150 The B<cmp> command is a client implementation for the Certificate
151 Management Protocol (CMP) as defined in RFC4210.
152 It can be used to request certificates from a CA server,
153 update their certificates,
154 request certificates to be revoked, and perform other CMP requests.
162 Display a summary of all options
164 =item B<-config> I<filename>

167 An empty string C<""> means none.
168 Default filename is from the environment variable C<OPENSSL_CONF>.
170 =item B<-section> I<names>
172 Section(s) to use within config file defining CMP options.
173 An empty string C<""> means no specific section.
175 Multiple section names may be given, separated by commas and/or whitespace
176 (where in the latter case the whole argument must be enclosed in "...").
177 Contents of sections named later may override contents of sections named before.
178 In any case, as usual, the C<[default]> section and finally the unnamed
179 section (as far as present) can provide per-option fallback values.
184 =head2 Generic message options
188 =item B<-cmd> I<ir|cr|kur|p10cr|rr|genm>

285 =item B<-days> I<number>
287 Number of days the new certificate is requested to be valid for, counting from
288 the current time of the host.
289 Also triggers the explicit request that the
290 validity period starts from the current time (as seen by the host).

336 =item B<-csr> I<filename>
338 CSR in PKCS#10 format to use in legacy P10CR messages.
340 =item B<-out_trusted> I<filenames>
342 Trusted certificate(s) to use for verifying the newly enrolled certificate.
344 Multiple filenames may be given, separated by commas and/or whitespace
345 (where in the latter case the whole argument must be enclosed in "...").
346 Each source may contain multiple certificates.
348 =item B<-verify_hostname> I<name>
350 When verification of the newly enrolled certificate is enabled (with the
351 B<-out_trusted> option), check if any DNS Subject Alternative Name (or if no
352 DNS SAN is included, the Common Name in the subject) equals the given B<name>.
354 =item B<-verify_ip> I<ip>
356 When verification of the newly enrolled certificate is enabled (with the
357 B<-out_trusted> option), check if there is
358 an IP address Subject Alternative Name matching the given IP address.
360 =item B<-verify_email> I<email>

375 B<WARNING:> This leads to behavior violating RFC 4210.
377 =item B<-certout> I<filename>
379 The file where the newly enrolled certificate should be saved.
384 =head2 Certificate revocation options
388 =item B<-oldcert> I<filename>
390 The certificate to be updated (i.e., renewed or re-keyed) in Key Update Request
391 (KUR) messages or to be revoked in Revocation Request (RR) messages.
392 It must be given for RR, while for KUR it defaults to B<-cert>.
394 The reference certificate determined in this way, if any, is also used for
395 deriving default subject DN and Subject Alternative Names for IR, CR, and KUR.
396 Its subject is used as sender in CMP message headers if B<-cert> is not given.
397 Its issuer is used as default recipient in CMP message headers
398 if neither B<-recipient>, B<-srvcert>, nor B<-issuer> is given.
400 =item B<-revreason> I<number>

