||||
need this option.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-preserveDN>
|
||||
|
||||
Normally the DN order of a certificate is the same as the order of the
|
||||
fields in the relevant policy section. When this option is set the order
|
||||
is the same as the request. This is largely for compatibility with the
|
||||
older IE enrollment control which would only accept certificates if their
|
||||
DNs match the order of the request. This is not needed for Xenroll.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-noemailDN>
|
||||
|
||||
The DN of a certificate can contain the EMAIL field if present in the
|
||||
request DN, however it is good policy just having the e-mail set into
|
||||
the altName extension of the certificate. When this option is set the
|
||||
EMAIL field is removed from the certificate' subject and set only in
|
||||
the, eventually present, extensions. The B<email_in_dn> keyword can be
|
||||
used in the configuration file to enable this behaviour.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-batch>
|
||||
|
||||
this sets the batch mode. In this mode no questions will be asked
|
||||
and all certificates will be certified automatically.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-extensions section>
|
||||
|
||||
the section of the configuration file containing certificate extensions
|
||||
to be added when a certificate is issued (defaults to B<x509_extensions>
|
||||
unless the B<-extfile> option is used). If no extension section is
|
||||
present then, a V1 certificate is created. If the extension section
|
||||
is present (even if it is empty), then a V3 certificate is created. See the:w
|
||||
L<x509v3_config(5)|x509v3_config(5)> manual page for details of the
|
||||
extension section format.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-extfile file>
|
||||
|
||||
an additional configuration file to read certificate extensions from
|
||||
(using the default section unless the B<-extensions> option is also
|
||||
used).
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-engine id>
|
||||
|
||||
specifying an engine (by its unique B<id> string) will cause B<ca>
|
||||
to attempt to obtain a functional reference to the specified engine,
|
||||
thus initialising it if needed. The engine will then be set as the default
|
||||
for all available algorithms.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-subj arg>
|
||||
|
||||
supersedes subject name given in the request.
|
||||
The arg must be formatted as I</type0=value0/type1=value1/type2=...>,
|
||||
characters may be escaped by \ (backslash), no spaces are skipped.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-utf8>
|
||||
|
||||
this option causes field values to be interpreted as UTF8 strings, by
|
||||
default they are interpreted as ASCII. This means that the field
|
||||
values, whether prompted from a terminal or obtained from a
|
||||
configuration file, must be valid UTF8 strings.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-multivalue-rdn>
|
||||
|
||||
this option causes the -subj argument to be interpretedt with full
|
||||
support for multivalued RDNs. Example:
|
||||
|
||||
I</DC=org/DC=OpenSSL/DC=users/UID=123456+CN=John Doe>
|
||||
|
||||
If -multi-rdn is not used then the UID value is I<123456+CN=John Doe>.

||||

|
||||
|
||||
=head1 CRL OPTIONS
|
||||
|
||||
=over 4
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-gencrl>
|
||||
|
||||
this option generates a CRL based on information in the index file.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-crldays num>
|
||||
|
||||
the number of days before the next CRL is due. That is the days from
|
||||
now to place in the CRL nextUpdate field.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-crlhours num>
|
||||
|
||||
the number of hours before the next CRL is due.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-revoke filename>
|
||||
|
||||
a filename containing a certificate to revoke.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-status serial>
|
||||
|
||||
displays the revocation status of the certificate with the specified
|
||||
serial number and exits.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-updatedb>
|
||||
|
||||
Updates the database index to purge expired certificates.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-crl_reason reason>
|
||||
|
||||
revocation reason, where B<reason> is one of: B<unspecified>, B<keyCompromise>,
|
||||
B<CACompromise>, B<affiliationChanged>, B<superseded>, B<cessationOfOperation>,
|
||||
B<certificateHold> or B<removeFromCRL>. The matching of B<reason> is case
|
||||
insensitive. Setting any revocation reason will make the CRL v2.
|
||||
|
||||
In practive B<removeFromCRL> is not particularly useful because it is only used
|
||||
in delta CRLs which are not currently implemented.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-crl_hold instruction>
|
||||
|
||||
This sets the CRL revocation reason code to B<certificateHold> and the hold
|
||||
instruction to B<instruction> which must be an OID. Although any OID can be
|
||||
used only B<holdInstructionNone> (the use of which is discouraged by RFC2459)
|
||||
B<holdInstructionCallIssuer> or B<holdInstructionReject> will normally be used.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-crl_compromise time>
|
||||
|
||||
This sets the revocation reason to B<keyCompromise> and the compromise time to
|
||||
B<time>. B<time> should be in GeneralizedTime format that is B<YYYYMMDDHHMMSSZ>.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-crl_CA_compromise time>
|
||||
|
||||
This is the same as B<crl_compromise> except the revocation reason is set to
|
||||
B<CACompromise>.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-crlexts section>
|
||||
|
||||
the section of the configuration file containing CRL extensions to
|
||||
include. If no CRL extension section is present then a V1 CRL is
|
||||
created, if the CRL extension section is present (even if it is
|
||||
empty) then a V2 CRL is created. The CRL extensions specified are
|
||||
CRL extensions and B<not> CRL entry extensions. It should be noted
|
||||
that some software (for example Netscape) can't handle V2 CRLs. See
|
||||
L<x509v3_config(5)|x509v3_config(5)> manual page for details of the
|
||||
extension section format.
|
||||
|
||||
=back
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 CONFIGURATION FILE OPTIONS
|
||||
|
||||
The section of the configuration file containing options for B<ca>
|
||||
is found as follows: If the B<-name> command line option is used,
|
||||
then it names the section to be used. Otherwise the section to
|
||||
be used must be named in the B<default_ca> option of the B<ca> section
|
||||
of the configuration file (or in the default section of the
|
||||
configuration file). Besides B<default_ca>, the following options are
|
||||
read directly from the B<ca> section:
|
||||
RANDFILE
|
||||
preserve
|
||||
msie_hack
|
||||
With the exception of B<RANDFILE>, this is probably a bug and may
|
||||
change in future releases.
|
||||
|
||||
Many of the configuration file options are identical to command line
|
||||
options. Where the option is present in the configuration file
|
||||
and the command line the command line value is used. Where an
|
||||
option is described as mandatory then it must be present in
|
||||
the configuration file or the command line equivalent (if
|
||||
any) used.
|
||||
|
||||
=over 4
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<oid_file>
|
||||
|
||||
This specifies a file containing additional B<OBJECT IDENTIFIERS>.
|
||||
Each line of the file should consist of the numerical form of the
|
||||
object identifier followed by white space then the short name followed
|
||||
by white space and finally the long name.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<oid_section>
|
||||
|
||||
This specifies a section in the configuration file containing extra
|
||||
object identifiers. Each line should consist of the short name of the
|
||||
object identifier followed by B<=> and the numerical form. The short
|
||||
and long names are the same when this option is used.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<new_certs_dir>
|
||||
|
||||
the same as the B<-outdir> command line option. It specifies
|
||||
the directory where new certificates will be placed. Mandatory.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<certificate>
|
||||
|
||||
the same as B<-cert>. It gives the file containing the CA
|
||||
certificate. Mandatory.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<private_key>
|
||||
|
||||
same as the B<-keyfile> option. The file containing the
|
||||
CA private key. Mandatory.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<RANDFILE>
|
||||
|
||||
a file used to read and write random number seed information, or
|
||||
an EGD socket (see L<RAND_egd(3)|RAND_egd(3)>).
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<default_days>
|
||||
|
||||
the same as the B<-days> option. The number of days to certify
|
||||
a certificate for.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<default_startdate>
|
||||
|
||||
the same as the B<-startdate> option. The start date to certify
|
||||
a certificate for. If not set the current time is used.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<default_enddate>
|
||||
|
||||
the same as the B<-enddate> option. Either this option or
|
||||
B<default_days> (or the command line equivalents) must be
|
||||
present.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<default_crl_hours default_crl_days>
|
||||
|
||||
the same as the B<-crlhours> and the B<-crldays> options. These
|
||||
will only be used if neither command line option is present. At
|
||||
least one of these must be present to generate a CRL.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<default_md>
|
||||
|
||||
the same as the B<-md> option. The message digest to use. Mandatory.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<database>
|
||||
|
||||
the text database file to use. Mandatory. This file must be present
|
||||
though initially it will be empty.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<unique_subject>
|
||||
|
||||
if the value B<yes> is given, the valid certificate entries in the
|
||||
database must have unique subjects. if the value B<no> is given,
|
||||
several valid certificate entries may have the exact same subject.
|
||||
The default value is B<yes>, to be compatible with older (pre 0.9.8)
|
||||
versions of OpenSSL. However, to make CA certificate roll-over easier,
|
||||
it's recommended to use the value B<no>, especially if combined with
|
||||
the B<-selfsign> command line option.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<serial>
|
||||
|
||||
a text file containing the next serial number to use in hex. Mandatory.
|
||||
This file must be present and contain a valid serial number.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<crlnumber>
|
||||
|
||||
a text file containing the next CRL number to use in hex. The crl number
|
||||
will be inserted in the CRLs only if this file exists. If this file is
|
||||
present, it must contain a valid CRL number.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<x509_extensions>
|
||||
|
||||
the same as B<-extensions>.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<crl_extensions>
|
||||
|
||||
the same as B<-crlexts>.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<preserve>
|
||||
|
||||
the same as B<-preserveDN>
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<email_in_dn>
|
||||
|
||||
the same as B<-noemailDN>. If you want the EMAIL field to be removed
|
||||
from the DN of the certificate simply set this to 'no'. If not present
|
||||
the default is to allow for the EMAIL filed in the certificate's DN.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<msie_hack>
|
||||
|
||||
the same as B<-msie_hack>
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<policy>
|
||||
|
||||
the same as B<-policy>. Mandatory. See the B<POLICY FORMAT> section
|
||||
for more information.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<name_opt>, B<cert_opt>
|
||||
|
||||
these options allow the format used to display the certificate details
|
||||
when asking the user to confirm signing. All the options supported by
|
||||
the B<x509> utilities B<-nameopt> and B<-certopt> switches can be used
|
||||
here, except the B<no_signame> and B<no_sigdump> are permanently set
|
||||
and cannot be disabled (this is because the certificate signature cannot
|
||||
be displayed because the certificate has not been signed at this point).
|
||||
|
||||
For convenience the values B<ca_default> are accepted by both to produce
|
||||
a reasonable output.
|
||||
|
||||
If neither option is present the format used in earlier versions of
|
||||
OpenSSL is used. Use of the old format is B<strongly> discouraged because
|
||||
it only displays fields mentioned in the B<policy> section, mishandles
|
||||
multicharacter string types and does not display extensions.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<copy_extensions>
|
||||
|
||||
determines how extensions in certificate requests should be handled.
|
||||
If set to B<none> or this option is not present then extensions are
|
||||
ignored and not copied to the certificate. If set to B<copy> then any
|
||||
extensions present in the request that are not already present are copied
|
||||
to the certificate. If set to B<copyall> then all extensions in the
|
||||
request are copied to the certificate: if the extension is already present
|
||||
in the certificate it is deleted first. See the B<WARNINGS> section before
|
||||
using this option.
|
||||
|
||||
The main use of this option is to allow a certificate request to supply
|
||||
values for certain extensions such as subjectAltName.
|
||||
|
||||
=back
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 POLICY FORMAT
|
||||
|
||||
The policy section consists of a set of variables corresponding to
|
||||
certificate DN fields. If the value is "match" then the field value
|
||||
must match the same field in the CA certificate. If the value is
|
||||
"supplied" then it must be present. If the value is "optional" then
|
||||
it may be present. Any fields not mentioned in the policy section
|
||||
are silently deleted, unless the B<-preserveDN> option is set but
|
||||
this can be regarded more of a quirk than intended behaviour.
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 SPKAC FORMAT
|
||||
|
||||
The input to the B<-spkac> command line option is a Netscape
|
||||
signed public key and challenge. This will usually come from
|
||||
the B<KEYGEN> tag in an HTML form to create a new private key.
|
||||
It is however possible to create SPKACs using the B<spkac> utility.
|
||||
|
||||
The file should contain the variable SPKAC set to the value of
|
||||
the SPKAC and also the required DN components as name value pairs.
|
||||
If you need to include the same component twice then it can be
|
||||
preceded by a number and a '.'.
|
||||
|
||||
When processing SPKAC format, the output is DER if the B<-out>
|
||||
flag is used, but PEM format if sending to stdout or the B<-outdir>
|
||||
flag is used.
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 EXAMPLES
|
||||
|
||||
Note: these examples assume that the B<ca> directory structure is
|
||||
already set up and the relevant files already exist. This usually
|
||||
involves creating a CA certificate and private key with B<req>, a
|
||||
serial number file and an empty index file and placing them in
|
||||
the relevant directories.
|
||||
|
||||
To use the sample configuration file below the directories demoCA,
|
||||
demoCA/private and demoCA/newcerts would be created. The CA
|
||||
certificate would be copied to demoCA/cacert.pem and its private
|
||||
key to demoCA/private/cakey.pem. A file demoCA/serial would be
|
||||
created containing for example "01" and the empty index file
|
||||
demoCA/index.txt.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Sign a certificate request:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl ca -in req.pem -out newcert.pem
|
||||
|
||||
Sign a certificate request, using CA extensions:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl ca -in req.pem -extensions v3_ca -out newcert.pem
|
||||
|
||||
Generate a CRL
|
||||
|
||||
openssl ca -gencrl -out crl.pem
|
||||
|
||||
Sign several requests:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl ca -infiles req1.pem req2.pem req3.pem
|
||||
|
||||
Certify a Netscape SPKAC:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl ca -spkac spkac.txt

=head1 FILES
|
||||
|
||||
Note: the location of all files can change either by compile time options,
|
||||
configuration file entries, environment variables or command line options.
|
||||
The values below reflect the default values.
|
||||
|
||||
/usr/local/ssl/lib/openssl.cnf - master configuration file
|
||||
./demoCA - main CA directory
|
||||
./demoCA/cacert.pem - CA certificate
|
||||
./demoCA/private/cakey.pem - CA private key
|
||||
./demoCA/serial - CA serial number file
|
||||
./demoCA/serial.old - CA serial number backup file
|
||||
./demoCA/index.txt - CA text database file
|
||||
./demoCA/index.txt.old - CA text database backup file
|
||||
./demoCA/certs - certificate output file
|
||||
./demoCA/.rnd - CA random seed information
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
|
||||
|
||||
B<OPENSSL_CONF> reflects the location of master configuration file it can
|
||||
be overridden by the B<-config> command line option.
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 RESTRICTIONS
|
||||
|
||||
The text database index file is a critical part of the process and
|
||||
if corrupted it can be difficult to fix. It is theoretically possible
|
||||
to rebuild the index file from all the issued certificates and a current
|
||||
CRL: however there is no option to do this.
|
||||
|
||||
V2 CRL features like delta CRLs are not currently supported.
|
||||
|
||||
Although several requests can be input and handled at once it is only
|
||||
possible to include one SPKAC or self signed certificate.
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 BUGS
|
||||
|
||||
The use of an in memory text database can cause problems when large
|
||||
numbers of certificates are present because, as the name implies
|
||||
the database has to be kept in memory.
|
||||
|
||||
The B<ca> command really needs rewriting or the required functionality
|
||||
exposed at either a command or interface level so a more friendly utility
|
||||
(perl script or GUI) can handle things properly. The scripts B<CA.sh> and
|
||||
B<CA.pl> help a little but not very much.
|
||||
|
||||
Any fields in a request that are not present in a policy are silently
|
||||
deleted. This does not happen if the B<-preserveDN> option is used. To
|
||||
enforce the absence of the EMAIL field within the DN, as suggested by
|
||||
RFCs, regardless the contents of the request' subject the B<-noemailDN>
|
||||
option can be used. The behaviour should be more friendly and
|
||||
configurable.
|
||||
|
||||
Cancelling some commands by refusing to certify a certificate can
|
||||
create an empty file.
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 WARNINGS
|
||||
|
||||
The B<ca> command is quirky and at times downright unfriendly.
|
||||
|
||||
The B<ca> utility was originally meant as an example of how to do things
|
||||
in a CA. It was not supposed to be used as a full blown CA itself:
|
||||
nevertheless some people are using it for this purpose.
|
||||
|
||||
The B<ca> command is effectively a single user command: no locking is
|
||||
done on the various files and attempts to run more than one B<ca> command
|
||||
on the same database can have unpredictable results.
|
||||
|
||||
The B<copy_extensions> option should be used with caution. If care is
|
||||
not taken then it can be a security risk. For example if a certificate
|
||||
request contains a basicConstraints extension with CA:TRUE and the
|
||||
B<copy_extensions> value is set to B<copyall> and the user does not spot
|
||||
this when the certificate is displayed then this will hand the requestor
|
||||
a valid CA certificate.
|
||||
|
||||
This situation can be avoided by setting B<copy_extensions> to B<copy>
|
||||
and including basicConstraints with CA:FALSE in the configuration file.
|
||||
Then if the request contains a basicConstraints extension it will be
|
||||
ignored.
|
||||
|
||||
It is advisable to also include values for other extensions such
|
||||
as B<keyUsage> to prevent a request supplying its own values.
|
||||
|
||||
Additional restrictions can be placed on the CA certificate itself.
|
||||
For example if the CA certificate has:
|
||||
|
||||
basicConstraints = CA:TRUE, pathlen:0
|
||||
|
||||
then even if a certificate is issued with CA:TRUE it will not be valid.

=head1 NAME
|
||||
|
||||
ciphers - SSL cipher display and cipher list tool.
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 SYNOPSIS
|
||||
|
||||
B<openssl> B<ciphers>
|
||||
[B<-v>]
|
||||
[B<-V>]
|
||||
[B<-ssl2>]
|
||||
[B<-ssl3>]
|
||||
[B<-tls1>]
|
||||
[B<cipherlist>]
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
||||
|
||||
The B<ciphers> command converts textual OpenSSL cipher lists into ordered
|
||||
SSL cipher preference lists. It can be used as a test tool to determine
|
||||
the appropriate cipherlist.
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 COMMAND OPTIONS
|
||||
|
||||
=over 4
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-v>
|
||||
|
||||
Verbose option. List ciphers with a complete description of
|
||||
protocol version (SSLv2 or SSLv3; the latter includes TLS), key exchange,
|
||||
authentication, encryption and mac algorithms used along with any key size
|
||||
restrictions and whether the algorithm is classed as an "export" cipher.
|
||||
Note that without the B<-v> option, ciphers may seem to appear twice
|
||||
in a cipher list; this is when similar ciphers are available for
|
||||
SSL v2 and for SSL v3/TLS v1.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-V>
|
||||
|
||||
Like B<-v>, but include cipher suite codes in output (hex format).
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-ssl3>, B<-tls1>
|
||||
|
||||
This lists ciphers compatible with any of SSLv3, TLSv1, TLSv1.1 or TLSv1.2.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-ssl2>
|
||||
|
||||
Only include SSLv2 ciphers.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-h>, B<-?>
|
||||
|
||||
Print a brief usage message.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<cipherlist>
|
||||
|
||||
A cipher list to convert to a cipher preference list. If it is not included
|
||||
then the default cipher list will be used. The format is described below.
|
||||
|
||||
=back
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 CIPHER LIST FORMAT
|
||||
|
||||
The cipher list consists of one or more I<cipher strings> separated by colons.
|
||||
Commas or spaces are also acceptable separators but colons are normally used.
|
||||
|
||||
The actual cipher string can take several different forms.
|
||||
|
||||
It can consist of a single cipher suite such as B<RC4-SHA>.
|
||||
|
||||
It can represent a list of cipher suites containing a certain algorithm, or
|
||||
cipher suites of a certain type. For example B<SHA1> represents all ciphers
|
||||
suites using the digest algorithm SHA1 and B<SSLv3> represents all SSL v3
|
||||
algorithms.
|
||||
|
||||
Lists of cipher suites can be combined in a single cipher string using the
|
||||
B<+> character. This is used as a logical B<and> operation. For example
|
||||
B<SHA1+DES> represents all cipher suites containing the SHA1 B<and> the DES
|
||||
algorithms.
|
||||
|
||||
Each cipher string can be optionally preceded by the characters B<!>,
|
||||
B<-> or B<+>.
|
||||
|
||||
If B<!> is used then the ciphers are permanently deleted from the list.
|
||||
The ciphers deleted can never reappear in the list even if they are
|
||||
explicitly stated.
|
||||
|
||||
If B<-> is used then the ciphers are deleted from the list, but some or
|
||||
all of the ciphers can be added again by later options.
|
||||
|
||||
If B<+> is used then the ciphers are moved to the end of the list. This
|
||||
option doesn't add any new ciphers it just moves matching existing ones.
|
||||
|
||||
If none of these characters is present then the string is just interpreted
|
||||
as a list of ciphers to be appended to the current preference list. If the
|
||||
list includes any ciphers already present they will be ignored: that is they
|
||||
will not moved to the end of the list.
|
||||
|
||||
Additionally the cipher string B<@STRENGTH> can be used at any point to sort
|
||||
the current cipher list in order of encryption algorithm key length.
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 CIPHER STRINGS
|
||||
|
||||
The following is a list of all permitted cipher strings and their meanings.
|
||||
|
||||
=over 4
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<DEFAULT>
|
||||
|
||||
The default cipher list.
|
||||
This is determined at compile time and is normally
|
||||
B<ALL:!EXPORT:!LOW:!aNULL:!eNULL:!SSLv2>.
|
||||
When used, this must be the first cipherstring specified.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<COMPLEMENTOFDEFAULT>
|
||||
|
||||
the ciphers included in B<ALL>, but not enabled by default. Currently
|
||||
this is B<ADH> and B<AECDH>. Note that this rule does not cover B<eNULL>,
|
||||
which is not included by B<ALL> (use B<COMPLEMENTOFALL> if necessary).
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<ALL>
|
||||
|
||||
all cipher suites except the B<eNULL> ciphers which must be explicitly enabled;
|
||||
as of OpenSSL, the B<ALL> cipher suites are reasonably ordered by default
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<COMPLEMENTOFALL>
|
||||
|
||||
the cipher suites not enabled by B<ALL>, currently being B<eNULL>.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<HIGH>
|
||||
|
||||
"high" encryption cipher suites. This currently means those with key lengths larger
|
||||
than 128 bits, and some cipher suites with 128-bit keys.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<MEDIUM>
|
||||
|
||||
"medium" encryption cipher suites, currently some of those using 128 bit encryption.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<LOW>
|
||||
|
||||
Low strength encryption cipher suites, currently those using 64 or 56 bit
|
||||
encryption algorithms but excluding export cipher suites.
|
||||
As of OpenSSL 1.0.2g, these are disabled in default builds.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<EXP>, B<EXPORT>
|
||||
|
||||
Export strength encryption algorithms. Including 40 and 56 bits algorithms.
|
||||
As of OpenSSL 1.0.2g, these are disabled in default builds.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<EXPORT40>
|
||||
|
||||
40-bit export encryption algorithms
|
||||
As of OpenSSL 1.0.2g, these are disabled in default builds.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<EXPORT56>
|
||||
|
||||
56-bit export encryption algorithms. In OpenSSL 0.9.8c and later the set of
|
||||
56 bit export ciphers is empty unless OpenSSL has been explicitly configured
|
||||
with support for experimental ciphers.
|
||||
As of OpenSSL 1.0.2g, these are disabled in default builds.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<eNULL>, B<NULL>
|
||||
|
||||
The "NULL" ciphers that is those offering no encryption. Because these offer no
|
||||
encryption at all and are a security risk they are not enabled via either the
|
||||
B<DEFAULT> or B<ALL> cipher strings.
|
||||
Be careful when building cipherlists out of lower-level primitives such as
|
||||
B<kRSA> or B<aECDSA> as these do overlap with the B<eNULL> ciphers.
|
||||
When in doubt, include B<!eNULL> in your cipherlist.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<aNULL>
|
||||
|
||||
The cipher suites offering no authentication. This is currently the anonymous
|
||||
DH algorithms and anonymous ECDH algorithms. These cipher suites are vulnerable
|
||||
to a "man in the middle" attack and so their use is normally discouraged.
|
||||
These are excluded from the B<DEFAULT> ciphers, but included in the B<ALL>
|
||||
ciphers.
|
||||
Be careful when building cipherlists out of lower-level primitives such as
|
||||
B<kDHE> or B<AES> as these do overlap with the B<aNULL> ciphers.
|
||||
When in doubt, include B<!aNULL> in your cipherlist.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<kRSA>, B<RSA>

respectively. If used these cipherstrings should appear first in the cipher

consequences required to comply with RFC6460. In particular the supported

signature algorithms is reduced to support only ECDSA and SHA256 or SHA384,

only the elliptic curves P-256 and P-384 can be used and only the two suite B

compliant ciphersuites (ECDHE-ECDSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256 and

ECDHE-ECDSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384) are permissible.

=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
||||
|
||||
The B<cms> command handles S/MIME v3.1 mail. It can encrypt, decrypt, sign and
|
||||
verify, compress and uncompress S/MIME messages.
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 COMMAND OPTIONS
|
||||
|
||||
There are fourteen operation options that set the type of operation to be
|
||||
performed. The meaning of the other options varies according to the operation
|
||||
type.
|
||||
|
||||
=over 4
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-encrypt>
|
||||
|
||||
encrypt mail for the given recipient certificates. Input file is the message
|
||||
to be encrypted. The output file is the encrypted mail in MIME format. The
|
||||
actual CMS type is <B>EnvelopedData<B>.
|
||||
|
||||
Note that no revocation check is done for the recipient cert, so if that
|
||||
key has been compromised, others may be able to decrypt the text.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-decrypt>
|
||||
|
||||
decrypt mail using the supplied certificate and private key. Expects an
|
||||
encrypted mail message in MIME format for the input file. The decrypted mail
|
||||
is written to the output file.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-debug_decrypt>
|
||||
|
||||
this option sets the B<CMS_DEBUG_DECRYPT> flag. This option should be used
|
||||
with caution: see the notes section below.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-sign>
|
||||
|
||||
sign mail using the supplied certificate and private key. Input file is
|
||||
the message to be signed. The signed message in MIME format is written
|
||||
to the output file.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-verify>
|
||||
|
||||
verify signed mail. Expects a signed mail message on input and outputs
|
||||
the signed data. Both clear text and opaque signing is supported.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-cmsout>
|
||||
|
||||
takes an input message and writes out a PEM encoded CMS structure.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-resign>
|
||||
|
||||
resign a message: take an existing message and one or more new signers.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-data_create>
|
||||
|
||||
Create a CMS B<Data> type.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-data_out>
|
||||
|
||||
B<Data> type and output the content.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-digest_create>
|
||||
|
||||
Create a CMS B<DigestedData> type.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-digest_verify>
|
||||
|
||||
Verify a CMS B<DigestedData> type and output the content.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-compress>
|
||||
|
||||
Create a CMS B<CompressedData> type. OpenSSL must be compiled with B<zlib>
|
||||
support for this option to work, otherwise it will output an error.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-uncompress>
|
||||
|
||||
Uncompress a CMS B<CompressedData> type and output the content. OpenSSL must be
|
||||
compiled with B<zlib> support for this option to work, otherwise it will
|
||||
output an error.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-EncryptedData_encrypt>
|
||||
|
||||
Encrypt content using supplied symmetric key and algorithm using a CMS
|
||||
B<EncrytedData> type and output the content.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-sign_receipt>
|
||||
|
||||
Generate and output a signed receipt for the supplied message. The input
|
||||
message B<must> contain a signed receipt request. Functionality is otherwise
|
||||
similar to the B<-sign> operation.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-verify_receipt receipt>
|
||||
|
||||
Verify a signed receipt in filename B<receipt>. The input message B<must>
|
||||
contain the original receipt request. Functionality is otherwise similar
|
||||
to the B<-verify> operation.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-in filename>
|
||||
|
||||
the input message to be encrypted or signed or the message to be decrypted
|
||||
or verified.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-inform SMIME|PEM|DER>
|
||||
|
||||
this specifies the input format for the CMS structure. The default
|
||||
is B<SMIME> which reads an S/MIME format message. B<PEM> and B<DER>
|
||||
format change this to expect PEM and DER format CMS structures
|
||||
instead. This currently only affects the input format of the CMS
|
||||
structure, if no CMS structure is being input (for example with
|
||||
B<-encrypt> or B<-sign>) this option has no effect.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-rctform SMIME|PEM|DER>
|
||||
|
||||
specify the format for a signed receipt for use with the B<-receipt_verify>
|
||||
operation.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-out filename>
|
||||
|
||||
the message text that has been decrypted or verified or the output MIME
|
||||
format message that has been signed or verified.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-outform SMIME|PEM|DER>
|
||||
|
||||
this specifies the output format for the CMS structure. The default
|
||||
is B<SMIME> which writes an S/MIME format message. B<PEM> and B<DER>
|
||||
format change this to write PEM and DER format CMS structures
|
||||
instead. This currently only affects the output format of the CMS
|
||||
structure, if no CMS structure is being output (for example with
|
||||
B<-verify> or B<-decrypt>) this option has no effect.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-stream -indef -noindef>
|
||||
|
||||
the B<-stream> and B<-indef> options are equivalent and enable streaming I/O
|
||||
for encoding operations. This permits single pass processing of data without
|
||||
the need to hold the entire contents in memory, potentially supporting very
|
||||
large files. Streaming is automatically set for S/MIME signing with detached
|
||||
data if the output format is B<SMIME> it is currently off by default for all
|
||||
other operations.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-noindef>
|
||||
|
||||
disable streaming I/O where it would produce and indefinite length constructed
|
||||
encoding. This option currently has no effect. In future streaming will be
|
||||
enabled by default on all relevant operations and this option will disable it.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-content filename>
|
||||
|
||||
This specifies a file containing the detached content, this is only
|
||||
useful with the B<-verify> command. This is only usable if the CMS
|
||||
structure is using the detached signature form where the content is
|
||||
not included. This option will override any content if the input format
|
||||
is S/MIME and it uses the multipart/signed MIME content type.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-text>
|
||||
|
||||
this option adds plain text (text/plain) MIME headers to the supplied
|
||||
message if encrypting or signing. If decrypting or verifying it strips
|
||||
off text headers: if the decrypted or verified message is not of MIME
|
||||
type text/plain then an error occurs.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-noout>
|
||||
|
||||
for the B<-cmsout> operation do not output the parsed CMS structure. This
|
||||
is useful when combined with the B<-print> option or if the syntax of the CMS
|
||||
structure is being checked.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-print>
|
||||
|
||||
for the B<-cmsout> operation print out all fields of the CMS structure. This
|
||||
is mainly useful for testing purposes.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-CAfile file>
|
||||
|
||||
a file containing trusted CA certificates, only used with B<-verify>.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-CApath dir>
|
||||
|
||||
a directory containing trusted CA certificates, only used with
|
||||
B<-verify>. This directory must be a standard certificate directory: that
|
||||
is a hash of each subject name (using B<x509 -hash>) should be linked
|
||||
to each certificate.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-md digest>
|
||||
|
||||
digest algorithm to use when signing or resigning. If not present then the
|
||||
default digest algorithm for the signing key will be used (usually SHA1).
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-[cipher]>
|
||||
|
||||
the encryption algorithm to use. For example triple DES (168 bits) - B<-des3>
|
||||
or 256 bit AES - B<-aes256>. Any standard algorithm name (as used by the
|
||||
EVP_get_cipherbyname() function) can also be used preceded by a dash, for
|
||||
example B<-aes_128_cbc>. See L<B<enc>|enc(1)> for a list of ciphers
|
||||
supported by your version of OpenSSL.
|
||||
|
||||
If not specified triple DES is used. Only used with B<-encrypt> and
|
||||
B<-EncryptedData_create> commands.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-nointern>
|
||||
|
||||
when verifying a message normally certificates (if any) included in
|
||||
the message are searched for the signing certificate. With this option
|
||||
only the certificates specified in the B<-certfile> option are used.
|
||||
The supplied certificates can still be used as untrusted CAs however.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-no_signer_cert_verify>
|
||||
|
||||
do not verify the signers certificate of a signed message.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-nocerts>
|
||||
|
||||
when signing a message the signer's certificate is normally included
|
||||
with this option it is excluded. This will reduce the size of the
|
||||
signed message but the verifier must have a copy of the signers certificate
|
||||
available locally (passed using the B<-certfile> option for example).
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-noattr>
|
||||
|
||||
normally when a message is signed a set of attributes are included which
|
||||
include the signing time and supported symmetric algorithms. With this
|
||||
option they are not included.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-nosmimecap>
|
||||
|
||||
exclude the list of supported algorithms from signed attributes, other options
|
||||
such as signing time and content type are still included.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-binary>
|
||||
|
||||
normally the input message is converted to "canonical" format which is
|
||||
effectively using CR and LF as end of line: as required by the S/MIME
|
||||
specification. When this option is present no translation occurs. This
|
||||
is useful when handling binary data which may not be in MIME format.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-nodetach>
|
||||
|
||||
when signing a message use opaque signing: this form is more resistant
|
||||
to translation by mail relays but it cannot be read by mail agents that
|
||||
do not support S/MIME. Without this option cleartext signing with
|
||||
the MIME type multipart/signed is used.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-certfile file>
|
||||
|
||||
allows additional certificates to be specified. When signing these will
|
||||
be included with the message. When verifying these will be searched for
|
||||
the signers certificates. The certificates should be in PEM format.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-certsout file>
|
||||
|
||||
any certificates contained in the message are written to B<file>.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-signer file>
|
||||
|
||||
a signing certificate when signing or resigning a message, this option can be
|
||||
used multiple times if more than one signer is required. If a message is being
|
||||
verified then the signers certificates will be written to this file if the
|
||||
verification was successful.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-recip file>
|
||||
|
||||
when decrypting a message this specifies the recipients certificate. The
|
||||
certificate must match one of the recipients of the message or an error
|
||||
occurs.
|
||||
|
||||
When encrypting a message this option may be used multiple times to specify
|
||||
each recipient. This form B<must> be used if customised parameters are
|
||||
required (for example to specify RSA-OAEP).
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-keyid>
|
||||
|
||||
use subject key identifier to identify certificates instead of issuer name and
|
||||
serial number. The supplied certificate B<must> include a subject key
|
||||
identifier extension. Supported by B<-sign> and B<-encrypt> options.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-receipt_request_all -receipt_request_first>
|
||||
|
||||
for B<-sign> option include a signed receipt request. Indicate requests should
|
||||
be provided by all receipient or first tier recipients (those mailed directly
|
||||
and not from a mailing list). Ignored it B<-receipt_request_from> is included.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-receipt_request_from emailaddress>
|
||||
|
||||
for B<-sign> option include a signed receipt request. Add an explicit email
|
||||
address where receipts should be supplied.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-receipt_request_to emailaddress>
|
||||
|
||||
Add an explicit email address where signed receipts should be sent to. This
|
||||
option B<must> but supplied if a signed receipt it requested.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-receipt_request_print>
|
||||
|
||||
For the B<-verify> operation print out the contents of any signed receipt
|
||||
requests.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-secretkey key>
|
||||
|
||||
specify symmetric key to use. The key must be supplied in hex format and be
|
||||
consistent with the algorithm used. Supported by the B<-EncryptedData_encrypt>
|
||||
B<-EncrryptedData_decrypt>, B<-encrypt> and B<-decrypt> options. When used
|
||||
with B<-encrypt> or B<-decrypt> the supplied key is used to wrap or unwrap the
|
||||
content encryption key using an AES key in the B<KEKRecipientInfo> type.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-secretkeyid id>
|
||||
|
||||
the key identifier for the supplied symmetric key for B<KEKRecipientInfo> type.
|
||||
This option B<must> be present if the B<-secretkey> option is used with
|
||||
B<-encrypt>. With B<-decrypt> operations the B<id> is used to locate the
|
||||
relevant key if it is not supplied then an attempt is used to decrypt any
|
||||
B<KEKRecipientInfo> structures.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-econtent_type type>
|
||||
|
||||
set the encapsulated content type to B<type> if not supplied the B<Data> type
|
||||
is used. The B<type> argument can be any valid OID name in either text or
|
||||
numerical format.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-inkey file>
|
||||
|
||||
the private key to use when signing or decrypting. This must match the
|
||||
corresponding certificate. If this option is not specified then the
|
||||
private key must be included in the certificate file specified with
|
||||
the B<-recip> or B<-signer> file. When signing this option can be used
|
||||
multiple times to specify successive keys.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-keyopt name:opt>
|
||||
|
||||
for signing and encryption this option can be used multiple times to
|
||||
set customised parameters for the preceding key or certificate. It can
|
||||
currently be used to set RSA-PSS for signing, RSA-OAEP for encryption
|
||||
or to modify default parameters for ECDH.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-passin arg>
|
||||
|
||||
the private key password source. For more information about the format of B<arg>
|
||||
see the B<PASS PHRASE ARGUMENTS> section in L<openssl(1)|openssl(1)>.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-rand file(s)>
|
||||
|
||||
a file or files containing random data used to seed the random number
|
||||
generator, or an EGD socket (see L<RAND_egd(3)|RAND_egd(3)>).
|
||||
Multiple files can be specified separated by a OS-dependent character.
|
||||
The separator is B<;> for MS-Windows, B<,> for OpenVMS, and B<:> for
|
||||
all others.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<cert.pem...>
|
||||
|
||||
one or more certificates of message recipients: used when encrypting
|
||||
a message.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-to, -from, -subject>
|
||||
|
||||
the relevant mail headers. These are included outside the signed
|
||||
portion of a message so they may be included manually. If signing
|
||||
then many S/MIME mail clients check the signers certificate's email
|
||||
address matches that specified in the From: address.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-purpose, -ignore_critical, -issuer_checks, -crl_check, -crl_check_all, -policy_check, -extended_crl, -x509_strict, -policy -check_ss_sig -no_alt_chains>
|
||||
|
||||
Set various certificate chain valiadition option. See the
|
||||
L<B<verify>|verify(1)> manual page for details.

|
||||
|
||||
=head1 NOTES
|
||||
|
||||
The MIME message must be sent without any blank lines between the
|
||||
headers and the output. Some mail programs will automatically add
|
||||
a blank line. Piping the mail directly to sendmail is one way to
|
||||
achieve the correct format.
|
||||
|
||||
The supplied message to be signed or encrypted must include the
|
||||
necessary MIME headers or many S/MIME clients wont display it
|
||||
properly (if at all). You can use the B<-text> option to automatically
|
||||
add plain text headers.
|
||||
|
||||
A "signed and encrypted" message is one where a signed message is
|
||||
then encrypted. This can be produced by encrypting an already signed
|
||||
message: see the examples section.
|
||||
|
||||
This version of the program only allows one signer per message but it
|
||||
will verify multiple signers on received messages. Some S/MIME clients
|
||||
choke if a message contains multiple signers. It is possible to sign
|
||||
messages "in parallel" by signing an already signed message.
|
||||
|
||||
The options B<-encrypt> and B<-decrypt> reflect common usage in S/MIME
|
||||
clients. Strictly speaking these process CMS enveloped data: CMS
|
||||
encrypted data is used for other purposes.
|
||||
|
||||
The B<-resign> option uses an existing message digest when adding a new
|
||||
signer. This means that attributes must be present in at least one existing
|
||||
signer using the same message digest or this operation will fail.
|
||||
|
||||
The B<-stream> and B<-indef> options enable experimental streaming I/O support.
|
||||
As a result the encoding is BER using indefinite length constructed encoding
|
||||
and no longer DER. Streaming is supported for the B<-encrypt> operation and the
|
||||
B<-sign> operation if the content is not detached.
|
||||
|
||||
Streaming is always used for the B<-sign> operation with detached data but
|
||||
since the content is no longer part of the CMS structure the encoding
|
||||
remains DER.
|
||||
|
||||
If the B<-decrypt> option is used without a recipient certificate then an
|
||||
attempt is made to locate the recipient by trying each potential recipient
|
||||
in turn using the supplied private key. To thwart the MMA attack
|
||||
(Bleichenbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 RSA padding) all recipients are
|
||||
tried whether they succeed or not and if no recipients match the message
|
||||
is "decrypted" using a random key which will typically output garbage.
|
||||
The B<-debug_decrypt> option can be used to disable the MMA attack protection
|
||||
and return an error if no recipient can be found: this option should be used
|
||||
with caution. For a fuller description see L<CMS_decrypt(3)|CMS_decrypt(3)>).

