Under rare circumstances this could produce a PKCS#12 file encrypted with an invalid key. I can just hit return and that works but if there was no password… Under rare circumstances this could produce a PKCS#12 file encrypted with an invalid key. There are a lot of options the meaning of some depends of whether a PKCS#12 file is being created or parsed. PKCS#12 files are used by several programs including Netscape, MSIE and MS Outlook. openssl pkcs12 -in pfxFile.pfx -out pemFile.pem to derive a pem file. When I then do openssl pkcs12 -in "NewPKCSWithoutPassphraseFile" it still prompts me for an import password. As a result some PKCS#12 files which triggered this bug from other implementations ( MSIE or Netscape) could not be decrypted by OpenSSL and similarly OpenSSL could produce PKCS#12 files which could not be decrypted by other implementations. The pkcs12 command allows PKCS#12 files (sometimes referred to as PFX files) to be created and parsed. Openssl passin argument. Under rare circumstances this could produce a PKCS#12 file encrypted with an invalid key. And If I just hit return, I get a PKCS#12 file whose password is an empty string and not one without a password. Anyways, this snippet demonstrates that native_tls is unable to deserialize the pfx file that rust-openssl generated. It asked for a password (I entered the pass I have for the pfx file) and after entering, before creating pem file asked for a pass phrase (I guess password to be used when decrypting), so I entered some word. As a result some PKCS#12 files which triggered this bug from other implementations (MSIE or Netscape) could not be decrypted by OpenSSL and similarly OpenSSL could produce PKCS#12 files which could not be decrypted by other implementations. The following examples show how to create a password protected PKCS #12 file that contains one or more certificates. How to use password argument in via command line to openssl for , With OpenSSL 1.0.1e the parameter to use is -passin or -passout . If no password argument is given and a password is required then the user is prompted to enter one: this will typically be read from the current terminal with echoing turned off. My OpenSSL version is OpenSSL 1.0.1f 6 Jan 2014 on Ubuntu Server 14.10 64-bit. Defines a file format commonly used to store private keys with accompanying public key certificates, protected with a password-based symmetric key. For more information about the openssl pkcs12 command, enter man pkcs12.. PKCS #12 file that contains one user certificate. Options. As a result some PKCS#12 files which triggered this bug from other implementations (MSIE or Netscape) could not be decrypted by OpenSSL and similarly OpenSSL could produce PKCS#12 files which could not be decrypted by other implementations. Why doesn't openssl::Pkcs12::from_der() take a password as an argument? Describe the bug: I'm trying to generate a pfx certificate for plastic scm with cert manager. openssl pkcs12 -export -nodes -out bundle.pfx -inkey mykey.key -in certificate.crt -certfile ca-cert.crt Why is it insisting on an export password when I have included -nodes? The openssl program provides a rich variety of commands ... pkcs12 PKCS#12 Data Management. It decodes the archive without one. DESCRIPTION. Parse a PKCS#12 file and output it to a file: openssl pkcs12 -in file.p12 -out file.pem Output only client certificates to a file: openssl pkcs12 -in file.p12 -clcerts -out file.pem Don't encrypt the private key: openssl pkcs12 -in file.p12 -out file.pem -nodes Print some info about a PKCS#12 file: openssl pkcs12 -in file.p12 -info -noout So this example would be: openssl aes-256-cbc -in some_file.enc -out So it's not the most secure practice to pass a password in through a command line argument.
