  • About certificate

    证书spec, X509, 类似规定了一个目录结构。其中重要内容包括

    • issuer: who isued this certificate
    • subject: the ID of this certificate 
    • public key: 
    • validate period
    • sign: the sha of this certificate, encritpted with the issuer's private key. (This is the mechanism how to verify the certificate)
    • in extention, other there is a link to get certificate of issuer. 

    DN (distingushed name)

    • include C(country), ST(state), O(organization), OU(部门,可以多个), CN(common name)
    • both Issuer and Subject are DN. 

    Certificate formate

    • PEM, base64 encoded DER file, easy to be edited
    • DER, CER, CRT.  same, DER, Distinguished Encoding Rules. openssl -inform der -in a.cert -text -noout
    • P12. Windows specific, contails both public key and private key. So the file itself should be encriypted.
    • p7b, p7c. CRL (certificate revocation list) 常用于证书吊销文件,不包括key
    • JKS. Java Key storage(Java 专利)利用 keytool 管理

    应用

    1. Safari and macOS, managed by "keychain access". The each keychain is stored in separated directory. login means the current login user.
    2. Java, keytool 管理,has different location from OS(e.g. /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_121.jdk/Contents/Home/jre/lib/security/cacerts), so even safari downloaded a Root CA for a website, Java may still not work.  
      1. keytool -list -keystore cacerts
    3. Python: 
      1. public certs stored in certifi module ([py_home]/site-packages/certifi/cacert.pem), then all python modules relying on certifi (e.g. requests) could load certs for ssl verification 
      2. However, pip is a standalone package that contains its own requests/certifi module and public cert storage.  One solution is to wrap original certifi.where() and pip._vendor.requests.certs.where() method to force return path ‘/etc/pki/tls/cert.pem’. Make sure all certs are store in it.
    4. CN name: https://security.stackexchange.com/questions/40026/openssl-x509-whats-the-significance-of-cn-common-name
    5. curl, use curl -v to see with cacert it is using, maybe /etc/ssl/cacert.pem, makeby $HOME/anaconda/ssl/cacert.pem. 
      1. 手动指定使用某个证书来验证网站 curl --cacert mycertificate.cer -v https://www.google.com

    • Intermediate certifcate
      • client certificate. In SSL, webserver might need to veifiy the certificate of the client. Usually it doesn't.