=head1 COMPATIBILITY WITH PKCS#7 format.
|
||||
|
||||
The B<smime> utility can only process the older B<PKCS#7> format. The B<cms>
|
||||
utility supports Cryptographic Message Syntax format. Use of some features
|
||||
will result in messages which cannot be processed by applications which only
|
||||
support the older format. These are detailed below.
|
||||
|
||||
The use of the B<-keyid> option with B<-sign> or B<-encrypt>.
|
||||
|
||||
The B<-outform PEM> option uses different headers.
|
||||
|
||||
The B<-compress> option.
|
||||
|
||||
The B<-secretkey> option when used with B<-encrypt>.
|
||||
|
||||
The use of PSS with B<-sign>.
|
||||
|
||||
The use of OAEP or non-RSA keys with B<-encrypt>.
|
||||
|
||||
Additionally the B<-EncryptedData_create> and B<-data_create> type cannot
|
||||
be processed by the older B<smime> command.
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 EXAMPLES
|
||||
|
||||
Create a cleartext signed message:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl cms -sign -in message.txt -text -out mail.msg \
|
||||
-signer mycert.pem
|
||||
|
||||
Create an opaque signed message
|
||||
|
||||
openssl cms -sign -in message.txt -text -out mail.msg -nodetach \
|
||||
-signer mycert.pem
|
||||
|
||||
Create a signed message, include some additional certificates and
|
||||
read the private key from another file:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl cms -sign -in in.txt -text -out mail.msg \
|
||||
-signer mycert.pem -inkey mykey.pem -certfile mycerts.pem
|
||||
|
||||
Create a signed message with two signers, use key identifier:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl cms -sign -in message.txt -text -out mail.msg \
|
||||
-signer mycert.pem -signer othercert.pem -keyid
|
||||
|
||||
Send a signed message under Unix directly to sendmail, including headers:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl cms -sign -in in.txt -text -signer mycert.pem \
|
||||
-from steve@openssl.org -to someone@somewhere \
|
||||
-subject "Signed message" | sendmail someone@somewhere
|
||||
|
||||
Verify a message and extract the signer's certificate if successful:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl cms -verify -in mail.msg -signer user.pem -out signedtext.txt
|
||||
|
||||
Send encrypted mail using triple DES:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl cms -encrypt -in in.txt -from steve@openssl.org \
|
||||
-to someone@somewhere -subject "Encrypted message" \
|
||||
-des3 user.pem -out mail.msg
|
||||
|
||||
Sign and encrypt mail:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl cms -sign -in ml.txt -signer my.pem -text \
|
||||
| openssl cms -encrypt -out mail.msg \
|
||||
-from steve@openssl.org -to someone@somewhere \
|
||||
-subject "Signed and Encrypted message" -des3 user.pem
|
||||
|
||||
Note: the encryption command does not include the B<-text> option because the
|
||||
message being encrypted already has MIME headers.
|
||||
|
||||
Decrypt mail:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl cms -decrypt -in mail.msg -recip mycert.pem -inkey key.pem
|
||||
|
||||
The output from Netscape form signing is a PKCS#7 structure with the
|
||||
detached signature format. You can use this program to verify the
|
||||
signature by line wrapping the base64 encoded structure and surrounding
|
||||
it with:
|
||||
|
||||
-----BEGIN PKCS7-----
|
||||
-----END PKCS7-----
|
||||
|
||||
and using the command,
|
||||
|
||||
openssl cms -verify -inform PEM -in signature.pem -content content.txt
|
||||
|
||||
alternatively you can base64 decode the signature and use
|
||||
|
||||
openssl cms -verify -inform DER -in signature.der -content content.txt
|
||||
|
||||
Create an encrypted message using 128 bit Camellia:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl cms -encrypt -in plain.txt -camellia128 -out mail.msg cert.pem
|
||||
|
||||
Add a signer to an existing message:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl cms -resign -in mail.msg -signer newsign.pem -out mail2.msg
|
||||
|
||||
Sign mail using RSA-PSS:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl cms -sign -in message.txt -text -out mail.msg \
|
||||
-signer mycert.pem -keyopt rsa_padding_mode:pss
|
||||
|
||||
Create encrypted mail using RSA-OAEP:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl cms -encrypt -in plain.txt -out mail.msg \
|
||||
-recip cert.pem -keyopt rsa_padding_mode:oaep
|
||||
|
||||
Use SHA256 KDF with an ECDH certificate:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl cms -encrypt -in plain.txt -out mail.msg \
|
||||
-recip ecdhcert.pem -keyopt ecdh_kdf_md:sha256
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 BUGS
|
||||
|
||||
The MIME parser isn't very clever: it seems to handle most messages that I've
|
||||
thrown at it but it may choke on others.
|
||||
|
||||
The code currently will only write out the signer's certificate to a file: if
|
||||
the signer has a separate encryption certificate this must be manually
|
||||
extracted. There should be some heuristic that determines the correct
|
||||
encryption certificate.
|
||||
|
||||
Ideally a database should be maintained of a certificates for each email
|
||||
address.
|
||||
|
||||
The code doesn't currently take note of the permitted symmetric encryption
|
||||
algorithms as supplied in the SMIMECapabilities signed attribute. this means the
|
||||
user has to manually include the correct encryption algorithm. It should store
|
||||
the list of permitted ciphers in a database and only use those.
|
||||
|
||||
No revocation checking is done on the signer's certificate.

||||

=head1 NAME
|
||||
|
||||
config - OpenSSL CONF library configuration files
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
||||
|
||||
The OpenSSL CONF library can be used to read configuration files.
|
||||
It is used for the OpenSSL master configuration file B<openssl.cnf>
|
||||
and in a few other places like B<SPKAC> files and certificate extension
|
||||
files for the B<x509> utility. OpenSSL applications can also use the
|
||||
CONF library for their own purposes.
|
||||
|
||||
A configuration file is divided into a number of sections. Each section
|
||||
starts with a line B<[ section_name ]> and ends when a new section is
|
||||
started or end of file is reached. A section name can consist of
|
||||
alphanumeric characters and underscores.
|
||||
|
||||
The first section of a configuration file is special and is referred
|
||||
to as the B<default> section this is usually unnamed and is from the
|
||||
start of file until the first named section. When a name is being looked up
|
||||
it is first looked up in a named section (if any) and then the
|
||||
default section.
|
||||
|
||||
The environment is mapped onto a section called B<ENV>.
|
||||
|
||||
Comments can be included by preceding them with the B<#> character
|
||||
|
||||
Each section in a configuration file consists of a number of name and
|
||||
value pairs of the form B<name=value>
|
||||
|
||||
The B<name> string can contain any alphanumeric characters as well as
|
||||
a few punctuation symbols such as B<.> B<,> B<;> and B<_>.
|
||||
|
||||
The B<value> string consists of the string following the B<=> character
|
||||
until end of line with any leading and trailing white space removed.
|
||||
|
||||
The value string undergoes variable expansion. This can be done by
|
||||
including the form B<$var> or B<${var}>: this will substitute the value
|
||||
of the named variable in the current section. It is also possible to
|
||||
substitute a value from another section using the syntax B<$section::name>
|
||||
or B<${section::name}>. By using the form B<$ENV::name> environment
|
||||
variables can be substituted. It is also possible to assign values to
|
||||
environment variables by using the name B<ENV::name>, this will work
|
||||
if the program looks up environment variables using the B<CONF> library
|
||||
instead of calling B<getenv()> directly.
|
||||
|
||||
It is possible to escape certain characters by using any kind of quote
|
||||
or the B<\> character. By making the last character of a line a B<\>
|
||||
a B<value> string can be spread across multiple lines. In addition
|
||||
the sequences B<\n>, B<\r>, B<\b> and B<\t> are recognized.
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 OPENSSL LIBRARY CONFIGURATION
|
||||
|
||||
In OpenSSL 0.9.7 and later applications can automatically configure certain
|
||||
aspects of OpenSSL using the master OpenSSL configuration file, or optionally
|
||||
an alternative configuration file. The B<openssl> utility includes this
|
||||
functionality: any sub command uses the master OpenSSL configuration file
|
||||
unless an option is used in the sub command to use an alternative configuration
|
||||
file.
|
||||
|
||||
To enable library configuration the default section needs to contain an
|
||||
appropriate line which points to the main configuration section. The default
|
||||
name is B<openssl_conf> which is used by the B<openssl> utility. Other
|
||||
applications may use an alternative name such as B<myapplicaton_conf>.
|
||||
|
||||
The configuration section should consist of a set of name value pairs which
|
||||
contain specific module configuration information. The B<name> represents
|
||||
the name of the I<configuration module> the meaning of the B<value> is
|
||||
module specific: it may, for example, represent a further configuration
|
||||
section containing configuration module specific information. E.g.
|
||||
|
||||
openssl_conf = openssl_init
|
||||
|
||||
[openssl_init]
|
||||
|
||||
oid_section = new_oids
|
||||
engines = engine_section
|
||||
|
||||
[new_oids]
|
||||
|
||||
... new oids here ...
|
||||
|
||||
[engine_section]
|
||||
|
||||
... engine stuff here ...
|
||||
|
||||
The features of each configuration module are described below.
|
||||
|
||||
=head2 ASN1 OBJECT CONFIGURATION MODULE
|
||||
|
||||
This module has the name B<oid_section>. The value of this variable points
|
||||
to a section containing name value pairs of OIDs: the name is the OID short
|
||||
and long name, the value is the numerical form of the OID. Although some of
|
||||
the B<openssl> utility sub commands already have their own ASN1 OBJECT section
|
||||
functionality not all do. By using the ASN1 OBJECT configuration module
|
||||
B<all> the B<openssl> utility sub commands can see the new objects as well
|
||||
as any compliant applications. For example:
|
||||
|
||||
[new_oids]
|
||||
|
||||
some_new_oid = 1.2.3.4
|
||||
some_other_oid = 1.2.3.5
|
||||
|
||||
In OpenSSL 0.9.8 it is also possible to set the value to the long name followed
|
||||
by a comma and the numerical OID form. For example:
|
||||
|
||||
shortName = some object long name, 1.2.3.4
|
||||
|
||||
=head2 ENGINE CONFIGURATION MODULE
|
||||
|
||||
This ENGINE configuration module has the name B<engines>. The value of this
|
||||
variable points to a section containing further ENGINE configuration
|
||||
information.
|
||||
|
||||
The section pointed to by B<engines> is a table of engine names (though see
|
||||
B<engine_id> below) and further sections containing configuration information
|
||||
specific to each ENGINE.
|
||||
|
||||
Each ENGINE specific section is used to set default algorithms, load
|
||||
dynamic, perform initialization and send ctrls. The actual operation performed
|
||||
depends on the I<command> name which is the name of the name value pair. The
|
||||
currently supported commands are listed below.
|
||||
|
||||
For example:
|
||||
|
||||
[engine_section]
|
||||
|
||||
# Configure ENGINE named "foo"
|
||||
foo = foo_section
|
||||
# Configure ENGINE named "bar"
|
||||
bar = bar_section
|
||||
|
||||
[foo_section]
|
||||
... foo ENGINE specific commands ...
|
||||
|
||||
[bar_section]
|
||||
... "bar" ENGINE specific commands ...
|
||||
|
||||
The command B<engine_id> is used to give the ENGINE name. If used this
|
||||
command must be first. For example:
|
||||
|
||||
[engine_section]
|
||||
# This would normally handle an ENGINE named "foo"
|
||||
foo = foo_section
|
||||
|
||||
[foo_section]
|
||||
# Override default name and use "myfoo" instead.
|
||||
engine_id = myfoo
|
||||
|
||||
The command B<dynamic_path> loads and adds an ENGINE from the given path. It
|
||||
is equivalent to sending the ctrls B<SO_PATH> with the path argument followed
|
||||
by B<LIST_ADD> with value 2 and B<LOAD> to the dynamic ENGINE. If this is
|
||||
not the required behaviour then alternative ctrls can be sent directly
|
||||
to the dynamic ENGINE using ctrl commands.
|
||||
|
||||
The command B<init> determines whether to initialize the ENGINE. If the value
|
||||
is B<0> the ENGINE will not be initialized, if B<1> and attempt it made to
|
||||
initialized the ENGINE immediately. If the B<init> command is not present
|
||||
then an attempt will be made to initialize the ENGINE after all commands in
|
||||
its section have been processed.
|
||||
|
||||
The command B<default_algorithms> sets the default algorithms an ENGINE will
|
||||
supply using the functions B<ENGINE_set_default_string()>
|
||||
|
||||
If the name matches none of the above command names it is assumed to be a
|
||||
ctrl command which is sent to the ENGINE. The value of the command is the
|
||||
argument to the ctrl command. If the value is the string B<EMPTY> then no
|
||||
value is sent to the command.
|
||||
|
||||
For example:
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
[engine_section]
|
||||
|
||||
# Configure ENGINE named "foo"
|
||||
foo = foo_section
|
||||
|
||||
[foo_section]
|
||||
# Load engine from DSO
|
||||
dynamic_path = /some/path/fooengine.so
|
||||
# A foo specific ctrl.
|
||||
some_ctrl = some_value
|
||||
# Another ctrl that doesn't take a value.
|
||||
other_ctrl = EMPTY
|
||||
# Supply all default algorithms
|
||||
default_algorithms = ALL
|
||||
|
||||
=head2 EVP CONFIGURATION MODULE
|
||||
|
||||
This modules has the name B<alg_section> which points to a section containing
|
||||
algorithm commands.
|
||||
|
||||
Currently the only algorithm command supported is B<fips_mode> whose
|
||||
value should be a boolean string such as B<on> or B<off>. If the value is
|
||||
B<on> this attempt to enter FIPS mode. If the call fails or the library is
|
||||
not FIPS capable then an error occurs.
|
||||
|
||||
For example:
|
||||
|
||||
alg_section = evp_settings
|
||||
|
||||
[evp_settings]
|
||||
|
||||
fips_mode = on
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 NOTES
|
||||
|
||||
If a configuration file attempts to expand a variable that doesn't exist
|
||||
then an error is flagged and the file will not load. This can happen
|
||||
if an attempt is made to expand an environment variable that doesn't
|
||||
exist. For example in a previous version of OpenSSL the default OpenSSL
|
||||
master configuration file used the value of B<HOME> which may not be
|
||||
defined on non Unix systems and would cause an error.
|
||||
|
||||
This can be worked around by including a B<default> section to provide
|
||||
a default value: then if the environment lookup fails the default value
|
||||
will be used instead. For this to work properly the default value must
|
||||
be defined earlier in the configuration file than the expansion. See
|
||||
the B<EXAMPLES> section for an example of how to do this.
|
||||
|
||||
If the same variable exists in the same section then all but the last
|
||||
value will be silently ignored. In certain circumstances such as with
|
||||
DNs the same field may occur multiple times. This is usually worked
|
||||
around by ignoring any characters before an initial B<.> e.g.
|
||||
|
||||
1.OU="My first OU"
|
||||
2.OU="My Second OU"
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 EXAMPLES
|
||||
|
||||
Here is a sample configuration file using some of the features
|
||||
mentioned above.
|
||||
|
||||
# This is the default section.
|
||||
|
||||
HOME=/temp
|
||||
RANDFILE= ${ENV::HOME}/.rnd
|
||||
configdir=$ENV::HOME/config
|
||||
|
||||
[ section_one ]
|
||||
|
||||
# We are now in section one.
|
||||
|
||||
# Quotes permit leading and trailing whitespace
|
||||
any = " any variable name "
|
||||
|
||||
other = A string that can \
|
||||
cover several lines \
|
||||
by including \\ characters
|
||||
|
||||
message = Hello World\n
|
||||
|
||||
[ section_two ]
|
||||
|
||||
greeting = $section_one::message
|
||||
|
||||
This next example shows how to expand environment variables safely.
|
||||
|
||||
Suppose you want a variable called B<tmpfile> to refer to a
|
||||
temporary filename. The directory it is placed in can determined by
|
||||
the the B<TEMP> or B<TMP> environment variables but they may not be
|
||||
set to any value at all. If you just include the environment variable
|
||||
names and the variable doesn't exist then this will cause an error when
|
||||
an attempt is made to load the configuration file. By making use of the
|
||||
default section both values can be looked up with B<TEMP> taking
|
||||
priority and B</tmp> used if neither is defined:
|
||||
|
||||
TMP=/tmp
|
||||
# The above value is used if TMP isn't in the environment
|
||||
TEMP=$ENV::TMP
|
||||
# The above value is used if TEMP isn't in the environment
|
||||
tmpfile=${ENV::TEMP}/tmp.filename
|
||||
|
||||
Simple OpenSSL library configuration example to enter FIPS mode:
|
||||
|
||||
# Default appname: should match "appname" parameter (if any)
|
||||
# supplied to CONF_modules_load_file et al.
|
||||
openssl_conf = openssl_conf_section
|
||||
|
||||
[openssl_conf_section]
|
||||
# Configuration module list
|
||||
alg_section = evp_sect
|
||||
|
||||
[evp_sect]
|
||||
# Set to "yes" to enter FIPS mode if supported
|
||||
fips_mode = yes
|
||||
|
||||
Note: in the above example you will get an error in non FIPS capable versions
|
||||
of OpenSSL.
|
||||
|
||||
More complex OpenSSL library configuration. Add OID and don't enter FIPS mode:
|
||||
|
||||
# Default appname: should match "appname" parameter (if any)
|
||||
# supplied to CONF_modules_load_file et al.
|
||||
openssl_conf = openssl_conf_section
|
||||
|
||||
[openssl_conf_section]
|
||||
# Configuration module list
|
||||
alg_section = evp_sect
|
||||
oid_section = new_oids
|
||||
|
||||
[evp_sect]
|
||||
# This will have no effect as FIPS mode is off by default.
|
||||
# Set to "yes" to enter FIPS mode, if supported
|
||||
fips_mode = no
|
||||
|
||||
[new_oids]
|
||||
# New OID, just short name
|
||||
newoid1 = 1.2.3.4.1
|
||||
# New OID shortname and long name
|
||||
newoid2 = New OID 2 long name, 1.2.3.4.2
|
||||
|
||||
The above examples can be used with with any application supporting library
|
||||
configuration if "openssl_conf" is modified to match the appropriate "appname".
|
||||
|
||||
For example if the second sample file above is saved to "example.cnf" then
|
||||
the command line:
|
||||
|
||||
OPENSSL_CONF=example.cnf openssl asn1parse -genstr OID:1.2.3.4.1
|
||||
|
||||
will output:
|
||||
|
||||
0:d=0 hl=2 l= 4 prim: OBJECT :newoid1
|
||||

showing that the OID "newoid1" has been added as "1.2.3.4.1".
|

|
||||
=head1 BUGS
|
||||
|
||||
Currently there is no way to include characters using the octal B<\nnn>
|
||||
form. Strings are all null terminated so nulls cannot form part of
|
||||
the value.
|
||||
|
||||
The escaping isn't quite right: if you want to use sequences like B<\n>
|
||||
you can't use any quote escaping on the same line.
|
||||
|
||||
Files are loaded in a single pass. This means that an variable expansion
|
||||
will only work if the variables referenced are defined earlier in the
|
||||
file.

The B<crl> command processes CRL files in DER or PEM format.
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 COMMAND OPTIONS
|
||||
|
||||
=over 4
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-inform DER|PEM>
|
||||
|
||||
This specifies the input format. B<DER> format is DER encoded CRL
|
||||
structure. B<PEM> (the default) is a base64 encoded version of
|
||||
the DER form with header and footer lines.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-outform DER|PEM>
|
||||
|
||||
This specifies the output format, the options have the same meaning as the
|
||||
B<-inform> option.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-in filename>
|
||||
|
||||
This specifies the input filename to read from or standard input if this
|
||||
option is not specified.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-out filename>
|
||||
|
||||
specifies the output filename to write to or standard output by
|
||||
default.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-text>
|
||||
|
||||
print out the CRL in text form.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-nameopt option>
|
||||
|
||||
option which determines how the subject or issuer names are displayed. See
|
||||
the description of B<-nameopt> in L<x509(1)|x509(1)>.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-noout>
|
||||
|
||||
don't output the encoded version of the CRL.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-hash>
|
||||
|
||||
output a hash of the issuer name. This can be use to lookup CRLs in
|
||||
a directory by issuer name.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-hash_old>
|
||||
|
||||
outputs the "hash" of the CRL issuer name using the older algorithm
|
||||
as used by OpenSSL versions before 1.0.0.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-issuer>
|
||||
|
||||
output the issuer name.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-lastupdate>
|
||||
|
||||
output the lastUpdate field.
|
||||
|

=item B<-nextupdate>
|
||||
|
||||
output the nextUpdate field.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-CAfile file>
|
||||
|
||||
verify the signature on a CRL by looking up the issuing certificate in
|
||||
B<file>
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-CApath dir>
|
||||
|
||||
verify the signature on a CRL by looking up the issuing certificate in
|
||||
B<dir>. This directory must be a standard certificate directory: that
|
||||
is a hash of each subject name (using B<x509 -hash>) should be linked
|
||||
to each certificate.
|
||||
|
||||
=back
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 NOTES
|
||||
|
||||
The PEM CRL format uses the header and footer lines:
|
||||
|
||||
-----BEGIN X509 CRL-----
|
||||
-----END X509 CRL-----
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 EXAMPLES
|
||||
|
||||
Convert a CRL file from PEM to DER:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl crl -in crl.pem -outform DER -out crl.der
|
||||
|
||||
Output the text form of a DER encoded certificate:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl crl -in crl.der -text -noout
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 BUGS
|
||||
|
||||
Ideally it should be possible to create a CRL using appropriate options
|
||||
and files too.

=head1 SYNOPSIS
|
||||
|

[B<-nocrl>]
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
||||
|
||||
The B<crl2pkcs7> command takes an optional CRL and one or more
|
||||
certificates and converts them into a PKCS#7 degenerate "certificates
|
||||
only" structure.
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 COMMAND OPTIONS
|
||||
|
||||
=over 4
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-inform DER|PEM>
|
||||
|
||||
This specifies the CRL input format. B<DER> format is DER encoded CRL
|
||||
structure.B<PEM> (the default) is a base64 encoded version of
|
||||
the DER form with header and footer lines.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-outform DER|PEM>
|
||||
|
||||
This specifies the PKCS#7 structure output format. B<DER> format is DER
|
||||
encoded PKCS#7 structure.B<PEM> (the default) is a base64 encoded version of
|
||||
the DER form with header and footer lines.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-in filename>
|
||||
|
||||
This specifies the input filename to read a CRL from or standard input if this
|
||||
option is not specified.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-out filename>
|
||||
|
||||
specifies the output filename to write the PKCS#7 structure to or standard
|
||||
output by default.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-certfile filename>
|
||||
|
||||
specifies a filename containing one or more certificates in B<PEM> format.
|
||||
All certificates in the file will be added to the PKCS#7 structure. This
|
||||
option can be used more than once to read certificates form multiple
|
||||
files.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-nocrl>
|
||||
|
||||
normally a CRL is included in the output file. With this option no CRL is
|
||||
included in the output file and a CRL is not read from the input file.
|
||||
|
||||
=back
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 EXAMPLES
|
||||
|
||||
Create a PKCS#7 structure from a certificate and CRL:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl crl2pkcs7 -in crl.pem -certfile cert.pem -out p7.pem
|
||||
|
||||
Creates a PKCS#7 structure in DER format with no CRL from several
|
||||
different certificates:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl crl2pkcs7 -nocrl -certfile newcert.pem
|
||||
-certfile demoCA/cacert.pem -outform DER -out p7.der
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 NOTES
|
||||
|
||||
The output file is a PKCS#7 signed data structure containing no signers and
|
||||
just certificates and an optional CRL.
|
||||
|
||||
This utility can be used to send certificates and CAs to Netscape as part of
|
||||
the certificate enrollment process. This involves sending the DER encoded output
|
||||
as MIME type application/x-x509-user-cert.
|
||||
|
||||
The B<PEM> encoded form with the header and footer lines removed can be used to
|
||||
install user certificates and CAs in MSIE using the Xenroll control.

The digest functions output the message digest of a supplied file or files
|
||||
in hexadecimal. The digest functions also generate and verify digital
|
||||
signatures using message digests.
|

|
||||
=head1 OPTIONS
|
||||
|
||||
=over 4
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
print out BIO debugging information.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-hex>
|
||||
|
||||
digest is to be output as a hex dump. This is the default case for a "normal"
|
||||
digest as opposed to a digital signature. See NOTES below for digital
|
||||
signatures using B<-hex>.
|
||||
|

|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-non-fips-allow>
|
||||

Allow use of non FIPS digest when in FIPS mode. This has no effect when not in
|
||||
FIPS mode.
|
||||
|

|
||||
also specified in the configuration file.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-sigopt nm:v>
|
||||
|
||||
Pass options to the signature algorithm during sign or verify operations.
|
||||

|
||||
create a hashed MAC using "key".
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-mac alg>
|
||||
|
||||
create MAC (keyed Message Authentication Code). The most popular MAC
|
||||
algorithm is HMAC (hash-based MAC), but there are other MAC algorithms
|
||||
which are not based on hash, for instance B<gost-mac> algorithm,
|
||||
supported by B<ccgost> engine. MAC keys and other options should be set
|
||||
via B<-macopt> parameter.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-macopt nm:v>
|
||||
|
||||
Passes options to MAC algorithm, specified by B<-mac> key.
|
||||
Following options are supported by both by B<HMAC> and B<gost-mac>:
|
||||
|
||||
=over 8
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<key:string>
|
||||
|

||||
the MAC algorithm for example exactly 32 chars for gost-mac.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<hexkey:string>
|
||||
|
||||
Specifies MAC key in hexadecimal form (two hex digits per byte).
|
||||
Key length must conform to any restrictions of the MAC algorithm
|

=item B<-rand file(s)>
|
||||
|
||||
a file or files containing random data used to seed the random number
|
||||
generator, or an EGD socket (see L<RAND_egd(3)|RAND_egd(3)>).
|
||||
Multiple files can be specified separated by a OS-dependent character.
|
||||
The separator is B<;> for MS-Windows, B<,> for OpenVMS, and B<:> for
|
||||
all others.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-non-fips-allow>
|
||||
|
||||
enable use of non-FIPS algorithms such as MD5 even in FIPS mode.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-fips-fingerprint>
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
for certain OpenSSL-FIPS operations.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<file...>
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
used.
|
||||
|
||||
=back
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 EXAMPLES
|
||||
|
||||
To create a hex-encoded message digest of a file:
|
||||
openssl dgst -md5 -hex file.txt
|
||||
|
||||
To sign a file using SHA-256 with binary file output:
|
||||
openssl dgst -sha256 -sign privatekey.pem -out signature.sign file.txt
|
||||
|
||||
To verify a signature:
|
||||
openssl dgst -sha256 -verify publickey.pem \
|
||||
-signature signature.sign \
|
||||
file.txt
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 NOTES
|
||||
|
||||
The digest of choice for all new applications is SHA1. Other digests are
|
||||
however still widely used.
|
||||
|
||||
When signing a file, B<dgst> will automatically determine the algorithm
|
||||
(RSA, ECC, etc) to use for signing based on the private key's ASN.1 info.
|
||||
When verifying signatures, it only handles the RSA, DSA, or ECDSA signature
|
||||
itself, not the related data to identify the signer and algorithm used in
|
||||
formats such as x.509, CMS, and S/MIME.
|
||||
|
||||
A source of random numbers is required for certain signing algorithms, in
|
||||
particular ECDSA and DSA.
|
||||
|
||||
The signing and verify options should only be used if a single file is
|
||||
being signed or verified.
|
||||
|
||||
Hex signatures cannot be verified using B<openssl>. Instead, use "xxd -r"
|
||||
or similar program to transform the hex signature into a binary signature
|
||||
prior to verification.

=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
||||
|
||||
This command is used to manipulate DH parameter files.
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 OPTIONS
|
||||
|
||||
=over 4
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-inform DER|PEM>
|
||||
|
||||
This specifies the input format. The B<DER> option uses an ASN1 DER encoded
|
||||
form compatible with the PKCS#3 DHparameter structure. The PEM form is the
|
||||
default format: it consists of the B<DER> format base64 encoded with
|
||||
additional header and footer lines.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-outform DER|PEM>
|
||||
|
||||
This specifies the output format, the options have the same meaning as the
|
||||
B<-inform> option.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-in> I<filename>
|
||||
|
||||
This specifies the input filename to read parameters from or standard input if
|
||||
this option is not specified.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-out> I<filename>
|
||||
|
||||
This specifies the output filename parameters to. Standard output is used
|
||||
if this option is not present. The output filename should B<not> be the same
|
||||
as the input filename.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-dsaparam>
|
||||
|
||||
If this option is used, DSA rather than DH parameters are read or created;
|
||||
they are converted to DH format. Otherwise, "strong" primes (such
|
||||
that (p-1)/2 is also prime) will be used for DH parameter generation.
|
||||
|
||||
DH parameter generation with the B<-dsaparam> option is much faster,
|
||||
and the recommended exponent length is shorter, which makes DH key
|
||||
exchange more efficient. Beware that with such DSA-style DH
|
||||
parameters, a fresh DH key should be created for each use to
|
||||
avoid small-subgroup attacks that may be possible otherwise.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-check>
|
||||
|
||||
check if the parameters are valid primes and generator.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-2>, B<-5>
|
||||
|
||||
The generator to use, either 2 or 5. If present then the
|
||||
input file is ignored and parameters are generated instead. If not
|
||||
present but B<numbits> is present, parameters are generated with the
|
||||
default generator 2.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-rand> I<file(s)>
|
||||
|
||||
a file or files containing random data used to seed the random number
|
||||
generator, or an EGD socket (see L<RAND_egd(3)|RAND_egd(3)>).
|
||||
Multiple files can be specified separated by a OS-dependent character.
|
||||
The separator is B<;> for MS-Windows, B<,> for OpenVMS, and B<:> for
|
||||
all others.
|
||||
|
||||
=item I<numbits>
|
||||
|
||||
this option specifies that a parameter set should be generated of size

=head1 WARNINGS
|

|

The program B<dhparam> combines the functionality of the programs B<dh> and
|
||||
B<gendh> in previous versions of OpenSSL and SSLeay. The B<dh> and B<gendh>
|
||||
programs are retained for now but may have different purposes in future
|
||||
versions of OpenSSL.
|

|
||||
=head1 NOTES
|

PEM format DH parameters use the header and footer lines:
|

-----BEGIN DH PARAMETERS-----
|

-----END DH PARAMETERS-----
|
||||
|
||||
OpenSSL currently only supports the older PKCS#3 DH, not the newer X9.42
|

DH.
|
||||
|

This program manipulates DH parameters not keys.
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 BUGS
|

|
||||
There should be a way to generate and manipulate DH keys.

