It can be used +to print out requests and responses, create requests and send queries +to an \s-1OCSP\s0 responder and behave like a mini \s-1OCSP\s0 server itself. +.SH "OCSP CLIENT OPTIONS" +.IX Header "OCSP CLIENT OPTIONS" +.IP "\fB\-out filename\fR" 4 +.IX Item "-out filename" +specify output filename, default is standard output. +.IP "\fB\-issuer filename\fR" 4 +.IX Item "-issuer filename" +This specifies the current issuer certificate. This option can be used +multiple times. The certificate specified in \fBfilename\fR must be in +\&\s-1PEM\s0 format. +.IP "\fB\-cert filename\fR" 4 +.IX Item "-cert filename" +Add the certificate \fBfilename\fR to the request. The issuer certificate +is taken from the previous \fBissuer\fR option, or an error occurs if no +issuer certificate is specified. +.IP "\fB\-serial num\fR" 4 +.IX Item "-serial num" +Same as the \fBcert\fR option except the certificate with serial number +\&\fBnum\fR is added to the request.

Negative integers can also +be specified by preceding the value by a \fB\-\fR sign. +.IP "\fB\-signer filename\fR, \fB\-signkey filename\fR" 4 +.IX Item "-signer filename, -signkey filename" +Sign the \s-1OCSP\s0 request using the certificate specified in the \fBsigner\fR +option and the private key specified by the \fBsignkey\fR option. If +the \fBsignkey\fR option is not present then the private key is read +from the same file as the certificate. If neither option is specified then +the \s-1OCSP\s0 request is not signed. +.IP "\fB\-sign_other filename\fR" 4 +.IX Item "-sign_other filename" +Additional certificates to include in the signed request. +.IP "\fB\-nonce\fR, \fB\-no_nonce\fR" 4 +.IX Item "-nonce, -no_nonce" +Add an \s-1OCSP\s0 nonce extension to a request or disable \s-1OCSP\s0 nonce addition. +Normally if an \s-1OCSP\s0 request is input using the \fBrespin\fR option no +nonce is added: using the \fBnonce\fR option will force addition of a nonce. +If an \s-1OCSP\s0 request is being created (using \fBcert\fR and \fBserial\fR options) +a nonce is automatically added specifying \fBno_nonce\fR overrides this. +.IP "\fB\-req_text\fR, \fB\-resp_text\fR, \fB\-text\fR" 4 +.IX Item "-req_text, -resp_text, -text" +print out the text form of the \s-1OCSP\s0 request, response or both respectively. +.IP "\fB\-reqout file\fR, \fB\-respout file\fR" 4 +.IX Item "-reqout file, -respout file" +write out the \s-1DER\s0 encoded certificate request or response to \fBfile\fR. +.IP "\fB\-reqin file\fR, \fB\-respin file\fR" 4 +.IX Item "-reqin file, -respin file" +read \s-1OCSP\s0 request or response file from \fBfile\fR.

