Hello,
I'm fighting with Certificate Authority functionality with python
I stuck on following problem: How to sign CSR using CA key and write
resulted certificate.
You can do it using following openssl cmd:
openssl ca -cert CA/cert.pem -keyfile CA/private/cakey.pem -policy
policy_anything -out user_cert.pem -infiles userreq.pem
My try was:
import OpenSSL.crypto as pki
#load CA key:
ca_key=pki.load _privatekey(pki .FILETYPE_PEM,o pen('CA/private/
cakey.pem').rea d(),'haselko')
#load user's csr:
csr=pki.load_ce rtificate_reque st(pki.FILETYPE _PEM,open('user req.pem').read( ))
# sign csr
csr.sign(ca_key ,'sha1')
I don't get any erorrs however I dont' see any way to write or get
result from such operation
csr exports following methods:
csr.add_extensi ons csr.get_pubkey csr.get_subject
csr.set_pubkey csr.sign csr.verify
I want to create pure python implementation without use of openssl
wrapped with python code.

You need to use crypto.dump_cer tificate() to dump and then
write the certificate back to disk.
BTW: There's a good example in the pyOpenSSL examples dir
for these things: http://svn.dave.cridland.net/svn/pro...les/certgen.py http://svn.dave.cridland.net/svn/pro...imple_certs.py

Good luck with that :-)

There was a CA written in Python quite a while back, http://pyca.de .
I don't know if it's maintained these days.

That was the usual approach with invoking the openssl command-line tool
from Python. Today I'd do *everything* differently. Well, it was the
result of learning Python, PKI, LDAP and web programming all at once
back then.

No, it's not. Being the author I know this for sure. ;-)

I have been considering the various SSL/crypto libraries for Python,
and they all have their plus and minus points. The main sticking point
has been to have BOTH X509 file support and access to some crypto
operations for signing/hashing.
The only one which does both (please correct me if this is a
misconception on my part) is http://sourceforge.net/projects/pow/ but I
can find very few references to it, or projects that use it via...

The major complaint I have about Python is that the packages
which connect it to other software components all seem to have
serious problems. As long as you don't need to talk to anything
outside the Python world, you're fine. But once you do, things
go downhill. MySQLdb has version and platform compatibility
problems. So does M2Crypto. The built-in SSL support is weak.
Even basic sockets don't quite work right; the socket module...

Hello,
I'm currently trying the OpenSSL Library, but I got some problems. I
want to create a server and client application that communicate
through the OpenSSL API, but this code doesn't work.
I tried to understand the error messages but for me they aren't
useful. And now I'm here and hope that somebody has experience and can
tell me the error.
This is the Code for the server:

Explanation:
I wrote a simple openssl server using code from basic examples. I tried it out with several browsers like firefox, opera, ie and safari. With firefox i get the certificate and then the html site. But with the other browsers I got either no html page at all or got the site just after loading the browser twice. I dont know if the problem are the certificates or the c++ code.

Hi,
I've been wrestling with this for a few days and I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. I'm writing a script that will eventually sign several certificate signing requests (CSRs) using openssl. But for now, I can't get it to sign a single one.
Here are the beginning and the signing portions of the script as they are now. Instead of using an argument to input the passphrase, I'm defining it in a variable and have it printed out to prove...

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