=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
||||
|
||||
The B<dsa> command processes DSA keys. They can be converted between various
|
||||
forms and their components printed out. B<Note> This command uses the
|
||||
traditional SSLeay compatible format for private key encryption: newer
|
||||
applications should use the more secure PKCS#8 format using the B<pkcs8>
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 COMMAND OPTIONS
|
||||
|
||||
=over 4
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-inform DER|PEM>
|
||||
|
||||
This specifies the input format. The B<DER> option with a private key uses
|
||||
an ASN1 DER encoded form of an ASN.1 SEQUENCE consisting of the values of
|
||||
version (currently zero), p, q, g, the public and private key components
|
||||
respectively as ASN.1 INTEGERs. When used with a public key it uses a
|
||||
SubjectPublicKeyInfo structure: it is an error if the key is not DSA.
|
||||
|
||||
The B<PEM> form is the default format: it consists of the B<DER> format base64
|
||||
encoded with additional header and footer lines. In the case of a private key
|
||||
PKCS#8 format is also accepted.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-outform DER|PEM>
|
||||
|
||||
This specifies the output format, the options have the same meaning as the
|
||||
B<-inform> option.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-in filename>
|
||||
|
||||
This specifies the input filename to read a key from or standard input if this
|
||||
option is not specified. If the key is encrypted a pass phrase will be
|
||||
prompted for.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-passin arg>
|
||||
|
||||
the input file password source. For more information about the format of B<arg>
|
||||
see the B<PASS PHRASE ARGUMENTS> section in L<openssl(1)|openssl(1)>.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-out filename>
|
||||
|
||||
This specifies the output filename to write a key to or standard output by
|
||||
is not specified. If any encryption options are set then a pass phrase will be
|
||||
prompted for. The output filename should B<not> be the same as the input
|
||||
filename.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-passout arg>
|
||||
|
||||
the output file password source. For more information about the format of B<arg>
|
||||
see the B<PASS PHRASE ARGUMENTS> section in L<openssl(1)|openssl(1)>.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-aes128|-aes192|-aes256|-camellia128|-camellia192|-camellia256|-des|-des3|-idea>
|
||||
|
||||
These options encrypt the private key with the specified
|
||||
cipher before outputting it. A pass phrase is prompted for.
|
||||
If none of these options is specified the key is written in plain text. This
|
||||
means that using the B<dsa> utility to read in an encrypted key with no
|
||||
encryption option can be used to remove the pass phrase from a key, or by
|
||||
setting the encryption options it can be use to add or change the pass phrase.
|
||||
These options can only be used with PEM format output files.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-text>
|
||||
|
||||
prints out the public, private key components and parameters.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-noout>
|
||||
|
||||
this option prevents output of the encoded version of the key.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-modulus>
|
||||
|
||||
this option prints out the value of the public key component of the key.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-pubin>
|
||||
|
||||
by default a private key is read from the input file: with this option a
|
||||
public key is read instead.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-pubout>
|
||||
|
||||
by default a private key is output. With this option a public
|
||||
key will be output instead. This option is automatically set if the input is
|
||||
a public key.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-engine id>
|
||||
|
||||
specifying an engine (by its unique B<id> string) will cause B<dsa>
|
||||
to attempt to obtain a functional reference to the specified engine,
|
||||
thus initialising it if needed. The engine will then be set as the default
|
||||
for all available algorithms.

|
||||
=over 4
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-inform DER|PEM>
|
||||
|

This specifies the input format. The B<DER> option uses an ASN1 DER encoded
|
||||
form compatible with RFC2459 (PKIX) DSS-Parms that is a SEQUENCE consisting
|
||||
of p, q and g respectively. The PEM form is the default format: it consists
|

=item B<-outform DER|PEM>
|
||||
|

This specifies the output format, the options have the same meaning as the
|
||||
B<-inform> option.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-in filename>
|
||||
|
||||
This specifies the input filename to read parameters from or standard input if
|

this option is not specified. If the B<numbits> parameter is included then
|
||||
this option will be ignored.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-out filename>
|
||||
|
||||
This specifies the output filename parameters to. Standard output is used
|

|
||||
=item B<-genkey>
|
||||
|

=item B<-rand file(s)>
|
||||
|
||||
a file or files containing random data used to seed the random number
|

generator, or an EGD socket (see L<RAND_egd(3)|RAND_egd(3)>).
|
||||
Multiple files can be specified separated by a OS-dependent character.
|

The separator is B<;> for MS-Windows, B<,> for OpenVMS, and B<:> for
|
||||
all others.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<numbits>
|
||||
|
||||
this option specifies that a parameter set should be generated of size
|

B<numbits>. It must be the last option. If this option is included then
|
||||
the input file (if any) is ignored.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-engine id>
|
||||
|
||||
specifying an engine (by its unique B<id> string) will cause B<dsaparam>
|

=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
||||
|
||||
The B<ec> command processes EC keys. They can be converted between various
|
||||
forms and their components printed out. B<Note> OpenSSL uses the
|
||||
private key format specified in 'SEC 1: Elliptic Curve Cryptography'
|
||||
(http://www.secg.org/). To convert a OpenSSL EC private key into the
|
||||
PKCS#8 private key format use the B<pkcs8> command.

|
||||
=head1 COMMAND OPTIONS
|
||||
|
||||
=over 4
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-inform DER|PEM>
|
||||
|
||||
This specifies the input format. The B<DER> option with a private key uses
|
||||
an ASN.1 DER encoded SEC1 private key. When used with a public key it
|
||||
uses the SubjectPublicKeyInfo structure as specified in RFC 3280.
|
||||
The B<PEM> form is the default format: it consists of the B<DER> format base64
|
||||
encoded with additional header and footer lines. In the case of a private key
|
||||
PKCS#8 format is also accepted.
|

=item B<-in filename>
|
||||
|

option is not specified. If the key is encrypted a pass phrase will be
|
||||
prompted for.
|

=item B<-out filename>
|
||||
|

is not specified. If any encryption options are set then a pass phrase will be
|
||||
prompted for. The output filename should B<not> be the same as the input

see the B<PASS PHRASE ARGUMENTS> section in L<openssl(1)|openssl(1)>.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-des|-des3|-idea>
|
||||
|
||||
These options encrypt the private key with the DES, triple DES, IDEA or
|
||||
any other cipher supported by OpenSSL before outputting it. A pass phrase is
|
||||
prompted for.
|
||||
If none of these options is specified the key is written in plain text. This
|
||||
means that using the B<ec> utility to read in an encrypted key with no

this option prevents output of the encoded version of the key.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-modulus>
|
||||
|

|
||||
=item B<-conv_form>
|
||||
|
||||
This specifies how the points on the elliptic curve are converted
|
||||
into octet strings. Possible values are: B<compressed> (the default
|
||||
value), B<uncompressed> and B<hybrid>. For more information regarding
|
||||
the point conversion forms please read the X9.62 standard.
|
||||
B<Note> Due to patent issues the B<compressed> option is disabled
|
||||
by default for binary curves and can be enabled by defining
|
||||
the preprocessor macro B<OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP> at compile time.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-param_enc arg>
|
||||
|
||||
This specifies how the elliptic curve parameters are encoded.
|
||||
Possible value are: B<named_curve>, i.e. the ec parameters are
|
||||
specified by a OID, or B<explicit> where the ec parameters are
|
||||
explicitly given (see RFC 3279 for the definition of the
|
||||
EC parameters structures). The default value is B<named_curve>.
|
||||
B<Note> the B<implicitlyCA> alternative ,as specified in RFC 3279,
|
||||
is currently not implemented in OpenSSL.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-engine id>
|
||||
|
||||
specifying an engine (by its unique B<id> string) will cause B<ec>
|
||||
to attempt to obtain a functional reference to the specified engine,
|
||||
thus initialising it if needed. The engine will then be set as the default
|
||||
for all available algorithms.

=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
||||
|
||||
This command is used to manipulate or generate EC parameter files.
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 OPTIONS
|
||||
|
||||
=over 4
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-inform DER|PEM>
|
||||
|
||||
This specifies the input format. The B<DER> option uses an ASN.1 DER encoded
|
||||
form compatible with RFC 3279 EcpkParameters. The PEM form is the default
|
||||
format: it consists of the B<DER> format base64 encoded with additional
|
||||
header and footer lines.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-outform DER|PEM>
|
||||
|
||||
This specifies the output format, the options have the same meaning as the
|
||||
B<-inform> option.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-in filename>
|
||||
|
||||
This specifies the input filename to read parameters from or standard input if
|
||||
this option is not specified.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-out filename>
|
||||
|
||||
This specifies the output filename parameters to. Standard output is used
|
||||
if this option is not present. The output filename should B<not> be the same
|
||||
as the input filename.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-noout>
|
||||
|
||||
This option inhibits the output of the encoded version of the parameters.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-text>
|
||||
|
||||
This option prints out the EC parameters in human readable form.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-C>
|
||||
|
||||
This option converts the EC parameters into C code. The parameters can then
|
||||
be loaded by calling the B<get_ec_group_XXX()> function.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-check>
|
||||
|
||||
Validate the elliptic curve parameters.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-name arg>
|
||||
|
||||
Use the EC parameters with the specified 'short' name. Use B<-list_curves>
|
||||
to get a list of all currently implemented EC parameters.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-list_curves>
|
||||
|
||||
If this options is specified B<ecparam> will print out a list of all
|
||||
currently implemented EC parameters names and exit.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-conv_form>
|
||||
|
||||
This specifies how the points on the elliptic curve are converted
|
||||
into octet strings. Possible values are: B<compressed> (the default
|
||||
value), B<uncompressed> and B<hybrid>. For more information regarding
|
||||
the point conversion forms please read the X9.62 standard.
|
||||
B<Note> Due to patent issues the B<compressed> option is disabled
|
||||
by default for binary curves and can be enabled by defining
|
||||
the preprocessor macro B<OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP> at compile time.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-param_enc arg>
|
||||
|
||||
This specifies how the elliptic curve parameters are encoded.
|
||||
Possible value are: B<named_curve>, i.e. the ec parameters are
|
||||
specified by a OID, or B<explicit> where the ec parameters are
|
||||
explicitly given (see RFC 3279 for the definition of the
|
||||
EC parameters structures). The default value is B<named_curve>.
|
||||
B<Note> the B<implicitlyCA> alternative ,as specified in RFC 3279,
|
||||
is currently not implemented in OpenSSL.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-no_seed>
|
||||
|
||||
This option inhibits that the 'seed' for the parameter generation
|
||||
is included in the ECParameters structure (see RFC 3279).
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-genkey>
|
||||
|
||||
This option will generate a EC private key using the specified parameters.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-rand file(s)>
|
||||
|
||||
a file or files containing random data used to seed the random number
|
||||
generator, or an EGD socket (see L<RAND_egd(3)|RAND_egd(3)>).
|
||||
Multiple files can be specified separated by a OS-dependent character.
|
||||
The separator is B<;> for MS-Windows, B<,> for OpenVMS, and B<:> for
|
||||
all others.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-engine id>
|
||||
|
||||
specifying an engine (by its unique B<id> string) will cause B<ecparam>
|
||||
to attempt to obtain a functional reference to the specified engine,
|
||||
thus initialising it if needed. The engine will then be set as the default
|
||||
for all available algorithms.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
=head1 NOTES
|
||||
|
||||
PEM format EC parameters use the header and footer lines:
|
||||
|
||||
-----BEGIN EC PARAMETERS-----
|
||||
-----END EC PARAMETERS-----
|
||||
|
||||
OpenSSL is currently not able to generate new groups and therefore
|
||||
B<ecparam> can only create EC parameters from known (named) curves.
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 EXAMPLES
|
||||
|
||||
To create EC parameters with the group 'prime192v1':
|
||||
|
||||
openssl ecparam -out ec_param.pem -name prime192v1
|
||||
|
||||
To create EC parameters with explicit parameters:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl ecparam -out ec_param.pem -name prime192v1 -param_enc explicit
|
||||
|
||||
To validate given EC parameters:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl ecparam -in ec_param.pem -check
|
||||
|
||||
To create EC parameters and a private key:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl ecparam -out ec_key.pem -name prime192v1 -genkey
|
||||
|
||||
To change the point encoding to 'compressed':
|
||||
|
||||
openssl ecparam -in ec_in.pem -out ec_out.pem -conv_form compressed
|
||||
|
||||
To print out the EC parameters to standard output:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl ecparam -in ec_param.pem -noout -text

=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
||||
|
||||
The symmetric cipher commands allow data to be encrypted or decrypted
|
||||
using various block and stream ciphers using keys based on passwords
|
||||
or explicitly provided. Base64 encoding or decoding can also be performed
|
||||
either by itself or in addition to the encryption or decryption.
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 OPTIONS
|
||||
|
||||
=over 4
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-in filename>
|
||||
|
||||
the input filename, standard input by default.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-out filename>
|
||||
|
||||
the output filename, standard output by default.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-pass arg>
|
||||
|
||||
the password source. For more information about the format of B<arg>
|
||||
see the B<PASS PHRASE ARGUMENTS> section in L<openssl(1)|openssl(1)>.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-salt>
|
||||
|
||||
use a salt in the key derivation routines. This is the default.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-nosalt>
|
||||
|
||||
don't use a salt in the key derivation routines. This option B<SHOULD NOT> be
|
||||
used except for test purposes or compatibility with ancient versions of OpenSSL
|
||||
and SSLeay.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-e>
|
||||
|
||||
encrypt the input data: this is the default.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-d>
|
||||
|
||||
decrypt the input data.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-a>
|
||||
|
||||
base64 process the data. This means that if encryption is taking place
|
||||
the data is base64 encoded after encryption. If decryption is set then
|
||||
the input data is base64 decoded before being decrypted.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-base64>
|
||||
|
||||
same as B<-a>
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-A>
|
||||
|
||||
if the B<-a> option is set then base64 process the data on one line.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-k password>
|
||||
|
||||
the password to derive the key from. This is for compatibility with previous
|
||||
versions of OpenSSL. Superseded by the B<-pass> argument.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-kfile filename>
|
||||
|
||||
read the password to derive the key from the first line of B<filename>.
|
||||
This is for compatibility with previous versions of OpenSSL. Superseded by
|
||||
the B<-pass> argument.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-nosalt>
|
||||
|
||||
do not use a salt
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-salt>
|
||||
|
||||
use salt (randomly generated or provide with B<-S> option) when
|
||||
encrypting (this is the default).
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-S salt>
|
||||
|
||||
the actual salt to use: this must be represented as a string of hex digits.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-K key>
|
||||
|
||||
the actual key to use: this must be represented as a string comprised only
|
||||
of hex digits. If only the key is specified, the IV must additionally specified
|
||||
using the B<-iv> option. When both a key and a password are specified, the
|
||||
key given with the B<-K> option will be used and the IV generated from the
|
||||
password will be taken. It probably does not make much sense to specify
|
||||
both key and password.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-iv IV>
|
||||
|
||||
the actual IV to use: this must be represented as a string comprised only
|
||||
of hex digits. When only the key is specified using the B<-K> option, the
|
||||
IV must explicitly be defined. When a password is being specified using
|
||||
one of the other options, the IV is generated from this password.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-p>
|
||||
|
||||
print out the key and IV used.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-P>
|
||||
|
||||
print out the key and IV used then immediately exit: don't do any encryption
|
||||
or decryption.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-bufsize number>
|
||||
|
||||
set the buffer size for I/O
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-nopad>
|
||||
|
||||
disable standard block padding
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-debug>
|
||||
|
||||
debug the BIOs used for I/O.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-z>
|
||||
|
||||
Compress or decompress clear text using zlib before encryption or after
|
||||
decryption. This option exists only if OpenSSL with compiled with zlib
|
||||
or zlib-dynamic option.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-none>
|
||||
|
||||
Use NULL cipher (no encryption or decryption of input).
|
||||
|
||||
=back
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 NOTES
|
||||
|
||||
The program can be called either as B<openssl ciphername> or
|
||||
B<openssl enc -ciphername>. But the first form doesn't work with
|
||||
engine-provided ciphers, because this form is processed before the
|
||||
configuration file is read and any ENGINEs loaded.
|
||||
|
||||
Engines which provide entirely new encryption algorithms (such as ccgost
|
||||
engine which provides gost89 algorithm) should be configured in the
|
||||
configuration file. Engines, specified in the command line using -engine
|
||||
options can only be used for hadrware-assisted implementations of
|
||||
ciphers, which are supported by OpenSSL core or other engine, specified
|
||||
in the configuration file.
|
||||
|
||||
When enc command lists supported ciphers, ciphers provided by engines,
|
||||
specified in the configuration files are listed too.
|
||||
|
||||
A password will be prompted for to derive the key and IV if necessary.
|
||||
|
||||
The B<-salt> option should B<ALWAYS> be used if the key is being derived
|
||||
from a password unless you want compatibility with previous versions of
|
||||
OpenSSL and SSLeay.
|
||||
|
||||
Without the B<-salt> option it is possible to perform efficient dictionary
|
||||
attacks on the password and to attack stream cipher encrypted data. The reason
|
||||
for this is that without the salt the same password always generates the same
|
||||
encryption key. When the salt is being used the first eight bytes of the
|
||||
encrypted data are reserved for the salt: it is generated at random when
|
||||
encrypting a file and read from the encrypted file when it is decrypted.
|
||||
|
||||
Some of the ciphers do not have large keys and others have security
|
||||
implications if not used correctly. A beginner is advised to just use
|
||||
a strong block cipher in CBC mode such as bf or des3.
|
||||
|
||||
All the block ciphers normally use PKCS#5 padding also known as standard block
|
||||
padding: this allows a rudimentary integrity or password check to be
|
||||
performed. However since the chance of random data passing the test is
|
||||
better than 1 in 256 it isn't a very good test.
|
||||
|
||||
If padding is disabled then the input data must be a multiple of the cipher
|
||||
block length.
|
||||
|
||||
All RC2 ciphers have the same key and effective key length.
|
||||
|
||||
Blowfish and RC5 algorithms use a 128 bit key.
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 SUPPORTED CIPHERS
|
||||
|
||||
Note that some of these ciphers can be disabled at compile time
|
||||
and some are available only if an appropriate engine is configured
|
||||
in the configuration file. The output of the B<enc> command run with
|
||||
unsupported options (for example B<openssl enc -help>) includes a
|
||||
list of ciphers, supported by your versesion of OpenSSL, including
|
||||
ones provided by configured engines.
|
||||
|
||||
The B<enc> program does not support authenticated encryption modes
|
||||
like CCM and GCM. The utility does not store or retrieve the
|
||||
authentication tag.

=head1 BUGS
|
||||
|
||||
The B<-A> option when used with large files doesn't work properly.
|
||||
|

There should be an option to allow an iteration count to be included.
|

The B<enc> program only supports a fixed number of algorithms with

||||
certain parameters. So if, for example, you want to use RC2 with a
|
||||
76 bit key or RC4 with an 84 bit key you can't use this program.

|

|

B<openssl errstr error_code>
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
||||
|
||||
Sometimes an application will not load error message and only
|
||||
numerical forms will be available. The B<errstr> utility can be used to
|
||||
display the meaning of the hex code. The hex code is the hex digits after the
|
||||
second colon.
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 EXAMPLE
|
||||
|
||||
The error code:
|
||||
|
||||
27594:error:2006D080:lib(32):func(109):reason(128):bss_file.c:107:
|
||||
|
||||
can be displayed with:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl errstr 2006D080
|
||||
|
||||
to produce the error message:
|
||||
|
||||
error:2006D080:BIO routines:BIO_new_file:no such file

=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
||||
|
||||
The B<gendsa> command generates a DSA private key from a DSA parameter file
|
||||
(which will be typically generated by the B<openssl dsaparam> command).
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 OPTIONS
|
||||
|
||||
=over 4
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-aes128|-aes192|-aes256|-camellia128|-camellia192|-camellia256|-des|-des3|-idea>
|
||||
|
||||
These options encrypt the private key with specified
|
||||
cipher before outputting it. A pass phrase is prompted for.
|
||||
If none of these options is specified no encryption is used.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-rand file(s)>
|
||||
|
||||
a file or files containing random data used to seed the random number
|
||||
generator, or an EGD socket (see L<RAND_egd(3)|RAND_egd(3)>).
|
||||
Multiple files can be specified separated by a OS-dependent character.
|
||||
The separator is B<;> for MS-Windows, B<,> for OpenVMS, and B<:> for
|
||||
all others.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-engine id>
|
||||
|
||||
specifying an engine (by its unique B<id> string) will cause B<gendsa>
|
||||
to attempt to obtain a functional reference to the specified engine,
|
||||
thus initialising it if needed. The engine will then be set as the default
|
||||
for all available algorithms.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<paramfile>
|
||||
|
||||
This option specifies the DSA parameter file to use. The parameters in this
|
||||
file determine the size of the private key. DSA parameters can be generated
|
||||
and examined using the B<openssl dsaparam> command.
|
||||
|
||||
=back
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 NOTES
|
||||
|
||||
DSA key generation is little more than random number generation so it is
|
||||
much quicker that RSA key generation for example.

=item B<-outform DER|PEM>
|
||||
|
||||
This specifies the output format DER or PEM.
|

see the B<PASS PHRASE ARGUMENTS> section in L<openssl(1)|openssl(1)>.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-cipher>
|
||||
|
||||
This option encrypts the private key with the supplied cipher. Any algorithm
|

name accepted by EVP_get_cipherbyname() is acceptable such as B<des3>.
|
||||
|

for all available algorithms. If used this option should precede all other
|
||||
options.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-algorithm alg>
|
||||
|

are mutually exclusive.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-pkeyopt opt:value>
|
||||
|
||||
set the public key algorithm option B<opt> to B<value>. The precise set of
|

options supported depends on the public key algorithm used and its
|
||||
implementation. See B<KEY GENERATION OPTIONS> below for more details.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-genparam>
|
||||
|
||||
generate a set of parameters instead of a private key. If used this option must

||||
precede and B<-algorithm>, B<-paramfile> or B<-pkeyopt> options.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-paramfile filename>
|
||||
|
||||
Some public key algorithms generate a private key based on a set of parameters.
|
||||
They can be supplied using this option. If this option is used the public key
|
||||
algorithm used is determined by the parameters. If used this option must
|

|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-engine id>
|
||||
|
||||
specifying an engine (by its unique B<id> string) will cause B<genrsa>
|

for all available algorithms.
|

|

=item B<numbits>
|

specified. The default is 512.
|

|
||||
=back
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 NOTES
|
||||
|
||||
RSA private key generation essentially involves the generation of two prime
|
||||
numbers. When generating a private key various symbols will be output to
|
||||
indicate the progress of the generation. A B<.> represents each number which
|
||||
has passed an initial sieve test, B<+> means a number has passed a single
|
||||
round of the Miller-Rabin primality test. A newline means that the number has
|
||||
passed all the prime tests (the actual number depends on the key size).
|
||||
|
||||
Because key generation is a random process the time taken to generate a key
|
||||
may vary somewhat.
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 BUGS
|
||||
|
||||
A quirk of the prime generation algorithm is that it cannot generate small
|
||||
primes. Therefore the number of bits should not be less that 64. For typical
|
||||
private keys this will not matter because for security reasons they will
|
||||
be much larger (typically 1024 bits).

=head1 SYNOPSIS
|

|

B<openssl> B<nseq>
|
||||
[B<-in filename>]
|

[B<-out filename>]
|
||||
[B<-toseq>]
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
||||
|
||||
The B<nseq> command takes a file containing a Netscape certificate
|
||||
sequence and prints out the certificates contained in it or takes a
|
||||
file of certificates and converts it into a Netscape certificate
|
||||
sequence.
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 COMMAND OPTIONS
|
||||
|
||||
=over 4
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-in filename>
|
||||
|
||||
This specifies the input filename to read or standard input if this
|
||||
option is not specified.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-out filename>
|
||||
|
||||
specifies the output filename or standard output by default.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-toseq>
|
||||
|
||||
normally a Netscape certificate sequence will be input and the output
|
||||
is the certificates contained in it. With the B<-toseq> option the
|
||||
situation is reversed: a Netscape certificate sequence is created from
|
||||
a file of certificates.
|
||||
|
||||
=back
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 EXAMPLES
|
||||
|
||||
Output the certificates in a Netscape certificate sequence
|
||||
|
||||
openssl nseq -in nseq.pem -out certs.pem
|
||||
|
||||
Create a Netscape certificate sequence
|
||||
|
||||
openssl nseq -in certs.pem -toseq -out nseq.pem
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 NOTES
|
||||
|
||||
The B<PEM> encoded form uses the same headers and footers as a certificate:
|
||||
|
||||
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
|
||||
-----END CERTIFICATE-----
|
||||
|
||||
A Netscape certificate sequence is a Netscape specific form that can be sent
|
||||
to browsers as an alternative to the standard PKCS#7 format when several
|
||||
certificates are sent to the browser: for example during certificate enrollment.
|
||||
It is used by Netscape certificate server for example.
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 BUGS
|
||||
|
||||
This program needs a few more options: like allowing DER or PEM input and
|
||||
output files and allowing multiple certificate files to be used.

=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
||||
|
||||
The Online Certificate Status Protocol (OCSP) enables applications to
|
||||
determine the (revocation) state of an identified certificate (RFC 2560).
|
||||
|
||||
The B<ocsp> command performs many common OCSP tasks. It can be used
|
||||
to print out requests and responses, create requests and send queries
|
||||
to an OCSP responder and behave like a mini OCSP server itself.
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 OCSP CLIENT OPTIONS
|
||||
|
||||
=over 4
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-out filename>
|
||||
|
||||
specify output filename, default is standard output.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-issuer filename>
|
||||
|
||||
This specifies the current issuer certificate. This option can be used
|
||||
multiple times. The certificate specified in B<filename> must be in
|
||||
PEM format. This option B<MUST> come before any B<-cert> options.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-cert filename>
|
||||
|
||||
Add the certificate B<filename> to the request. The issuer certificate
|
||||
is taken from the previous B<issuer> option, or an error occurs if no
|
||||
issuer certificate is specified.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-serial num>
|
||||
|
||||
Same as the B<cert> option except the certificate with serial number
|
||||
B<num> is added to the request. The serial number is interpreted as a
|
||||
decimal integer unless preceded by B<0x>. Negative integers can also
|
||||
be specified by preceding the value by a B<-> sign.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-signer filename>, B<-signkey filename>
|
||||
|
||||
Sign the OCSP request using the certificate specified in the B<signer>
|
||||
option and the private key specified by the B<signkey> option. If
|
||||
the B<signkey> option is not present then the private key is read
|
||||
from the same file as the certificate. If neither option is specified then
|
||||
the OCSP request is not signed.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-sign_other filename>
|
||||
|
||||
Additional certificates to include in the signed request.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-nonce>, B<-no_nonce>
|
||||
|
||||
Add an OCSP nonce extension to a request or disable OCSP nonce addition.
|
||||
Normally if an OCSP request is input using the B<respin> option no
|
||||
nonce is added: using the B<nonce> option will force addition of a nonce.
|
||||
If an OCSP request is being created (using B<cert> and B<serial> options)
|
||||
a nonce is automatically added specifying B<no_nonce> overrides this.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-req_text>, B<-resp_text>, B<-text>
|
||||
|
||||
print out the text form of the OCSP request, response or both respectively.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-reqout file>, B<-respout file>
|
||||
|
||||
write out the DER encoded certificate request or response to B<file>.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-reqin file>, B<-respin file>
|
||||
|
||||
read OCSP request or response file from B<file>. These option are ignored
|
||||
if OCSP request or response creation is implied by other options (for example
|
||||
with B<serial>, B<cert> and B<host> options).
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-url responder_url>
|
||||
|
||||
specify the responder URL. Both HTTP and HTTPS (SSL/TLS) URLs can be specified.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-host hostname:port>, B<-path pathname>
|
||||
|
||||
if the B<host> option is present then the OCSP request is sent to the host
|
||||
B<hostname> on port B<port>. B<path> specifies the HTTP path name to use
|
||||
or "/" by default.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-header name value>
|
||||
|
||||
If sending a request to an OCSP server, then the specified header name and
|
||||
value are added to the HTTP request. Note that the B<name> and B<value> must
|
||||
be specified as two separate parameters, not as a single quoted string, and
|
||||
that the header name does not have the trailing colon.
|
||||
Some OCSP responders require a Host header; use this flag to provide it.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-timeout seconds>
|
||||
|
||||
connection timeout to the OCSP responder in seconds
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-CAfile file>, B<-CApath pathname>
|
||||
|
||||
file or pathname containing trusted CA certificates. These are used to verify
|
||||
the signature on the OCSP response.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-no_alt_chains>
|
||||
|
||||
See L<B<verify>|verify(1)> manual page for details.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-verify_other file>
|
||||
|
||||
file containing additional certificates to search when attempting to locate
|
||||
the OCSP response signing certificate. Some responders omit the actual signer's
|
||||
certificate from the response: this option can be used to supply the necessary
|
||||
certificate in such cases.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-trust_other>
|
||||
|
||||
the certificates specified by the B<-verify_other> option should be explicitly
|
||||
trusted and no additional checks will be performed on them. This is useful
|
||||
when the complete responder certificate chain is not available or trusting a
|
||||
root CA is not appropriate.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-VAfile file>
|
||||
|
||||
file containing explicitly trusted responder certificates. Equivalent to the
|
||||
B<-verify_other> and B<-trust_other> options.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-noverify>
|
||||
|
||||
don't attempt to verify the OCSP response signature or the nonce values. This
|
||||
option will normally only be used for debugging since it disables all verification
|
||||
of the responders certificate.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-no_intern>
|
||||
|
||||
ignore certificates contained in the OCSP response when searching for the
|
||||
signers certificate. With this option the signers certificate must be specified
|
||||
with either the B<-verify_other> or B<-VAfile> options.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-no_signature_verify>
|
||||
|
||||
don't check the signature on the OCSP response. Since this option tolerates invalid
|
||||
signatures on OCSP responses it will normally only be used for testing purposes.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-no_cert_verify>
|
||||
|
||||
don't verify the OCSP response signers certificate at all. Since this option allows
|
||||
the OCSP response to be signed by any certificate it should only be used for
|
||||
testing purposes.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-no_chain>
|
||||
|
||||
do not use certificates in the response as additional untrusted CA
|
||||
certificates.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-no_explicit>
|
||||
|
||||
do not explicitly trust the root CA if it is set to be trusted for OCSP signing.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-no_cert_checks>
|
||||
|
||||
don't perform any additional checks on the OCSP response signers certificate.
|
||||
That is do not make any checks to see if the signers certificate is authorised
|
||||
to provide the necessary status information: as a result this option should
|
||||
only be used for testing purposes.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-validity_period nsec>, B<-status_age age>
|
||||
|
||||
these options specify the range of times, in seconds, which will be tolerated
|
||||
in an OCSP response. Each certificate status response includes a B<notBefore> time and
|
||||
an optional B<notAfter> time. The current time should fall between these two values, but
|
||||
the interval between the two times may be only a few seconds. In practice the OCSP
|
||||
responder and clients clocks may not be precisely synchronised and so such a check
|
||||
may fail. To avoid this the B<-validity_period> option can be used to specify an
|
||||
acceptable error range in seconds, the default value is 5 minutes.
|
||||
|
||||
If the B<notAfter> time is omitted from a response then this means that new status
|
||||
information is immediately available. In this case the age of the B<notBefore> field
|
||||
is checked to see it is not older than B<age> seconds old. By default this additional
|
||||
check is not performed.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-md5|-sha1|-sha256|-ripemod160|...>
|
||||
|
||||
this option sets digest algorithm to use for certificate identification
|
||||
in the OCSP request. By default SHA-1 is used.

|
||||
|
||||
=over 4
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-index indexfile>
|
||||
|
||||
B<indexfile> is a text index file in B<ca> format containing certificate revocation
|
||||
information.
|
||||
|
||||
If the B<index> option is specified the B<ocsp> utility is in responder mode, otherwise
|
||||
it is in client mode. The request(s) the responder processes can be either specified on
|
||||
the command line (using B<issuer> and B<serial> options), supplied in a file (using the
|
||||
B<respin> option) or via external OCSP clients (if B<port> or B<url> is specified).
|
||||
|
||||
If the B<index> option is present then the B<CA> and B<rsigner> options must also be
|
||||
present.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-CA file>
|
||||
|
||||
CA certificate corresponding to the revocation information in B<indexfile>.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-rsigner file>
|
||||
|
||||
The certificate to sign OCSP responses with.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-rother file>
|
||||
|
||||
Additional certificates to include in the OCSP response.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-resp_no_certs>
|
||||
|
||||
Don't include any certificates in the OCSP response.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-resp_key_id>
|
||||
|
||||
Identify the signer certificate using the key ID, default is to use the subject name.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-rkey file>
|
||||
|
||||
The private key to sign OCSP responses with: if not present the file specified in the
|
||||
B<rsigner> option is used.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-port portnum>
|
||||
|
||||
Port to listen for OCSP requests on. The port may also be specified using the B<url>
|
||||
option.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-nrequest number>
|
||||
|
||||
The OCSP server will exit after receiving B<number> requests, default unlimited.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-nmin minutes>, B<-ndays days>
|
||||
|
||||
Number of minutes or days when fresh revocation information is available: used in the
|
||||
B<nextUpdate> field. If neither option is present then the B<nextUpdate> field is
|
||||
omitted meaning fresh revocation information is immediately available.
|
||||
|
||||
=back
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 OCSP Response verification.
|
||||
|
||||
OCSP Response follows the rules specified in RFC2560.
|
||||
|
||||
Initially the OCSP responder certificate is located and the signature on
|
||||
the OCSP request checked using the responder certificate's public key.
|
||||
|
||||
Then a normal certificate verify is performed on the OCSP responder certificate
|
||||
building up a certificate chain in the process. The locations of the trusted
|
||||
certificates used to build the chain can be specified by the B<CAfile>
|
||||
and B<CApath> options or they will be looked for in the standard OpenSSL
|
||||
certificates directory.
|
||||
|
||||
If the initial verify fails then the OCSP verify process halts with an
|
||||
error.
|
||||
|
||||
Otherwise the issuing CA certificate in the request is compared to the OCSP
|
||||
responder certificate: if there is a match then the OCSP verify succeeds.
|
||||
|
||||
Otherwise the OCSP responder certificate's CA is checked against the issuing
|
||||
CA certificate in the request. If there is a match and the OCSPSigning
|
||||
extended key usage is present in the OCSP responder certificate then the
|
||||
OCSP verify succeeds.
|
||||
|
||||
Otherwise, if B<-no_explicit> is B<not> set the root CA of the OCSP responders
|
||||
CA is checked to see if it is trusted for OCSP signing. If it is the OCSP
|
||||
verify succeeds.
|
||||
|
||||
If none of these checks is successful then the OCSP verify fails.
|
||||
|
||||
What this effectively means if that if the OCSP responder certificate is
|
||||
authorised directly by the CA it is issuing revocation information about
|
||||
(and it is correctly configured) then verification will succeed.
|
||||
|
||||
If the OCSP responder is a "global responder" which can give details about
|
||||
multiple CAs and has its own separate certificate chain then its root
|
||||
CA can be trusted for OCSP signing. For example:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl x509 -in ocspCA.pem -addtrust OCSPSigning -out trustedCA.pem
|
||||
|
||||
Alternatively the responder certificate itself can be explicitly trusted
|
||||
with the B<-VAfile> option.
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 NOTES
|
||||
|
||||
As noted, most of the verify options are for testing or debugging purposes.
|
||||
Normally only the B<-CApath>, B<-CAfile> and (if the responder is a 'global
|
||||
VA') B<-VAfile> options need to be used.
|
||||
|
||||
The OCSP server is only useful for test and demonstration purposes: it is
|
||||
not really usable as a full OCSP responder. It contains only a very
|
||||
simple HTTP request handling and can only handle the POST form of OCSP
|
||||
queries. It also handles requests serially meaning it cannot respond to
|
||||
new requests until it has processed the current one. The text index file
|
||||
format of revocation is also inefficient for large quantities of revocation
|
||||
data.
|
||||
|
||||
It is possible to run the B<ocsp> application in responder mode via a CGI
|
||||
script using the B<respin> and B<respout> options.
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 EXAMPLES
|
||||
|
||||
Create an OCSP request and write it to a file:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl ocsp -issuer issuer.pem -cert c1.pem -cert c2.pem -reqout req.der
|
||||
|
||||
Send a query to an OCSP responder with URL http://ocsp.myhost.com/ save the
|
||||
response to a file and print it out in text form
|
||||
|
||||
openssl ocsp -issuer issuer.pem -cert c1.pem -cert c2.pem \
|
||||
-url http://ocsp.myhost.com/ -resp_text -respout resp.der
|
||||
|
||||
Read in an OCSP response and print out text form:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl ocsp -respin resp.der -text
|
||||
|
||||
OCSP server on port 8888 using a standard B<ca> configuration, and a separate
|
||||
responder certificate. All requests and responses are printed to a file.
|
||||
|
||||
openssl ocsp -index demoCA/index.txt -port 8888 -rsigner rcert.pem -CA demoCA/cacert.pem
|
||||
-text -out log.txt
|
||||
|
||||
As above but exit after processing one request:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl ocsp -index demoCA/index.txt -port 8888 -rsigner rcert.pem -CA demoCA/cacert.pem
|
||||
-nrequest 1
|
||||
|
||||
Query status information using internally generated request:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl ocsp -index demoCA/index.txt -rsigner rcert.pem -CA demoCA/cacert.pem
|
||||
-issuer demoCA/cacert.pem -serial 1
|
||||
|
||||
Query status information using request read from a file, write response to a
|
||||
second file.
|
||||
|
||||
openssl ocsp -index demoCA/index.txt -rsigner rcert.pem -CA demoCA/cacert.pem
|
||||
-reqin req.der -respout resp.der

B<openssl> B<no->I<XXX> [ I<arbitrary options> ]
|

=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
||||
|
||||
OpenSSL is a cryptography toolkit implementing the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL
|
||||
v2/v3) and Transport Layer Security (TLS v1) network protocols and related
|
||||
cryptography standards required by them.
|
||||
|
||||
The B<openssl> program is a command line tool for using the various
|
||||
cryptography functions of OpenSSL's B<crypto> library from the shell.
|
||||
It can be used for
|
||||
|
||||
o Creation and management of private keys, public keys and parameters
|
||||
o Public key cryptographic operations
|
||||
o Creation of X.509 certificates, CSRs and CRLs
|
||||
o Calculation of Message Digests
|
||||
o Encryption and Decryption with Ciphers
|
||||
o SSL/TLS Client and Server Tests
|
||||
o Handling of S/MIME signed or encrypted mail
|
||||
o Time Stamp requests, generation and verification
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 COMMAND SUMMARY
|
||||
|
||||
The B<openssl> program provides a rich variety of commands (I<command> in the
|
||||
SYNOPSIS above), each of which often has a wealth of options and arguments
|
||||
(I<command_opts> and I<command_args> in the SYNOPSIS).
|
||||
|
||||
The pseudo-commands B<list-standard-commands>, B<list-message-digest-commands>,
|
||||
and B<list-cipher-commands> output a list (one entry per line) of the names
|
||||
of all standard commands, message digest commands, or cipher commands,
|
||||
respectively, that are available in the present B<openssl> utility.
|
||||
|
||||
The pseudo-commands B<list-cipher-algorithms> and
|
||||
B<list-message-digest-algorithms> list all cipher and message digest names, one entry per line. Aliases are listed as:
|
||||
|
||||
from => to
|
||||
|
||||
The pseudo-command B<list-public-key-algorithms> lists all supported public
|
||||
key algorithms.
|
||||
|
||||
The pseudo-command B<no->I<XXX> tests whether a command of the
|
||||
specified name is available. If no command named I<XXX> exists, it
|
||||
returns 0 (success) and prints B<no->I<XXX>; otherwise it returns 1
|
||||
and prints I<XXX>. In both cases, the output goes to B<stdout> and
|
||||
nothing is printed to B<stderr>. Additional command line arguments
|
||||
are always ignored. Since for each cipher there is a command of the
|
||||
same name, this provides an easy way for shell scripts to test for the
|
||||
availability of ciphers in the B<openssl> program. (B<no->I<XXX> is
|
||||
not able to detect pseudo-commands such as B<quit>,
|
||||
B<list->I<...>B<-commands>, or B<no->I<XXX> itself.)

