# NAME

Crypt::OpenSSL::PKCS12 - Perl extension to OpenSSL's PKCS12 API.

# SYNOPSIS

use Crypt::OpenSSL::PKCS12;

my $pass = "your password";
my $pkcs12 = Crypt::OpenSSL::PKCS12->new_from_file('cert.p12');

print $pkcs12->certificate($pass);
print $pkcs12->private_key($pass);

if ($pkcs12->mac_ok($pass)) {
...

# Creating a file
$pkcs12->create('test-cert.pem', 'test-key.pem', $pass, 'out.p12', 'friendly name');

# Creating a string
my $pksc12_data = $pkcs12->create_as_string('test-cert.pem', 'test-key.pem', $pass, 'friendly name');

# Reproducing OpenSSL's info
my $info = $pkcs12->info($pass);

# Accessing OpenSSL's info as a hash
my $info_hash = $pkcs12->info_as_hash($pass);

# VERSION

This documentation describes version 1.94 of Crypt::OpenSSL::PKCS12

# DESCRIPTION

PKCS12 is a file format for storing cryptography objects as a single file or string. PKCS12 is commonly used to bundle a private key with its X.509 certificate or to bundle all the members of a chain of trust.

This distribution implements a subset of OpenSSL's PKCS12 API.

# SUBROUTINES/METHODS

- new( )
- legacy\_support ( )

Check whether the openssl version installed supports the legacy provider.

- new\_from\_string( `$string` )
- new\_from\_file( `$filename` )

Create a new Crypt::OpenSSL::PKCS12 instance.

- certificate( \[`$pass`\] )

Get the Base64 representation of the certificate.

- ca\_certificate( \[`$pass`\] )

Get the Base64 representation of the CA certificate chain.

- private\_key( \[`$pass`\] )

Get the Base64 representation of the private key.

- as\_string( \[`$pass`\] )

Get the binary represenation as a string.

- mac\_ok( \[`$pass`\] )

Verifiy the certificates Message Authentication Code

- changepass( `$old`, `$new` )

Change a certificate's password.

- create( `$cert`, `$key`, `$pass`, `$output_file`, `$friendly_name` )

Create a new PKCS12 certificate. $cert & $key may either be strings or filenames.

`$friendly_name` is optional.

- create\_as\_string( `$cert`, `$key`, `$pass`, `$friendly_name` )

Create a new PKCS12 certificate string. $cert & $key may either be strings or filenames.

`$friendly_name` is optional.

Returns a string holding the PKCS12 certicate.

- info( `$pass` )

Returns a string containing the output of information about the pkcs12 file in
the same format as produced by the openssl command:

openssl pkcs12 -in certs/test_le_1.1.p12 -info -nodes

- info\_as\_hash( `$pass` )

Places the information about the pkcs12 file, the certificates and keys
in a hash.

The format of the hash is complex to represent the data in the PKCS12 file:

Essentially, the hash follows the format of the -info output.

1\. pkcs7\_data and pkcs7\_encrypted\_data are arrays as more than one of each can exist
2\. mac provieds the top level mac parameters for the file
3\. safe\_contents\_bag is an array that contains an array of bags
4\. bags is an array of bags
5\. a bag is a container for a key or certificate

Each bag has a type and the following are available:

1\. key\_bag
2\. certificate\_bag
3\. shrouded\_keybag
4\. secret\_bag
5\. safe\_contents\_bag