417 privilegeWithdrawn (9),
424 =head2 Message transfer options
428 =item B<-server> I<[http[s]://]address[:port]>
430 The IP address or DNS hostname and optionally port (defaulting to 80 or 443)
431 of the CMP server to connect to using HTTP(S) transport.
432 The optional "http://" or "https://" prefix is ignored.
434 =item B<-proxy> I<[http[s]://]address[:port][/path]>
436 The HTTP(S) proxy server to use for reaching the CMP server unless B<no_proxy>
438 The optional "http://" or "https://" prefix and any trailing path are ignored.
439 Defaults to the environment variable C<http_proxy> if set, else C<HTTP_PROXY>
440 in case no TLS is used, otherwise C<https_proxy> if set, else C<HTTPS_PROXY>.
442 =item B<-no_proxy> I<addresses>
443 List of IP addresses and/or DNS names of servers
444 not to use an HTTP(S) proxy for, separated by commas and/or whitespace
445 (where in the latter case the whole argument must be enclosed in "...").
446 Default is from the environment variable C<no_proxy> if set, else C<NO_PROXY>.
448 =item B<-path> I<remote_path>
450 HTTP path at the CMP server (aka CMP alias) to use for POST requests.
453 =item B<-msg_timeout> I<seconds>
455 Number of seconds (or 0 for infinite) a CMP request-response message round trip
456 is allowed to take before a timeout error is returned.
459 =item B<-total_timeout> I<seconds>
461 Maximum number seconds an overall enrollment transaction may take,
462 including attempts polling for certificates on C<waiting> PKIStatus.
463 Default is 0 (infinite).
468 =head2 Server authentication options
472 =item B<-trusted> I<filenames>
474 When verifying signature-based protection of CMP response messages,
475 these are the CA certificate(s) to trust while checking certificate chains
476 during CMP server authentication.
477 This option gives more flexibility than the B<-srvcert> option because the
478 protection certificate is not pinned but may be any certificate
479 for which a chain to one of the given trusted certificates can be constructed.
481 Multiple filenames may be given, separated by commas and/or whitespace
482 (where in the latter case the whole argument must be enclosed in "...").
483 Each source may contain multiple certificates.
485 =item B<-untrusted> I<sources>
487 Non-trusted intermediate certificate(s) that may be useful
488 for constructing the TLS client certificate chain (if TLS is enabled) and
489 for building certificate chains while verifying the CMP server certificate
490 (when checking signature-based CMP message protection)
491 and while verifying the newly enrolled certificate.
492 These may get added to the extraCerts field sent in requests as far as needed.
494 Multiple filenames may be given, separated by commas and/or whitespace.
495 Each file may contain multiple certificates.
497 =item B<-srvcert> I<filename>
499 The specific CMP server certificate to expect and directly trust (even if it is
500 expired) when verifying signature-based protection of CMP response messages.
501 May be set alternatively to the B<-trusted> option to pin the accepted server.
503 If set, the subject of the certificate is also used
504 as default value for the recipient of CMP requests
505 and as default value for the expected sender of CMP responses.
507 =item B<-recipient> I<name>
509 Distinguished Name (DN) to use in the recipient field of CMP request messages,
510 i.e., the CMP server (usually a CA or RA entity).
512 The argument must be formatted as I</type0=value0/type1=value1/type2=...>,
513 characters may be escaped by C<\>E<nbsp>(backslash), no spaces are skipped.
515 The recipient field in the header of a CMP message is mandatory.
516 If not given explicitly the recipient is determined in the following order:
517 the subject of the CMP server certificate given with the B<-srvcert> option,
518 the B<-issuer> option,
519 the issuer of the certificate given with the B<-oldcert> option,
520 the issuer of the CMP client certificate (B<-cert> option),
521 as far as any of those is present, else the NULL-DN as last resort.
523 =item B<-expect_sender> I<name>
525 Distinguished Name (DN) expected in the sender field of CMP response messages.
526 Defaults to the subject DN of the pinned B<-srvcert>, if any.
528 The argument must be formatted as I</type0=value0/type1=value1/type2=...>,
529 characters may be escaped by C<\>E<nbsp>(backslash), no spaces are skipped.
531 This can be used to make sure that only a particular entity is accepted as
532 CMP message signer, and attackers are not able to use arbitrary certificates
533 of a trusted PKI hierarchy to fraudulently pose as a CMP server.
534 Note that this option gives slightly more freedom than setting the B<-srvcert>,
535 which pins the server to the holder of a particular certificate, while the
536 expected sender name will continue to match after updates of the server cert.
538 =item B<-ignore_keyusage>
540 Ignore key usage restrictions in CMP signer certificates when verifying
541 signature-based protection of incoming CMP messages,
542 else C<digitalSignature> must be allowed for signer certificate.
544 =item B<-unprotected_errors>
546 Accept missing or invalid protection of negative responses from the server.
547 This applies to the following message types and contents:
551 =item * error messages
553 =item * negative certificate responses (IP/CP/KUP)
555 =item * negative revocation responses (RP)
557 =item * negative PKIConf messages
561 B<WARNING:> This setting leads to unspecified behavior and it is meant
562 exclusively to allow interoperability with server implementations violating
567 =item * section 5.1.3.1 allows exceptions from protecting only for special
569 "There MAY be cases in which the PKIProtection BIT STRING is deliberately not
570 used to protect a message [...] because other protection, external to PKIX, will
573 =item * section 5.3.21 is clear on ErrMsgContent: "The CA MUST always sign it
574 with a signature key."
576 =item * appendix D.4 shows PKIConf message having protection
580 =item B<-extracertsout> I<filename>
582 The file where to save any extra certificates received in the extraCerts field
583 of response messages.
585 =item B<-cacertsout> I<filename>
587 The file where to save any CA certificates received in the caPubs field of
588 Initializiation Response (IP) messages.
593 =head2 Client authentication options
597 =item B<-ref> I<value>
599 Reference number/string/value to use as fallback senderKID; this is required
600 if no sender name can be determined from the B<-cert> or <-subject> options and
601 is typically used when authenticating with pre-shared key (password-based MAC).
603 =item B<-secret> I<arg>
605 Source of secret value to use for creating PBM-based protection of outgoing
606 messages and for verifying any PBM-based protection of incoming messages.
607 PBM stands for Password-Based Message Authentication Code.
608 This takes precedence over the B<-cert> option.
610 For more information about the format of B<arg> see the
611 B<PASS PHRASE ARGUMENTS> section in L<openssl(1)>.
613 =item B<-cert> I<filename>
615 The client's current certificate.
616 Requires the corresponding key to be given with B<-key>.
617 The subject of this certificate will be used as the "sender" field
618 of outgoing CMP messages, while B<-subjectName> may provide a fallback value.
619 When using signature-based message protection, this "protection certificate"
620 will be included first in the extraCerts field of outgoing messages.
621 In Initialization Request (IR) messages this can be used for authenticating
622 using an external entity certificate as defined in appendix E.7 of RFC 4210.
623 For Key Update Request (KUR) messages this is also used as
624 the certificate to be updated if the B<-oldcert> option is not given.
625 If the file includes further certs, they are appended to the untrusted certs.
626 These may get added to the extraCerts field sent in requests as far as needed.
628 =item B<-key> I<filename>
630 The corresponding private key file for the client's current certificate given in
632 This will be used for signature-based message protection unless
633 the B<-secret> option indicating PBM or B<-unprotected_requests> is given.
635 =item B<-keypass> I<arg>
637 Pass phrase source for the private key given with the B<-key> option.
638 Also used for B<-cert> and B<-oldcert> in case it is an encrypted PKCS#12 file.
639 If not given here, the password will be prompted for if needed.
641 For more information about the format of B<arg> see the
642 B<PASS PHRASE ARGUMENTS> section in L<openssl(1)>.
644 =item B<-digest> I<name>
646 Specifies name of supported digest to use in RFC 4210's MSG_SIG_ALG
647 and as the one-way function (OWF) in MSG_MAC_ALG.
648 If applicable, this is used for message protection and
649 Proof-of-Possession (POPO) signatures.
650 To see the list of supported digests, use B<openssl list -digest-commands>.
651 Defaults to C<sha256>.
653 =item B<-mac> I<name>
655 Specifies the name of the MAC algorithm in MSG_MAC_ALG.
656 To get the names of supported MAC algorithms use B<openssl list -mac-algorithms>
657 and possibly combine such a name with the name of a supported digest algorithm,
658 e.g., hmacWithSHA256.
659 Defaults to C<hmac-sha1> as per RFC 4210.
661 =item B<-extracerts> I<sources>
663 Certificates to append in the extraCerts field when sending messages.
665 Multiple filenames or URLs may be given, separated by commas and/or whitespace
666 (where in the latter case the whole argument must be enclosed in "...").
667 Each source may contain multiple certificates.
669 =item B<-unprotected_requests>
671 Send messages without CMP-level protection.
676 =head2 Credentials format options
680 =item B<-certform> I<PEM|DER>