=head1 PASS PHRASE ARGUMENTS
|
||||
|
||||
Several commands accept password arguments, typically using B<-passin>
|
||||
and B<-passout> for input and output passwords respectively. These allow
|
||||
the password to be obtained from a variety of sources. Both of these
|
||||
options take a single argument whose format is described below. If no
|
||||
password argument is given and a password is required then the user is
|
||||
prompted to enter one: this will typically be read from the current
|
||||
terminal with echoing turned off.
|
||||
|
||||
=over 10
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<pass:password>
|
||||
|
||||
the actual password is B<password>. Since the password is visible
|
||||
to utilities (like 'ps' under Unix) this form should only be used
|
||||
where security is not important.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<env:var>
|
||||
|
||||
obtain the password from the environment variable B<var>. Since
|
||||
the environment of other processes is visible on certain platforms
|
||||
(e.g. ps under certain Unix OSes) this option should be used with caution.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<file:pathname>
|
||||
|
||||
the first line of B<pathname> is the password. If the same B<pathname>
|
||||
argument is supplied to B<-passin> and B<-passout> arguments then the first
|
||||
line will be used for the input password and the next line for the output
|
||||
password. B<pathname> need not refer to a regular file: it could for example
|
||||
refer to a device or named pipe.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<fd:number>
|
||||
|
||||
read the password from the file descriptor B<number>. This can be used to
|
||||
send the data via a pipe for example.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<stdin>
|
||||
|
||||
read the password from standard input.

=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
||||
|
||||
The B<passwd> command computes the hash of a password typed at
|
||||
run-time or the hash of each password in a list. The password list is
|
||||
taken from the named file for option B<-in file>, from stdin for
|
||||
option B<-stdin>, or from the command line, or from the terminal otherwise.
|
||||
The Unix standard algorithm B<crypt> and the MD5-based BSD password
|
||||
algorithm B<1> and its Apache variant B<apr1> are available.

=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
||||
|
||||
The B<pkcs12> command allows PKCS#12 files (sometimes referred to as
|
||||
PFX files) to be created and parsed. PKCS#12 files are used by several
|
||||
programs including Netscape, MSIE and MS Outlook.
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 COMMAND OPTIONS
|
||||
|
||||
There are a lot of options the meaning of some depends of whether a PKCS#12 file
|
||||
is being created or parsed. By default a PKCS#12 file is parsed. A PKCS#12
|
||||
file can be created by using the B<-export> option (see below).
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 PARSING OPTIONS
|
||||
|
||||
=over 4
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-in filename>
|
||||
|
||||
This specifies filename of the PKCS#12 file to be parsed. Standard input is used
|
||||
by default.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-out filename>
|
||||
|
||||
The filename to write certificates and private keys to, standard output by
|
||||
default. They are all written in PEM format.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-passin arg>
|
||||
|
||||
the PKCS#12 file (i.e. input file) password source. For more information about
|
||||
the format of B<arg> see the B<PASS PHRASE ARGUMENTS> section in
|
||||
L<openssl(1)|openssl(1)>.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-passout arg>
|
||||
|
||||
pass phrase source to encrypt any outputted private keys with. For more
|
||||
information about the format of B<arg> see the B<PASS PHRASE ARGUMENTS> section
|
||||
in L<openssl(1)|openssl(1)>.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-password arg>
|
||||
|
||||
With -export, -password is equivalent to -passout.
|
||||
Otherwise, -password is equivalent to -passin.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-noout>
|
||||
|
||||
this option inhibits output of the keys and certificates to the output file
|
||||
version of the PKCS#12 file.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-clcerts>
|
||||
|
||||
only output client certificates (not CA certificates).
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-cacerts>
|
||||
|
||||
only output CA certificates (not client certificates).
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-nocerts>
|
||||
|
||||
no certificates at all will be output.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-nokeys>
|
||||
|
||||
no private keys will be output.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-info>
|
||||
|
||||
output additional information about the PKCS#12 file structure, algorithms used and
|
||||
iteration counts.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-des>
|
||||
|
||||
use DES to encrypt private keys before outputting.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-des3>
|
||||
|
||||
use triple DES to encrypt private keys before outputting, this is the default.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-idea>
|
||||
|
||||
use IDEA to encrypt private keys before outputting.
|
||||

=item B<-twopass>
|

=head1 FILE CREATION OPTIONS
|
||||
|
||||
=over 4
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-export>
|
||||
|
||||
This option specifies that a PKCS#12 file will be created rather than
|
||||
parsed.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-out filename>
|
||||
|
||||
This specifies filename to write the PKCS#12 file to. Standard output is used
|
||||
by default.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-in filename>
|
||||
|
||||
The filename to read certificates and private keys from, standard input by
|
||||
default. They must all be in PEM format. The order doesn't matter but one
|
||||
private key and its corresponding certificate should be present. If additional
|
||||
certificates are present they will also be included in the PKCS#12 file.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-inkey filename>
|
||||
|
||||
file to read private key from. If not present then a private key must be present
|
||||
in the input file.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-name friendlyname>
|
||||
|
||||
This specifies the "friendly name" for the certificate and private key. This
|
||||
name is typically displayed in list boxes by software importing the file.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-certfile filename>
|
||||
|
||||
A filename to read additional certificates from.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-caname friendlyname>
|
||||
|
||||
This specifies the "friendly name" for other certificates. This option may be
|
||||
used multiple times to specify names for all certificates in the order they
|
||||
appear. Netscape ignores friendly names on other certificates whereas MSIE
|
||||
displays them.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-pass arg>, B<-passout arg>
|
||||
|
||||
the PKCS#12 file (i.e. output file) password source. For more information about
|
||||
the format of B<arg> see the B<PASS PHRASE ARGUMENTS> section in
|
||||
L<openssl(1)|openssl(1)>.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-passin password>
|
||||
|
||||
pass phrase source to decrypt any input private keys with. For more information
|
||||
about the format of B<arg> see the B<PASS PHRASE ARGUMENTS> section in
|
||||
L<openssl(1)|openssl(1)>.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-chain>
|
||||
|
||||
if this option is present then an attempt is made to include the entire
|
||||
certificate chain of the user certificate. The standard CA store is used
|
||||
for this search. If the search fails it is considered a fatal error.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-descert>
|
||||
|
||||
encrypt the certificate using triple DES, this may render the PKCS#12
|
||||
file unreadable by some "export grade" software. By default the private
|
||||
key is encrypted using triple DES and the certificate using 40 bit RC2.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-keypbe alg>, B<-certpbe alg>
|
||||
|
||||
these options allow the algorithm used to encrypt the private key and
|
||||
certificates to be selected. Any PKCS#5 v1.5 or PKCS#12 PBE algorithm name
|
||||
can be used (see B<NOTES> section for more information). If a cipher name
|
||||
(as output by the B<list-cipher-algorithms> command is specified then it
|
||||
is used with PKCS#5 v2.0. For interoperability reasons it is advisable to only
|
||||
use PKCS#12 algorithms.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-keyex|-keysig>
|
||||
|
||||
specifies that the private key is to be used for key exchange or just signing.
|
||||
This option is only interpreted by MSIE and similar MS software. Normally
|
||||
"export grade" software will only allow 512 bit RSA keys to be used for
|
||||
encryption purposes but arbitrary length keys for signing. The B<-keysig>
|
||||
option marks the key for signing only. Signing only keys can be used for
|
||||
S/MIME signing, authenticode (ActiveX control signing) and SSL client
|
||||
authentication, however due to a bug only MSIE 5.0 and later support
|
||||
the use of signing only keys for SSL client authentication.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-macalg digest>
|
||||
|
||||
specify the MAC digest algorithm. If not included them SHA1 will be used.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-nomaciter>, B<-noiter>
|
||||
|
||||
these options affect the iteration counts on the MAC and key algorithms.
|
||||
Unless you wish to produce files compatible with MSIE 4.0 you should leave
|
||||
these options alone.
|
||||
|
||||
To discourage attacks by using large dictionaries of common passwords the
|
||||
algorithm that derives keys from passwords can have an iteration count applied
|
||||
to it: this causes a certain part of the algorithm to be repeated and slows it
|
||||
down. The MAC is used to check the file integrity but since it will normally
|
||||
have the same password as the keys and certificates it could also be attacked.
|
||||
By default both MAC and encryption iteration counts are set to 2048, using
|
||||
these options the MAC and encryption iteration counts can be set to 1, since
|
||||
this reduces the file security you should not use these options unless you
|
||||
really have to. Most software supports both MAC and key iteration counts.
|
||||
MSIE 4.0 doesn't support MAC iteration counts so it needs the B<-nomaciter>
|
||||
option.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-maciter>
|
||||
|
||||
This option is included for compatibility with previous versions, it used
|
||||
to be needed to use MAC iterations counts but they are now used by default.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-nomac>
|
||||
|
||||
don't attempt to provide the MAC integrity.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-rand file(s)>
|
||||
|
||||
a file or files containing random data used to seed the random number
|
||||
generator, or an EGD socket (see L<RAND_egd(3)|RAND_egd(3)>).
|
||||
Multiple files can be specified separated by a OS-dependent character.
|
||||
The separator is B<;> for MS-Windows, B<,> for OpenVMS, and B<:> for
|
||||
all others.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-CAfile file>
|
||||
|
||||
CA storage as a file.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-CApath dir>
|
||||
|
||||
CA storage as a directory. This directory must be a standard certificate
|
||||
directory: that is a hash of each subject name (using B<x509 -hash>) should be
|
||||
linked to each certificate.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-CSP name>
|
||||
|
||||
write B<name> as a Microsoft CSP name.
|
||||

|

|

=head1 NOTES
|
||||
|
||||
Although there are a large number of options most of them are very rarely
|
||||
used. For PKCS#12 file parsing only B<-in> and B<-out> need to be used
|
||||
for PKCS#12 file creation B<-export> and B<-name> are also used.
|
||||
|
||||
If none of the B<-clcerts>, B<-cacerts> or B<-nocerts> options are present
|
||||
then all certificates will be output in the order they appear in the input
|
||||
PKCS#12 files. There is no guarantee that the first certificate present is
|
||||
the one corresponding to the private key. Certain software which requires
|
||||
a private key and certificate and assumes the first certificate in the
|
||||
file is the one corresponding to the private key: this may not always
|
||||
be the case. Using the B<-clcerts> option will solve this problem by only
|
||||
outputting the certificate corresponding to the private key. If the CA
|
||||
certificates are required then they can be output to a separate file using
|
||||
the B<-nokeys -cacerts> options to just output CA certificates.
|
||||
|
||||
The B<-keypbe> and B<-certpbe> algorithms allow the precise encryption
|
||||
algorithms for private keys and certificates to be specified. Normally
|
||||
the defaults are fine but occasionally software can't handle triple DES
|
||||
encrypted private keys, then the option B<-keypbe PBE-SHA1-RC2-40> can
|
||||
be used to reduce the private key encryption to 40 bit RC2. A complete
|
||||
description of all algorithms is contained in the B<pkcs8> manual page.
|

=head1 EXAMPLES
|
||||
|
||||
Parse a PKCS#12 file and output it to a file:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl pkcs12 -in file.p12 -out file.pem
|
||||
|
||||
Output only client certificates to a file:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl pkcs12 -in file.p12 -clcerts -out file.pem
|
||||
|
||||
Don't encrypt the private key:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl pkcs12 -in file.p12 -out file.pem -nodes
|
||||
|
||||
Print some info about a PKCS#12 file:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl pkcs12 -in file.p12 -info -noout
|
||||
|
||||
Create a PKCS#12 file:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl pkcs12 -export -in file.pem -out file.p12 -name "My Certificate"
|
||||
|
||||
Include some extra certificates:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl pkcs12 -export -in file.pem -out file.p12 -name "My Certificate" \
|
||||
-certfile othercerts.pem
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 BUGS
|
||||
|
||||
Some would argue that the PKCS#12 standard is one big bug :-)
|
||||
|
||||
Versions of OpenSSL before 0.9.6a had a bug in the PKCS#12 key generation
|
||||
routines. Under rare circumstances this could produce a PKCS#12 file encrypted
|
||||
with an invalid key. As a result some PKCS#12 files which triggered this bug
|
||||
from other implementations (MSIE or Netscape) could not be decrypted
|
||||
by OpenSSL and similarly OpenSSL could produce PKCS#12 files which could
|
||||
not be decrypted by other implementations. The chances of producing such
|
||||
a file are relatively small: less than 1 in 256.
|
||||
|
||||
A side effect of fixing this bug is that any old invalidly encrypted PKCS#12
|
||||
files cannot no longer be parsed by the fixed version. Under such circumstances
|
||||
the B<pkcs12> utility will report that the MAC is OK but fail with a decryption
|
||||
error when extracting private keys.
|
||||
|
||||
This problem can be resolved by extracting the private keys and certificates
|
||||
from the PKCS#12 file using an older version of OpenSSL and recreating the PKCS#12
|
||||
file from the keys and certificates using a newer version of OpenSSL. For example:
|
||||
|
||||
old-openssl -in bad.p12 -out keycerts.pem
|
||||
openssl -in keycerts.pem -export -name "My PKCS#12 file" -out fixed.p12

preceded by their subject and issuer names in one line format.
|
||||
|

=head1 RESTRICTIONS
|
||||
|

=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
||||
|
||||
The B<pkcs8> command processes private keys in PKCS#8 format. It can handle
|
||||
both unencrypted PKCS#8 PrivateKeyInfo format and EncryptedPrivateKeyInfo
|
||||
format with a variety of PKCS#5 (v1.5 and v2.0) and PKCS#12 algorithms.
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 COMMAND OPTIONS
|
||||
|
||||
=over 4
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-topk8>
|
||||
|
||||
Normally a PKCS#8 private key is expected on input and a traditional format
|
||||
private key will be written. With the B<-topk8> option the situation is
|
||||
reversed: it reads a traditional format private key and writes a PKCS#8
|
||||
format key.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-inform DER|PEM>
|
||||
|
||||
This specifies the input format. If a PKCS#8 format key is expected on input
|
||||
then either a B<DER> or B<PEM> encoded version of a PKCS#8 key will be
|
||||
expected. Otherwise the B<DER> or B<PEM> format of the traditional format
|
||||
private key is used.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-outform DER|PEM>
|
||||
|
||||
This specifies the output format, the options have the same meaning as the
|
||||
B<-inform> option.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-in filename>
|
||||
|
||||
This specifies the input filename to read a key from or standard input if this
|
||||
option is not specified. If the key is encrypted a pass phrase will be
|
||||
prompted for.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-passin arg>
|
||||
|
||||
the input file password source. For more information about the format of B<arg>
|
||||
see the B<PASS PHRASE ARGUMENTS> section in L<openssl(1)|openssl(1)>.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-out filename>
|
||||
|
||||
This specifies the output filename to write a key to or standard output by
|
||||
default. If any encryption options are set then a pass phrase will be
|
||||
prompted for. The output filename should B<not> be the same as the input
|
||||
filename.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-passout arg>
|
||||
|
||||
the output file password source. For more information about the format of B<arg>
|
||||
see the B<PASS PHRASE ARGUMENTS> section in L<openssl(1)|openssl(1)>.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-nocrypt>
|
||||
|
||||
PKCS#8 keys generated or input are normally PKCS#8 EncryptedPrivateKeyInfo
|
||||
structures using an appropriate password based encryption algorithm. With
|
||||
this option an unencrypted PrivateKeyInfo structure is expected or output.
|
||||
This option does not encrypt private keys at all and should only be used
|
||||
when absolutely necessary. Certain software such as some versions of Java
|
||||
code signing software used unencrypted private keys.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-nooct>
|
||||
|
||||
This option generates RSA private keys in a broken format that some software
|
||||
uses. Specifically the private key should be enclosed in a OCTET STRING
|
||||
but some software just includes the structure itself without the
|
||||
surrounding OCTET STRING.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-embed>
|
||||
|
||||
This option generates DSA keys in a broken format. The DSA parameters are
|
||||
embedded inside the PrivateKey structure. In this form the OCTET STRING
|
||||
contains an ASN1 SEQUENCE consisting of two structures: a SEQUENCE containing
|
||||
the parameters and an ASN1 INTEGER containing the private key.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-nsdb>
|
||||
|
||||
This option generates DSA keys in a broken format compatible with Netscape
|
||||
private key databases. The PrivateKey contains a SEQUENCE consisting of
|
||||
the public and private keys respectively.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-v2 alg>
|
||||
|
||||
This option enables the use of PKCS#5 v2.0 algorithms. Normally PKCS#8
|
||||
private keys are encrypted with the password based encryption algorithm
|
||||
called B<pbeWithMD5AndDES-CBC> this uses 56 bit DES encryption but it
|
||||
was the strongest encryption algorithm supported in PKCS#5 v1.5. Using
|
||||
the B<-v2> option PKCS#5 v2.0 algorithms are used which can use any
|
||||
encryption algorithm such as 168 bit triple DES or 128 bit RC2 however
|
||||
not many implementations support PKCS#5 v2.0 yet. If you are just using
|
||||
private keys with OpenSSL then this doesn't matter.
|
||||
|
||||
The B<alg> argument is the encryption algorithm to use, valid values include
|
||||
B<des>, B<des3> and B<rc2>. It is recommended that B<des3> is used.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-v2prf alg>
|
||||
|
||||
This option sets the PRF algorithm to use with PKCS#5 v2.0. A typical value
|
||||
values would be B<hmacWithSHA256>. If this option isn't set then the default
|
||||
for the cipher is used or B<hmacWithSHA1> if there is no default.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-v1 alg>
|
||||
|
||||
This option specifies a PKCS#5 v1.5 or PKCS#12 algorithm to use. A complete
|
||||
list of possible algorithms is included below.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-engine id>
|
||||
|
||||
specifying an engine (by its unique B<id> string) will cause B<pkcs8>
|
||||
to attempt to obtain a functional reference to the specified engine,
|
||||
thus initialising it if needed. The engine will then be set as the default
|
||||
for all available algorithms.

The encrypted form of a PEM encode PKCS#8 files uses the following
|
||||
headers and footers:
|
||||
|
||||
-----BEGIN ENCRYPTED PRIVATE KEY-----
|
||||
-----END ENCRYPTED PRIVATE KEY-----
|
||||
|
||||
The unencrypted form uses:
|
||||
|
||||
-----BEGIN PRIVATE KEY-----
|
||||
-----END PRIVATE KEY-----
|
||||
|
||||
Private keys encrypted using PKCS#5 v2.0 algorithms and high iteration
|
||||
counts are more secure that those encrypted using the traditional
|
||||
SSLeay compatible formats. So if additional security is considered
|
||||
important the keys should be converted.
|
||||
|
||||
The default encryption is only 56 bits because this is the encryption
|
||||
that most current implementations of PKCS#8 will support.
|
||||
|
||||
Some software may use PKCS#12 password based encryption algorithms
|
||||
with PKCS#8 format private keys: these are handled automatically
|
||||
but there is no option to produce them.
|
||||
|
||||
It is possible to write out DER encoded encrypted private keys in
|
||||
PKCS#8 format because the encryption details are included at an ASN1
|
||||
level whereas the traditional format includes them at a PEM level.
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 PKCS#5 v1.5 and PKCS#12 algorithms.
|
||||
|
||||
Various algorithms can be used with the B<-v1> command line option,
|
||||
including PKCS#5 v1.5 and PKCS#12. These are described in more detail
|
||||
below.
|
||||
|
||||
=over 4
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<PBE-MD2-DES PBE-MD5-DES>
|
||||
|
||||
These algorithms were included in the original PKCS#5 v1.5 specification.
|
||||
They only offer 56 bits of protection since they both use DES.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<PBE-SHA1-RC2-64 PBE-MD2-RC2-64 PBE-MD5-RC2-64 PBE-SHA1-DES>
|
||||
|
||||
These algorithms are not mentioned in the original PKCS#5 v1.5 specification
|
||||
but they use the same key derivation algorithm and are supported by some
|
||||
software. They are mentioned in PKCS#5 v2.0. They use either 64 bit RC2 or
|
||||
56 bit DES.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<PBE-SHA1-RC4-128 PBE-SHA1-RC4-40 PBE-SHA1-3DES PBE-SHA1-2DES PBE-SHA1-RC2-128 PBE-SHA1-RC2-40>
|
||||
|
||||
These algorithms use the PKCS#12 password based encryption algorithm and
|
||||
allow strong encryption algorithms like triple DES or 128 bit RC2 to be used.

=head1 EXAMPLES
|
||||
|
||||
Convert a private from traditional to PKCS#5 v2.0 format using triple
|
||||
DES:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl pkcs8 -in key.pem -topk8 -v2 des3 -out enckey.pem
|
||||
|
||||
Convert a private from traditional to PKCS#5 v2.0 format using AES with
|
||||
256 bits in CBC mode and B<hmacWithSHA256> PRF:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl pkcs8 -in key.pem -topk8 -v2 aes-256-cbc -v2prf hmacWithSHA256 -out enckey.pem
|
||||
|
||||
Convert a private key to PKCS#8 using a PKCS#5 1.5 compatible algorithm
|
||||
(DES):
|
||||
|
||||
openssl pkcs8 -in key.pem -topk8 -out enckey.pem
|
||||
|
||||
Convert a private key to PKCS#8 using a PKCS#12 compatible algorithm
|
||||
(3DES):
|
||||
|
||||
openssl pkcs8 -in key.pem -topk8 -out enckey.pem -v1 PBE-SHA1-3DES
|
||||
|
||||
Read a DER unencrypted PKCS#8 format private key:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl pkcs8 -inform DER -nocrypt -in key.der -out key.pem
|
||||
|
||||
Convert a private key from any PKCS#8 format to traditional format:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl pkcs8 -in pk8.pem -out key.pem
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 STANDARDS
|
||||
|
||||
Test vectors from this PKCS#5 v2.0 implementation were posted to the
|
||||
pkcs-tng mailing list using triple DES, DES and RC2 with high iteration
|
||||
counts, several people confirmed that they could decrypt the private
|
||||
keys produced and Therefore it can be assumed that the PKCS#5 v2.0
|
||||
implementation is reasonably accurate at least as far as these
|
||||
algorithms are concerned.
|
||||
|
||||
The format of PKCS#8 DSA (and other) private keys is not well documented:
|
||||
it is hidden away in PKCS#11 v2.01, section 11.9. OpenSSL's default DSA
|
||||
PKCS#8 private key format complies with this standard.
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 BUGS
|
||||
|
||||
There should be an option that prints out the encryption algorithm
|
||||
in use and other details such as the iteration count.
|
||||
|
||||
PKCS#8 using triple DES and PKCS#5 v2.0 should be the default private
|
||||
key format for OpenSSL: for compatibility several of the utilities use
|
||||
the old format at present.

B<-inform> option.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-in filename>
|
||||
|
||||
This specifies the input filename to read a key from or standard input if this

||||
|
||||
=item B<-out filename>
|
||||
|
||||
This specifies the output filename to write a key to or standard output if this
|
||||
option is not specified. If any encryption options are set then a pass phrase

name accepted by EVP_get_cipherbyname() is acceptable such as B<des3>.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-text>
|

=item B<-noout>
|
||||
|
||||
do not output the encoded version of the key.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-pubin>
|
||||
|
||||
by default a private key is read from the input file: with this
|
||||
option a public key is read instead.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-pubout>
|
||||
|
||||
by default a private key is output: with this option a public
|
||||
key will be output instead. This option is automatically set if
|
||||
the input is a public key.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-engine id>
|
||||
|
||||
specifying an engine (by its unique B<id> string) will cause B<pkey>
|
||||
to attempt to obtain a functional reference to the specified engine,
|
||||
thus initialising it if needed. The engine will then be set as the default
|
||||
for all available algorithms.

B<-verifyrecover> option when an ASN1 structure is signed.
|
||||
|
||||
=back
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 NOTES
|
||||
|
||||
The operations and options supported vary according to the key algorithm
|
||||
and its implementation. The OpenSSL operations and options are indicated below.
|
||||
|
||||
Unless otherwise mentioned all algorithms support the B<digest:alg> option
|
||||
which specifies the digest in use for sign, verify and verifyrecover operations.
|
||||
The value B<alg> should represent a digest name as used in the
|
||||
EVP_get_digestbyname() function for example B<sha1>.
|
||||
This value is used only for sanity-checking the lengths of data passed in to
|
||||
the B<pkeyutl> and for creating the structures that make up the signature
|
||||
(e.g. B<DigestInfo> in RSASSA PKCS#1 v1.5 signatures).
|
||||
In case of RSA, ECDSA and DSA signatures, this utility
|
||||
will not perform hashing on input data but rather use the data directly as
|
||||
input of signature algorithm. Depending on key type, signature type and mode
|
||||
of padding, the maximum acceptable lengths of input data differ. In general,
|
||||
with RSA the signed data can't be longer than the key modulus, in case of ECDSA
|
||||
and DSA the data shouldn't be longer than field size, otherwise it will be
|
||||
silently truncated to field size.
|
||||
|
||||
In other words, if the value of digest is B<sha1> the input should be 20 bytes
|
||||
long binary encoding of SHA-1 hash function output.
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 RSA ALGORITHM
|
||||
|
||||
The RSA algorithm supports encrypt, decrypt, sign, verify and verifyrecover
|
||||
operations in general. Some padding modes only support some of these
|
||||
operations however.
|
||||
|
||||
=over 4
|
||||
|
||||
=item -B<rsa_padding_mode:mode>
|
||||
|
||||
This sets the RSA padding mode. Acceptable values for B<mode> are B<pkcs1> for
|
||||
PKCS#1 padding, B<sslv23> for SSLv23 padding, B<none> for no padding, B<oaep>
|
||||
for B<OAEP> mode, B<x931> for X9.31 mode and B<pss> for PSS.
|
||||
|
||||
In PKCS#1 padding if the message digest is not set then the supplied data is
|
||||
signed or verified directly instead of using a B<DigestInfo> structure. If a
|
||||
digest is set then the a B<DigestInfo> structure is used and its the length
|
||||
must correspond to the digest type.
|
||||
|
||||
For B<oeap> mode only encryption and decryption is supported.
|
||||
|
||||
For B<x931> if the digest type is set it is used to format the block data
|
||||
otherwise the first byte is used to specify the X9.31 digest ID. Sign,
|
||||
verify and verifyrecover are can be performed in this mode.
|
||||
|
||||
For B<pss> mode only sign and verify are supported and the digest type must be
|
||||
specified.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<rsa_pss_saltlen:len>
|
||||
|
||||
For B<pss> mode only this option specifies the salt length. Two special values
|
||||
are supported: -1 sets the salt length to the digest length. When signing -2
|
||||
sets the salt length to the maximum permissible value. When verifying -2 causes
|
||||
the salt length to be automatically determined based on the B<PSS> block
|
||||
structure.
|
||||
|
||||
=back
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 DSA ALGORITHM
|
||||
|
||||
The DSA algorithm supports signing and verification operations only. Currently
|
||||
there are no additional options other than B<digest>. Only the SHA1
|
||||
digest can be used and this digest is assumed by default.
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 DH ALGORITHM
|
||||
|
||||
The DH algorithm only supports the derivation operation and no additional
|
||||
options.
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 EC ALGORITHM
|
||||
|
||||
The EC algorithm supports sign, verify and derive operations. The sign and
|
||||
verify operations use ECDSA and derive uses ECDH. Currently there are no
|
||||
additional options other than B<digest>. Only the SHA1 digest can be used and
|
||||
this digest is assumed by default.
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 EXAMPLES
|
||||
|
||||
Sign some data using a private key:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl pkeyutl -sign -in file -inkey key.pem -out sig
|
||||
|
||||
Recover the signed data (e.g. if an RSA key is used):
|
||||
|
||||
openssl pkeyutl -verifyrecover -in sig -inkey key.pem
|
||||
|
||||
Verify the signature (e.g. a DSA key):
|
||||
|
||||
openssl pkeyutl -verify -in file -sigfile sig -inkey key.pem
|
||||
|
||||
Sign data using a message digest value (this is currently only valid for RSA):
|
||||
|
||||
openssl pkeyutl -sign -in file -inkey key.pem -out sig -pkeyopt digest:sha256
|
||||
|
||||
Derive a shared secret value:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl pkeyutl -derive -inkey key.pem -peerkey pubkey.pem -out secret

rand - generate pseudo-random bytes
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 SYNOPSIS
|
||||
|
||||
B<openssl rand>
|
||||
[B<-out> I<file>]
|
||||
[B<-rand> I<file(s)>]
|

|
||||
|
||||
=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
||||
|
||||
The B<rand> command outputs I<num> pseudo-random bytes after seeding
|
||||
the random number generator once. As in other B<openssl> command
|
||||
line tools, PRNG seeding uses the file I<$HOME/>B<.rnd> or B<.rnd>
|
||||
in addition to the files given in the B<-rand> option. A new
|
||||
I<$HOME>/B<.rnd> or B<.rnd> file will be written back if enough
|
||||
seeding was obtained from these sources.
|
||||
|
||||

