Overview

Package x509 parses X.509-encoded keys and certificates.

On UNIX systems the environment variables SSL_CERT_FILE and SSL_CERT_DIR can be used to override the system default locations for the SSL certificate file and SSL certificate files directory, respectively.

This is a fork of the Go library crypto/x509 package, primarily adapted for use with Certificate Transparency. Main areas of difference are:

  • Life as a fork:
  • Rename OS-specific cgo code so it doesn't clash with main Go library.
  • Use local library imports (asn1, pkix) throughout.
  • Add version-specific wrappers for Go version-incompatible code (in nilref_*_darwin.go, ptr_*_windows.go).
  • Laxer certificate parsing:
  • Add options to disable various validation checks (times, EKUs etc).
  • Use NonFatalErrors type for some errors and continue parsing; this can be checked with IsFatal(err).
  • Support for short bitlength ECDSA curves (in curves.go).
  • Certificate Transparency specific function:
  • Parsing and marshaling of SCTList extension.
  • RemoveSCTList() function for rebuilding CT leaf entry.
  • Pre-certificate processing (RemoveCTPoison(), BuildPrecertTBS(), ParseTBSCertificate(), IsPrecertificate()).
  • Revocation list processing:
  • Detailed CRL parsing (in revoked.go)
  • Detailed error recording mechanism (in error.go, errors.go)
  • Factor out parseDistributionPoints() for reuse.
  • Factor out and generalize GeneralNames parsing (in names.go)
  • Fix CRL commenting.
  • RPKI support:
  • Support for SubjectInfoAccess extension
  • Support for RFC3779 extensions (in rpki.go)
  • General improvements:
  • Export and use OID values throughout.
  • Export OIDFromNamedCurve().
  • Export SignatureAlgorithmFromAI().
  • Add OID value to UnhandledCriticalExtension error.
  • Minor typo/lint fixes.

Functions

func BuildPrecertTBS 

func BuildPrecertTBS(tbsData []byte, preIssuer *Certificate) ([]byte, error)

BuildPrecertTBS builds a Certificate Transparency pre-certificate (RFC 6962 s3.1) from the given DER-encoded TBSCertificate, returning a DER-encoded TBSCertificate.

This function removes the CT poison extension (there must be exactly 1 of these), preserving the order of other extensions.

If preIssuer is provided, this should be a special intermediate certificate that was used to sign the precert (indicated by having the special CertificateTransparency extended key usage). In this case, the issuance information of the pre-cert is updated to reflect the next issuer in the chain, i.e. the issuer of this special intermediate:

  • The precert's Issuer is changed to the Issuer of the intermediate
  • The precert's AuthorityKeyId is changed to the AuthorityKeyId of the intermediate.

func CreateCertificate 

func CreateCertificate(rand io.Reader, template, parent *Certificate, pub, priv interface{}) (cert []byte, err error)

CreateCertificate creates a new X.509v3 certificate based on a template. The following members of template are used:

  • SerialNumber
  • Subject
  • NotBefore, NotAfter
  • SignatureAlgorithm
  • For extensions:
  • KeyUsage
  • ExtKeyUsage
  • BasicConstraintsValid, IsCA, MaxPathLen, MaxPathLenZero
  • SubjectKeyId
  • AuthorityKeyId
  • OCSPServer, IssuingCertificateURL
  • SubjectTimestamps, SubjectCARepositories
  • DNSNames, EmailAddresses, IPAddresses, URIs
  • PolicyIdentifiers
  • ExcludedDNSDomains, ExcludedIPRanges, ExcludedEmailAddresses, ExcludedURIDomains, PermittedDNSDomainsCritical, PermittedDNSDomains, PermittedIPRanges, PermittedEmailAddresses, PermittedURIDomains
  • CRLDistributionPoints
  • RawSCT, SCTList

The certificate is signed by parent. If parent is equal to template then the certificate is self-signed. The parameter pub is the public key of the signee and priv is the private key of the signer.

The returned slice is the certificate in DER encoding.

All keys types that are implemented via crypto.Signer are supported (This includes *rsa.PublicKey and *ecdsa.PublicKey.)

