Openssl的证书操作

先假设自己是一个CA，而且是一个root CA，Cliu8CA

生成一个CA的private key

openssl genrsa -out caprivate.key 1024

当然可以跟密码

openssl genrsa -out caprivatepass.key 1024 -des3 -passout hello:world 1024

CA有一个certificate，里面放着CA的public key，要生成这个certificate，则需要写一个certificate request

# openssl req -key caprivate.key -new -out cacertificate.req                          
You are about to be asked to enter information that will be incorporated
into your certificate request.
What you are about to enter is what is called a Distinguished Name or a DN.
There are quite a few fields but you can leave some blank
For some fields there will be a default value,
If you enter '.', the field will be left blank.

这个证书请求需要更高级的CA用它的private key对这个证书请求进行签发，方才能被大家公认(如果大家相信的是更高级的CA，则可以用更高级的CA的certificate审核这个证书)

由于这里的CA是root CA，没有更高级的CA了，所以要进行自签发，用自己的private key对自己的certificate请求进行签发

CA的证书和private key应该是一对

我们首先获取certificate中public key的RSA模

# openssl x509 -in cacertificate.pem -noout -modulus
Modulus=C5F1AA1E01041BA5DD7AEFC37D2A9C73B646BBF8BE909D3FD8D7D6D58BA517E3AAE537BDCDFBDA84CE0B3856B4196DF61132BBE5772D753949A02A6CFDED390DB559BC6009C65F06A0AA53A53B94AD08A713991BC4E43879079EFDC12DDBABF62ED32C512456E33F60FDE4B56B1BFFF28B837D11A110D68575ED0D76697AAC77

然后获取private key的RSA模

# openssl rsa -in caprivate.key -noout -modulus
Modulus=C5F1AA1E01041BA5DD7AEFC37D2A9C73B646BBF8BE909D3FD8D7D6D58BA517E3AAE537BDCDFBDA84CE0B3856B4196DF61132BBE5772D753949A02A6CFDED390DB559BC6009C65F06A0AA53A53B94AD08A713991BC4E43879079EFDC12DDBABF62ED32C512456E33F60FDE4B56B1BFFF28B837D11A110D68575ED0D76697AAC77

应该是一致的

下面假设自己是一个普通的机构Cliu8Site

这个普通的机构需要有自己的private key

openssl genrsa -out cliu8siteprivate.key 1024

也需要一个证书，里面放自己的public key，需要一个证书请求

# openssl req -key cliu8siteprivate.key -new -out cliu8sitecertificate.req                
You are about to be asked to enter information that will be incorporated
into your certificate request.

要使得这个证书被认可，则需要一个CA对这个证书进行签名，我们用上面的Cliu8CA的private key对他进行签名

其实这个过程是Cliu8Site这个普通网站，将自己的请求发送给Cliu8CA后，由Cliu8CA来做的，只有Cliu8CA才有自己的private key

# openssl x509 -req -in cliu8sitecertificate.req -CA cacertificate.pem -CAkey caprivate.key -out cliu8sitecertificate.pem -CAcreateserial

从这个证书我们可以看到，它是Cliu8CA颁发给Cliu8Site的

Cliu8Site的certificate和public key是应该相互匹配的

证书链的验证过程

假设我是一个普通用户，要访问网站Cliu8Site，通过https协议

Cliu8Site会用自己的private key cliu8siteprivate.key加密数据，传给我，我接收到数据后，需要用Cliu8Site的public key进行解密

这个时候Cliu8Site会把它的certificate cliu8sitecertificate.pem通过浏览器传给我，里面就有public key。

但是我怎么能够相信这个certificate呢？我不相信，需要更高的权威机构

我查看cliu8sitecertificate.pem，发现这个certificate是由Cliu8CA进行签发的，所谓签发，也即用Cliu8CA的private key caprivate.key进行的签名。所以我要从Cliu8CA的网站上下载它的certificate，cacertificate.pem，里面包含这public key，我们用这个public key来解签名

# openssl verify -CAfile cacertificate.pem cliu8sitecertificate.pem
cliu8sitecertificate.pem: OK

哦，我明白了，Cliu8CA可以证明cliu8sitecertificate.pem是一个对的certificate，里面的public key是可以信任的，你是可以用它来解密Cliu8Site发来的数据。

但是问题来了，我能相信Cliu8CA这个机构么？

我查看cacertificate.pem，发现它是自签名的，也即是一个root certificate，没有一个更高的机构为它证明了。

如果我相信Cliu8CA这个机构，那么我解密Cliu8Site的数据，接着进行我们之间的信息交互。

如果我不相信Cliu8CA这个机构，在交互到此为止。

当然有的时候，我们发现Cliu8CA这个机构的证书是更高权威机构签名的，比如是BeijingPoliceOffice签发的，如果你相信他，你就可以进行访问。这就是证书链。