Both \s-1HTTP\s0 and \s-1HTTPS\s0 (\s-1SSL/TLS\s0) URLs can be specified. +.IP "\fB\-host hostname:port\fR, \fB\-path pathname\fR" 4 +.IX Item "-host hostname:port, -path pathname" +if the \fBhost\fR option is present then the \s-1OCSP\s0 request is sent to the host +\&\fBhostname\fR on port \fBport\fR. \fBpath\fR specifies the \s-1HTTP\s0 path name to use +or \*(L"/\*(R" by default. +.IP "\fB\-CAfile file\fR, \fB\-CApath pathname\fR" 4 +.IX Item "-CAfile file, -CApath pathname" +file or pathname containing trusted \s-1CA\s0 certificates. These are used to verify +the signature on the \s-1OCSP\s0 response. +.IP "\fB\-verify_other file\fR" 4 +.IX Item "-verify_other file" +file containing additional certificates to search when attempting to locate +the \s-1OCSP\s0 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. +.IP "\fB\-trust_other\fR" 4 +.IX Item "-trust_other" +the certificates specified by the \fB\-verify_certs\fR 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 \s-1CA\s0 is not appropriate. +.IP "\fB\-VAfile file\fR" 4 +.IX Item "-VAfile file" +file containing explicitly trusted responder certificates. Equivalent to the +\&\fB\-verify_certs\fR and \fB\-trust_other\fR options. +.IP "\fB\-noverify\fR" 4 +.IX Item "-noverify" +don't attempt to verify the \s-1OCSP\s0 response signature or the nonce values. This +option will normally only be used for debugging since it disables all verification +of the responders certificate. +.IP "\fB\-no_intern\fR" 4 +.IX Item "-no_intern" +ignore certificates contained in the \s-1OCSP\s0 response when searching for the +signers certificate. With this option the signers certificate must be specified +with either the \fB\-verify_certs\fR or \fB\-VAfile\fR options. +.IP "\fB\-no_signature_verify\fR" 4 +.IX Item "-no_signature_verify" +don't check the signature on the \s-1OCSP\s0 response. Since this option tolerates invalid +signatures on \s-1OCSP\s0 responses it will normally only be used for testing purposes. +.IP "\fB\-no_cert_verify\fR" 4 +.IX Item "-no_cert_verify" +don't verify the \s-1OCSP\s0 response signers certificate at all. Since this option allows +the \s-1OCSP\s0 response to be signed by any certificate it should only be used for +testing purposes. +.IP "\fB\-no_chain\fR" 4 +.IX Item "-no_chain" +do not use certificates in the response as additional untrusted \s-1CA\s0 +certificates. +.IP "\fB\-no_cert_checks\fR" 4 +.IX Item "-no_cert_checks" +don't perform any additional checks on the \s-1OCSP\s0 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. +.IP "\fB\-validity_period nsec\fR, \fB\-status_age age\fR" 4 +.IX Item "-validity_period nsec, -status_age age" +these options specify the range of times, in seconds, which will be tolerated +in an \s-1OCSP\s0 response. Each certificate status response includes a \fBnotBefore\fR time and +an optional \fBnotAfter\fR 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 \s-1OCSP\s0 +responder and clients clocks may not be precisely synchronised and so such a check +may fail. To avoid this the \fB\-validity_period\fR option can be used to specify an +acceptable error range in seconds, the default value is 5 minutes. +.Sp +If the \fBnotAfter\fR time is omitted from a response then this means that new status +information is immediately available. In this case the age of the \fBnotBefore\fR field +is checked to see it is not older than \fBage\fR seconds old. By default this additional +check is not performed. +.SH "OCSP SERVER OPTIONS" +.IX Header "OCSP SERVER OPTIONS" +.IP "\fB\-index indexfile\fR" 4 +.IX Item "-index indexfile" +\&\fBindexfile\fR is a text index file in \fBca\fR format containing certificate revocation +information. +.Sp +If the \fBindex\fR option is specified the \fBocsp\fR 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 \fBissuer\fR and \fBserial\fR options), supplied in a file (using the +\&\fBrespin\fR option) or via external \s-1OCSP\s0 clients (if \fBport\fR or \fBurl\fR is specified). +.Sp +If the \fBindex\fR option is present then the \fB\s-1CA\s0\fR and \fBrsigner\fR options must also be +present. +.IP "\fB\-CA file\fR" 4 +.IX Item "-CA file" +\&\s-1CA\s0 certificate corresponding to the revocation information in \fBindexfile\fR. +.IP "\fB\-rsigner file\fR" 4 +.IX Item "-rsigner file" +The certificate to sign \s-1OCSP\s0 responses with. +.IP "\fB\-rother file\fR" 4 +.IX Item "-rother file" +Additional certificates to include in the \s-1OCSP\s0 response. +.IP "\fB\-resp_no_certs\fR" 4 +.IX Item "-resp_no_certs" +Don't include any certificates in the \s-1OCSP\s0 response. +.IP "\fB\-resp_key_id\fR" 4 +.IX Item "-resp_key_id" +Identify the signer certificate using the key \s-1ID\s0, default is to use the subject name. +.IP "\fB\-rkey file\fR" 4 +.IX Item "-rkey file" +The private key to sign \s-1OCSP\s0 responses with: if not present the file specified in the +\&\fBrsigner\fR option is used. +.IP "\fB\-port portnum\fR" 4 +.IX Item "-port portnum" +Port to listen for \s-1OCSP\s0 requests on. The port may also be specified using the \fBurl\fR +option. +.IP "\fB\-nrequest number\fR" 4 +.IX Item "-nrequest number" +The \s-1OCSP\s0 server will exit after receiving \fBnumber\fR requests, default unlimited. +.IP "\fB\-nmin minutes\fR, \fB\-ndays days\fR" 4 +.IX Item "-nmin minutes, -ndays days" +Number of minutes or days when fresh revocation information is available: used in the +\&\fBnextUpdate\fR field. If neither option is present then the \fBnextUpdate\fR field is +omitted meaning fresh revocation information is immediately available. +.SH "OCSP Response verification." +.IX Header "OCSP Response verification." +\&\s-1OCSP\s0 Response follows the rules specified in \s-1RFC2560\s0. +.PP +Initially the \s-1OCSP\s0 responder certificate is located and the signature on +the \s-1OCSP\s0 request checked using the responder certificate's public key. +.PP +Then a normal certificate verify is performed on the \s-1OCSP\s0 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 \fBCAfile\fR +and \fBCApath\fR options or they will be looked for in the standard OpenSSL +certificates directory. +.PP +If the initial verify fails then the \s-1OCSP\s0 verify process halts with an +error. +.PP +Otherwise the issuing \s-1CA\s0 certificate in the request is compared to the \s-1OCSP\s0 +responder certificate: if there is a match then the \s-1OCSP\s0 verify succeeds. +.PP +Otherwise the \s-1OCSP\s0 responder certificate's \s-1CA\s0 is checked against the issuing +\&\s-1CA\s0 certificate in the request. If there is a match and the OCSPSigning +extended key usage is present in the \s-1OCSP\s0 responder certificate then the +\&\s-1OCSP\s0 verify succeeds. +.PP +Otherwise the root \s-1CA\s0 of the \s-1OCSP\s0 responders \s-1CA\s0 is checked to see if it +is trusted for \s-1OCSP\s0 signing. If it is the \s-1OCSP\s0 verify succeeds. +.PP +If none of these checks is successful then the \s-1OCSP\s0 verify fails. +.PP +What this effectively means if that if the \s-1OCSP\s0 responder certificate is +authorised directly by the \s-1CA\s0 it is issuing revocation information about +(and it is correctly configured) then verification will succeed. +.PP +If the \s-1OCSP\s0 responder is a \*(L"global responder\*(R" which can give details about +multiple CAs and has its own separate certificate chain then its root +\&\s-1CA\s0 can be trusted for \s-1OCSP\s0 signing. For example: +.PP +.Vb 1 +\& openssl x509 -in ocspCA.pem -addtrust OCSPSigning -out trustedCA.pem +.Ve +.PP +Alternatively the responder certificate itself can be explicitly trusted +with the \fB\-VAfile\fR option. +.SH "NOTES" +.IX Header "NOTES" +As noted, most of the verify options are for testing or debugging purposes. +Normally only the \fB\-CApath\fR, \fB\-CAfile\fR and (if the responder is a 'global +\&\s-1VA\s0') \fB\-VAfile\fR options need to be used. +.PP +The \s-1OCSP\s0 server is only useful for test and demonstration purposes: it is +not really usable as a full \s-1OCSP\s0 responder.