The AuthorityKeyId will be taken from the SubjectKeyId of parent, if any, unless the resulting certificate is self-signed. Otherwise the value from template will be used.

func CreateCertificateRequest 

func CreateCertificateRequest(rand io.Reader, template *CertificateRequest, priv interface{}) (csr []byte, err error)

CreateCertificateRequest creates a new certificate request based on a template. The following members of template are used: Attributes, DNSNames, EmailAddresses, ExtraExtensions, IPAddresses, URIs, SignatureAlgorithm, and Subject. The private key is the private key of the signer.

The returned slice is the certificate request in DER encoding.

All keys types that are implemented via crypto.Signer are supported (This includes *rsa.PublicKey and *ecdsa.PublicKey.)

func DecryptPEMBlock 

func DecryptPEMBlock(b *pem.Block, password []byte) ([]byte, error)

DecryptPEMBlock takes a password encrypted PEM block and the password used to encrypt it and returns a slice of decrypted DER encoded bytes. It inspects the DEK-Info header to determine the algorithm used for decryption. If no DEK-Info header is present, an error is returned. If an incorrect password is detected an IncorrectPasswordError is returned. Because of deficiencies in the encrypted-PEM format, it's not always possible to detect an incorrect password. In these cases no error will be returned but the decrypted DER bytes will be random noise.

func EncryptPEMBlock 

func EncryptPEMBlock(rand io.Reader, blockType string, data, password []byte, alg PEMCipher) (*pem.Block, error)

EncryptPEMBlock returns a PEM block of the specified type holding the given DER-encoded data encrypted with the specified algorithm and password.

func IsEncryptedPEMBlock 

func IsEncryptedPEMBlock(b *pem.Block) bool

IsEncryptedPEMBlock returns if the PEM block is password encrypted.

func IsFatal added in v1.0.21 

func IsFatal(err error) bool

IsFatal indicates whether an error is fatal.

func MarshalECPrivateKey 

func MarshalECPrivateKey(key *ecdsa.PrivateKey) ([]byte, error)

MarshalECPrivateKey marshals an EC private key into ASN.1, DER format.

func MarshalPKCS1PrivateKey 

func MarshalPKCS1PrivateKey(key *rsa.PrivateKey) []byte

MarshalPKCS1PrivateKey converts a private key to ASN.1 DER encoded form.

func MarshalPKCS1PublicKey added in v1.0.10 

func MarshalPKCS1PublicKey(key *rsa.PublicKey) []byte

MarshalPKCS1PublicKey converts an RSA public key to PKCS#1, ASN.1 DER form.

func MarshalPKCS8PrivateKey added in v1.0.10 

func MarshalPKCS8PrivateKey(key interface{}) ([]byte, error)

MarshalPKCS8PrivateKey converts a private key to PKCS#8 encoded form. The following key types are supported: *rsa.PrivateKey, *ecdsa.PublicKey. Unsupported key types result in an error.

See RFC 5208.

func MarshalPKIXPublicKey 

func MarshalPKIXPublicKey(pub interface{}) ([]byte, error)

MarshalPKIXPublicKey serialises a public key to DER-encoded PKIX format.

func OIDFromNamedCurve added in v1.0.5 

func OIDFromNamedCurve(curve elliptic.Curve) (asn1.ObjectIdentifier, bool)

OIDFromNamedCurve returns the OID used to specify the use of the given elliptic curve.

func ParseCRL 

func ParseCRL(crlBytes []byte) (*pkix.CertificateList, error)

ParseCRL parses a CRL from the given bytes. It's often the case that PEM encoded CRLs will appear where they should be DER encoded, so this function will transparently handle PEM encoding as long as there isn't any leading garbage.

func ParseDERCRL 

func ParseDERCRL(derBytes []byte) (*pkix.CertificateList, error)

ParseDERCRL parses a DER encoded CRL from the given bytes.

func ParseECPrivateKey 

func ParseECPrivateKey(der []byte) (*ecdsa.PrivateKey, error)

ParseECPrivateKey parses an ASN.1 Elliptic Curve Private Key Structure.

func ParsePKCS1PrivateKey 

func ParsePKCS1PrivateKey(der []byte) (*rsa.PrivateKey, error)

ParsePKCS1PrivateKey returns an RSA private key from its ASN.1 PKCS#1 DER encoded form.

func ParsePKCS1PublicKey added in v1.0.10 

func ParsePKCS1PublicKey(der []byte) (*rsa.PublicKey, error)

ParsePKCS1PublicKey parses a PKCS#1 public key in ASN.1 DER form.

func ParsePKCS8PrivateKey 

func ParsePKCS8PrivateKey(der []byte) (key interface{}, err error)

ParsePKCS8PrivateKey parses an unencrypted, PKCS#8 private key. See RFC 5208.

func ParsePKIXPublicKey 

func ParsePKIXPublicKey(derBytes []byte) (pub interface{}, err error)

ParsePKIXPublicKey parses a DER encoded public key. These values are typically found in PEM blocks with "BEGIN PUBLIC KEY".

