The information is passed to SSL objects B<ssl> -created from B<ctx> with L<SSL_new(3)|SSL_new(3)> by copying, so that -changes applied to B<ctx> do not propagate to already existing SSL objects. - -The SSL_* class of functions only loads certificates and keys into a -specific SSL object. The specific information is kept, when -L<SSL_clear(3)|SSL_clear(3)> is called for this SSL object. - -SSL_CTX_use_certificate() loads the certificate B<x> into B<ctx>, -SSL_use_certificate() loads B<x> into B<ssl>. The rest of the -certificates needed to form the complete certificate chain can be -specified using the -L<SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert(3)|SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert(3)> -function. - -SSL_CTX_use_certificate_ASN1() loads the ASN1 encoded certificate from -the memory location B<d> (with length B<len>) into B<ctx>, -SSL_use_certificate_ASN1() loads the ASN1 encoded certificate into B<ssl>. - -SSL_CTX_use_certificate_file() loads the first certificate stored in B<file> -into B<ctx>. The formatting B<type> of the certificate must be specified -from the known types SSL_FILETYPE_PEM, SSL_FILETYPE_ASN1. -SSL_use_certificate_file() loads the certificate from B<file> into B<ssl>. -See the NOTES section on why SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file() -should be preferred. - -SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file() loads a certificate chain from -B<file> into B<ctx>. The certificates must be in PEM format and must -be sorted starting with the subject's certificate (actual client or server -certificate), followed by intermediate CA certificates if applicable, and -ending at the highest level (root) CA. -There is no corresponding function working on a single SSL object. - -SSL_CTX_use_PrivateKey() adds B<pkey> as private key to B<ctx>. -SSL_CTX_use_RSAPrivateKey() adds the private key B<rsa> of type RSA -to B<ctx>. SSL_use_PrivateKey() adds B<pkey> as private key to B<ssl>; -SSL_use_RSAPrivateKey() adds B<rsa> as private key of type RSA to B<ssl>. -If a certificate has already been set and the private does not belong -to the certificate an error is returned. To change a certificate, private -key pair the new certificate needs to be set with SSL_use_certificate() -or SSL_CTX_use_certificate() before setting the private key with -SSL_CTX_use_PrivateKey() or SSL_use_PrivateKey(). - - -SSL_CTX_use_PrivateKey_ASN1() adds the private key of type B<pk> -stored at memory location B<d> (length B<len>) to B<ctx>. -SSL_CTX_use_RSAPrivateKey_ASN1() adds the private key of type RSA -stored at memory location B<d> (length B<len>) to B<ctx>. -SSL_use_PrivateKey_ASN1() and SSL_use_RSAPrivateKey_ASN1() add the private -key to B<ssl>. - -SSL_CTX_use_PrivateKey_file() adds the first private key found in -B<file> to B<ctx>. The formatting B<type> of the certificate must be specified -from the known types SSL_FILETYPE_PEM, SSL_FILETYPE_ASN1. -SSL_CTX_use_RSAPrivateKey_file() adds the first private RSA key found in -B<file> to B<ctx>. SSL_use_PrivateKey_file() adds the first private key found -in B<file> to B<ssl>; SSL_use_RSAPrivateKey_file() adds the first private -RSA key found to B<ssl>. - -SSL_CTX_check_private_key() checks the consistency of a private key with -the corresponding certificate loaded into B<ctx>. If more than one -key/certificate pair (RSA/DSA) is installed, the last item installed will -be checked. If e.g. the last item was a RSA certificate or key, the RSA -key/certificate pair will be checked. SSL_check_private_key() performs -the same check for B<ssl>. If no key/certificate was explicitly added for -this B<ssl>, the last item added into B<ctx> will be checked. - -=head1 NOTES - -The internal certificate store of OpenSSL can hold two private key/certificate -pairs at a time: one key/certificate of type RSA and one key/certificate -of type DSA. The certificate used depends on the cipher select, see -also L<SSL_CTX_set_cipher_list(3)|SSL_CTX_set_cipher_list(3)>. - -When reading certificates and private keys from file, files of type -SSL_FILETYPE_ASN1 (also known as B<DER>, binary encoding) can only contain -one certificate or private key, consequently -SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file() is only applicable to PEM formatting. -Files of type SSL_FILETYPE_PEM can contain more than one item. - -SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file() adds the first certificate found -in the file to the certificate store. The other certificates are added -to the store of chain certificates using -L<SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert(3)|SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert(3)>. -There exists only one extra chain store, so that the same chain is appended -to both types of certificates, RSA and DSA! If it is not intended to use -both type of certificate at the same time, it is recommended to use the -SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file() instead of the -SSL_CTX_use_certificate_file() function in order to allow the use of -complete certificate chains even when no trusted CA storage is used or -when the CA issuing the certificate shall not be added to the trusted -CA storage. - -If additional certificates are needed to complete the chain during the -TLS negotiation, CA certificates are additionally looked up in the -locations of trusted CA certificates, see -L<SSL_CTX_load_verify_locations(3)|SSL_CTX_load_verify_locations(3)>. - -The private keys loaded from file can be encrypted. In order to successfully -load encrypted keys, a function returning the passphrase must have been -supplied, see -L<SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb(3)|SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb(3)>. -(Certificate files might be encrypted as well from the technical point -of view, it however does not make sense as the data in the certificate -is considered public anyway.) - -=head1 RETURN VALUES - -On success, the functions return 1. -Otherwise check out the error stack to find out the reason. - -=head1 SEE ALSO - -L<ssl(3)|ssl(3)>, L<SSL_new(3)|SSL_new(3)>, L<SSL_clear(3)|SSL_clear(3)>, -L<SSL_CTX_load_verify_locations(3)|SSL_CTX_load_verify_locations(3)>, -L<SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb(3)|SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb(3)>, -L<SSL_CTX_set_cipher_list(3)|SSL_CTX_set_cipher_list(3)>, -L<SSL_CTX_set_client_cert_cb(3)|SSL_CTX_set_client_cert_cb(3)>, -L<SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert(3)|SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert(3)> - -=head1 HISTORY - -Support for DER encoded private keys (SSL_FILETYPE_ASN1) in -SSL_CTX_use_PrivateKey_file() and SSL_use_PrivateKey_file() was added -in 0.9.8 . - -=cut |