=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
||||
|
||||
The B<req> command primarily creates and processes certificate requests
|
||||
in PKCS#10 format. It can additionally create self signed certificates
|
||||
for use as root CAs for example.
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 COMMAND OPTIONS
|
||||
|
||||
=over 4
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-inform DER|PEM>
|
||||
|
||||
This specifies the input format. The B<DER> option uses an ASN1 DER encoded
|
||||
form compatible with the PKCS#10. The B<PEM> form is the default format: it
|
||||
consists of the B<DER> format base64 encoded with additional header and
|
||||
footer lines.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-outform DER|PEM>
|
||||
|
||||
This specifies the output format, the options have the same meaning as the
|
||||
B<-inform> option.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-in filename>
|
||||
|
||||
This specifies the input filename to read a request from or standard input
|
||||
if this option is not specified. A request is only read if the creation
|
||||
options (B<-new> and B<-newkey>) are not specified.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-passin arg>
|
||||
|
||||
the input file password source. For more information about the format of B<arg>
|
||||
see the B<PASS PHRASE ARGUMENTS> section in L<openssl(1)|openssl(1)>.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-out filename>
|
||||
|
||||
This specifies the output filename to write to or standard output by
|
||||
default.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-passout arg>
|
||||
|
||||
the output file password source. For more information about the format of B<arg>
|
||||
see the B<PASS PHRASE ARGUMENTS> section in L<openssl(1)|openssl(1)>.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-text>
|
||||
|
||||
prints out the certificate request in text form.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-subject>
|
||||
|
||||
prints out the request subject (or certificate subject if B<-x509> is
|
||||
specified)
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-pubkey>
|
||||
|
||||
outputs the public key.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-noout>
|
||||
|
||||
this option prevents output of the encoded version of the request.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-modulus>
|
||||
|
||||
this option prints out the value of the modulus of the public key
|
||||
contained in the request.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-verify>
|
||||
|
||||
verifies the signature on the request.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-new>
|
||||
|
||||
this option generates a new certificate request. It will prompt
|
||||
the user for the relevant field values. The actual fields
|
||||
prompted for and their maximum and minimum sizes are specified
|
||||
in the configuration file and any requested extensions.
|
||||
|
||||
If the B<-key> option is not used it will generate a new RSA private
|
||||
key using information specified in the configuration file.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-subj arg>
|
||||
|
||||
Replaces subject field of input request with specified data and outputs
|
||||
modified request. The arg must be formatted as
|
||||
I</type0=value0/type1=value1/type2=...>,
|
||||
characters may be escaped by \ (backslash), no spaces are skipped.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-rand file(s)>
|
||||
|
||||
a file or files containing random data used to seed the random number
|
||||
generator, or an EGD socket (see L<RAND_egd(3)|RAND_egd(3)>).
|
||||
Multiple files can be specified separated by a OS-dependent character.
|
||||
The separator is B<;> for MS-Windows, B<,> for OpenVMS, and B<:> for
|
||||
all others.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-newkey arg>
|
||||
|
||||
this option creates a new certificate request and a new private
|
||||
key. The argument takes one of several forms. B<rsa:nbits>, where
|
||||
B<nbits> is the number of bits, generates an RSA key B<nbits>
|
||||
in size. If B<nbits> is omitted, i.e. B<-newkey rsa> specified,
|
||||
the default key size, specified in the configuration file is used.
|
||||
|
||||
All other algorithms support the B<-newkey alg:file> form, where file may be
|
||||
an algorithm parameter file, created by the B<genpkey -genparam> command
|
||||
or and X.509 certificate for a key with approriate algorithm.
|
||||
|
||||
B<param:file> generates a key using the parameter file or certificate B<file>,
|
||||
the algorithm is determined by the parameters. B<algname:file> use algorithm
|
||||
B<algname> and parameter file B<file>: the two algorithms must match or an
|
||||
error occurs. B<algname> just uses algorithm B<algname>, and parameters,
|
||||
if neccessary should be specified via B<-pkeyopt> parameter.
|
||||
|
||||
B<dsa:filename> generates a DSA key using the parameters
|
||||
in the file B<filename>. B<ec:filename> generates EC key (usable both with
|
||||
ECDSA or ECDH algorithms), B<gost2001:filename> generates GOST R
|
||||
34.10-2001 key (requires B<ccgost> engine configured in the configuration
|
||||
file). If just B<gost2001> is specified a parameter set should be
|
||||
specified by B<-pkeyopt paramset:X>
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-pkeyopt opt:value>
|
||||
|
||||
set the public key algorithm option B<opt> to B<value>. The precise set of
|
||||
options supported depends on the public key algorithm used and its
|
||||
implementation. See B<KEY GENERATION OPTIONS> in the B<genpkey> manual page
|
||||
for more details.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-key filename>
|
||||
|
||||
This specifies the file to read the private key from. It also
|
||||
accepts PKCS#8 format private keys for PEM format files.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-keyform PEM|DER>
|
||||
|
||||
the format of the private key file specified in the B<-key>
|
||||
argument. PEM is the default.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-keyout filename>
|
||||
|
||||
this gives the filename to write the newly created private key to.
|
||||
If this option is not specified then the filename present in the
|
||||
configuration file is used.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-nodes>
|
||||
|
||||
if this option is specified then if a private key is created it
|
||||
will not be encrypted.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-[digest]>
|
||||
|
||||
this specifies the message digest to sign the request with (such as
|
||||
B<-md5>, B<-sha1>). This overrides the digest algorithm specified in
|
||||
the configuration file.
|
||||
|
||||
Some public key algorithms may override this choice. For instance, DSA
|
||||
signatures always use SHA1, GOST R 34.10 signatures always use
|
||||
GOST R 34.11-94 (B<-md_gost94>).
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-config filename>
|
||||
|
||||
this allows an alternative configuration file to be specified,
|
||||
this overrides the compile time filename or any specified in
|
||||
the B<OPENSSL_CONF> environment variable.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-subj arg>
|
||||
|
||||
sets subject name for new request or supersedes the subject name
|
||||
when processing a request.
|
||||
The arg must be formatted as I</type0=value0/type1=value1/type2=...>,
|
||||
characters may be escaped by \ (backslash), no spaces are skipped.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-multivalue-rdn>
|
||||
|
||||
this option causes the -subj argument to be interpreted with full
|
||||
support for multivalued RDNs. Example:
|
||||
|
||||
I</DC=org/DC=OpenSSL/DC=users/UID=123456+CN=John Doe>
|
||||
|
||||
If -multi-rdn is not used then the UID value is I<123456+CN=John Doe>.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-x509>
|
||||
|
||||
this option outputs a self signed certificate instead of a certificate
|
||||
request. This is typically used to generate a test certificate or
|
||||
a self signed root CA. The extensions added to the certificate
|
||||
(if any) are specified in the configuration file. Unless specified
|
||||
using the B<set_serial> option, a large random number will be used for
|
||||
the serial number.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-days n>
|
||||
|
||||
when the B<-x509> option is being used this specifies the number of
|
||||
days to certify the certificate for. The default is 30 days.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-set_serial n>
|
||||
|
||||
serial number to use when outputting a self signed certificate. This
|
||||
may be specified as a decimal value or a hex value if preceded by B<0x>.
|
||||
It is possible to use negative serial numbers but this is not recommended.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-extensions section>
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-reqexts section>
|
||||
|
||||
these options specify alternative sections to include certificate
|
||||
extensions (if the B<-x509> option is present) or certificate
|
||||
request extensions. This allows several different sections to
|
||||
be used in the same configuration file to specify requests for
|
||||
a variety of purposes.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-utf8>
|
||||
|
||||
this option causes field values to be interpreted as UTF8 strings, by
|
||||
default they are interpreted as ASCII. This means that the field
|
||||
values, whether prompted from a terminal or obtained from a
|
||||
configuration file, must be valid UTF8 strings.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-nameopt option>
|
||||
|
||||
option which determines how the subject or issuer names are displayed. The
|
||||
B<option> argument can be a single option or multiple options separated by
|
||||
commas. Alternatively the B<-nameopt> switch may be used more than once to
|
||||
set multiple options. See the L<x509(1)|x509(1)> manual page for details.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-reqopt>
|
||||
|
||||
customise the output format used with B<-text>. The B<option> argument can be
|
||||
a single option or multiple options separated by commas.
|
||||
|
||||
See discission of the B<-certopt> parameter in the L<B<x509>|x509(1)>
|
||||
command.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-asn1-kludge>
|
||||
|
||||
by default the B<req> command outputs certificate requests containing
|
||||
no attributes in the correct PKCS#10 format. However certain CAs will only
|
||||
accept requests containing no attributes in an invalid form: this
|
||||
option produces this invalid format.
|
||||
|
||||
More precisely the B<Attributes> in a PKCS#10 certificate request
|
||||
are defined as a B<SET OF Attribute>. They are B<not OPTIONAL> so
|
||||
if no attributes are present then they should be encoded as an
|
||||
empty B<SET OF>. The invalid form does not include the empty
|
||||
B<SET OF> whereas the correct form does.
|
||||
|
||||
It should be noted that very few CAs still require the use of this option.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-no-asn1-kludge>
|
||||
|
||||
Reverses effect of B<-asn1-kludge>
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-newhdr>
|
||||
|
||||
Adds the word B<NEW> to the PEM file header and footer lines on the outputted
|
||||
request. Some software (Netscape certificate server) and some CAs need this.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-batch>
|
||||
|
||||
non-interactive mode.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-verbose>
|
||||
|
||||
print extra details about the operations being performed.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-engine id>
|
||||
|
||||
specifying an engine (by its unique B<id> string) will cause B<req>
|
||||
to attempt to obtain a functional reference to the specified engine,
|
||||
thus initialising it if needed. The engine will then be set as the default
|
||||
for all available algorithms.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-keygen_engine id>
|
||||
|
||||
specifies an engine (by its unique B<id> string) which would be used
|
||||
for key generation operations.
|
||||
|
||||
=back
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 CONFIGURATION FILE FORMAT
|
||||
|
||||
The configuration options are specified in the B<req> section of
|
||||
the configuration file. As with all configuration files if no
|
||||
value is specified in the specific section (i.e. B<req>) then
|
||||
the initial unnamed or B<default> section is searched too.
|
||||
|
||||
The options available are described in detail below.
|
||||
|
||||
=over 4
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<input_password output_password>
|
||||
|
||||
The passwords for the input private key file (if present) and
|
||||
the output private key file (if one will be created). The
|
||||
command line options B<passin> and B<passout> override the
|
||||
configuration file values.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<default_bits>
|
||||
|
||||
Specifies the default key size in bits.
|
||||
|
||||
This option is used in conjunction with the B<-new> option to generate
|
||||
a new key. It can be overridden by specifying an explicit key size in
|
||||
the B<-newkey> option. The smallest accepted key size is 512 bits. If
|
||||
no key size is specified then 2048 bits is used.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<default_keyfile>
|
||||
|
||||
This is the default filename to write a private key to. If not
|
||||
specified the key is written to standard output. This can be
|
||||
overridden by the B<-keyout> option.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<oid_file>
|
||||
|
||||
This specifies a file containing additional B<OBJECT IDENTIFIERS>.
|
||||
Each line of the file should consist of the numerical form of the
|
||||
object identifier followed by white space then the short name followed
|
||||
by white space and finally the long name.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<oid_section>
|
||||
|
||||
This specifies a section in the configuration file containing extra
|
||||
object identifiers. Each line should consist of the short name of the
|
||||
object identifier followed by B<=> and the numerical form. The short
|
||||
and long names are the same when this option is used.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<RANDFILE>
|
||||
|
||||
This specifies a filename in which random number seed information is
|
||||
placed and read from, or an EGD socket (see L<RAND_egd(3)|RAND_egd(3)>).
|
||||
It is used for private key generation.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<encrypt_key>
|
||||
|
||||
If this is set to B<no> then if a private key is generated it is
|
||||
B<not> encrypted. This is equivalent to the B<-nodes> command line
|
||||
option. For compatibility B<encrypt_rsa_key> is an equivalent option.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<default_md>
|
||||
|
||||
This option specifies the digest algorithm to use. Possible values
|
||||
include B<md5 sha1 mdc2>. If not present then MD5 is used. This
|
||||
option can be overridden on the command line.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<string_mask>
|
||||
|
||||
This option masks out the use of certain string types in certain
|
||||
fields. Most users will not need to change this option.
|
||||
|
||||
It can be set to several values B<default> which is also the default
|
||||
option uses PrintableStrings, T61Strings and BMPStrings if the
|
||||
B<pkix> value is used then only PrintableStrings and BMPStrings will
|
||||
be used. This follows the PKIX recommendation in RFC2459. If the
|
||||
B<utf8only> option is used then only UTF8Strings will be used: this
|
||||
is the PKIX recommendation in RFC2459 after 2003. Finally the B<nombstr>
|
||||
option just uses PrintableStrings and T61Strings: certain software has
|
||||
problems with BMPStrings and UTF8Strings: in particular Netscape.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<req_extensions>
|
||||
|
||||
this specifies the configuration file section containing a list of
|
||||
extensions to add to the certificate request. It can be overridden
|
||||
by the B<-reqexts> command line switch. See the
|
||||
L<x509v3_config(5)|x509v3_config(5)> manual page for details of the
|
||||
extension section format.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<x509_extensions>
|
||||
|
||||
this specifies the configuration file section containing a list of
|
||||
extensions to add to certificate generated when the B<-x509> switch
|
||||
is used. It can be overridden by the B<-extensions> command line switch.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<prompt>
|
||||
|
||||
if set to the value B<no> this disables prompting of certificate fields
|
||||
and just takes values from the config file directly. It also changes the
|
||||
expected format of the B<distinguished_name> and B<attributes> sections.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<utf8>
|
||||
|
||||
if set to the value B<yes> then field values to be interpreted as UTF8
|
||||
strings, by default they are interpreted as ASCII. This means that
|
||||
the field values, whether prompted from a terminal or obtained from a
|
||||
configuration file, must be valid UTF8 strings.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<attributes>
|
||||
|
||||
this specifies the section containing any request attributes: its format
|
||||
is the same as B<distinguished_name>. Typically these may contain the
|
||||
challengePassword or unstructuredName types. They are currently ignored
|
||||
by OpenSSL's request signing utilities but some CAs might want them.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<distinguished_name>
|
||||
|
||||
This specifies the section containing the distinguished name fields to
|
||||
prompt for when generating a certificate or certificate request. The format
|
||||
is described in the next section.
|
||||
|
||||
=back
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 DISTINGUISHED NAME AND ATTRIBUTE SECTION FORMAT
|
||||
|
||||
There are two separate formats for the distinguished name and attribute
|
||||
sections. If the B<prompt> option is set to B<no> then these sections
|
||||
just consist of field names and values: for example,
|
||||
|
||||
CN=My Name
|
||||
OU=My Organization
|
||||
emailAddress=someone@somewhere.org
|
||||
|
||||
This allows external programs (e.g. GUI based) to generate a template file
|
||||
with all the field names and values and just pass it to B<req>. An example
|
||||
of this kind of configuration file is contained in the B<EXAMPLES> section.
|
||||
|
||||
Alternatively if the B<prompt> option is absent or not set to B<no> then the
|
||||
file contains field prompting information. It consists of lines of the form:
|
||||
|
||||
fieldName="prompt"
|
||||
fieldName_default="default field value"
|
||||
fieldName_min= 2
|
||||
fieldName_max= 4
|
||||
|
||||
"fieldName" is the field name being used, for example commonName (or CN).
|
||||
The "prompt" string is used to ask the user to enter the relevant
|
||||
details. If the user enters nothing then the default value is used if no
|
||||
default value is present then the field is omitted. A field can
|
||||
still be omitted if a default value is present if the user just
|
||||
enters the '.' character.
|
||||
|
||||
The number of characters entered must be between the fieldName_min and
|
||||
fieldName_max limits: there may be additional restrictions based
|
||||
on the field being used (for example countryName can only ever be
|
||||
two characters long and must fit in a PrintableString).
|
||||
|
||||
Some fields (such as organizationName) can be used more than once
|
||||
in a DN. This presents a problem because configuration files will
|
||||
not recognize the same name occurring twice. To avoid this problem
|
||||
if the fieldName contains some characters followed by a full stop
|
||||
they will be ignored. So for example a second organizationName can
|
||||
be input by calling it "1.organizationName".
|
||||
|
||||
The actual permitted field names are any object identifier short or
|
||||
long names. These are compiled into OpenSSL and include the usual
|
||||
values such as commonName, countryName, localityName, organizationName,
|
||||
organizationalUnitName, stateOrProvinceName. Additionally emailAddress
|
||||
is include as well as name, surname, givenName initials and dnQualifier.
|
||||
|
||||
Additional object identifiers can be defined with the B<oid_file> or
|
||||
B<oid_section> options in the configuration file. Any additional fields
|
||||
will be treated as though they were a DirectoryString.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 EXAMPLES
|
||||
|
||||
Examine and verify certificate request:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl req -in req.pem -text -verify -noout
|
||||
|
||||
Create a private key and then generate a certificate request from it:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl genrsa -out key.pem 2048
|
||||
openssl req -new -key key.pem -out req.pem
|
||||
|
||||
The same but just using req:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl req -newkey rsa:2048 -keyout key.pem -out req.pem
|
||||
|
||||
Generate a self signed root certificate:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl req -x509 -newkey rsa:2048 -keyout key.pem -out req.pem
|
||||
|
||||
Example of a file pointed to by the B<oid_file> option:
|
||||
|
||||
1.2.3.4 shortName A longer Name
|
||||
1.2.3.6 otherName Other longer Name
|
||||
|
||||
Example of a section pointed to by B<oid_section> making use of variable
|
||||
expansion:
|
||||
|
||||
testoid1=1.2.3.5
|
||||
testoid2=${testoid1}.6
|

=head1 NOTES
|
||||
|
||||
The header and footer lines in the B<PEM> format are normally:
|
||||
|
||||
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE REQUEST-----
|
||||
-----END CERTIFICATE REQUEST-----
|
||||
|
||||
some software (some versions of Netscape certificate server) instead needs:
|
||||
|
||||
-----BEGIN NEW CERTIFICATE REQUEST-----
|
||||
-----END NEW CERTIFICATE REQUEST-----
|
||||
|
||||
which is produced with the B<-newhdr> option but is otherwise compatible.
|
||||
Either form is accepted transparently on input.
|
||||
|
||||
The certificate requests generated by B<Xenroll> with MSIE have extensions
|
||||
added. It includes the B<keyUsage> extension which determines the type of
|
||||
key (signature only or general purpose) and any additional OIDs entered
|
||||
by the script in an extendedKeyUsage extension.
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 DIAGNOSTICS
|
||||
|
||||
The following messages are frequently asked about:
|
||||
|
||||
Using configuration from /some/path/openssl.cnf
|
||||
Unable to load config info
|
||||
|
||||
This is followed some time later by...
|
||||
|
||||
unable to find 'distinguished_name' in config
|
||||
problems making Certificate Request
|
||||
|
||||
The first error message is the clue: it can't find the configuration
|
||||
file! Certain operations (like examining a certificate request) don't
|
||||
need a configuration file so its use isn't enforced. Generation of
|
||||
certificates or requests however does need a configuration file. This
|
||||
could be regarded as a bug.
|
||||
|
||||
Another puzzling message is this:
|
||||
|
||||
Attributes:
|
||||
a0:00
|
||||
|
||||
this is displayed when no attributes are present and the request includes
|
||||
the correct empty B<SET OF> structure (the DER encoding of which is 0xa0
|
||||
0x00). If you just see:
|
||||
|
||||
Attributes:
|
||||
|
||||
then the B<SET OF> is missing and the encoding is technically invalid (but
|
||||
it is tolerated). See the description of the command line option B<-asn1-kludge>
|
||||
for more information.
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
|
||||
|
||||
The variable B<OPENSSL_CONF> if defined allows an alternative configuration
|
||||
file location to be specified, it will be overridden by the B<-config> command
|
||||
line switch if it is present. For compatibility reasons the B<SSLEAY_CONF>
|
||||
environment variable serves the same purpose but its use is discouraged.
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 BUGS
|
||||
|
||||
OpenSSL's handling of T61Strings (aka TeletexStrings) is broken: it effectively
|
||||
treats them as ISO-8859-1 (Latin 1), Netscape and MSIE have similar behaviour.
|
||||
This can cause problems if you need characters that aren't available in
|
||||
PrintableStrings and you don't want to or can't use BMPStrings.
|
||||
|
||||
As a consequence of the T61String handling the only correct way to represent
|
||||
accented characters in OpenSSL is to use a BMPString: unfortunately Netscape
|
||||
currently chokes on these. If you have to use accented characters with Netscape
|
||||
and MSIE then you currently need to use the invalid T61String form.
|
||||
|
||||
The current prompting is not very friendly. It doesn't allow you to confirm what
|
||||
you've just entered. Other things like extensions in certificate requests are
|
||||
statically defined in the configuration file. Some of these: like an email
|
||||
address in subjectAltName should be input by the user.

=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
||||
|
||||
The B<rsa> command processes RSA keys. They can be converted between various
|
||||
forms and their components printed out. B<Note> this command uses the
|
||||
traditional SSLeay compatible format for private key encryption: newer
|
||||
applications should use the more secure PKCS#8 format using the B<pkcs8>
|
||||
utility.
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 COMMAND OPTIONS
|
||||
|
||||
=over 4
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-inform DER|NET|PEM>
|
||||
|
||||
This specifies the input format. The B<DER> option uses an ASN1 DER encoded
|
||||
form compatible with the PKCS#1 RSAPrivateKey or SubjectPublicKeyInfo format.
|
||||
The B<PEM> form is the default format: it consists of the B<DER> format base64
|
||||
encoded with additional header and footer lines. On input PKCS#8 format private
|
||||
keys are also accepted. The B<NET> form is a format is described in the B<NOTES>
|
||||
section.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-outform DER|NET|PEM>
|
||||
|
||||
This specifies the output format, the options have the same meaning as the
|
||||
B<-inform> option.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-in filename>
|
||||
|
||||
This specifies the input filename to read a key from or standard input if this
|
||||
option is not specified. If the key is encrypted a pass phrase will be
|
||||
prompted for.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-passin arg>
|
||||
|
||||
the input file password source. For more information about the format of B<arg>
|
||||
see the B<PASS PHRASE ARGUMENTS> section in L<openssl(1)|openssl(1)>.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-out filename>
|
||||
|
||||
This specifies the output filename to write a key to or standard output if this
|
||||
option is not specified. If any encryption options are set then a pass phrase
|
||||
will be prompted for. The output filename should B<not> be the same as the input
|
||||
filename.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-passout password>
|
||||
|
||||
the output file password source. For more information about the format of B<arg>
|
||||
see the B<PASS PHRASE ARGUMENTS> section in L<openssl(1)|openssl(1)>.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-sgckey>
|
||||
|
||||
use the modified NET algorithm used with some versions of Microsoft IIS and SGC
|
||||
keys.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-aes128|-aes192|-aes256|-camellia128|-camellia192|-camellia256|-des|-des3|-idea>
|
||||
|
||||
These options encrypt the private key with the specified
|
||||
cipher before outputting it. A pass phrase is prompted for.
|
||||
If none of these options is specified the key is written in plain text. This
|
||||
means that using the B<rsa> utility to read in an encrypted key with no
|
||||
encryption option can be used to remove the pass phrase from a key, or by
|
||||
setting the encryption options it can be use to add or change the pass phrase.
|
||||
These options can only be used with PEM format output files.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-text>
|
||||
|
||||
prints out the various public or private key components in
|
||||
plain text in addition to the encoded version.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-noout>
|
||||
|
||||
this option prevents output of the encoded version of the key.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-modulus>
|
||||
|
||||
this option prints out the value of the modulus of the key.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-check>
|
||||
|
||||
this option checks the consistency of an RSA private key.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-pubin>
|
||||
|
||||
by default a private key is read from the input file: with this
|
||||
option a public key is read instead.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-pubout>
|
||||
|
||||
by default a private key is output: with this option a public
|
||||
key will be output instead. This option is automatically set if
|
||||
the input is a public key.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-RSAPublicKey_in>, B<-RSAPublicKey_out>
|
||||
|
||||
like B<-pubin> and B<-pubout> except B<RSAPublicKey> format is used instead.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-engine id>
|
||||
|
||||
specifying an engine (by its unique B<id> string) will cause B<rsa>
|
||||
to attempt to obtain a functional reference to the specified engine,
|
||||
thus initialising it if needed. The engine will then be set as the default
|
||||
for all available algorithms.
|
||||
|
||||
=back
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 NOTES
|
||||
|
||||
The PEM private key format uses the header and footer lines:
|
||||
|
||||
-----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
|
||||
-----END RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
|
||||
|
||||
The PEM public key format uses the header and footer lines:
|
||||
|
||||
-----BEGIN PUBLIC KEY-----
|
||||
-----END PUBLIC KEY-----
|
||||
|
||||
The PEM B<RSAPublicKey> format uses the header and footer lines:
|
||||
|
||||
-----BEGIN RSA PUBLIC KEY-----
|
||||
-----END RSA PUBLIC KEY-----
|
||||
|
||||
The B<NET> form is a format compatible with older Netscape servers
|
||||
and Microsoft IIS .key files, this uses unsalted RC4 for its encryption.
|
||||
It is not very secure and so should only be used when necessary.
|
||||
|
||||
Some newer version of IIS have additional data in the exported .key
|
||||
files. To use these with the utility, view the file with a binary editor
|
||||
and look for the string "private-key", then trace back to the byte
|
||||
sequence 0x30, 0x82 (this is an ASN1 SEQUENCE). Copy all the data
|
||||
from this point onwards to another file and use that as the input
|
||||
to the B<rsa> utility with the B<-inform NET> option. If you get
|
||||
an error after entering the password try the B<-sgckey> option.
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 EXAMPLES
|
||||
|
||||
To remove the pass phrase on an RSA private key:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl rsa -in key.pem -out keyout.pem
|
||||
|
||||
To encrypt a private key using triple DES:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl rsa -in key.pem -des3 -out keyout.pem
|
||||
|
||||
To convert a private key from PEM to DER format:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl rsa -in key.pem -outform DER -out keyout.der
|
||||
|
||||
To print out the components of a private key to standard output:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl rsa -in key.pem -text -noout
|
||||
|
||||
To just output the public part of a private key:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl rsa -in key.pem -pubout -out pubkey.pem
|
||||
|
||||
Output the public part of a private key in B<RSAPublicKey> format:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl rsa -in key.pem -RSAPublicKey_out -out pubkey.pem
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 BUGS
|
||||
|
||||
The command line password arguments don't currently work with
|
||||
B<NET> format.
|
||||
|
||||
There should be an option that automatically handles .key files,
|
||||
without having to manually edit them.

The PKCS#1 block formatting is evident from this. If this was done using
|
||||
encrypt and decrypt the block would have been of type 2 (the second byte)
|
||||
and random padding data visible instead of the 0xff bytes.
|
||||
|
||||
It is possible to analyse the signature of certificates using this
|
||||
utility in conjunction with B<asn1parse>. Consider the self signed
|
||||
example in certs/pca-cert.pem . Running B<asn1parse> as follows yields:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl asn1parse -in pca-cert.pem
|
||||
|
||||
0:d=0 hl=4 l= 742 cons: SEQUENCE
|
||||
4:d=1 hl=4 l= 591 cons: SEQUENCE
|
||||
8:d=2 hl=2 l= 3 cons: cont [ 0 ]
|
||||
10:d=3 hl=2 l= 1 prim: INTEGER :02
|
||||
13:d=2 hl=2 l= 1 prim: INTEGER :00
|
||||
16:d=2 hl=2 l= 13 cons: SEQUENCE
|
||||
18:d=3 hl=2 l= 9 prim: OBJECT :md5WithRSAEncryption
|
||||
29:d=3 hl=2 l= 0 prim: NULL
|
||||
31:d=2 hl=2 l= 92 cons: SEQUENCE
|
||||
33:d=3 hl=2 l= 11 cons: SET
|
||||
35:d=4 hl=2 l= 9 cons: SEQUENCE
|
||||
37:d=5 hl=2 l= 3 prim: OBJECT :countryName
|
||||
42:d=5 hl=2 l= 2 prim: PRINTABLESTRING :AU
|

|
||||
599:d=1 hl=2 l= 13 cons: SEQUENCE
|
||||
601:d=2 hl=2 l= 9 prim: OBJECT :md5WithRSAEncryption
|
||||
612:d=2 hl=2 l= 0 prim: NULL
|
||||
614:d=1 hl=3 l= 129 prim: BIT STRING
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
The final BIT STRING contains the actual signature. It can be extracted with:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl asn1parse -in pca-cert.pem -out sig -noout -strparse 614
|
||||
|
||||
The certificate public key can be extracted with:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl x509 -in test/testx509.pem -pubkey -noout >pubkey.pem
|
||||
|
||||
The signature can be analysed with:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl rsautl -in sig -verify -asn1parse -inkey pubkey.pem -pubin
|
||||
|
||||
0:d=0 hl=2 l= 32 cons: SEQUENCE
|

|

|
||||
|
||||
This is the parsed version of an ASN1 DigestInfo structure. It can be seen that
|
||||
the digest used was md5. The actual part of the certificate that was signed can
|
||||
be extracted with:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl asn1parse -in pca-cert.pem -out tbs -noout -strparse 4
|
||||
|
||||
and its digest computed with:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl md5 -c tbs
|
||||
MD5(tbs)= f3:46:9e:aa:1a:4a:73:c9:37:ea:93:00:48:25:08:b5
|
||||
|
||||
which it can be seen agrees with the recovered value above.

=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
||||
|
||||
The B<s_client> command implements a generic SSL/TLS client which connects
|
||||
to a remote host using SSL/TLS. It is a I<very> useful diagnostic tool for
|
||||
SSL servers.
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 OPTIONS
|
||||
|
||||
=over 4
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-connect host:port>
|
||||
|
||||
This specifies the host and optional port to connect to. If not specified
|
||||
then an attempt is made to connect to the local host on port 4433.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-servername name>
|
||||
|
||||
Set the TLS SNI (Server Name Indication) extension in the ClientHello message.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-cert certname>
|
||||
|
||||
The certificate to use, if one is requested by the server. The default is
|
||||
not to use a certificate.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-certform format>
|
||||
|
||||
The certificate format to use: DER or PEM. PEM is the default.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-key keyfile>
|
||||
|
||||
The private key to use. If not specified then the certificate file will
|
||||
be used.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-keyform format>
|
||||
|
||||
The private format to use: DER or PEM. PEM is the default.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-pass arg>
|
||||
|
||||
the private key password source. For more information about the format of B<arg>
|
||||
see the B<PASS PHRASE ARGUMENTS> section in L<openssl(1)|openssl(1)>.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-verify depth>
|
||||
|
||||
The verify depth to use. This specifies the maximum length of the
|
||||
server certificate chain and turns on server certificate verification.
|
||||
Currently the verify operation continues after errors so all the problems
|
||||
with a certificate chain can be seen. As a side effect the connection
|
||||
will never fail due to a server certificate verify failure.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-verify_return_error>
|
||||
|
||||
Return verification errors instead of continuing. This will typically
|
||||
abort the handshake with a fatal error.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-CApath directory>
|
||||
|
||||
The directory to use for server certificate verification. This directory
|
||||
must be in "hash format", see B<verify> for more information. These are
|
||||
also used when building the client certificate chain.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-CAfile file>
|
||||
|
||||
A file containing trusted certificates to use during server authentication
|
||||
and to use when attempting to build the client certificate chain.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-purpose, -ignore_critical, -issuer_checks, -crl_check, -crl_check_all, -policy_check, -extended_crl, -x509_strict, -policy -check_ss_sig -no_alt_chains>
|
||||
|
||||
Set various certificate chain valiadition option. See the
|
||||
L<B<verify>|verify(1)> manual page for details.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-reconnect>
|
||||
|
||||
reconnects to the same server 5 times using the same session ID, this can
|
||||
be used as a test that session caching is working.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-pause>
|
||||
|
||||
pauses 1 second between each read and write call.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-showcerts>
|
||||
|
||||
display the whole server certificate chain: normally only the server
|
||||
certificate itself is displayed.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-prexit>
|
||||
|
||||
print session information when the program exits. This will always attempt
|
||||
to print out information even if the connection fails. Normally information
|
||||
will only be printed out once if the connection succeeds. This option is useful
|
||||
because the cipher in use may be renegotiated or the connection may fail
|
||||
because a client certificate is required or is requested only after an
|
||||
attempt is made to access a certain URL. Note: the output produced by this
|
||||
option is not always accurate because a connection might never have been
|
||||
established.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-state>
|
||||
|
||||
prints out the SSL session states.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-debug>
|
||||
|
||||
print extensive debugging information including a hex dump of all traffic.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-msg>
|
||||
|
||||
show all protocol messages with hex dump.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-nbio_test>
|
||||
|
||||
tests non-blocking I/O
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-nbio>
|
||||
|
||||
turns on non-blocking I/O
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-crlf>
|
||||
|
||||
this option translated a line feed from the terminal into CR+LF as required
|
||||
by some servers.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-ign_eof>
|
||||
|
||||
inhibit shutting down the connection when end of file is reached in the
|
||||
input.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-quiet>
|
||||
|
||||
inhibit printing of session and certificate information. This implicitly
|
||||
turns on B<-ign_eof> as well.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-no_ign_eof>
|
||||
|
||||
shut down the connection when end of file is reached in the input.
|
||||
Can be used to override the implicit B<-ign_eof> after B<-quiet>.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-psk_identity identity>
|
||||
|
||||
Use the PSK identity B<identity> when using a PSK cipher suite.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-psk key>
|
||||
|
||||
Use the PSK key B<key> when using a PSK cipher suite. The key is
|
||||
given as a hexadecimal number without leading 0x, for example -psk
|
||||
1a2b3c4d.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-ssl2>, B<-ssl3>, B<-tls1>, B<-tls1_1>, B<-tls1_2>, B<-no_ssl2>, B<-no_ssl3>, B<-no_tls1>, B<-no_tls1_1>, B<-no_tls1_2>
|
||||
|
||||
These options require or disable the use of the specified SSL or TLS protocols.
|
||||
By default the initial handshake uses a I<version-flexible> method which will
|
||||
negotiate the highest mutually supported protocol version.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-fallback_scsv>
|
||||
|
||||
Send TLS_FALLBACK_SCSV in the ClientHello.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-bugs>
|
||||
|
||||
there are several known bug in SSL and TLS implementations. Adding this
|
||||
option enables various workarounds.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-cipher cipherlist>
|
||||
|
||||
this allows the cipher list sent by the client to be modified. Although
|
||||
the server determines which cipher suite is used it should take the first
|
||||
supported cipher in the list sent by the client. See the B<ciphers>
|
||||
command for more information.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-serverpref>
|
||||
|
||||
use the server's cipher preferences; only used for SSLV2.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-starttls protocol>
|
||||
|
||||
send the protocol-specific message(s) to switch to TLS for communication.
|
||||
B<protocol> is a keyword for the intended protocol. Currently, the only
|
||||
supported keywords are "smtp", "pop3", "imap", and "ftp".
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-tlsextdebug>
|
||||
|
||||
print out a hex dump of any TLS extensions received from the server.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-no_ticket>
|
||||
|
||||
disable RFC4507bis session ticket support.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-sess_out filename>
|
||||
|
||||
output SSL session to B<filename>
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-sess_in sess.pem>
|
||||
|
||||
load SSL session from B<filename>. The client will attempt to resume a
|
||||
connection from this session.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-engine id>
|
||||
|
||||
specifying an engine (by its unique B<id> string) will cause B<s_client>
|
||||
to attempt to obtain a functional reference to the specified engine,
|
||||
thus initialising it if needed. The engine will then be set as the default
|
||||
for all available algorithms.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-rand file(s)>
|
||||
|
||||
a file or files containing random data used to seed the random number
|
||||
generator, or an EGD socket (see L<RAND_egd(3)|RAND_egd(3)>).
|
||||
Multiple files can be specified separated by a OS-dependent character.
|
||||
The separator is B<;> for MS-Windows, B<,> for OpenVMS, and B<:> for
|
||||
all others.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-serverinfo types>
|
||||
|
||||
a list of comma-separated TLS Extension Types (numbers between 0 and
|
||||
65535). Each type will be sent as an empty ClientHello TLS Extension.
|
||||
The server's response (if any) will be encoded and displayed as a PEM
|
||||
file.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-status>
|
||||
|
||||
sends a certificate status request to the server (OCSP stapling). The server
|
||||
response (if any) is printed out.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-alpn protocols>, B<-nextprotoneg protocols>
|
||||
|
||||
these flags enable the
|
||||
Enable the Application-Layer Protocol Negotiation or Next Protocol
|
||||
Negotiation extension, respectively. ALPN is the IETF standard and
|
||||
replaces NPN.
|
||||
The B<protocols> list is a
|
||||
comma-separated protocol names that the client should advertise
|
||||
support for. The list should contain most wanted protocols first.
|
||||
Protocol names are printable ASCII strings, for example "http/1.1" or
|
||||
"spdy/3".
|
||||
Empty list of protocols is treated specially and will cause the client to
|
||||
advertise support for the TLS extension but disconnect just after
|
||||
reciving ServerHello with a list of server supported protocols.

||||

|
||||
|
||||
=head1 CONNECTED COMMANDS
|
||||
|
||||
If a connection is established with an SSL server then any data received
|
||||
from the server is displayed and any key presses will be sent to the
|
||||
server. When used interactively (which means neither B<-quiet> nor B<-ign_eof>
|
||||
have been given), the session will be renegotiated if the line begins with an
|
||||
B<R>, and if the line begins with a B<Q> or if end of file is reached, the
|
||||
connection will be closed down.
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 NOTES
|
||||
|
||||
B<s_client> can be used to debug SSL servers. To connect to an SSL HTTP
|
||||
server the command:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl s_client -connect servername:443
|
||||
|
||||
would typically be used (https uses port 443). If the connection succeeds
|
||||
then an HTTP command can be given such as "GET /" to retrieve a web page.
|
||||
|
||||
If the handshake fails then there are several possible causes, if it is
|
||||
nothing obvious like no client certificate then the B<-bugs>, B<-ssl2>,
|
||||
B<-ssl3>, B<-tls1>, B<-no_ssl2>, B<-no_ssl3>, B<-no_tls1> options can be tried
|
||||
in case it is a buggy server. In particular you should play with these
|
||||
options B<before> submitting a bug report to an OpenSSL mailing list.
|
||||
|
||||
A frequent problem when attempting to get client certificates working
|
||||
is that a web client complains it has no certificates or gives an empty
|
||||
list to choose from. This is normally because the server is not sending
|
||||
the clients certificate authority in its "acceptable CA list" when it
|
||||
requests a certificate. By using B<s_client> the CA list can be viewed
|
||||
and checked. However some servers only request client authentication
|
||||
after a specific URL is requested. To obtain the list in this case it
|
||||
is necessary to use the B<-prexit> option and send an HTTP request
|
||||
for an appropriate page.
|
||||
|
||||
If a certificate is specified on the command line using the B<-cert>
|
||||
option it will not be used unless the server specifically requests
|
||||
a client certificate. Therefor merely including a client certificate
|
||||
on the command line is no guarantee that the certificate works.
|
||||
|
||||
If there are problems verifying a server certificate then the
|
||||
B<-showcerts> option can be used to show the whole chain.
|
||||
|
||||
Since the SSLv23 client hello cannot include compression methods or extensions
|
||||
these will only be supported if its use is disabled, for example by using the
|
||||
B<-no_sslv2> option.
|
||||
|
||||
The B<s_client> utility is a test tool and is designed to continue the
|
||||
handshake after any certificate verification errors. As a result it will
|
||||
accept any certificate chain (trusted or not) sent by the peer. None test
|
||||
applications should B<not> do this as it makes them vulnerable to a MITM
|
||||
attack. This behaviour can be changed by with the B<-verify_return_error>
|
||||
option: any verify errors are then returned aborting the handshake.
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 BUGS
|
||||
|
||||
Because this program has a lot of options and also because some of
|
||||
the techniques used are rather old, the C source of s_client is rather
|
||||
hard to read and not a model of how things should be done. A typical
|
||||
SSL client program would be much simpler.
|
||||
|
||||
The B<-prexit> option is a bit of a hack. We should really report
|
||||
information whenever a session is renegotiated.