Supported key types include RSA, DSA, and ECDSA. Unknown key types result in an error.

On success, pub will be of type *rsa.PublicKey, *dsa.PublicKey, or *ecdsa.PublicKey.

func RemoveCTPoison 

func RemoveCTPoison(tbsData []byte) ([]byte, error)

RemoveCTPoison takes a DER-encoded TBSCertificate and removes the CT poison extension (preserving the order of other extensions), and returns the result still as a DER-encoded TBSCertificate. This function will fail if there is not exactly 1 CT poison extension present.

func RemoveSCTList added in v1.0.13 

func RemoveSCTList(tbsData []byte) ([]byte, error)

RemoveSCTList takes a DER-encoded TBSCertificate and removes the CT SCT extension that contains the SCT list (preserving the order of other extensions), and returns the result still as a DER-encoded TBSCertificate. This function will fail if there is not exactly 1 CT SCT extension present.

A Certificate represents an X.509 certificate.

func ParseCertificate 

func ParseCertificate(asn1Data []byte) (*Certificate, error)

ParseCertificate parses a single certificate from the given ASN.1 DER data. This function can return both a Certificate and an error (in which case the error will be of type NonFatalErrors).

func ParseCertificates 

func ParseCertificates(asn1Data []byte) ([]*Certificate, error)

ParseCertificates parses one or more certificates from the given ASN.1 DER data. The certificates must be concatenated with no intermediate padding. This function can return both a slice of Certificate and an error (in which case the error will be of type NonFatalErrors).

func ParseTBSCertificate 

func ParseTBSCertificate(asn1Data []byte) (*Certificate, error)

ParseTBSCertificate parses a single TBSCertificate from the given ASN.1 DER data. The parsed data is returned in a Certificate struct for ease of access.

func (*Certificate) CheckCRLSignature 

func (c *Certificate) CheckCRLSignature(crl *pkix.CertificateList) error

CheckCRLSignature checks that the signature in crl is from c.

func (*Certificate) CheckCertificateListSignature added in v1.0.5 

func (c *Certificate) CheckCertificateListSignature(crl *CertificateList) error

CheckCertificateListSignature checks that the signature in crl is from c.

func (*Certificate) CheckSignature 

func (c *Certificate) CheckSignature(algo SignatureAlgorithm, signed, signature []byte) error

CheckSignature verifies that signature is a valid signature over signed from c's public key.

func (*Certificate) CheckSignatureFrom 

func (c *Certificate) CheckSignatureFrom(parent *Certificate) error

CheckSignatureFrom verifies that the signature on c is a valid signature from parent.

func (*Certificate) CreateCRL 

func (c *Certificate) CreateCRL(rand io.Reader, priv interface{}, revokedCerts []pkix.RevokedCertificate, now, expiry time.Time) (crlBytes []byte, err error)

CreateCRL returns a DER encoded CRL, signed by this Certificate, that contains the given list of revoked certificates.

func (*Certificate) Equal 

func (c *Certificate) Equal(other *Certificate) bool

Equal indicates whether two Certificate objects are equal (by comparing their DER-encoded values).

func (*Certificate) IsPrecertificate added in v1.0.13 

func (c *Certificate) IsPrecertificate() bool

IsPrecertificate checks whether the certificate is a precertificate, by checking for the presence of the CT Poison extension.

func (*Certificate) Verify 

func (c *Certificate) Verify(opts VerifyOptions) (chains [][]*Certificate, err error)

Verify attempts to verify c by building one or more chains from c to a certificate in opts.Roots, using certificates in opts.Intermediates if needed. If successful, it returns one or more chains where the first element of the chain is c and the last element is from opts.Roots.

If opts.Roots is nil and system roots are unavailable the returned error will be of type SystemRootsError.

