.SH "DESCRIPTION"
|
|
The \fBpkcs8\fR 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.
|
|
.SH "COMMAND OPTIONS"
|
|
.Ip "\fB\-topk8\fR" 4
|
|
Normally a \s-1PKCS\s0#8 private key is expected on input and a traditional format
|
|
private key will be written. With the \fB\-topk8\fR option the situation is
|
|
reversed: it reads a traditional format private key and writes a \s-1PKCS\s0#8
|
|
format key.
|
|
.Ip "\fB\-inform \s-1DER\s0|\s-1PEM\s0\fR" 4
|
|
This specifies the input format. If a \s-1PKCS\s0#8 format key is expected on input
|
|
then either a \fB\s-1DER\s0\fR or \fB\s-1PEM\s0\fR encoded version of a \s-1PKCS\s0#8 key will be
|
|
expected. Otherwise the \fB\s-1DER\s0\fR or \fB\s-1PEM\s0\fR format of the traditional format
|
|
private key is used.
|
|
.Ip "\fB\-outform \s-1DER\s0|\s-1PEM\s0\fR" 4
|
|
This specifies the output format, the options have the same meaning as the
|
|
\fB\-inform\fR option.
|
|
.Ip "\fB\-in filename\fR" 4
|
|
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.
|
|
.Ip "\fB\-passin arg\fR" 4
|
|
the input file password source. For more information about the format of \fBarg\fR
|
|
see the \fB\s-1PASS\s0 \s-1PHRASE\s0 \s-1ARGUMENTS\s0\fR section in the \fIopenssl(1)|openssl(1)\fR manpage.
|
|
.Ip "\fB\-out filename\fR" 4
|
|
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 \fBnot\fR be the same as the input
|
|
filename.
|
|
.Ip "\fB\-passout arg\fR" 4
|
|
the output file password source. For more information about the format of \fBarg\fR
|
|
see the \fB\s-1PASS\s0 \s-1PHRASE\s0 \s-1ARGUMENTS\s0\fR section in the \fIopenssl(1)|openssl(1)\fR manpage.
|
|
.Ip "\fB\-nocrypt\fR" 4
|
|
\s-1PKCS\s0#8 keys generated or input are normally \s-1PKCS\s0#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.
|
|
.Ip "\fB\-nooct\fR" 4
|
|
This option generates \s-1RSA\s0 private keys in a broken format that some software
|
|
uses. Specifically the private key should be enclosed in a \s-1OCTET\s0 \s-1STRING\s0
|
|
but some software just includes the structure itself without the
|
|
surrounding \s-1OCTET\s0 \s-1STRING\s0.
|
|
.Ip "\fB\-embed\fR" 4
|
|
This option generates \s-1DSA\s0 keys in a broken format. The \s-1DSA\s0 parameters are
|
|
embedded inside the PrivateKey structure. In this form the \s-1OCTET\s0 \s-1STRING\s0
|
|
contains an \s-1ASN1\s0 \s-1SEQUENCE\s0 consisting of two structures: a \s-1SEQUENCE\s0 containing
|
|
the parameters and an \s-1ASN1\s0 \s-1INTEGER\s0 containing the private key.
|
|
.Ip "\fB\-nsdb\fR" 4
|
|
This option generates \s-1DSA\s0 keys in a broken format compatible with Netscape
|
|
private key databases. The PrivateKey contains a \s-1SEQUENCE\s0 consisting of
|
|
the public and private keys respectively.
|
|
.Ip "\fB\-v2 alg\fR" 4
|
|
This option enables the use of \s-1PKCS\s0#5 v2.0 algorithms. Normally \s-1PKCS\s0#8
|
|
private keys are encrypted with the password based encryption algorithm
|
|
called \fBpbeWithMD5AndDES\-\s-1CBC\s0\fR this uses 56 bit \s-1DES\s0 encryption but it
|
|
was the strongest encryption algorithm supported in \s-1PKCS\s0#5 v1.5. Using
|
|
the \fB\-v2\fR option \s-1PKCS\s0#5 v2.0 algorithms are used which can use any
|
|
encryption algorithm such as 168 bit triple \s-1DES\s0 or 128 bit \s-1RC2\s0 however
|
|
not many implementations support \s-1PKCS\s0#5 v2.0 yet. If you are just using
|
|
private keys with OpenSSL then this doesn't matter.