697 Pass phrase source for certificate given with the B<-trusted>, B<-untrusted>,
698 B<-out_trusted>, B<-extracerts>, B<-tls_extra>, or B<-tls_trusted> options.
699 If not given here, the password will be prompted for if needed.
701 For more information about the format of B<arg> see the
702 B<PASS PHRASE ARGUMENTS> section in L<openssl(1)>.
704 =item B<-engine> I<id>
706 Specifying a crypto engine B<id> will lead to obtaining a functional
707 reference to the specified engine, initializing it if needed.
708 The engine will be used for all algorithms supported for keys
709 prefixed by C<engine:>.
710 Engines may be defined in the OpenSSL config file as usual in an engine section.
712 Options specifying keys, like B<-key>, B<-newkey>, B<-tls_key> can prefix
713 C<engine:> to engine-specific identifiers for security tokens objects held by
715 The following example utilizes the RFC 7512 PKCS #11 URI scheme
716 as supported, e.g., by libp11:
717 C<-key engine:pkcs11:object=my-private-key;type=private;pin-value=1234>

763 Each source may contain multiple certificates.
765 =item B<-tls_host> I<name>
767 Address to be checked during hostname validation.
768 This may be a DNS name or an IP address.
769 If not given it defaults to the B<-server> address.
774 =head2 Client-side debugging options
780 Do not interactively prompt for input, for instance when a password is needed.
781 This can be useful for batch processing and testing.

