NAME
pkeyutl - public key algorithm utility
SYNOPSIS
openssl pkeyutl [-in file] [-out file] [-sigfile file] [-inkey file] [-keyform PEM|DER]
[-passin arg] [-peerkey file] [-peerform PEM|DER] [-pubin] [-certin] [-rev] [-sign]
[-verify] [-verifyrecover] [-encrypt] [-decrypt] [-derive] [-pkeyopt opt:value] [-hexdump]
[-asn1parse] [-engine id]
DESCRIPTION
The pkeyutl command can be used to perform public key operations using any supported
algorithm.
COMMAND OPTIONS
-in filename
This specifies the input filename to read data from or standard input if this option
is not specified.
-out filename
specifies the output filename to write to or standard output by default.
-inkey file
the input key file, by default it should be a private key.
-keyform PEM|DER
the key format PEM, DER or ENGINE.
-passin arg
the input key password source. For more information about the format of arg see the
PASS PHRASE ARGUMENTS section in openssl(1).
-peerkey file
the peer key file, used by key derivation (agreement) operations.
-peerform PEM|DER
the peer key format PEM, DER or ENGINE.
-engine id
specifying an engine (by its unique id string) will cause pkeyutl to attempt to obtain
a functional reference to the specified engine, thus initialising it if needed. The
engine will then be set as the default for all available algorithms.
-pubin
the input file is a public key.
-certin
the input is a certificate containing a public key.
-rev
reverse the order of the input buffer. This is useful for some libraries (such as
CryptoAPI) which represent the buffer in little endian format.
-sign
sign the input data and output the signed result. This requires a private key.
-verify
verify the input data against the signature file and indicate if the verification
succeeded or failed.
-verifyrecover
verify the input data and output the recovered data.
-encrypt
encrypt the input data using a public key.
-decrypt
decrypt the input data using a private key.
-derive
derive a shared secret using the peer key.
-hexdump
hex dump the output data.
-asn1parse
asn1parse the output data, this is useful when combined with the -verifyrecover option
when an ASN1 structure is signed.
NOTES
The operations and options supported vary according to the key algorithm and its
implementation. The OpenSSL operations and options are indicated below.
Unless otherwise mentioned all algorithms support the digest:alg option which specifies
the digest in use for sign, verify and verifyrecover operations. The value alg should
represent a digest name as used in the EVP_get_digestbyname() function for example sha1.
This value is used only for sanity-checking the lengths of data passed in to the pkeyutl
and for creating the structures that make up the signature (e.g. DigestInfo in RSASSA
PKCS#1 v1.5 signatures). In case of RSA, ECDSA and DSA signatures, this utility will not
perform hashing on input data but rather use the data directly as input of signature
algorithm. Depending on key type, signature type and mode of padding, the maximum
acceptable lengths of input data differ. In general, with RSA the signed data can't be
longer than the key modulus, in case of ECDSA and DSA the data shouldn't be longer than
field size, otherwise it will be silently truncated to field size.
In other words, if the value of digest is sha1 the input should be 20 bytes long binary
encoding of SHA-1 hash function output.
RSA ALGORITHM
The RSA algorithm supports encrypt, decrypt, sign, verify and verifyrecover operations in
general. Some padding modes only support some of these operations however.
-rsa_padding_mode:mode
This sets the RSA padding mode. Acceptable values for mode are pkcs1 for PKCS#1
padding, sslv23 for SSLv23 padding, none for no padding, oaep for OAEP mode, x931 for
X9.31 mode and pss for PSS.
In PKCS#1 padding if the message digest is not set then the supplied data is signed or
verified directly instead of using a DigestInfo structure. If a digest is set then the
a DigestInfo structure is used and its the length must correspond to the digest type.
For oeap mode only encryption and decryption is supported.
For x931 if the digest type is set it is used to format the block data otherwise the
first byte is used to specify the X9.31 digest ID. Sign, verify and verifyrecover are
can be performed in this mode.
For pss mode only sign and verify are supported and the digest type must be specified.
rsa_pss_saltlen:len
For pss mode only this option specifies the salt length. Two special values are
supported: -1 sets the salt length to the digest length. When signing -2 sets the salt
length to the maximum permissible value. When verifying -2 causes the salt length to
be automatically determined based on the PSS block structure.
DSA ALGORITHM
The DSA algorithm supports signing and verification operations only. Currently there are
no additional options other than digest. Only the SHA1 digest can be used and this digest
is assumed by default.
DH ALGORITHM
The DH algorithm only supports the derivation operation and no additional options.
EC ALGORITHM
The EC algorithm supports sign, verify and derive operations. The sign and verify
operations use ECDSA and derive uses ECDH. Currently there are no additional options other
than digest. Only the SHA1 digest can be used and this digest is assumed by default.
EXAMPLES
Sign some data using a private key:
openssl pkeyutl -sign -in file -inkey key.pem -out sig
Recover the signed data (e.g. if an RSA key is used):
openssl pkeyutl -verifyrecover -in sig -inkey key.pem
Verify the signature (e.g. a DSA key):
openssl pkeyutl -verify -in file -sigfile sig -inkey key.pem
Sign data using a message digest value (this is currently only valid for RSA):
openssl pkeyutl -sign -in file -inkey key.pem -out sig -pkeyopt digest:sha256
Derive a shared secret value:
openssl pkeyutl -derive -inkey key.pem -peerkey pubkey.pem -out secret