=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
||||
|
||||
The B<s_server> command implements a generic SSL/TLS server which listens
|
||||
for connections on a given port using SSL/TLS.
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 OPTIONS
|
||||
|
||||
=over 4
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-accept port>
|
||||
|
||||
the TCP port to listen on for connections. If not specified 4433 is used.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-context id>
|
||||
|
||||
sets the SSL context id. It can be given any string value. If this option
|
||||
is not present a default value will be used.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-cert certname>
|
||||
|
||||
The certificate to use, most servers cipher suites require the use of a
|
||||
certificate and some require a certificate with a certain public key type:
|
||||
for example the DSS cipher suites require a certificate containing a DSS
|
||||
(DSA) key. If not specified then the filename "server.pem" will be used.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-certform format>
|
||||
|
||||
The certificate format to use: DER or PEM. PEM is the default.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-key keyfile>
|
||||
|
||||
The private key to use. If not specified then the certificate file will
|
||||
be used.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-keyform format>
|
||||
|
||||
The private format to use: DER or PEM. PEM is the default.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-pass arg>
|
||||
|
||||
the private key password source. For more information about the format of B<arg>
|
||||
see the B<PASS PHRASE ARGUMENTS> section in L<openssl(1)|openssl(1)>.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-dcert filename>, B<-dkey keyname>
|
||||
|
||||
specify an additional certificate and private key, these behave in the
|
||||
same manner as the B<-cert> and B<-key> options except there is no default
|
||||
if they are not specified (no additional certificate and key is used). As
|
||||
noted above some cipher suites require a certificate containing a key of
|
||||
a certain type. Some cipher suites need a certificate carrying an RSA key
|
||||
and some a DSS (DSA) key. By using RSA and DSS certificates and keys
|
||||
a server can support clients which only support RSA or DSS cipher suites
|
||||
by using an appropriate certificate.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-dcertform format>, B<-dkeyform format>, B<-dpass arg>
|
||||
|
||||
additional certificate and private key format and passphrase respectively.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-nocert>
|
||||
|
||||
if this option is set then no certificate is used. This restricts the
|
||||
cipher suites available to the anonymous ones (currently just anonymous
|
||||
DH).
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-dhparam filename>
|
||||
|
||||
the DH parameter file to use. The ephemeral DH cipher suites generate keys
|
||||
using a set of DH parameters. If not specified then an attempt is made to
|
||||
load the parameters from the server certificate file. If this fails then
|
||||
a static set of parameters hard coded into the s_server program will be used.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-no_dhe>
|
||||
|
||||
if this option is set then no DH parameters will be loaded effectively
|
||||
disabling the ephemeral DH cipher suites.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-no_tmp_rsa>
|
||||
|
||||
certain export cipher suites sometimes use a temporary RSA key, this option
|
||||
disables temporary RSA key generation.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-verify depth>, B<-Verify depth>
|
||||
|
||||
The verify depth to use. This specifies the maximum length of the
|
||||
client certificate chain and makes the server request a certificate from
|
||||
the client. With the B<-verify> option a certificate is requested but the
|
||||
client does not have to send one, with the B<-Verify> option the client
|
||||
must supply a certificate or an error occurs.
|
||||
|
||||
If the ciphersuite cannot request a client certificate (for example an
|
||||
anonymous ciphersuite or PSK) this option has no effect.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-crl_check>, B<-crl_check_all>
|
||||
|
||||
Check the peer certificate has not been revoked by its CA.
|
||||
The CRL(s) are appended to the certificate file. With the B<-crl_check_all>
|
||||
option all CRLs of all CAs in the chain are checked.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-CApath directory>
|
||||
|
||||
The directory to use for client certificate verification. This directory
|
||||
must be in "hash format", see B<verify> for more information. These are
|
||||
also used when building the server certificate chain.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-CAfile file>
|
||||
|
||||
A file containing trusted certificates to use during client authentication
|
||||
and to use when attempting to build the server certificate chain. The list
|
||||
is also used in the list of acceptable client CAs passed to the client when
|
||||
a certificate is requested.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-no_alt_chains>
|
||||
|
||||
See the L<B<verify>|verify(1)> manual page for details.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-state>
|
||||
|
||||
prints out the SSL session states.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-debug>
|
||||
|
||||
print extensive debugging information including a hex dump of all traffic.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-msg>
|
||||
|
||||
show all protocol messages with hex dump.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-nbio_test>
|
||||
|
||||
tests non blocking I/O
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-nbio>
|
||||
|
||||
turns on non blocking I/O
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-crlf>
|
||||
|
||||
this option translated a line feed from the terminal into CR+LF.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-quiet>
|
||||
|
||||
inhibit printing of session and certificate information.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-psk_hint hint>
|
||||
|
||||
Use the PSK identity hint B<hint> when using a PSK cipher suite.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-psk key>
|
||||
|
||||
Use the PSK key B<key> when using a PSK cipher suite. The key is
|
||||
given as a hexadecimal number without leading 0x, for example -psk
|
||||
1a2b3c4d.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-ssl2>, B<-ssl3>, B<-tls1>, B<-tls1_1>, B<-tls1_2>, B<-no_ssl2>, B<-no_ssl3>, B<-no_tls1>, B<-no_tls1_1>, B<-no_tls1_2>
|
||||
|
||||
These options require or disable the use of the specified SSL or TLS protocols.
|
||||
By default the initial handshake uses a I<version-flexible> method which will
|
||||
negotiate the highest mutually supported protocol version.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-bugs>
|
||||
|
||||
there are several known bug in SSL and TLS implementations. Adding this
|
||||
option enables various workarounds.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-hack>
|
||||
|
||||
this option enables a further workaround for some some early Netscape
|
||||
SSL code (?).
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-cipher cipherlist>
|
||||
|
||||
this allows the cipher list used by the server to be modified. When
|
||||
the client sends a list of supported ciphers the first client cipher
|
||||
also included in the server list is used. Because the client specifies
|
||||
the preference order, the order of the server cipherlist irrelevant. See
|
||||
the B<ciphers> command for more information.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-serverpref>
|
||||
|
||||
use the server's cipher preferences, rather than the client's preferences.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-tlsextdebug>
|
||||
|
||||
print out a hex dump of any TLS extensions received from the server.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-no_ticket>
|
||||
|
||||
disable RFC4507bis session ticket support.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-www>
|
||||
|
||||
sends a status message back to the client when it connects. This includes
|
||||
lots of information about the ciphers used and various session parameters.
|
||||
The output is in HTML format so this option will normally be used with a
|
||||
web browser.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-WWW>
|
||||
|
||||
emulates a simple web server. Pages will be resolved relative to the
|
||||
current directory, for example if the URL https://myhost/page.html is
|
||||
requested the file ./page.html will be loaded.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-HTTP>
|
||||
|
||||
emulates a simple web server. Pages will be resolved relative to the
|
||||
current directory, for example if the URL https://myhost/page.html is
|
||||
requested the file ./page.html will be loaded. The files loaded are
|
||||
assumed to contain a complete and correct HTTP response (lines that
|
||||
are part of the HTTP response line and headers must end with CRLF).
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-engine id>
|
||||
|
||||
specifying an engine (by its unique B<id> string) will cause B<s_server>
|
||||
to attempt to obtain a functional reference to the specified engine,
|
||||
thus initialising it if needed. The engine will then be set as the default
|
||||
for all available algorithms.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-id_prefix arg>
|
||||
|
||||
generate SSL/TLS session IDs prefixed by B<arg>. This is mostly useful
|
||||
for testing any SSL/TLS code (eg. proxies) that wish to deal with multiple
|
||||
servers, when each of which might be generating a unique range of session
|
||||
IDs (eg. with a certain prefix).
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-rand file(s)>
|
||||
|
||||
a file or files containing random data used to seed the random number
|
||||
generator, or an EGD socket (see L<RAND_egd(3)|RAND_egd(3)>).
|
||||
Multiple files can be specified separated by a OS-dependent character.
|
||||
The separator is B<;> for MS-Windows, B<,> for OpenVMS, and B<:> for
|
||||
all others.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-serverinfo file>
|
||||
|
||||
a file containing one or more blocks of PEM data. Each PEM block
|
||||
must encode a TLS ServerHello extension (2 bytes type, 2 bytes length,
|
||||
followed by "length" bytes of extension data). If the client sends
|
||||
an empty TLS ClientHello extension matching the type, the corresponding
|
||||
ServerHello extension will be returned.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-no_resumption_on_reneg>
|
||||
|
||||
set SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION flag.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-status>
|
||||
|
||||
enables certificate status request support (aka OCSP stapling).
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-status_verbose>
|
||||
|
||||
enables certificate status request support (aka OCSP stapling) and gives
|
||||
a verbose printout of the OCSP response.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-status_timeout nsec>
|
||||
|
||||
sets the timeout for OCSP response to B<nsec> seconds.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-status_url url>
|
||||
|
||||
sets a fallback responder URL to use if no responder URL is present in the
|
||||
server certificate. Without this option an error is returned if the server
|
||||
certificate does not contain a responder address.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-alpn protocols>, B<-nextprotoneg protocols>
|
||||
|
||||
these flags enable the
|
||||
Enable the Application-Layer Protocol Negotiation or Next Protocol
|
||||
Negotiation extension, respectively. ALPN is the IETF standard and
|
||||
replaces NPN.
|
||||
The B<protocols> list is a
|
||||
comma-separated list of supported protocol names.
|
||||
The list should contain most wanted protocols first.
|
||||
Protocol names are printable ASCII strings, for example "http/1.1" or
|
||||
"spdy/3".
|
||||
|

|
||||
|
||||
=head1 CONNECTED COMMANDS
|
||||
|
||||
If a connection request is established with an SSL client and neither the
|
||||
B<-www> nor the B<-WWW> option has been used then normally any data received
|
||||
from the client is displayed and any key presses will be sent to the client.
|
||||
|
||||
Certain single letter commands are also recognized which perform special
|
||||
operations: these are listed below.
|
||||
|
||||
=over 4
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<q>
|
||||
|
||||
end the current SSL connection but still accept new connections.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<Q>
|
||||
|
||||
end the current SSL connection and exit.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<r>
|
||||
|
||||
renegotiate the SSL session.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<R>
|
||||
|
||||
renegotiate the SSL session and request a client certificate.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<P>
|
||||
|
||||
send some plain text down the underlying TCP connection: this should
|
||||
cause the client to disconnect due to a protocol violation.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<S>
|
||||
|
||||
print out some session cache status information.
|
||||
|
||||
=back
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 NOTES
|
||||
|
||||
B<s_server> can be used to debug SSL clients. To accept connections from
|
||||
a web browser the command:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl s_server -accept 443 -www
|
||||
|
||||
can be used for example.
|
||||
|
||||
Most web browsers (in particular Netscape and MSIE) only support RSA cipher
|
||||
suites, so they cannot connect to servers which don't use a certificate
|
||||
carrying an RSA key or a version of OpenSSL with RSA disabled.
|
||||
|
||||
Although specifying an empty list of CAs when requesting a client certificate
|
||||
is strictly speaking a protocol violation, some SSL clients interpret this to
|
||||
mean any CA is acceptable. This is useful for debugging purposes.
|
||||
|
||||
The session parameters can printed out using the B<sess_id> program.
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 BUGS
|
||||
|
||||
Because this program has a lot of options and also because some of
|
||||
the techniques used are rather old, the C source of s_server is rather
|
||||
hard to read and not a model of how things should be done. A typical
|
||||
SSL server program would be much simpler.
|
||||
|
||||
The output of common ciphers is wrong: it just gives the list of ciphers that
|
||||
OpenSSL recognizes and the client supports.
|
||||
|
||||
There should be a way for the B<s_server> program to print out details of any
|
||||
unknown cipher suites a client says it supports.

=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
||||
|
||||
The B<s_time> command implements a generic SSL/TLS client which connects to a
|
||||
remote host using SSL/TLS. It can request a page from the server and includes
|
||||
the time to transfer the payload data in its timing measurements. It measures
|
||||
the number of connections within a given timeframe, the amount of data
|
||||
transferred (if any), and calculates the average time spent for one connection.
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 OPTIONS
|
||||
|
||||
=over 4
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-connect host:port>
|
||||
|
||||
This specifies the host and optional port to connect to.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-www page>
|
||||
|
||||
This specifies the page to GET from the server. A value of '/' gets the
|
||||
index.htm[l] page. If this parameter is not specified, then B<s_time> will only
|
||||
perform the handshake to establish SSL connections but not transfer any
|
||||
payload data.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-cert certname>
|
||||
|
||||
The certificate to use, if one is requested by the server. The default is
|
||||
not to use a certificate. The file is in PEM format.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-key keyfile>
|
||||
|
||||
The private key to use. If not specified then the certificate file will
|
||||
be used. The file is in PEM format.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-verify depth>
|
||||
|
||||
The verify depth to use. This specifies the maximum length of the
|
||||
server certificate chain and turns on server certificate verification.
|
||||
Currently the verify operation continues after errors so all the problems
|
||||
with a certificate chain can be seen. As a side effect the connection
|
||||
will never fail due to a server certificate verify failure.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-CApath directory>
|
||||
|
||||
The directory to use for server certificate verification. This directory
|
||||
must be in "hash format", see B<verify> for more information. These are
|
||||
also used when building the client certificate chain.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-CAfile file>
|
||||
|
||||
A file containing trusted certificates to use during server authentication
|
||||
and to use when attempting to build the client certificate chain.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-new>
|
||||
|
||||
performs the timing test using a new session ID for each connection.
|
||||
If neither B<-new> nor B<-reuse> are specified, they are both on by default
|
||||
and executed in sequence.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-reuse>
|
||||
|
||||
performs the timing test using the same session ID; this can be used as a test
|
||||
that session caching is working. If neither B<-new> nor B<-reuse> are
|
||||
specified, they are both on by default and executed in sequence.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-nbio>
|
||||
|
||||
turns on non-blocking I/O.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-ssl2>, B<-ssl3>
|
||||
|
||||
these options disable the use of certain SSL or TLS protocols. By default
|
||||
the initial handshake uses a method which should be compatible with all
|
||||
servers and permit them to use SSL v3, SSL v2 or TLS as appropriate.
|
||||
The timing program is not as rich in options to turn protocols on and off as
|
||||
the L<s_client(1)|s_client(1)> program and may not connect to all servers.
|
||||
|
||||
Unfortunately there are a lot of ancient and broken servers in use which
|
||||
cannot handle this technique and will fail to connect. Some servers only
|
||||
work if TLS is turned off with the B<-ssl3> option; others
|
||||
will only support SSL v2 and may need the B<-ssl2> option.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-bugs>
|
||||
|
||||
there are several known bug in SSL and TLS implementations. Adding this
|
||||
option enables various workarounds.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-cipher cipherlist>
|
||||
|
||||
this allows the cipher list sent by the client to be modified. Although
|
||||
the server determines which cipher suite is used it should take the first
|
||||
supported cipher in the list sent by the client.
|
||||
See the L<ciphers(1)|ciphers(1)> command for more information.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-time length>
|
||||
|
||||
specifies how long (in seconds) B<s_time> should establish connections and
|
||||
optionally transfer payload data from a server. Server and client performance
|
||||
and the link speed determine how many connections B<s_time> can establish.
|
||||
|
||||
=back
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 NOTES
|
||||
|
||||
B<s_time> can be used to measure the performance of an SSL connection.
|
||||
To connect to an SSL HTTP server and get the default page the command
|
||||
|
||||
openssl s_time -connect servername:443 -www / -CApath yourdir -CAfile yourfile.pem -cipher commoncipher [-ssl3]
|
||||
|
||||
would typically be used (https uses port 443). 'commoncipher' is a cipher to
|
||||
which both client and server can agree, see the L<ciphers(1)|ciphers(1)> command
|
||||
for details.
|
||||
|
||||
If the handshake fails then there are several possible causes, if it is
|
||||
nothing obvious like no client certificate then the B<-bugs>, B<-ssl2>,
|
||||
B<-ssl3> options can be tried
|
||||
in case it is a buggy server. In particular you should play with these
|
||||
options B<before> submitting a bug report to an OpenSSL mailing list.
|
||||
|
||||
A frequent problem when attempting to get client certificates working
|
||||
is that a web client complains it has no certificates or gives an empty
|
||||
list to choose from. This is normally because the server is not sending
|
||||
the clients certificate authority in its "acceptable CA list" when it
|
||||
requests a certificate. By using L<s_client(1)|s_client(1)> the CA list can be
|
||||
viewed and checked. However some servers only request client authentication
|
||||
after a specific URL is requested. To obtain the list in this case it
|
||||
is necessary to use the B<-prexit> option of L<s_client(1)|s_client(1)> and
|
||||
send an HTTP request for an appropriate page.
|
||||
|
||||
If a certificate is specified on the command line using the B<-cert>
|
||||
option it will not be used unless the server specifically requests
|
||||
a client certificate. Therefor merely including a client certificate
|
||||
on the command line is no guarantee that the certificate works.
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 BUGS
|
||||
|
||||
Because this program does not have all the options of the
|
||||
L<s_client(1)|s_client(1)> program to turn protocols on and off, you may not be
|
||||
able to measure the performance of all protocols with all servers.
|
||||
|
||||
The B<-verify> option should really exit if the server verification
|
||||
fails.

=head1 NAME
|
||||
|
||||
sess_id - SSL/TLS session handling utility
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 SYNOPSIS
|
||||
|
||||
B<openssl> B<sess_id>
|
||||
[B<-inform PEM|DER>]
|
||||
[B<-outform PEM|DER>]
|
||||
[B<-in filename>]
|
||||
[B<-out filename>]
|
||||
[B<-text>]
|
||||
[B<-noout>]
|
||||
[B<-context ID>]
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
||||
|
||||
The B<sess_id> process the encoded version of the SSL session structure
|
||||
and optionally prints out SSL session details (for example the SSL session
|
||||
master key) in human readable format. Since this is a diagnostic tool that
|
||||
needs some knowledge of the SSL protocol to use properly, most users will
|
||||
not need to use it.
|
||||
|
||||
=over 4
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-inform DER|PEM>
|
||||
|
||||
This specifies the input format. The B<DER> option uses an ASN1 DER encoded
|
||||
format containing session details. The precise format can vary from one version
|
||||
to the next. The B<PEM> form is the default format: it consists of the B<DER>
|
||||
format base64 encoded with additional header and footer lines.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-outform DER|PEM>
|
||||
|
||||
This specifies the output format, the options have the same meaning as the
|
||||
B<-inform> option.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-in filename>
|
||||
|
||||
This specifies the input filename to read session information from or standard
|
||||
input by default.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-out filename>
|
||||
|
||||
This specifies the output filename to write session information to or standard
|
||||
output if this option is not specified.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-text>
|
||||
|
||||
prints out the various public or private key components in
|
||||
plain text in addition to the encoded version.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-cert>
|
||||
|
||||
if a certificate is present in the session it will be output using this option,
|
||||
if the B<-text> option is also present then it will be printed out in text form.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-noout>
|
||||
|
||||
this option prevents output of the encoded version of the session.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-context ID>
|
||||
|
||||
this option can set the session id so the output session information uses the
|
||||
supplied ID. The ID can be any string of characters. This option wont normally
|
||||
be used.
|
||||
|

the timeout in seconds.
|

=item B<Verify return code>
|

this is the return code when an SSL client certificate is verified.
|
||||
|

=back
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 NOTES
|
||||
|
||||
The PEM encoded session format uses the header and footer lines:
|
||||
|
||||
-----BEGIN SSL SESSION PARAMETERS-----
|
||||
-----END SSL SESSION PARAMETERS-----
|
||||
|
||||
Since the SSL session output contains the master key it is possible to read the contents
|
||||
of an encrypted session using this information. Therefore appropriate security precautions
|
||||
should be taken if the information is being output by a "real" application. This is
|
||||
however strongly discouraged and should only be used for debugging purposes.
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 BUGS
|
||||
|
||||
The cipher and start time should be printed out in human readable form.

The B<smime> command handles S/MIME mail. It can encrypt, decrypt, sign and
|
||||
verify S/MIME messages.
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 COMMAND OPTIONS
|
||||
|
||||
There are six operation options that set the type of operation to be performed.
|
||||
The meaning of the other options varies according to the operation type.
|
||||
|
||||
=over 4
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-encrypt>
|
||||
|
||||
encrypt mail for the given recipient certificates. Input file is the message
|
||||
to be encrypted. The output file is the encrypted mail in MIME format.
|
||||
|
||||
Note that no revocation check is done for the recipient cert, so if that
|
||||
key has been compromised, others may be able to decrypt the text.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-decrypt>
|
||||
|
||||
decrypt mail using the supplied certificate and private key. Expects an
|
||||
encrypted mail message in MIME format for the input file. The decrypted mail
|
||||
is written to the output file.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-sign>
|
||||
|
||||
sign mail using the supplied certificate and private key. Input file is
|
||||
the message to be signed. The signed message in MIME format is written
|
||||
to the output file.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-verify>
|
||||
|
||||
verify signed mail. Expects a signed mail message on input and outputs
|
||||
the signed data. Both clear text and opaque signing is supported.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-pk7out>
|
||||
|
||||
takes an input message and writes out a PEM encoded PKCS#7 structure.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-resign>
|
||||
|
||||
resign a message: take an existing message and one or more new signers.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-in filename>
|
||||
|
||||
the input message to be encrypted or signed or the MIME message to
|
||||
be decrypted or verified.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-inform SMIME|PEM|DER>
|
||||
|
||||
this specifies the input format for the PKCS#7 structure. The default
|
||||
is B<SMIME> which reads an S/MIME format message. B<PEM> and B<DER>
|
||||
format change this to expect PEM and DER format PKCS#7 structures
|
||||
instead. This currently only affects the input format of the PKCS#7
|
||||
structure, if no PKCS#7 structure is being input (for example with
|
||||
B<-encrypt> or B<-sign>) this option has no effect.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-out filename>
|
||||
|
||||
the message text that has been decrypted or verified or the output MIME
|
||||
format message that has been signed or verified.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-outform SMIME|PEM|DER>
|
||||
|
||||
this specifies the output format for the PKCS#7 structure. The default
|
||||
is B<SMIME> which write an S/MIME format message. B<PEM> and B<DER>
|
||||
format change this to write PEM and DER format PKCS#7 structures
|
||||
instead. This currently only affects the output format of the PKCS#7
|
||||
structure, if no PKCS#7 structure is being output (for example with
|
||||
B<-verify> or B<-decrypt>) this option has no effect.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-stream -indef -noindef>
|
||||
|
||||
the B<-stream> and B<-indef> options are equivalent and enable streaming I/O
|
||||
for encoding operations. This permits single pass processing of data without
|
||||
the need to hold the entire contents in memory, potentially supporting very
|
||||
large files. Streaming is automatically set for S/MIME signing with detached
|
||||
data if the output format is B<SMIME> it is currently off by default for all
|
||||
other operations.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-noindef>
|
||||
|
||||
disable streaming I/O where it would produce and indefinite length constructed
|
||||
encoding. This option currently has no effect. In future streaming will be
|
||||
enabled by default on all relevant operations and this option will disable it.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-content filename>
|
||||
|
||||
This specifies a file containing the detached content, this is only
|
||||
useful with the B<-verify> command. This is only usable if the PKCS#7
|
||||
structure is using the detached signature form where the content is
|
||||
not included. This option will override any content if the input format
|
||||
is S/MIME and it uses the multipart/signed MIME content type.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-text>
|
||||
|
||||
this option adds plain text (text/plain) MIME headers to the supplied
|
||||
message if encrypting or signing. If decrypting or verifying it strips
|
||||
off text headers: if the decrypted or verified message is not of MIME
|
||||
type text/plain then an error occurs.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-CAfile file>
|
||||
|
||||
a file containing trusted CA certificates, only used with B<-verify>.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-CApath dir>
|
||||
|
||||
a directory containing trusted CA certificates, only used with
|
||||
B<-verify>. This directory must be a standard certificate directory: that
|
||||
is a hash of each subject name (using B<x509 -hash>) should be linked
|
||||
to each certificate.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-md digest>
|
||||
|
||||
digest algorithm to use when signing or resigning. If not present then the
|
||||
default digest algorithm for the signing key will be used (usually SHA1).
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-[cipher]>
|
||||
|
||||
the encryption algorithm to use. For example DES (56 bits) - B<-des>,
|
||||
triple DES (168 bits) - B<-des3>,
|
||||
EVP_get_cipherbyname() function) can also be used preceded by a dash, for
|
||||
example B<-aes_128_cbc>. See L<B<enc>|enc(1)> for list of ciphers
|
||||
supported by your version of OpenSSL.
|
||||
|
||||
If not specified triple DES is used. Only used with B<-encrypt>.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-nointern>
|
||||
|
||||
when verifying a message normally certificates (if any) included in
|
||||
the message are searched for the signing certificate. With this option
|
||||
only the certificates specified in the B<-certfile> option are used.
|
||||
The supplied certificates can still be used as untrusted CAs however.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-noverify>
|
||||
|
||||
do not verify the signers certificate of a signed message.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-nochain>
|
||||
|
||||
do not do chain verification of signers certificates: that is don't
|
||||
use the certificates in the signed message as untrusted CAs.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-nosigs>
|
||||
|
||||
don't try to verify the signatures on the message.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-nocerts>
|
||||
|
||||
when signing a message the signer's certificate is normally included
|
||||
with this option it is excluded. This will reduce the size of the
|
||||
signed message but the verifier must have a copy of the signers certificate
|
||||
available locally (passed using the B<-certfile> option for example).
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-noattr>
|
||||
|
||||
normally when a message is signed a set of attributes are included which
|
||||
include the signing time and supported symmetric algorithms. With this
|
||||
option they are not included.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-binary>
|
||||
|
||||
normally the input message is converted to "canonical" format which is
|
||||
effectively using CR and LF as end of line: as required by the S/MIME
|
||||
specification. When this option is present no translation occurs. This
|
||||
is useful when handling binary data which may not be in MIME format.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-nodetach>
|
||||
|
||||
when signing a message use opaque signing: this form is more resistant
|
||||
to translation by mail relays but it cannot be read by mail agents that
|
||||
do not support S/MIME. Without this option cleartext signing with
|
||||
the MIME type multipart/signed is used.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-certfile file>
|
||||
|
||||
allows additional certificates to be specified. When signing these will
|
||||
be included with the message. When verifying these will be searched for
|
||||
the signers certificates. The certificates should be in PEM format.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-signer file>
|
||||
|
||||
a signing certificate when signing or resigning a message, this option can be
|
||||
used multiple times if more than one signer is required. If a message is being
|
||||
verified then the signers certificates will be written to this file if the
|
||||
verification was successful.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-recip file>
|
||||
|
||||
the recipients certificate when decrypting a message. This certificate
|
||||
must match one of the recipients of the message or an error occurs.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-inkey file>
|
||||
|
||||
the private key to use when signing or decrypting. This must match the
|
||||
corresponding certificate. If this option is not specified then the
|
||||
private key must be included in the certificate file specified with
|
||||
the B<-recip> or B<-signer> file. When signing this option can be used
|
||||
multiple times to specify successive keys.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-passin arg>
|
||||

see the B<PASS PHRASE ARGUMENTS> section in L<openssl(1)|openssl(1)>.
|

=item B<-rand file(s)>
|
||||
|

a file or files containing random data used to seed the random number
|
||||
generator, or an EGD socket (see L<RAND_egd(3)|RAND_egd(3)>).
|
||||
Multiple files can be specified separated by a OS-dependent character.
|
||||
The separator is B<;> for MS-Windows, B<,> for OpenVMS, and B<:> for
|
||||
all others.
|

|

=item B<cert.pem...>
|

a message.
|

|

=item B<-to, -from, -subject>
|
||||
|
||||
the relevant mail headers. These are included outside the signed
|
||||
portion of a message so they may be included manually. If signing
|
||||
then many S/MIME mail clients check the signers certificate's email
|
||||
address matches that specified in the From: address.

|
||||
|
||||
=head1 NOTES
|
||||
|
||||
The MIME message must be sent without any blank lines between the
|
||||
headers and the output. Some mail programs will automatically add
|
||||
a blank line. Piping the mail directly to sendmail is one way to
|
||||
achieve the correct format.
|
||||
|
||||
The supplied message to be signed or encrypted must include the
|
||||
necessary MIME headers or many S/MIME clients wont display it
|
||||
properly (if at all). You can use the B<-text> option to automatically
|
||||
add plain text headers.
|
||||
|
||||
A "signed and encrypted" message is one where a signed message is
|
||||
then encrypted. This can be produced by encrypting an already signed
|
||||
message: see the examples section.
|
||||
|
||||
This version of the program only allows one signer per message but it
|
||||
will verify multiple signers on received messages. Some S/MIME clients
|
||||
choke if a message contains multiple signers. It is possible to sign
|
||||
messages "in parallel" by signing an already signed message.
|
||||
|
||||
The options B<-encrypt> and B<-decrypt> reflect common usage in S/MIME
|
||||
clients. Strictly speaking these process PKCS#7 enveloped data: PKCS#7
|
||||
encrypted data is used for other purposes.
|
||||
|
||||
The B<-resign> option uses an existing message digest when adding a new
|
||||
signer. This means that attributes must be present in at least one existing
|
||||
signer using the same message digest or this operation will fail.
|
||||
|
||||
The B<-stream> and B<-indef> options enable experimental streaming I/O support.
|
||||
As a result the encoding is BER using indefinite length constructed encoding
|
||||
and no longer DER. Streaming is supported for the B<-encrypt> operation and the
|
||||
B<-sign> operation if the content is not detached.
|
||||
|
||||
Streaming is always used for the B<-sign> operation with detached data but
|
||||
since the content is no longer part of the PKCS#7 structure the encoding
|
||||
remains DER.

=back
|
||||
|

=head1 EXAMPLES
|
||||
|
||||
Create a cleartext signed message:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl smime -sign -in message.txt -text -out mail.msg \
|
||||
-signer mycert.pem
|
||||
|
||||
Create an opaque signed message:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl smime -sign -in message.txt -text -out mail.msg -nodetach \
|
||||
-signer mycert.pem
|
||||
|
||||
Create a signed message, include some additional certificates and
|
||||
read the private key from another file:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl smime -sign -in in.txt -text -out mail.msg \
|
||||
-signer mycert.pem -inkey mykey.pem -certfile mycerts.pem
|
||||
|
||||
Create a signed message with two signers:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl smime -sign -in message.txt -text -out mail.msg \
|
||||
-signer mycert.pem -signer othercert.pem
|
||||
|
||||
Send a signed message under Unix directly to sendmail, including headers:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl smime -sign -in in.txt -text -signer mycert.pem \
|
||||
-from steve@openssl.org -to someone@somewhere \
|
||||
-subject "Signed message" | sendmail someone@somewhere
|
||||
|
||||
Verify a message and extract the signer's certificate if successful:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl smime -verify -in mail.msg -signer user.pem -out signedtext.txt
|
||||
|
||||
Send encrypted mail using triple DES:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl smime -encrypt -in in.txt -from steve@openssl.org \
|
||||
-to someone@somewhere -subject "Encrypted message" \
|
||||
-des3 user.pem -out mail.msg
|
||||
|
||||
Sign and encrypt mail:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl smime -sign -in ml.txt -signer my.pem -text \
|
||||
| openssl smime -encrypt -out mail.msg \
|
||||
-from steve@openssl.org -to someone@somewhere \
|
||||
-subject "Signed and Encrypted message" -des3 user.pem
|
||||
|
||||
Note: the encryption command does not include the B<-text> option because the
|
||||
message being encrypted already has MIME headers.
|
||||
|
||||
Decrypt mail:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl smime -decrypt -in mail.msg -recip mycert.pem -inkey key.pem
|
||||
|
||||
The output from Netscape form signing is a PKCS#7 structure with the
|
||||
detached signature format. You can use this program to verify the
|
||||
signature by line wrapping the base64 encoded structure and surrounding
|
||||
it with:
|
||||
|
||||
-----BEGIN PKCS7-----
|
||||
-----END PKCS7-----
|
||||
|
||||
and using the command:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl smime -verify -inform PEM -in signature.pem -content content.txt
|
||||
|
||||
Alternatively you can base64 decode the signature and use:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl smime -verify -inform DER -in signature.der -content content.txt
|
||||
|
||||
Create an encrypted message using 128 bit Camellia:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl smime -encrypt -in plain.txt -camellia128 -out mail.msg cert.pem
|
||||
|
||||
Add a signer to an existing message:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl smime -resign -in mail.msg -signer newsign.pem -out mail2.msg
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 BUGS
|
||||
|
||||
The MIME parser isn't very clever: it seems to handle most messages that I've
|
||||
thrown at it but it may choke on others.
|
||||
|
||||
The code currently will only write out the signer's certificate to a file: if
|
||||
the signer has a separate encryption certificate this must be manually
|
||||
extracted. There should be some heuristic that determines the correct
|
||||
encryption certificate.
|
||||
|
||||
Ideally a database should be maintained of a certificates for each email
|
||||
address.
|
||||
|
||||
The code doesn't currently take note of the permitted symmetric encryption
|
||||
algorithms as supplied in the SMIMECapabilities signed attribute. This means the
|
||||
user has to manually include the correct encryption algorithm. It should store
|
||||
the list of permitted ciphers in a database and only use those.
|
||||
|
||||
No revocation checking is done on the signer's certificate.
|
||||
|
||||
The current code can only handle S/MIME v2 messages, the more complex S/MIME v3
|
||||
structures may cause parsing errors.
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 HISTORY
|
||||
|
||||
The use of multiple B<-signer> options and the B<-resign> command were first
|
||||
added in OpenSSL 1.0.0
|
||||
|
||||
The -no_alt_chains options was first added to OpenSSL 1.0.2b.

||||
SPKAC. The default is "SPKAC". This option affects both
|
||||
generated and input SPKAC files.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-spksect section>
|
||||
|

allows an alternative name form the section containing the
|
||||
SPKAC. The default is the default section.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-noout>
|
||||
|

=head1 NOTES
|
||||
|
||||
A created SPKAC with suitable DN components appended can be fed into
|
||||
the B<ca> utility.
|
||||
|
||||
SPKACs are typically generated by Netscape when a form is submitted
|
||||
containing the B<KEYGEN> tag as part of the certificate enrollment
|
||||
process.
|
||||
|
||||
The challenge string permits a primitive form of proof of possession
|
||||
of private key. By checking the SPKAC signature and a random challenge
|
||||
string some guarantee is given that the user knows the private key
|
||||
corresponding to the public key being certified. This is important in
|
||||
some applications. Without this it is possible for a previous SPKAC
|
||||
to be used in a "replay attack".