|
|
.Sp
|
|
The \fBalg\fR argument is the encryption algorithm to use, valid values include
|
|
\fBdes\fR, \fBdes3\fR and \fBrc2\fR. It is recommended that \fBdes3\fR is used.
|
|
.Ip "\fB\-v1 alg\fR" 4
|
|
This option specifies a \s-1PKCS\s0#5 v1.5 or \s-1PKCS\s0#12 algorithm to use. A complete
|
|
list of possible algorithms is included below.
|
|
.SH "NOTES"
|
|
The encrypted form of a PEM encode PKCS#8 files uses the following
|
|
headers and footers:
|
|
.PP
|
|
.Vb 2
|
|
\& -----BEGIN ENCRYPTED PRIVATE KEY-----
|
|
\& -----END ENCRYPTED PRIVATE KEY-----
|
|
.Ve
|
|
The unencrypted form uses:
|
|
.PP
|
|
.Vb 2
|
|
\& -----BEGIN PRIVATE KEY-----
|
|
\& -----END PRIVATE KEY-----
|
|
.Ve
|
|
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.
|
|
.PP
|
|
The default encryption is only 56 bits because this is the encryption
|
|
that most current implementations of PKCS#8 will support.
|
|
.PP
|
|
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.
|
|
.PP
|
|
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.
|
|
.SH "PKCS#5 v1.5 and PKCS#12 algorithms."
|
|
Various algorithms can be used with the \fB\-v1\fR command line option,
|
|
including PKCS#5 v1.5 and PKCS#12. These are described in more detail
|
|
below.
|
|
.Ip "\fB\s-1PBE\s0\-\s-1MD2-DES\s0 \s-1PBE\s0\-\s-1MD5-DES\s0\fR" 4
|
|
These algorithms were included in the original \s-1PKCS\s0#5 v1.5 specification.
|
|
They only offer 56 bits of protection since they both use \s-1DES\s0.
|
|
.Ip "\fB\s-1PBE\s0\-\s-1SHA1-RC2-64\s0 \s-1PBE\s0\-\s-1MD2-RC2-64\s0 \s-1PBE\s0\-\s-1MD5-RC2-64\s0 \s-1PBE\s0\-\s-1SHA1-DES\s0\fR" 4
|
|
These algorithms are not mentioned in the original \s-1PKCS\s0#5 v1.5 specification
|
|
but they use the same key derivation algorithm and are supported by some
|
|
software. They are mentioned in \s-1PKCS\s0#5 v2.0. They use either 64 bit \s-1RC2\s0 or
|
|
56 bit \s-1DES\s0.
|
|
.Ip "\fB\s-1PBE\s0\-\s-1SHA1-RC4-128\s0 \s-1PBE\s0\-\s-1SHA1-RC4-40\s0 \s-1PBE\s0\-\s-1SHA1-3DES\s0 \s-1PBE\s0\-\s-1SHA1-2DES\s0 \s-1PBE\s0\-\s-1SHA1-RC2-128\s0 \s-1PBE\s0\-\s-1SHA1-RC2-40\s0\fR" 4
|
|
These algorithms use the \s-1PKCS\s0#12 password based encryption algorithm and
|
|
allow strong encryption algorithms like triple \s-1DES\s0 or 128 bit \s-1RC2\s0 to be used.

.SH "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.
|
|
.PP
|
|
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.
|
|
.SH "BUGS"
|
|
There should be an option that prints out the encryption algorithm
|
|
in use and other details such as the iteration count.
|
|
.PP
|
|
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.
