=head1 NAME
|
|
|
|
SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb, SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb_userdata - set passwd callback for encrypted PEM file handling
|
|
|
|
=head1 SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
#include <openssl/ssl.h>
|
|
|
|
void SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb(SSL_CTX *ctx, pem_password_cb *cb);
|
|
void SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb_userdata(SSL_CTX *ctx, void *u);
|
|
|
|
int pem_passwd_cb(char *buf, int size, int rwflag, void *userdata);
|
|
|
|
=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb() sets the default password callback called
|
|
when loading/storing a PEM certificate with encryption.
|
|
|
|
SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb_userdata() sets a pointer to B<userdata> which
|
|
will be provided to the password callback on invocation.
|
|
|
|
The pem_passwd_cb(), which must be provided by the application, hands back the
|
|
password to be used during decryption. On invocation a pointer to B<userdata>
|
|
is provided. The pem_passwd_cb must write the password into the provided buffer
|
|
B<buf> which is of size B<size>. The actual length of the password must
|
|
be returned to the calling function. B<rwflag> indicates whether the
|
|
callback is used for reading/decryption (rwflag=0) or writing/encryption
|
|
(rwflag=1).
|
|
|
|
=head1 NOTES
|
|
|
|
When loading or storing private keys, a password might be supplied to
|
|
protect the private key. The way this password can be supplied may depend
|
|
on the application. If only one private key is handled, it can be practical
|
|
to have pem_passwd_cb() handle the password dialog interactively. If several
|
|
keys have to be handled, it can be practical to ask for the password once,
|
|
then keep it in memory and use it several times. In the last case, the
|
|
password could be stored into the B<userdata> storage and the
|
|
pem_passwd_cb() only returns the password already stored.
|
|
|
|
When asking for the password interactively, pem_passwd_cb() can use
|
|
B<rwflag> to check, whether an item shall be encrypted (rwflag=1).
|
|
In this case the password dialog may ask for the same password twice
|
|
for comparison in order to catch typos, that would make decryption
|
|
impossible.
|
|
|
|
Other items in PEM formatting (certificates) can also be encrypted, it is
|
|
however not usual, as certificate information is considered public.
|
|
|
|
=head1 RETURN VALUES
|
|
|
|
SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb() and SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb_userdata()
|
|
do not provide diagnostic information.
|
|
|
|
=head1 EXAMPLES
|
|
|
|
The following example returns the password provided as B<userdata> to the
|
|
calling function. The password is considered to be a '\0' terminated
|
|
string. If the password does not fit into the buffer, the password is
|
|
truncated.
|
|
|
|
int pem_passwd_cb(char *buf, int size, int rwflag, void *password)
|
|
{
|
|
strncpy(buf, (char *)(password), size);
|
|
buf[size - 1] = '\0';
|
|
return(strlen(buf));
|
|
}