=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
||||
|
||||
The B<ts> command is a basic Time Stamping Authority (TSA) client and server
|
||||
application as specified in RFC 3161 (Time-Stamp Protocol, TSP). A
|
||||
TSA can be part of a PKI deployment and its role is to provide long
|
||||
term proof of the existence of a certain datum before a particular
|
||||
time. Here is a brief description of the protocol:
|
||||
|
||||
=over 4
|
||||
|
||||
=item 1.
|
||||
|
||||
The TSA client computes a one-way hash value for a data file and sends
|
||||
the hash to the TSA.
|
||||
|
||||
=item 2.
|
||||
|
||||
The TSA attaches the current date and time to the received hash value,
|
||||
signs them and sends the time stamp token back to the client. By
|
||||
creating this token the TSA certifies the existence of the original
|
||||
data file at the time of response generation.
|
||||
|
||||
=item 3.
|
||||
|
||||
The TSA client receives the time stamp token and verifies the
|
||||
signature on it. It also checks if the token contains the same hash
|
||||
value that it had sent to the TSA.
|
||||
|
||||
=back
|
||||
|
||||
There is one DER encoded protocol data unit defined for transporting a time
|
||||
stamp request to the TSA and one for sending the time stamp response
|
||||
back to the client. The B<ts> command has three main functions:
|
||||
creating a time stamp request based on a data file,
|
||||
creating a time stamp response based on a request, verifying if a
|
||||
response corresponds to a particular request or a data file.
|
||||
|
||||
There is no support for sending the requests/responses automatically
|
||||
over HTTP or TCP yet as suggested in RFC 3161. The users must send the
|
||||
requests either by ftp or e-mail.
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 OPTIONS
|
||||
|
||||
=head2 Time Stamp Request generation
|
||||
|
||||
The B<-query> switch can be used for creating and printing a time stamp
|
||||
request with the following options:
|
||||
|
||||
=over 4
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-rand> file:file...
|
||||
|
||||
The files containing random data for seeding the random number
|
||||
generator. Multiple files can be specified, the separator is B<;> for
|
||||
MS-Windows, B<,> for VMS and B<:> for all other platforms. (Optional)
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-config> configfile
|
||||
|
||||
The configuration file to use, this option overrides the
|
||||
B<OPENSSL_CONF> environment variable. Only the OID section

parameter is specified. (Optional)
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-digest> digest_bytes
|
||||
|
||||
It is possible to specify the message imprint explicitly without the data
|
||||
file. The imprint must be specified in a hexadecimal format, two characters
|
||||
per byte, the bytes optionally separated by colons (e.g. 1A:F6:01:... or

||||
|
||||
=item B<-policy> object_id
|
||||
|
||||
The policy that the client expects the TSA to use for creating the
|
||||
time stamp token. Either the dotted OID notation or OID names defined

in the config file can be used. If no policy is requested the TSA will
|
||||
use its own default policy. (Optional)
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-no_nonce>
|
||||
|
||||
No nonce is specified in the request if this option is
|
||||
given. Otherwise a 64 bit long pseudo-random none is
|

included in the request. It is recommended to use nonce to
|
||||
protect against replay-attacks. (Optional)
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-cert>
|
||||
|
||||
The TSA is expected to include its signing certificate in the
|
||||
response. (Optional)
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-in> request.tsq
|
||||
|
||||
This option specifies a previously created time stamp request in DER
|
||||
format that will be printed into the output file. Useful when you need
|

=head2 Time Stamp Response generation
|
||||
|
||||
A time stamp response (TimeStampResp) consists of a response status
|
||||
and the time stamp token itself (ContentInfo), if the token generation was
|
||||
successful. The B<-reply> command is for creating a time stamp
|
||||
response or time stamp token based on a request and printing the
|
||||
response/token in human-readable format. If B<-token_out> is not
|
||||
specified the output is always a time stamp response (TimeStampResp),
|
||||
otherwise it is a time stamp token (ContentInfo).
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-config> configfile
|
||||
|

|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-signer> tsa_cert.pem
|
||||
|
||||
The signer certificate of the TSA in PEM format. The TSA signing
|
||||
certificate must have exactly one extended key usage assigned to it:
|
||||
timeStamping. The extended key usage must also be critical, otherwise
|
||||
the certificate is going to be refused. Overrides the B<signer_cert>
|
||||
variable of the config file. (Optional)

||||
|
||||
The collection of certificates in PEM format that will all
|
||||
be included in the response in addition to the signer certificate if
|
||||
the B<-cert> option was used for the request. This file is supposed to
|
||||
contain the certificate chain for the signer certificate from its
|
||||
issuer upwards. The B<-reply> command does not build a certificate
|
||||
chain automatically. (Optional)
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-policy> object_id
|
||||
|
||||
The default policy to use for the response unless the client
|
||||
explicitly requires a particular TSA policy. The OID can be specified
|
||||
either in dotted notation or with its name. Overrides the
|
||||
B<default_policy> config file option. (Optional)
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-in> response.tsr
|
||||
|
||||
Specifies a previously created time stamp response or time stamp token
|
||||
(if B<-token_in> is also specified) in DER format that will be written
|
||||
to the output file. This option does not require a request, it is
|
||||
useful e.g. when you need to examine the content of a response or
|
||||
token or you want to extract the time stamp token from a response. If
|
||||
the input is a token and the output is a time stamp response a default
|
||||
'granted' status info is added to the token. (Optional)
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-token_in>
|
||||
|
||||
This flag can be used together with the B<-in> option and indicates
|
||||
that the input is a DER encoded time stamp token (ContentInfo) instead
|
||||
of a time stamp response (TimeStampResp). (Optional)
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-out> response.tsr
|
||||
|
||||
The response is written to this file. The format and content of the
|
||||
file depends on other options (see B<-text>, B<-token_out>). The default is
|
||||
stdout. (Optional)
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-token_out>
|
||||
|
||||
The output is a time stamp token (ContentInfo) instead of time stamp
|
||||
response (TimeStampResp). (Optional)
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-text>
|
||||
|
||||
If this option is specified the output is human-readable text format
|
||||
instead of DER. (Optional)
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-engine> id
|
||||
|
||||
Specifying an engine (by its unique B<id> string) will cause B<ts>
|
||||
to attempt to obtain a functional reference to the specified engine,
|
||||
thus initialising it if needed. The engine will then be set as the default
|

=head1 CONFIGURATION FILE OPTIONS
|
||||
|
||||
The B<-query> and B<-reply> commands make use of a configuration file
|
||||
defined by the B<OPENSSL_CONF> environment variable. See L<config(5)|config(5)>
|
||||
for a general description of the syntax of the config file. The
|
||||
B<-query> command uses only the symbolic OID names section
|
||||
and it can work without it. However, the B<-reply> command needs the
|
||||
config file for its operation.
|
||||
|
||||
When there is a command line switch equivalent of a variable the
|
||||
switch always overrides the settings in the config file.

|
||||
=over 4
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<tsa> section, B<default_tsa>
|
||||

|
||||
last time stamp response created. This number is incremented by 1 for
|
||||
each response. If the file does not exist at the time of response
|
||||
generation a new file is created with serial number 1. (Mandatory)
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<crypto_device>
|
||||
|

=item B<clock_precision_digits>
|
||||
|
||||
Specifies the maximum number of digits, which represent the fraction of

=item B<ordering>
|
||||
|
||||
If this option is yes the responses generated by this TSA can always
|
||||
be ordered, even if the time difference between two responses is less
|
||||
than the sum of their accuracies. Default is no. (Optional)
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<tsa_name>
|
||||
|
||||
Set this option to yes if the subject name of the TSA must be included in
|
||||
the TSA name field of the response. Default is no. (Optional)
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<ess_cert_id_chain>
|
||||
|
||||
The SignedData objects created by the TSA always contain the
|
||||
certificate identifier of the signing certificate in a signed
|
||||
attribute (see RFC 2634, Enhanced Security Services). If this option
|
||||
is set to yes and either the B<certs> variable or the B<-chain> option
|
||||
is specified then the certificate identifiers of the chain will also
|
||||
be included in the SigningCertificate signed attribute. If this
|

variable is set to no, only the signing certificate identifier is
|
||||
included. Default is no. (Optional)

=head1 ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
|
||||
|
||||
B<OPENSSL_CONF> contains the path of the configuration file and can be
|
||||
overridden by the B<-config> command line option.
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 EXAMPLES
|
||||
|
||||
All the examples below presume that B<OPENSSL_CONF> is set to a proper
|
||||
configuration file, e.g. the example configuration file
|
||||
openssl/apps/openssl.cnf will do.
|
||||
|
||||
=head2 Time Stamp Request
|
||||
|
||||
To create a time stamp request for design1.txt with SHA-1
|
||||
without nonce and policy and no certificate is required in the response:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl ts -query -data design1.txt -no_nonce \
|
||||
-out design1.tsq
|
||||
|
||||
To create a similar time stamp request with specifying the message imprint
|
||||
explicitly:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl ts -query -digest b7e5d3f93198b38379852f2c04e78d73abdd0f4b \
|
||||
-no_nonce -out design1.tsq
|
||||
|
||||
To print the content of the previous request in human readable format:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl ts -query -in design1.tsq -text
|
||||
|
||||
To create a time stamp request which includes the MD-5 digest
|
||||
of design2.txt, requests the signer certificate and nonce,
|
||||
specifies a policy id (assuming the tsa_policy1 name is defined in the
|
||||
OID section of the config file):
|
||||
|
||||
openssl ts -query -data design2.txt -md5 \
|
||||
-policy tsa_policy1 -cert -out design2.tsq
|
||||
|
||||
=head2 Time Stamp Response
|
||||
|
||||
Before generating a response a signing certificate must be created for
|
||||
the TSA that contains the B<timeStamping> critical extended key usage extension
|
||||
without any other key usage extensions. You can add the
|
||||
'extendedKeyUsage = critical,timeStamping' line to the user certificate section
|
||||
of the config file to generate a proper certificate. See L<req(1)|req(1)>,
|
||||
L<ca(1)|ca(1)>, L<x509(1)|x509(1)> for instructions. The examples
|
||||
below assume that cacert.pem contains the certificate of the CA,
|
||||
tsacert.pem is the signing certificate issued by cacert.pem and
|
||||
tsakey.pem is the private key of the TSA.
|
||||
|
||||
To create a time stamp response for a request:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl ts -reply -queryfile design1.tsq -inkey tsakey.pem \
|
||||
-signer tsacert.pem -out design1.tsr
|
||||
|
||||
If you want to use the settings in the config file you could just write:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl ts -reply -queryfile design1.tsq -out design1.tsr
|
||||
|
||||
To print a time stamp reply to stdout in human readable format:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl ts -reply -in design1.tsr -text
|
||||
|
||||
To create a time stamp token instead of time stamp response:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl ts -reply -queryfile design1.tsq -out design1_token.der -token_out
|
||||
|
||||
To print a time stamp token to stdout in human readable format:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl ts -reply -in design1_token.der -token_in -text -token_out
|
||||
|
||||
To extract the time stamp token from a response:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl ts -reply -in design1.tsr -out design1_token.der -token_out
|
||||
|
||||
To add 'granted' status info to a time stamp token thereby creating a
|
||||
valid response:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl ts -reply -in design1_token.der -token_in -out design1.tsr
|
||||
|
||||
=head2 Time Stamp Verification
|
||||
|
||||
To verify a time stamp reply against a request:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl ts -verify -queryfile design1.tsq -in design1.tsr \
|
||||
-CAfile cacert.pem -untrusted tsacert.pem
|
||||
|
||||
To verify a time stamp reply that includes the certificate chain:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl ts -verify -queryfile design2.tsq -in design2.tsr \
|
||||
-CAfile cacert.pem
|
||||
|
||||
To verify a time stamp token against the original data file:
|
||||
openssl ts -verify -data design2.txt -in design2.tsr \
|
||||
-CAfile cacert.pem
|
||||
|
||||
To verify a time stamp token against a message imprint:
|
||||
openssl ts -verify -digest b7e5d3f93198b38379852f2c04e78d73abdd0f4b \
|
||||
-in design2.tsr -CAfile cacert.pem
|
||||

|
||||
Zoltan Glozik <zglozik@opentsa.org>. Known issues:
|
||||
|
||||
=over 4
|
||||
|
||||
=item * No support for time stamps over SMTP, though it is quite easy
|
||||
to implement an automatic e-mail based TSA with L<procmail(1)|procmail(1)>
|
||||
and L<perl(1)|perl(1)>. HTTP server support is provided in the form of
|
||||
a separate apache module. HTTP client support is provided by
|
||||
L<tsget(1)|tsget(1)>. Pure TCP/IP protocol is not supported.
|
||||
|
||||
=item * The file containing the last serial number of the TSA is not
|
||||
locked when being read or written. This is a problem if more than one
|
||||
instance of L<openssl(1)|openssl(1)> is trying to create a time stamp
|
||||
response at the same time. This is not an issue when using the apache
|
||||
server module, it does proper locking.
|
||||
|
||||
=item * Look for the FIXME word in the source files.
|
||||
|
||||
=item * The source code should really be reviewed by somebody else, too.
|
||||
|
||||
=item * More testing is needed, I have done only some basic tests (see
|
||||
test/testtsa).

=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
||||
|
||||
The B<tsget> command can be used for sending a time stamp request, as
|
||||
specified in B<RFC 3161>, to a time stamp server over HTTP or HTTPS and storing
|
||||
the time stamp response in a file. This tool cannot be used for creating the
|
||||
requests and verifying responses, you can use the OpenSSL B<ts(1)> command to
|
||||
do that. B<tsget> can send several requests to the server without closing
|
||||
the TCP connection if more than one requests are specified on the command
|
||||
line.
|
||||
|
||||
The tool sends the following HTTP request for each time stamp request:
|
||||
|
||||
POST url HTTP/1.1
|
||||
User-Agent: OpenTSA tsget.pl/<version>
|
||||
Host: <host>:<port>
|
||||
Pragma: no-cache
|
||||
Content-Type: application/timestamp-query
|
||||
Accept: application/timestamp-reply
|
||||
Content-Length: length of body
|
||||
|
||||
...binary request specified by the user...
|
||||
|
||||
B<tsget> expects a response of type application/timestamp-reply, which is
|
||||
written to a file without any interpretation.
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 OPTIONS
|
||||
|
||||
=over 4
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-h> server_url
|
||||
|
||||
The URL of the HTTP/HTTPS server listening for time stamp requests.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-e> extension
|
||||
|
||||
If the B<-o> option is not given this argument specifies the extension of the
|
||||
output files. The base name of the output file will be the same as those of
|
||||
the input files. Default extension is '.tsr'. (Optional)
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-o> output
|
||||
|
||||
This option can be specified only when just one request is sent to the
|
||||
server. The time stamp response will be written to the given output file. '-'
|
||||
means standard output. In case of multiple time stamp requests or the absence
|
||||
of this argument the names of the output files will be derived from the names
|
||||
of the input files and the default or specified extension argument. (Optional)
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-v>
|
||||
|
||||
The name of the currently processed request is printed on standard
|
||||
error. (Optional)
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-d>
|
||||
|
||||
Switches on verbose mode for the underlying B<curl> library. You can see
|
||||
detailed debug messages for the connection. (Optional)
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-k> private_key.pem
|
||||
|
||||
(HTTPS) In case of certificate-based client authentication over HTTPS
|

<private_key.pem> must contain the private key of the user. The private key
|
||||
file can optionally be protected by a passphrase. The B<-c> option must also
|
||||
be specified. (Optional)
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-p> key_password
|
||||
|
||||
(HTTPS) Specifies the passphrase for the private key specified by the B<-k>
|
||||
argument. If this option is omitted and the key is passphrase protected B<tsget>
|

will ask for it. (Optional)
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-c> client_cert.pem
|
||||
|
||||
(HTTPS) In case of certificate-based client authentication over HTTPS
|
||||
<client_cert.pem> must contain the X.509 certificate of the user. The B<-k>
|
||||
option must also be specified. If this option is not specified no
|
||||
certificate-based client authentication will take place. (Optional)
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-C> CA_certs.pem
|
||||
|
||||
(HTTPS) The trusted CA certificate store. The certificate chain of the peer's

|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-P> CA_path
|
||||
|
||||
(HTTPS) The path containing the trusted CA certificates to verify the peer's
|
||||
certificate. The directory must be prepared with the B<c_rehash>

OpenSSL utility. Either option B<-C> or option B<-P> must be given in case of
|
||||
HTTPS. (Optional)
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-rand> file:file...
|
||||
|
||||
The files containing random data for seeding the random number
|
||||
generator. Multiple files can be specified, the separator is B<;> for
|
||||
MS-Windows, B<,> for VMS and B<:> for all other platforms. (Optional)
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-g> EGD_socket
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
=item [request]...
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
requests are specified only one request will be sent to the server and it will be
|
||||
read from the standard input. (Optional)
|
||||
|
||||
=back
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
|
||||
|
||||
The B<TSGET> environment variable can optionally contain default
|
||||
arguments. The content of this variable is added to the list of command line
|
||||
arguments.
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 EXAMPLES
|
||||
|
||||
The examples below presume that B<file1.tsq> and B<file2.tsq> contain valid
|
||||
time stamp requests, tsa.opentsa.org listens at port 8080 for HTTP requests
|
||||
and at port 8443 for HTTPS requests, the TSA service is available at the /tsa
|
||||
absolute path.
|
||||
|
||||
Get a time stamp response for file1.tsq over HTTP, output is written to
|
||||
file1.tsr:
|
||||
|
||||
tsget -h http://tsa.opentsa.org:8080/tsa file1.tsq
|
||||
|
||||
Get a time stamp response for file1.tsq and file2.tsq over HTTP showing
|
||||
progress, output is written to file1.reply and file2.reply respectively:
|
||||
|
||||
tsget -h http://tsa.opentsa.org:8080/tsa -v -e .reply \
|
||||
file1.tsq file2.tsq
|
||||
|
||||
Create a time stamp request, write it to file3.tsq, send it to the server and
|
||||
write the response to file3.tsr:
|
||||
|
||||
openssl ts -query -data file3.txt -cert | tee file3.tsq \
|
||||
| tsget -h http://tsa.opentsa.org:8080/tsa \
|
||||
-o file3.tsr
|
||||
|
||||
Get a time stamp response for file1.tsq over HTTPS without client
|
||||
authentication:
|
||||
|
||||
tsget -h https://tsa.opentsa.org:8443/tsa \
|
||||
-C cacerts.pem file1.tsq
|
||||
|
||||
Get a time stamp response for file1.tsq over HTTPS with certificate-based
|
||||
client authentication (it will ask for the passphrase if client_key.pem is
|
||||
protected):
|
||||
|
||||
tsget -h https://tsa.opentsa.org:8443/tsa -C cacerts.pem \
|
||||
-k client_key.pem -c client_cert.pem file1.tsq
|
||||
|
||||
You can shorten the previous command line if you make use of the B<TSGET>
|
||||
environment variable. The following commands do the same as the previous
|
||||
example:
|
||||
|
||||
TSGET='-h https://tsa.opentsa.org:8443/tsa -C cacerts.pem \
|
||||
-k client_key.pem -c client_cert.pem'
|
||||
export TSGET
|
||||
tsget file1.tsq

=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
||||
|
||||
The B<verify> command verifies certificate chains.
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 COMMAND OPTIONS
|
||||
|
||||
=over 4
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-CApath directory>
|
||||
|
||||
A directory of trusted certificates. The certificates should have names
|
||||
of the form: hash.0 or have symbolic links to them of this
|
||||
form ("hash" is the hashed certificate subject name: see the B<-hash> option
|
||||
of the B<x509> utility). Under Unix the B<c_rehash> script will automatically
|
||||
create symbolic links to a directory of certificates.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-CAfile file>
|
||||
A file of trusted certificates. The file should contain multiple certificates
|
||||
in PEM format concatenated together.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-attime timestamp>
|
||||
|
||||
Perform validation checks using time specified by B<timestamp> and not
|
||||
current system time. B<timestamp> is the number of seconds since
|
||||
01.01.1970 (UNIX time).
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-check_ss_sig>
|
||||
|
||||
Verify the signature on the self-signed root CA. This is disabled by default
|
||||
because it doesn't add any security.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-crlfile file>
|
||||
|
||||
File containing one or more CRL's (in PEM format) to load.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-crl_download>
|
||||
|
||||
Attempt to download CRL information for this certificate.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-crl_check>
|
||||
|
||||
Checks end entity certificate validity by attempting to look up a valid CRL.
|
||||
If a valid CRL cannot be found an error occurs.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-untrusted file>
|
||||
|
||||
A file of untrusted certificates. The file should contain multiple certificates
|
||||
in PEM format concatenated together.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-purpose purpose>
|
||||
|
||||
The intended use for the certificate. If this option is not specified,
|
||||
B<verify> will not consider certificate purpose during chain verification.
|
||||
Currently accepted uses are B<sslclient>, B<sslserver>, B<nssslserver>,
|
||||
B<smimesign>, B<smimeencrypt>. See the B<VERIFY OPERATION> section for more
|
||||
information.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-help>
|
||||
|
||||
Print out a usage message.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-verbose>
|
||||
|
||||
Print extra information about the operations being performed.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-issuer_checks>
|
||||
|
||||
Print out diagnostics relating to searches for the issuer certificate of the
|
||||
current certificate. This shows why each candidate issuer certificate was
|
||||
rejected. The presence of rejection messages does not itself imply that
|
||||
anything is wrong; during the normal verification process, several
|
||||
rejections may take place.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-policy arg>
|
||||
|
||||
Enable policy processing and add B<arg> to the user-initial-policy-set (see
|
||||
RFC5280). The policy B<arg> can be an object name an OID in numeric form.
|
||||
This argument can appear more than once.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-policy_check>
|
||||
|
||||
Enables certificate policy processing.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-explicit_policy>
|
||||
|
||||
Set policy variable require-explicit-policy (see RFC5280).
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-inhibit_any>
|
||||
|
||||
Set policy variable inhibit-any-policy (see RFC5280).
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-inhibit_map>
|
||||
|
||||
Set policy variable inhibit-policy-mapping (see RFC5280).
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-no_alt_chains>
|
||||
|
||||
When building a certificate chain, if the first certificate chain found is not
|
||||
trusted, then OpenSSL will continue to check to see if an alternative chain can
|
||||
be found that is trusted. With this option that behaviour is suppressed so that
|
||||
only the first chain found is ever used. Using this option will force the
|
||||
behaviour to match that of previous OpenSSL versions.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-allow_proxy_certs>
|
||||
|
||||
Allow the verification of proxy certificates.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-trusted file>
|
||||
|
||||
A file of additional trusted certificates. The file should contain multiple
|
||||
certificates in PEM format concatenated together.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-policy_print>
|
||||
|
||||
Print out diagnostics related to policy processing.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-crl_check>
|
||||
|
||||
Checks end entity certificate validity by attempting to look up a valid CRL.
|
||||
If a valid CRL cannot be found an error occurs.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-crl_check_all>
|
||||
|
||||
Checks the validity of B<all> certificates in the chain by attempting
|
||||
to look up valid CRLs.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-ignore_critical>
|
||||
|
||||
Normally if an unhandled critical extension is present which is not
|
||||
supported by OpenSSL the certificate is rejected (as required by RFC5280).
|
||||
If this option is set critical extensions are ignored.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-x509_strict>
|
||||
|
||||
For strict X.509 compliance, disable non-compliant workarounds for broken
|
||||
certificates.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-extended_crl>
|
||||
|
||||
Enable extended CRL features such as indirect CRLs and alternate CRL
|
||||
signing keys.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-use_deltas>
|
||||
|
||||
Enable support for delta CRLs.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-check_ss_sig>
|
||||
|
||||
Verify the signature on the self-signed root CA. This is disabled by default
|
||||
because it doesn't add any security.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<->
|
||||
|
||||
Indicates the last option. All arguments following this are assumed to be
|
||||
certificate files. This is useful if the first certificate filename begins
|
||||
with a B<->.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<certificates>
|
||||
|
||||
One or more certificates to verify. If no certificates are given, B<verify>
|
||||
will attempt to read a certificate from standard input. Certificates must be
|
||||
in PEM format.
|
||||
|
||||
=back
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 VERIFY OPERATION
|
||||
|
||||
The B<verify> program uses the same functions as the internal SSL and S/MIME
|
||||
verification, therefore this description applies to these verify operations
|
||||
too.
|
||||
|
||||
There is one crucial difference between the verify operations performed
|
||||
by the B<verify> program: wherever possible an attempt is made to continue
|
||||
after an error whereas normally the verify operation would halt on the
|
||||
first error. This allows all the problems with a certificate chain to be
|
||||
determined.
|
||||
|
||||
The verify operation consists of a number of separate steps.
|
||||
|
||||
Firstly a certificate chain is built up starting from the supplied certificate
|
||||
and ending in the root CA. It is an error if the whole chain cannot be built
|
||||
up. The chain is built up by looking up the issuers certificate of the current
|
||||
certificate. If a certificate is found which is its own issuer it is assumed
|
||||
to be the root CA.
|
||||
|
||||
The process of 'looking up the issuers certificate' itself involves a number
|
||||
of steps. In versions of OpenSSL before 0.9.5a the first certificate whose
|
||||
subject name matched the issuer of the current certificate was assumed to be
|
||||
the issuers certificate. In OpenSSL 0.9.6 and later all certificates
|
||||
whose subject name matches the issuer name of the current certificate are
|
||||
subject to further tests. The relevant authority key identifier components
|
||||
of the current certificate (if present) must match the subject key identifier
|
||||
(if present) and issuer and serial number of the candidate issuer, in addition
|
||||
the keyUsage extension of the candidate issuer (if present) must permit
|
||||
certificate signing.
|
||||
|
||||
The lookup first looks in the list of untrusted certificates and if no match
|
||||
is found the remaining lookups are from the trusted certificates. The root CA
|
||||
is always looked up in the trusted certificate list: if the certificate to
|
||||
verify is a root certificate then an exact match must be found in the trusted
|
||||
list.
|
||||
|
||||
The second operation is to check every untrusted certificate's extensions for
|
||||
consistency with the supplied purpose. If the B<-purpose> option is not included
|
||||
then no checks are done. The supplied or "leaf" certificate must have extensions
|
||||
compatible with the supplied purpose and all other certificates must also be valid
|
||||
CA certificates. The precise extensions required are described in more detail in
|
||||
the B<CERTIFICATE EXTENSIONS> section of the B<x509> utility.
|
||||
|
||||
The third operation is to check the trust settings on the root CA. The root
|
||||
CA should be trusted for the supplied purpose. For compatibility with previous
|
||||
versions of SSLeay and OpenSSL a certificate with no trust settings is considered
|
||||
to be valid for all purposes.
|
||||
|
||||
The final operation is to check the validity of the certificate chain. The validity
|
||||
period is checked against the current system time and the notBefore and notAfter
|
||||
dates in the certificate. The certificate signatures are also checked at this
|
||||
point.
|
||||
|
||||
If all operations complete successfully then certificate is considered valid. If
|
||||
any operation fails then the certificate is not valid.
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 DIAGNOSTICS
|
||||
|
||||
When a verify operation fails the output messages can be somewhat cryptic. The
|
||||
general form of the error message is:
|
||||
|
||||
server.pem: /C=AU/ST=Queensland/O=CryptSoft Pty Ltd/CN=Test CA (1024 bit)
|
||||
error 24 at 1 depth lookup:invalid CA certificate
|
||||
|
||||
The first line contains the name of the certificate being verified followed by
|
||||
the subject name of the certificate. The second line contains the error number
|
||||
and the depth. The depth is number of the certificate being verified when a
|
||||
problem was detected starting with zero for the certificate being verified itself
|
||||
then 1 for the CA that signed the certificate and so on. Finally a text version
|
||||
of the error number is presented.
|
||||
|
||||
An exhaustive list of the error codes and messages is shown below, this also
|
||||
includes the name of the error code as defined in the header file x509_vfy.h
|
||||
Some of the error codes are defined but never returned: these are described
|
||||
as "unused".
|
||||
|
||||
=over 4
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<0 X509_V_OK: ok>
|
||||
|
||||
the operation was successful.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<2 X509_V_ERR_UNABLE_TO_GET_ISSUER_CERT: unable to get issuer certificate>
|
||||
|
||||
the issuer certificate of a looked up certificate could not be found. This
|
||||
normally means the list of trusted certificates is not complete.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<3 X509_V_ERR_UNABLE_TO_GET_CRL: unable to get certificate CRL>
|
||||
|
||||
the CRL of a certificate could not be found.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<4 X509_V_ERR_UNABLE_TO_DECRYPT_CERT_SIGNATURE: unable to decrypt certificate's signature>
|
||||
|
||||
the certificate signature could not be decrypted. This means that the actual signature value
|
||||
could not be determined rather than it not matching the expected value, this is only
|
||||
meaningful for RSA keys.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<5 X509_V_ERR_UNABLE_TO_DECRYPT_CRL_SIGNATURE: unable to decrypt CRL's signature>
|
||||
|
||||
the CRL signature could not be decrypted: this means that the actual signature value

=head1 BUGS
|
||||
|
||||
Although the issuer checks are a considerable improvement over the old technique they still
|
||||
suffer from limitations in the underlying X509_LOOKUP API. One consequence of this is that
|
||||
trusted certificates with matching subject name must either appear in a file (as specified by the
|
||||
B<-CAfile> option) or a directory (as specified by B<-CApath>. If they occur in both then only
|
||||
the certificates in the file will be recognised.
|
||||
|
||||
Previous versions of OpenSSL assume certificates with matching subject name are identical and
|
||||
mishandled them.
|
||||
|
||||
Previous versions of this documentation swapped the meaning of the
|
||||
B<X509_V_ERR_UNABLE_TO_GET_ISSUER_CERT> and
|
||||
B<20 X509_V_ERR_UNABLE_TO_GET_ISSUER_CERT_LOCALLY> error codes.

=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
||||
|
||||
The B<x509> command is a multi purpose certificate utility. It can be
|
||||
used to display certificate information, convert certificates to
|
||||
various forms, sign certificate requests like a "mini CA" or edit
|
||||
certificate trust settings.
|
||||
|
||||
Since there are a large number of options they will split up into
|
||||
various sections.
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 OPTIONS
|
||||
|
||||
=head2 INPUT, OUTPUT AND GENERAL PURPOSE OPTIONS
|
||||
|
||||
=over 4
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-inform DER|PEM|NET>
|
||||
|
||||
This specifies the input format normally the command will expect an X509
|
||||
certificate but this can change if other options such as B<-req> are
|
||||
present. The DER format is the DER encoding of the certificate and PEM
|
||||
is the base64 encoding of the DER encoding with header and footer lines
|
||||
added. The NET option is an obscure Netscape server format that is now
|
||||
obsolete.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-outform DER|PEM|NET>
|
||||
|
||||
This specifies the output format, the options have the same meaning as the
|
||||
B<-inform> option.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-in filename>
|
||||
|
||||
This specifies the input filename to read a certificate from or standard input
|
||||
if this option is not specified.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-out filename>
|
||||
|
||||
This specifies the output filename to write to or standard output by
|
||||
default.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-md2|-md5|-sha1|-mdc2>
|
||||
|
||||
the digest to use. This affects any signing or display option that uses a message
|
||||
digest, such as the B<-fingerprint>, B<-signkey> and B<-CA> options. If not
|
||||
specified then SHA1 is used. If the key being used to sign with is a DSA key
|
||||
then this option has no effect: SHA1 is always used with DSA keys.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-engine id>
|
||||
|
||||
specifying an engine (by its unique B<id> string) will cause B<x509>
|
||||
to attempt to obtain a functional reference to the specified engine,
|
||||
thus initialising it if needed. The engine will then be set as the default
|
||||
for all available algorithms.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
=head2 DISPLAY OPTIONS
|
||||
|
||||
Note: the B<-alias> and B<-purpose> options are also display options
|
||||
but are described in the B<TRUST SETTINGS> section.
|
||||
|
||||
=over 4
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-text>
|
||||
|
||||
prints out the certificate in text form. Full details are output including the
|
||||
public key, signature algorithms, issuer and subject names, serial number
|
||||
any extensions present and any trust settings.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-certopt option>
|
||||
|
||||
customise the output format used with B<-text>. The B<option> argument can be
|
||||
a single option or multiple options separated by commas. The B<-certopt> switch
|
||||
may be also be used more than once to set multiple options. See the B<TEXT OPTIONS>
|
||||
section for more information.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-noout>
|
||||
|
||||
this option prevents output of the encoded version of the request.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-pubkey>
|
||||
|
||||
outputs the the certificate's SubjectPublicKeyInfo block in PEM format.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-modulus>
|
||||
|
||||
this option prints out the value of the modulus of the public key
|
||||
contained in the certificate.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-serial>
|
||||
|
||||
outputs the certificate serial number.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-subject_hash>
|
||||
|
||||
outputs the "hash" of the certificate subject name. This is used in OpenSSL to
|
||||
form an index to allow certificates in a directory to be looked up by subject
|
||||
name.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-issuer_hash>
|
||||
|
||||
outputs the "hash" of the certificate issuer name.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-ocspid>
|
||||
|
||||
outputs the OCSP hash values for the subject name and public key.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-hash>
|
||||
|
||||
synonym for "-subject_hash" for backward compatibility reasons.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-subject_hash_old>
|
||||
|
||||
outputs the "hash" of the certificate subject name using the older algorithm
|
||||
as used by OpenSSL versions before 1.0.0.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-issuer_hash_old>
|
||||
|
||||
outputs the "hash" of the certificate issuer name using the older algorithm
|
||||
as used by OpenSSL versions before 1.0.0.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-subject>
|
||||
|
||||
outputs the subject name.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-issuer>
|
||||
|
||||
outputs the issuer name.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-nameopt option>
|
||||
|
||||
option which determines how the subject or issuer names are displayed. The
|
||||
B<option> argument can be a single option or multiple options separated by
|
||||
commas. Alternatively the B<-nameopt> switch may be used more than once to
|
||||
set multiple options. See the B<NAME OPTIONS> section for more information.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-email>
|
||||
|
||||
outputs the email address(es) if any.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-ocsp_uri>
|
||||
|
||||
outputs the OCSP responder address(es) if any.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-startdate>
|
||||
|
||||
prints out the start date of the certificate, that is the notBefore date.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-enddate>
|
||||
|
||||
prints out the expiry date of the certificate, that is the notAfter date.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-dates>
|
||||
|
||||
prints out the start and expiry dates of a certificate.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-checkend arg>
|
||||
|
||||
checks if the certificate expires within the next B<arg> seconds and exits
|
||||
non-zero if yes it will expire or zero if not.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-fingerprint>
|
||||
|
||||
prints out the digest of the DER encoded version of the whole certificate
|
||||
(see digest options).
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-C>
|
||||
|
||||
this outputs the certificate in the form of a C source file.
|
||||
|
||||
=back
|
||||
|
||||
=head2 TRUST SETTINGS
|
||||
|
||||
Please note these options are currently experimental and may well change.
|
||||
|
||||
A B<trusted certificate> is an ordinary certificate which has several
|
||||
additional pieces of information attached to it such as the permitted
|
||||
and prohibited uses of the certificate and an "alias".
|
||||
|
||||
Normally when a certificate is being verified at least one certificate
|
||||
must be "trusted". By default a trusted certificate must be stored
|
||||
locally and must be a root CA: any certificate chain ending in this CA
|
||||
is then usable for any purpose.
|
||||
|
||||
Trust settings currently are only used with a root CA. They allow a finer
|
||||
control over the purposes the root CA can be used for. For example a CA
|
||||
may be trusted for SSL client but not SSL server use.
|
||||
|
||||
See the description of the B<verify> utility for more information on the
|
||||
meaning of trust settings.
|
||||
|
||||
Future versions of OpenSSL will recognize trust settings on any
|
||||
certificate: not just root CAs.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
=over 4
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-trustout>
|
||||
|
||||
this causes B<x509> to output a B<trusted> certificate. An ordinary
|
||||
or trusted certificate can be input but by default an ordinary
|
||||
certificate is output and any trust settings are discarded. With the
|
||||
B<-trustout> option a trusted certificate is output. A trusted
|
||||
certificate is automatically output if any trust settings are modified.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-setalias arg>
|
||||
|
||||
sets the alias of the certificate. This will allow the certificate
|
||||
to be referred to using a nickname for example "Steve's Certificate".
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-alias>
|
||||
|
||||
outputs the certificate alias, if any.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-clrtrust>
|
||||
|
||||
clears all the permitted or trusted uses of the certificate.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-clrreject>
|
||||
|
||||
clears all the prohibited or rejected uses of the certificate.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-addtrust arg>
|
||||
|
||||
adds a trusted certificate use. Any object name can be used here
|
||||
but currently only B<clientAuth> (SSL client use), B<serverAuth>
|
||||
(SSL server use) and B<emailProtection> (S/MIME email) are used.
|
||||
Other OpenSSL applications may define additional uses.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-addreject arg>
|
||||
|
||||
adds a prohibited use. It accepts the same values as the B<-addtrust>
|
||||
option.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-purpose>
|
||||
|
||||
this option performs tests on the certificate extensions and outputs
|
||||
the results. For a more complete description see the B<CERTIFICATE
|
||||
EXTENSIONS> section.

=head2 SIGNING OPTIONS
|

The B<x509> utility can be used to sign certificates and requests: it
|
||||
can thus behave like a "mini CA".