Name constraints in the intermediates will be applied to all names claimed in the chain, not just opts.DNSName. Thus it is invalid for a leaf to claim example.com if an intermediate doesn't permit it, even if example.com is not the name being validated. Note that DirectoryName constraints are not supported.

Extended Key Usage values are enforced down a chain, so an intermediate or root that enumerates EKUs prevents a leaf from asserting an EKU not in that list.

WARNING: this function doesn't do any revocation checking.

Example 
package main

import (
	"encoding/pem"

	"github.com/google/certificate-transparency-go/x509"
)

func main() {
	// Verifying with a custom list of root certificates.

func SignatureAlgorithmFromAI added in v1.0.5 

func SignatureAlgorithmFromAI(ai pkix.AlgorithmIdentifier) SignatureAlgorithm

SignatureAlgorithmFromAI converts an PKIX algorithm identifier to the equivalent local constant.

func (SignatureAlgorithm) String 

func (algo SignatureAlgorithm) String() string

type SignedCertificateTimestampList added in v1.0.6 

type SignedCertificateTimestampList struct {
	SCTList []SerializedSCT `tls:"minlen:1,maxlen:65335"`
}

SignedCertificateTimestampList is a list of signed certificate timestamps, from RFC6962 s3.3.

type SystemRootsError 

type SystemRootsError struct {
	Err error
}

SystemRootsError results when we fail to load the system root certificates.

func (SystemRootsError) Error 

func (se SystemRootsError) Error() string

type TBSCertList added in v1.0.5 

type TBSCertList struct {
	Raw                 asn1.RawContent
	Version             int
	Signature           pkix.AlgorithmIdentifier
	Issuer              pkix.RDNSequence
	ThisUpdate          time.Time
	NextUpdate          time.Time
	RevokedCertificates []*RevokedCertificate
	Extensions          []pkix.Extension
	// Cracked out extensions:
	AuthorityKeyID               []byte
	IssuerAltNames               GeneralNames
	CRLNumber                    int
	BaseCRLNumber                int // -1 if no delta CRL present
	IssuingDistributionPoint     IssuingDistributionPoint
	IssuingDPFullNames           GeneralNames
	FreshestCRLDistributionPoint []string
	OCSPServer                   []string
	IssuingCertificateURL        []string
}

TBSCertList represents the ASN.1 structure of the same name from RFC 5280, section 5.1. It has the same content as pkix.TBSCertificateList but the extensions are included in a parsed format.

type UnhandledCriticalExtension 

type UnhandledCriticalExtension struct {
	ID asn1.ObjectIdentifier
}

UnhandledCriticalExtension results when the certificate contains an extension that is marked as critical but which is not handled by this library.

func (UnhandledCriticalExtension) Error 

func (h UnhandledCriticalExtension) Error() string

type UnknownAuthorityError 

type UnknownAuthorityError struct {
	Cert *Certificate
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

UnknownAuthorityError results when the certificate issuer is unknown

func (UnknownAuthorityError) Error 

func (e UnknownAuthorityError) Error() string

type VerifyOptions 

type VerifyOptions struct {
	DNSName       string
	Intermediates *CertPool
	Roots         *CertPool // if nil, the system roots are used
	CurrentTime   time.Time // if zero, the current time is used
	// Options to disable various verification checks.
	DisableTimeChecks              bool
	DisableCriticalExtensionChecks bool
	DisableNameChecks              bool
	DisableEKUChecks               bool
	DisablePathLenChecks           bool
	DisableNameConstraintChecks    bool
	// KeyUsage specifies which Extended Key Usage values are acceptable. A leaf
	// certificate is accepted if it contains any of the listed values. An empty
	// list means ExtKeyUsageServerAuth. To accept any key usage, include
	// ExtKeyUsageAny.
	//
	// Certificate chains are required to nest extended key usage values,
	// irrespective of this value. This matches the Windows CryptoAPI behavior,
	// but not the spec.
	KeyUsages []ExtKeyUsage
	// MaxConstraintComparisions is the maximum number of comparisons to
	// perform when checking a given certificate's name constraints. If
	// zero, a sensible default is used. This limit prevents pathological
	// certificates from consuming excessive amounts of CPU time when
	// validating.
	MaxConstraintComparisions int
}

VerifyOptions contains parameters for Certificate.Verify. It's a structure because other PKIX verification APIs have ended up needing many options.