=item B<-signkey filename>
|
||||
|
||||
this option causes the input file to be self signed using the supplied
|
||||
private key.
|
||||
|
||||
If the input file is a certificate it sets the issuer name to the
|
||||
subject name (i.e. makes it self signed) changes the public key to the
|
||||
supplied value and changes the start and end dates. The start date is
|
||||
set to the current time and the end date is set to a value determined
|
||||
by the B<-days> option. Any certificate extensions are retained unless
|
||||
the B<-clrext> option is supplied.
|
||||
|
||||
If the input is a certificate request then a self signed certificate
|
||||
is created using the supplied private key using the subject name in
|
||||
the request.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-passin arg>
|
||||
|
||||
the key password source. For more information about the format of B<arg>
|
||||
see the B<PASS PHRASE ARGUMENTS> section in L<openssl(1)|openssl(1)>.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-clrext>
|
||||
|
||||
delete any extensions from a certificate. This option is used when a
|
||||
certificate is being created from another certificate (for example with
|
||||
the B<-signkey> or the B<-CA> options). Normally all extensions are
|
||||
retained.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-keyform PEM|DER>
|
||||
|
||||
specifies the format (DER or PEM) of the private key file used in the
|
||||
B<-signkey> option.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-days arg>
|
||||
|
||||
specifies the number of days to make a certificate valid for. The default
|
||||
is 30 days.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-x509toreq>
|
||||
|
||||
converts a certificate into a certificate request. The B<-signkey> option
|
||||
is used to pass the required private key.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-req>
|
||||
|
||||
by default a certificate is expected on input. With this option a
|
||||
certificate request is expected instead.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-set_serial n>
|
||||
|
||||
specifies the serial number to use. This option can be used with either
|
||||
the B<-signkey> or B<-CA> options. If used in conjunction with the B<-CA>
|
||||
option the serial number file (as specified by the B<-CAserial> or
|
||||
B<-CAcreateserial> options) is not used.
|
||||
|
||||
The serial number can be decimal or hex (if preceded by B<0x>). Negative
|
||||
serial numbers can also be specified but their use is not recommended.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-CA filename>
|
||||
|
||||
specifies the CA certificate to be used for signing. When this option is
|
||||
present B<x509> behaves like a "mini CA". The input file is signed by this
|
||||
CA using this option: that is its issuer name is set to the subject name
|
||||
of the CA and it is digitally signed using the CAs private key.
|
||||
|
||||
This option is normally combined with the B<-req> option. Without the
|
||||
B<-req> option the input is a certificate which must be self signed.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-CAkey filename>
|
||||
|
||||
sets the CA private key to sign a certificate with. If this option is
|
||||
not specified then it is assumed that the CA private key is present in
|
||||
the CA certificate file.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-CAserial filename>
|
||||
|
||||
sets the CA serial number file to use.
|
||||
|
||||
When the B<-CA> option is used to sign a certificate it uses a serial
|
||||
number specified in a file. This file consist of one line containing
|
||||
an even number of hex digits with the serial number to use. After each
|
||||
use the serial number is incremented and written out to the file again.
|
||||
|
||||
The default filename consists of the CA certificate file base name with
|
||||
".srl" appended. For example if the CA certificate file is called
|
||||
"mycacert.pem" it expects to find a serial number file called "mycacert.srl".
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-CAcreateserial>
|
||||
|
||||
with this option the CA serial number file is created if it does not exist:
|
||||
it will contain the serial number "02" and the certificate being signed will
|
||||
have the 1 as its serial number. Normally if the B<-CA> option is specified
|
||||
and the serial number file does not exist it is an error.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-extfile filename>
|
||||
|
||||
file containing certificate extensions to use. If not specified then
|
||||
no extensions are added to the certificate.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-extensions section>
|
||||
|
||||
the section to add certificate extensions from. If this option is not
|
||||
specified then the extensions should either be contained in the unnamed
|
||||
(default) section or the default section should contain a variable called
|
||||
"extensions" which contains the section to use. See the
|
||||
L<x509v3_config(5)|x509v3_config(5)> manual page for details of the
|
||||
extension section format.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<-force_pubkey key>
|
||||
|
||||
when a certificate is created set its public key to B<key> instead of the
|
||||
key in the certificate or certificate request. This option is useful for
|
||||
creating certificates where the algorithm can't normally sign requests, for
|
||||
example DH.
|
||||
|
||||
The format or B<key> can be specified using the B<-keyform> option.

=head2 NAME OPTIONS
|
||||
|
||||
The B<nameopt> command line switch determines how the subject and issuer
|
||||
names are displayed. If no B<nameopt> switch is present the default "oneline"
|
||||
format is used which is compatible with previous versions of OpenSSL.
|
||||
Each option is described in detail below, all options can be preceded by
|
||||
a B<-> to turn the option off. Only the first four will normally be used.
|
||||
|
||||
=over 4
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<compat>
|
||||
|
||||
use the old format. This is equivalent to specifying no name options at all.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<RFC2253>
|
||||
|
||||
displays names compatible with RFC2253 equivalent to B<esc_2253>, B<esc_ctrl>,
|
||||
B<esc_msb>, B<utf8>, B<dump_nostr>, B<dump_unknown>, B<dump_der>,
|
||||
B<sep_comma_plus>, B<dn_rev> and B<sname>.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<oneline>
|
||||
|
||||
a oneline format which is more readable than RFC2253. It is equivalent to
|
||||
specifying the B<esc_2253>, B<esc_ctrl>, B<esc_msb>, B<utf8>, B<dump_nostr>,
|
||||
B<dump_der>, B<use_quote>, B<sep_comma_plus_space>, B<space_eq> and B<sname>
|
||||
options.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<multiline>
|
||||
|
||||
a multiline format. It is equivalent B<esc_ctrl>, B<esc_msb>, B<sep_multiline>,
|
||||
B<space_eq>, B<lname> and B<align>.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<esc_2253>
|
||||
|
||||
escape the "special" characters required by RFC2253 in a field That is
|
||||
B<,+"E<lt>E<gt>;>. Additionally B<#> is escaped at the beginning of a string
|
||||
and a space character at the beginning or end of a string.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<esc_ctrl>
|
||||
|
||||
escape control characters. That is those with ASCII values less than
|
||||
0x20 (space) and the delete (0x7f) character. They are escaped using the
|
||||
RFC2253 \XX notation (where XX are two hex digits representing the
|
||||
character value).
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<esc_msb>
|
||||
|
||||
escape characters with the MSB set, that is with ASCII values larger than
|
||||
127.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<use_quote>
|
||||
|
||||
escapes some characters by surrounding the whole string with B<"> characters,
|
||||
without the option all escaping is done with the B<\> character.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<utf8>
|
||||
|
||||
convert all strings to UTF8 format first. This is required by RFC2253. If
|
||||
you are lucky enough to have a UTF8 compatible terminal then the use
|
||||
of this option (and B<not> setting B<esc_msb>) may result in the correct
|
||||
display of multibyte (international) characters. Is this option is not
|
||||
present then multibyte characters larger than 0xff will be represented
|
||||
using the format \UXXXX for 16 bits and \WXXXXXXXX for 32 bits.
|
||||
Also if this option is off any UTF8Strings will be converted to their
|
||||
character form first.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<ignore_type>
|
||||
|
||||
this option does not attempt to interpret multibyte characters in any
|
||||
way. That is their content octets are merely dumped as though one octet
|
||||
represents each character. This is useful for diagnostic purposes but
|
||||
will result in rather odd looking output.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<show_type>
|
||||
|
||||
show the type of the ASN1 character string. The type precedes the
|
||||
field contents. For example "BMPSTRING: Hello World".
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<dump_der>
|
||||
|
||||
when this option is set any fields that need to be hexdumped will
|
||||
be dumped using the DER encoding of the field. Otherwise just the
|
||||
content octets will be displayed. Both options use the RFC2253
|
||||
B<#XXXX...> format.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<dump_nostr>
|
||||
|
||||
dump non character string types (for example OCTET STRING) if this
|
||||
option is not set then non character string types will be displayed
|
||||
as though each content octet represents a single character.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<dump_all>
|
||||
|
||||
dump all fields. This option when used with B<dump_der> allows the
|
||||
DER encoding of the structure to be unambiguously determined.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<dump_unknown>
|
||||
|
||||
dump any field whose OID is not recognised by OpenSSL.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<sep_comma_plus>, B<sep_comma_plus_space>, B<sep_semi_plus_space>,
|
||||
B<sep_multiline>
|
||||
|
||||
these options determine the field separators. The first character is
|
||||
between RDNs and the second between multiple AVAs (multiple AVAs are
|
||||
very rare and their use is discouraged). The options ending in
|
||||
"space" additionally place a space after the separator to make it
|
||||
more readable. The B<sep_multiline> uses a linefeed character for
|
||||
the RDN separator and a spaced B<+> for the AVA separator. It also
|
||||
indents the fields by four characters. If no field separator is specified
|
||||
then B<sep_comma_plus_space> is used by default.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<dn_rev>
|
||||
|
||||
reverse the fields of the DN. This is required by RFC2253. As a side
|
||||
effect this also reverses the order of multiple AVAs but this is
|
||||
permissible.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<nofname>, B<sname>, B<lname>, B<oid>
|
||||
|
||||
these options alter how the field name is displayed. B<nofname> does
|
||||
not display the field at all. B<sname> uses the "short name" form
|
||||
(CN for commonName for example). B<lname> uses the long form.
|
||||
B<oid> represents the OID in numerical form and is useful for
|
||||
diagnostic purpose.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<align>
|
||||
|
||||
align field values for a more readable output. Only usable with
|
||||
B<sep_multiline>.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<space_eq>
|
||||
|
||||
places spaces round the B<=> character which follows the field
|
||||
name.

|
||||
=back
|
||||
|
||||
=head2 TEXT OPTIONS
|
||||
|
||||
As well as customising the name output format, it is also possible to
|
||||
customise the actual fields printed using the B<certopt> options when
|
||||
the B<text> option is present. The default behaviour is to print all fields.
|
||||
|

don't print out certificate trust information.
|

=head1 NOTES
|
||||
|
||||
The PEM format uses the header and footer lines:
|
||||
|
||||
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
|
||||
-----END CERTIFICATE-----
|
||||
|
||||
it will also handle files containing:
|
||||
|
||||
-----BEGIN X509 CERTIFICATE-----
|
||||
-----END X509 CERTIFICATE-----
|
||||
|
||||
Trusted certificates have the lines
|
||||
|
||||
-----BEGIN TRUSTED CERTIFICATE-----
|
||||
-----END TRUSTED CERTIFICATE-----
|
||||
|
||||
The conversion to UTF8 format used with the name options assumes that
|
||||
T61Strings use the ISO8859-1 character set. This is wrong but Netscape
|
||||
and MSIE do this as do many certificates. So although this is incorrect
|
||||
it is more likely to display the majority of certificates correctly.
|
||||
|
||||
The B<-fingerprint> option takes the digest of the DER encoded certificate.
|
||||
This is commonly called a "fingerprint". Because of the nature of message
|
||||
digests the fingerprint of a certificate is unique to that certificate and
|
||||
two certificates with the same fingerprint can be considered to be the same.
|
||||
|
||||
The Netscape fingerprint uses MD5 whereas MSIE uses SHA1.
|
||||
|
||||
The B<-email> option searches the subject name and the subject alternative
|
||||
name extension. Only unique email addresses will be printed out: it will
|
||||
not print the same address more than once.
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 CERTIFICATE EXTENSIONS
|
||||
|
||||
The B<-purpose> option checks the certificate extensions and determines
|
||||
what the certificate can be used for. The actual checks done are rather
|
||||
complex and include various hacks and workarounds to handle broken
|
||||
certificates and software.
|
||||
|
||||
The same code is used when verifying untrusted certificates in chains
|
||||
so this section is useful if a chain is rejected by the verify code.
|
||||
|
||||
The basicConstraints extension CA flag is used to determine whether the
|
||||
certificate can be used as a CA. If the CA flag is true then it is a CA,
|
||||
if the CA flag is false then it is not a CA. B<All> CAs should have the
|
||||
CA flag set to true.
|
||||
|
||||
If the basicConstraints extension is absent then the certificate is
|
||||
considered to be a "possible CA" other extensions are checked according
|
||||
to the intended use of the certificate. A warning is given in this case
|
||||
because the certificate should really not be regarded as a CA: however
|
||||
it is allowed to be a CA to work around some broken software.
|
||||
|
||||
If the certificate is a V1 certificate (and thus has no extensions) and
|
||||
it is self signed it is also assumed to be a CA but a warning is again
|
||||
given: this is to work around the problem of Verisign roots which are V1
|
||||
self signed certificates.
|
||||
|
||||
If the keyUsage extension is present then additional restraints are
|
||||
made on the uses of the certificate. A CA certificate B<must> have the
|
||||
keyCertSign bit set if the keyUsage extension is present.
|
||||
|
||||
The extended key usage extension places additional restrictions on the
|
||||
certificate uses. If this extension is present (whether critical or not)
|
||||
the key can only be used for the purposes specified.
|
||||
|
||||
A complete description of each test is given below. The comments about
|
||||
basicConstraints and keyUsage and V1 certificates above apply to B<all>
|
||||
CA certificates.

=item B<SSL Client>
|
||||
|
||||
The extended key usage extension must be absent or include the "web client
|
||||
authentication" OID. keyUsage must be absent or it must have the
|
||||
digitalSignature bit set. Netscape certificate type must be absent or it must
|
||||
have the SSL client bit set.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<SSL Client CA>
|
||||
|
||||
The extended key usage extension must be absent or include the "web client
|
||||

|
||||
the SSL CA bit set: this is used as a work around if the basicConstraints
|
||||
extension is absent.
|
||||

||||
=item B<SSL Server>

The extended key usage extension must be absent or include the "web server

must have the digitalSignature, the keyEncipherment set or both bits set.
|
||||
Netscape certificate type must be absent or have the SSL server bit set.
|

|
||||
=item B<SSL Server CA>
|
||||
|
||||
The extended key usage extension must be absent or include the "web server
|

|
||||
be absent or the SSL CA bit must be set: this is used as a work around if the
|
||||
basicConstraints extension is absent.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<Netscape SSL Server>
|

For Netscape SSL clients to connect to an SSL server it must have the

keyEncipherment bit set if the keyUsage extension is present. This isn't
|
||||
always valid because some cipher suites use the key for digital signing.
|
||||
Otherwise it is the same as a normal SSL server.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<Common S/MIME Client Tests>
|
||||
|
||||
The extended key usage extension must be absent or include the "email
|
||||
protection" OID. Netscape certificate type must be absent or should have the
|
||||
S/MIME bit set. If the S/MIME bit is not set in netscape certificate type
|
||||
then the SSL client bit is tolerated as an alternative but a warning is shown:
|
||||
this is because some Verisign certificates don't set the S/MIME bit.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<S/MIME Signing>
|
||||
|
||||
In addition to the common S/MIME client tests the digitalSignature bit must
|
||||
be set if the keyUsage extension is present.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<S/MIME Encryption>
|
||||
|
||||
In addition to the common S/MIME tests the keyEncipherment bit must be set
|
||||
if the keyUsage extension is present.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<S/MIME CA>
|
||||
|
||||
The extended key usage extension must be absent or include the "email
|
||||
protection" OID. Netscape certificate type must be absent or must have the
|
||||
S/MIME CA bit set: this is used as a work around if the basicConstraints
|
||||
extension is absent.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<CRL Signing>
|
||||
|
||||
The keyUsage extension must be absent or it must have the CRL signing bit
|
||||
set.
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<CRL Signing CA>
|
||||
|
||||
The normal CA tests apply. Except in this case the basicConstraints extension
|
||||
must be present.

=head1 BUGS
|
||||
|
||||
Extensions in certificates are not transferred to certificate requests and
|
||||
vice versa.
|
||||
|
||||
It is possible to produce invalid certificates or requests by specifying the
|
||||
wrong private key or using inconsistent options in some cases: these should
|
||||
be checked.
|
||||
|
||||
There should be options to explicitly set such things as start and end
|
||||
dates rather than an offset from the current time.
|
||||
|
||||
The code to implement the verify behaviour described in the B<TRUST SETTINGS>
|
||||
is currently being developed. It thus describes the intended behaviour rather
|
||||
than the current behaviour. It is hoped that it will represent reality in
|
||||
OpenSSL 0.9.5 and later.

=head1 HISTORY
|
||||
|
||||
Before OpenSSL 0.9.8, the default digest for RSA keys was MD5.
|
||||
|
||||
The hash algorithm used in the B<-subject_hash> and B<-issuer_hash> options
|
||||
before OpenSSL 1.0.0 was based on the deprecated MD5 algorithm and the encoding
|
||||
of the distinguished name. In OpenSSL 1.0.0 and later it is based on a
|
||||
canonical version of the DN using SHA1. This means that any directories using
|
||||
the old form must have their links rebuilt using B<c_rehash> or similar.

=head1 NAME
|
||||
|
||||
x509v3_config - X509 V3 certificate extension configuration format
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
||||
|
||||
Several of the OpenSSL utilities can add extensions to a certificate or
|
||||
certificate request based on the contents of a configuration file.
|
||||
|
||||
Typically the application will contain an option to point to an extension
|
||||
section. Each line of the extension section takes the form:
|
||||
|
||||
extension_name=[critical,] extension_options
|
||||
|
||||
If B<critical> is present then the extension will be critical.
|
||||
|
||||
The format of B<extension_options> depends on the value of B<extension_name>.
|
||||
|
||||
There are four main types of extension: I<string> extensions, I<multi-valued>
|
||||
extensions, I<raw> and I<arbitrary> extensions.
|
||||
|
||||
String extensions simply have a string which contains either the value itself
|
||||
or how it is obtained.
|
||||
|
||||
For example:
|
||||
|
||||
nsComment="This is a Comment"
|
||||
|
||||
Multi-valued extensions have a short form and a long form. The short form
|
||||
is a list of names and values:
|
||||
|
||||
basicConstraints=critical,CA:true,pathlen:1
|
||||
|
||||
The long form allows the values to be placed in a separate section:
|
||||
|
||||
basicConstraints=critical,@bs_section
|
||||
|
||||
[bs_section]
|
||||
|
||||
CA=true
|
||||
pathlen=1
|
||||
|
||||
Both forms are equivalent.
|
||||
|
||||
The syntax of raw extensions is governed by the extension code: it can
|
||||
for example contain data in multiple sections. The correct syntax to
|
||||
use is defined by the extension code itself: check out the certificate
|
||||
policies extension for an example.
|
||||
|
||||
If an extension type is unsupported then the I<arbitrary> extension syntax
|
||||
must be used, see the L<ARBITRARY EXTENSIONS|/"ARBITRARY EXTENSIONS"> section for more details.
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 STANDARD EXTENSIONS
|
||||
|
||||
The following sections describe each supported extension in detail.
|
||||
|
||||
=head2 Basic Constraints.
|
||||
|
||||
This is a multi valued extension which indicates whether a certificate is
|
||||
a CA certificate. The first (mandatory) name is B<CA> followed by B<TRUE> or
|
||||
B<FALSE>. If B<CA> is B<TRUE> then an optional B<pathlen> name followed by an
|
||||
non-negative value can be included.
|
||||
|
||||
For example:
|
||||
|
||||
basicConstraints=CA:TRUE
|
||||
|
||||
basicConstraints=CA:FALSE
|
||||
|
||||
basicConstraints=critical,CA:TRUE, pathlen:0
|
||||
|
||||
A CA certificate B<must> include the basicConstraints value with the CA field
|
||||
set to TRUE. An end user certificate must either set CA to FALSE or exclude the
|
||||
extension entirely. Some software may require the inclusion of basicConstraints
|
||||
with CA set to FALSE for end entity certificates.
|
||||
|
||||
The pathlen parameter indicates the maximum number of CAs that can appear
|
||||
below this one in a chain. So if you have a CA with a pathlen of zero it can
|
||||
only be used to sign end user certificates and not further CAs.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
=head2 Key Usage.
|
||||
|
||||
Key usage is a multi valued extension consisting of a list of names of the
|
||||
permitted key usages.
|
||||
|
||||
The supporte names are: digitalSignature, nonRepudiation, keyEncipherment,
|
||||
dataEncipherment, keyAgreement, keyCertSign, cRLSign, encipherOnly
|
||||
and decipherOnly.
|
||||
|
||||
Examples:
|
||||
|
||||
keyUsage=digitalSignature, nonRepudiation
|
||||
|
||||
keyUsage=critical, keyCertSign
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
=head2 Extended Key Usage.
|
||||
|
||||
This extensions consists of a list of usages indicating purposes for which
|
||||
the certificate public key can be used for,
|
||||
|
||||
These can either be object short names or the dotted numerical form of OIDs.
|
||||
While any OID can be used only certain values make sense. In particular the
|
||||
following PKIX, NS and MS values are meaningful:
|
||||
|
||||
Value Meaning
|
||||
----- -------
|
||||
serverAuth SSL/TLS Web Server Authentication.
|
||||
clientAuth SSL/TLS Web Client Authentication.
|
||||
codeSigning Code signing.
|
||||
emailProtection E-mail Protection (S/MIME).
|
||||
timeStamping Trusted Timestamping
|
||||
msCodeInd Microsoft Individual Code Signing (authenticode)
|
||||
msCodeCom Microsoft Commercial Code Signing (authenticode)
|
||||
msCTLSign Microsoft Trust List Signing
|
||||
msSGC Microsoft Server Gated Crypto
|
||||
msEFS Microsoft Encrypted File System
|
||||
nsSGC Netscape Server Gated Crypto
|
||||
|
||||
Examples:
|
||||
|
||||
extendedKeyUsage=critical,codeSigning,1.2.3.4
|
||||
extendedKeyUsage=nsSGC,msSGC
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
=head2 Subject Key Identifier.
|
||||
|
||||
This is really a string extension and can take two possible values. Either
|
||||
the word B<hash> which will automatically follow the guidelines in RFC3280
|
||||
or a hex string giving the extension value to include. The use of the hex
|
||||
string is strongly discouraged.
|
||||
|
||||
Example:
|
||||
|
||||
subjectKeyIdentifier=hash
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
=head2 Authority Key Identifier.
|
||||
|
||||
The authority key identifier extension permits two options. keyid and issuer:
|
||||
both can take the optional value "always".
|
||||
|
||||
If the keyid option is present an attempt is made to copy the subject key
|
||||
identifier from the parent certificate. If the value "always" is present
|
||||
then an error is returned if the option fails.
|
||||
|
||||
The issuer option copies the issuer and serial number from the issuer
|
||||
certificate. This will only be done if the keyid option fails or
|
||||
is not included unless the "always" flag will always include the value.
|
||||
|
||||
Example:
|
||||
|
||||
authorityKeyIdentifier=keyid,issuer
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
=head2 Subject Alternative Name.
|
||||
|
||||
The subject alternative name extension allows various literal values to be
|
||||
included in the configuration file. These include B<email> (an email address)
|
||||
B<URI> a uniform resource indicator, B<DNS> (a DNS domain name), B<RID> (a
|
||||
registered ID: OBJECT IDENTIFIER), B<IP> (an IP address), B<dirName>
|
||||
(a distinguished name) and otherName.
|
||||
|
||||
The email option include a special 'copy' value. This will automatically
|
||||
include and email addresses contained in the certificate subject name in
|
||||
the extension.
|
||||
|
||||
The IP address used in the B<IP> options can be in either IPv4 or IPv6 format.
|
||||
|
||||
The value of B<dirName> should point to a section containing the distinguished
|
||||
name to use as a set of name value pairs. Multi values AVAs can be formed by
|
||||
prefacing the name with a B<+> character.
|
||||
|
||||
otherName can include arbitrary data associated with an OID: the value
|
||||
should be the OID followed by a semicolon and the content in standard
|
||||
L<ASN1_generate_nconf(3)|ASN1_generate_nconf(3)> format.
|
||||
|
||||
Examples:
|
||||
|
||||
subjectAltName=email:copy,email:my@other.address,URI:http://my.url.here/
|
||||
subjectAltName=IP:192.168.7.1
|
||||
subjectAltName=IP:13::17
|
||||
subjectAltName=email:my@other.address,RID:1.2.3.4
|
||||
subjectAltName=otherName:1.2.3.4;UTF8:some other identifier
|
||||
|
||||
subjectAltName=dirName:dir_sect
|
||||
|
||||
[dir_sect]
|
||||
C=UK
|
||||
O=My Organization
|
||||
OU=My Unit
|
||||
CN=My Name
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
=head2 Issuer Alternative Name.
|
||||
|
||||
The issuer alternative name option supports all the literal options of
|
||||
subject alternative name. It does B<not> support the email:copy option because
|
||||
that would not make sense. It does support an additional issuer:copy option
|
||||
that will copy all the subject alternative name values from the issuer
|
||||
certificate (if possible).
|
||||
|
||||
Example:
|
||||
|
||||
issuserAltName = issuer:copy
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
=head2 Authority Info Access.
|
||||
|
||||
The authority information access extension gives details about how to access
|
||||
certain information relating to the CA. Its syntax is accessOID;location
|
||||
where I<location> has the same syntax as subject alternative name (except
|
||||
that email:copy is not supported). accessOID can be any valid OID but only
|
||||
certain values are meaningful, for example OCSP and caIssuers.
|
||||
|
||||
Example:
|
||||
|
||||
authorityInfoAccess = OCSP;URI:http://ocsp.my.host/
|
||||
authorityInfoAccess = caIssuers;URI:http://my.ca/ca.html
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
=head2 CRL distribution points.
|
||||
|
||||
This is a multi-valued extension whose options can be either in name:value pair
|
||||
using the same form as subject alternative name or a single value representing
|
||||
a section name containing all the distribution point fields.
|
||||
|
||||
For a name:value pair a new DistributionPoint with the fullName field set to
|
||||
the given value both the cRLissuer and reasons fields are omitted in this case.
|
||||
|
||||
In the single option case the section indicated contains values for each
|
||||
field. In this section:
|
||||
|
||||
If the name is "fullname" the value field should contain the full name
|
||||
of the distribution point in the same format as subject alternative name.
|
||||
|
||||
If the name is "relativename" then the value field should contain a section
|
||||
name whose contents represent a DN fragment to be placed in this field.
|
||||
|
||||
The name "CRLIssuer" if present should contain a value for this field in
|
||||
subject alternative name format.
|
||||
|
||||
If the name is "reasons" the value field should consist of a comma
|
||||
separated field containing the reasons. Valid reasons are: "keyCompromise",
|
||||
"CACompromise", "affiliationChanged", "superseded", "cessationOfOperation",
|
||||
"certificateHold", "privilegeWithdrawn" and "AACompromise".
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Simple examples:
|
||||
|
||||
crlDistributionPoints=URI:http://myhost.com/myca.crl
|
||||
crlDistributionPoints=URI:http://my.com/my.crl,URI:http://oth.com/my.crl
|
||||
|
||||
Full distribution point example:
|
||||
|
||||
crlDistributionPoints=crldp1_section
|
||||
|
||||
[crldp1_section]
|
||||
|
||||
fullname=URI:http://myhost.com/myca.crl
|
||||
CRLissuer=dirName:issuer_sect
|
||||
reasons=keyCompromise, CACompromise
|
||||
|
||||
[issuer_sect]
|
||||
C=UK
|
||||
O=Organisation
|
||||
CN=Some Name
|
||||
|
||||
=head2 Issuing Distribution Point
|
||||
|
||||
This extension should only appear in CRLs. It is a multi valued extension
|
||||
whose syntax is similar to the "section" pointed to by the CRL distribution
|
||||
points extension with a few differences.
|
||||
|
||||
The names "reasons" and "CRLissuer" are not recognized.
|
||||
|
||||
The name "onlysomereasons" is accepted which sets this field. The value is
|
||||
in the same format as the CRL distribution point "reasons" field.
|
||||
|
||||
The names "onlyuser", "onlyCA", "onlyAA" and "indirectCRL" are also accepted
|
||||
the values should be a boolean value (TRUE or FALSE) to indicate the value of
|
||||
the corresponding field.
|
||||
|
||||
Example:
|
||||
|
||||
issuingDistributionPoint=critical, @idp_section
|
||||
|
||||
[idp_section]
|
||||
|
||||
fullname=URI:http://myhost.com/myca.crl
|
||||
indirectCRL=TRUE
|
||||
onlysomereasons=keyCompromise, CACompromise
|
||||
|
||||
[issuer_sect]
|
||||
C=UK
|
||||
O=Organisation
|
||||
CN=Some Name
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
=head2 Certificate Policies.
|
||||
|
||||
This is a I<raw> extension. All the fields of this extension can be set by
|
||||
using the appropriate syntax.
|
||||
|
||||
If you follow the PKIX recommendations and just using one OID then you just
|
||||
include the value of that OID. Multiple OIDs can be set separated by commas,
|
||||
for example:
|
||||
|
||||
certificatePolicies= 1.2.4.5, 1.1.3.4
|
||||
|
||||
If you wish to include qualifiers then the policy OID and qualifiers need to
|
||||
be specified in a separate section: this is done by using the @section syntax
|
||||
instead of a literal OID value.
|
||||
|
||||
The section referred to must include the policy OID using the name
|
||||
policyIdentifier, cPSuri qualifiers can be included using the syntax:
|
||||
|
||||
CPS.nnn=value
|
||||
|
||||
userNotice qualifiers can be set using the syntax:
|
||||
|
||||
userNotice.nnn=@notice
|
||||
|
||||
The value of the userNotice qualifier is specified in the relevant section.
|
||||
This section can include explicitText, organization and noticeNumbers
|
||||
options. explicitText and organization are text strings, noticeNumbers is a
|
||||
comma separated list of numbers. The organization and noticeNumbers options
|
||||
(if included) must BOTH be present. If you use the userNotice option with IE5
|
||||
then you need the 'ia5org' option at the top level to modify the encoding:
|
||||
otherwise it will not be interpreted properly.
|
||||
|
||||
Example:
|
||||
|
||||
certificatePolicies=ia5org,1.2.3.4,1.5.6.7.8,@polsect
|
||||
|
||||
[polsect]
|
||||
|
||||
policyIdentifier = 1.3.5.8
|
||||
CPS.1="http://my.host.name/"
|
||||
CPS.2="http://my.your.name/"
|
||||
userNotice.1=@notice
|
||||
|
||||
[notice]
|
||||
|
||||
explicitText="Explicit Text Here"
|
||||
organization="Organisation Name"
|
||||
noticeNumbers=1,2,3,4
|
||||
|
||||
The B<ia5org> option changes the type of the I<organization> field. In RFC2459
|
||||
it can only be of type DisplayText. In RFC3280 IA5Strring is also permissible.
|
||||
Some software (for example some versions of MSIE) may require ia5org.
|
||||
|
||||
=head2 Policy Constraints
|
||||
|
||||
This is a multi-valued extension which consisting of the names
|
||||
B<requireExplicitPolicy> or B<inhibitPolicyMapping> and a non negative intger
|
||||
value. At least one component must be present.
|
||||
|
||||
Example:
|
||||
|
||||
policyConstraints = requireExplicitPolicy:3
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
=head2 Inhibit Any Policy
|
||||
|
||||
This is a string extension whose value must be a non negative integer.
|
||||
|
||||
Example:
|
||||
|
||||
inhibitAnyPolicy = 2
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
=head2 Name Constraints
|
||||
|
||||
The name constraints extension is a multi-valued extension. The name should
|
||||
begin with the word B<permitted> or B<excluded> followed by a B<;>. The rest of
|
||||
the name and the value follows the syntax of subjectAltName except email:copy
|
||||
is not supported and the B<IP> form should consist of an IP addresses and
|
||||
subnet mask separated by a B</>.
|
||||
|
||||
Examples:
|
||||
|
||||
nameConstraints=permitted;IP:192.168.0.0/255.255.0.0
|
||||
|
||||
nameConstraints=permitted;email:.somedomain.com
|
||||
|
||||
nameConstraints=excluded;email:.com
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
=head2 OCSP No Check
|
||||
|
||||
The OCSP No Check extension is a string extension but its value is ignored.
|
||||
|
||||
Example:
|
||||
|
||||
noCheck = ignored
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 DEPRECATED EXTENSIONS
|
||||
|
||||
The following extensions are non standard, Netscape specific and largely
|
||||
obsolete. Their use in new applications is discouraged.
|
||||
|
||||
=head2 Netscape String extensions.
|
||||
|
||||
Netscape Comment (B<nsComment>) is a string extension containing a comment
|
||||
which will be displayed when the certificate is viewed in some browsers.
|
||||
|
||||
Example:
|
||||
|
||||
nsComment = "Some Random Comment"
|
||||
|
||||
Other supported extensions in this category are: B<nsBaseUrl>,
|
||||
B<nsRevocationUrl>, B<nsCaRevocationUrl>, B<nsRenewalUrl>, B<nsCaPolicyUrl>
|
||||
and B<nsSslServerName>.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
=head2 Netscape Certificate Type
|
||||
|
||||
This is a multi-valued extensions which consists of a list of flags to be
|
||||
included. It was used to indicate the purposes for which a certificate could
|
||||
be used. The basicConstraints, keyUsage and extended key usage extensions are
|
||||
now used instead.
|
||||
|
||||
Acceptable values for nsCertType are: B<client>, B<server>, B<email>,
|
||||
B<objsign>, B<reserved>, B<sslCA>, B<emailCA>, B<objCA>.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 ARBITRARY EXTENSIONS
|
||||
|
||||
If an extension is not supported by the OpenSSL code then it must be encoded
|
||||
using the arbitrary extension format. It is also possible to use the arbitrary
|
||||
format for supported extensions. Extreme care should be taken to ensure that
|
||||
the data is formatted correctly for the given extension type.
|
||||
|
||||
There are two ways to encode arbitrary extensions.
|
||||
|
||||
The first way is to use the word ASN1 followed by the extension content
|
||||
using the same syntax as L<ASN1_generate_nconf(3)|ASN1_generate_nconf(3)>.
|
||||
For example:
|
||||
|
||||
1.2.3.4=critical,ASN1:UTF8String:Some random data
|
||||
|
||||
1.2.3.4=ASN1:SEQUENCE:seq_sect
|
||||
|
||||
[seq_sect]
|
||||
|
||||
field1 = UTF8:field1
|
||||
field2 = UTF8:field2
|
||||
|
||||
It is also possible to use the word DER to include the raw encoded data in any
|
||||
extension.
|
||||
|
||||
1.2.3.4=critical,DER:01:02:03:04
|
||||
1.2.3.4=DER:01020304
|
||||
|
||||
The value following DER is a hex dump of the DER encoding of the extension
|
||||
Any extension can be placed in this form to override the default behaviour.
|
||||
For example:
|
||||
|
||||
basicConstraints=critical,DER:00:01:02:03
|
||||

=head1 WARNING
|
||||
|
||||
There is no guarantee that a specific implementation will process a given
|
||||
extension. It may therefore be sometimes possible to use certificates for
|
||||
purposes prohibited by their extensions because a specific application does
|
||||
not recognize or honour the values of the relevant extensions.
|
||||
|
||||
The DER and ASN1 options should be used with caution. It is possible to create
|
||||
totally invalid extensions if they are not used carefully.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 NOTES
|
||||
|
||||
If an extension is multi-value and a field value must contain a comma the long
|
||||
form must be used otherwise the comma would be misinterpreted as a field
|
||||
separator. For example:
|
||||
|
||||
subjectAltName=URI:ldap://somehost.com/CN=foo,OU=bar
|
||||
|
||||
will produce an error but the equivalent form:
|
||||
|
||||
subjectAltName=@subject_alt_section
|
||||
|
||||
[subject_alt_section]
|
||||
subjectAltName=URI:ldap://somehost.com/CN=foo,OU=bar
|
||||
|
||||
is valid.
|
||||
|
||||
Due to the behaviour of the OpenSSL B<conf> library the same field name
|
||||
can only occur once in a section. This means that:
|
||||
|
||||
subjectAltName=@alt_section
|
||||
|
||||
[alt_section]
|
||||
|
||||
email=steve@here
|
||||
email=steve@there
|
||||
|
||||
will only recognize the last value. This can be worked around by using the form:
|
||||
|
||||
[alt_section]
|
||||
|
||||
email.1=steve@here
|
||||
email.2=steve@there
|
||||

||||
=head1 HISTORY
|
||||
|
||||
The X509v3 extension code was first added to OpenSSL 0.9.2.
|
||||
|
||||
Policy mappings, inhibit any policy and name constraints support was added in
|
||||
OpenSSL 0.9.8
|
||||
|
||||
The B<directoryName> and B<otherName> option as well as the B<ASN1> option
|
||||
for arbitrary extensions was added in OpenSSL 0.9.8