969 When setting up CMP configurations and experimenting with enrollment options
970 typically various errors occur until the configuration is correct and complete.
971 When the CMP server reports an error the client will by default
972 check the protection of the CMP response message.
973 Yet some CMP services tend not to protect negative responses.
974 In this case the client will reject them, and thus their contents are not shown
975 although they usually contain hints that would be helpful for diagnostics.
976 For assisting in such cases the CMP client offers a workaround via the
977 B<-unprotected_errors> option, which allows accepting such negative messages.
982 =head2 Simple examples using the default OpenSSL configuration file
984 This CMP client implementation comes with demonstrative CMP sections
985 in the example configuration file F<openssl/apps/openssl.cnf>,
986 which can be used to interact conveniently with the Insta Demo CA.
988 In order to enroll an initial certificate from that CA it is sufficient
989 to issue the following shell commands.
992 export OPENSSL_CONF=openssl.cnf
993 wget 'http://pki.certificate.fi:8080/install-ca-cert.html/ca-certificate.crt\
994 ?ca-id=632&download-certificate=1' -O insta.ca.crt
995 openssl genrsa -out insta.priv.pem
996 openssl cmp -section insta
998 This should produce the file F<insta.cert.pem> containing a new certificate
999 for the private key held in F<insta.priv.pem>.
1000 It can be viewed using, e.g.,
1002 openssl x509 -noout -text -in insta.cert.pem
1004 In case the network setup requires using an HTTP proxy it may be given as usual
1005 via the environment variable B<http_proxy> or via the B<proxy> option or
1006 the CMP command-line argument B<-proxy>, for example
1008 -proxy http://192.168.1.1:8080
1010 In the Insta Demo CA scenario both clients and the server may use the pre-shared
1011 secret "insta" and the reference value "3078" to authenticate to each other.
1013 Alternatively, CMP messages may be protected in signature-based manner,
1014 where the trust anchor in this case is F<insta.ca.crt>
1015 and the client may use any certificate already obtained from that CA,
1016 as specified in the B<[signature]> section of the example configuration.
1017 This can be used in combination with the B<[insta]> section simply by
1019 openssl cmp -section insta,signature
1021 By default the CMP IR message type is used, yet CR works equally here.
1022 This may be specified directly at the command line:
1024 openssl cmp -section insta -cmd cr
1026 or by referencing in addition the B<[cr]> section of the example configuration:
1028 openssl cmp -section insta,cr
1030 In order to update the enrolled certificate one may call
1032 openssl cmp -section insta,kur
1034 using with PBM-based protection or
1036 openssl cmp -section insta,kur,signature
1038 using signature-based protection.
1040 In a similar way any previously enrolled certificate may be revoked by
1042 openssl cmp -section insta,rr -trusted insta.ca.crt
1046 openssl cmp -section insta,rr,signature
1048 Many more options can be used in the configuration file
1049 and/or on the command line.
1052 =head2 Certificate enrollment
1054 The following examples at first do not make use of a configuration file.
1055 They assume that a CMP server can be contacted on the local TCP port 80
1056 and accepts requests under the alias "/pkix/".
1058 For enrolling its very first certificate the client generates a first client key
1059 and sends an initial request message to the local CMP server
1060 using a pre-shared secret key for mutual authentication.
1061 In this example the client does not have the CA certificate yet,
1062 so we specify the name of the CA with the B<-recipient> option
1063 and save any CA certificates that we may receive in the C<capubs.pem> file.
1065 In below command line usage examples the C<\> at line ends is just used
1066 for formatting; each of the command invocations should be on a single line.
1068 openssl genrsa -out cl_key.pem
1069 openssl cmp -cmd ir -server 127.0.0.1:80 -path pkix/ \
1070 -ref 1234 -secret pass:1234-5678-1234-5678 \
1071 -recipient "/CN=CMPserver" \
1072 -newkey cl_key.pem -subject "/CN=MyName" \
1073 -cacertsout capubs.pem -certout cl_cert.pem
1076 =head2 Certificate update
1078 Then, when the client certificate and its related key pair needs to be updated,
1079 the client can send a key update request taking the certs in C<capubs.pem>
1080 as trusted for authenticating the server and using the previous cert and key
1081 for its own authentication.
1082 Then it can start using the new cert and key.
1084 openssl genrsa -out cl_key_new.pem
1085 openssl cmp -cmd kur -server 127.0.0.1:80 -path pkix/ \
1086 -trusted capubs.pem \
1087 -cert cl_cert.pem -key cl_key.pem \
1088 -newkey cl_key_new.pem -certout cl_cert.pem
1089 cp cl_key_new.pem cl_key.pem
1091 This command sequence can be repated as often as needed.
1094 =head2 Requesting information from CMP server
1096 Requesting "all relevant information" with an empty General Message.
1097 This prints information about all received ITAV B<infoType>s to stdout.
1099 openssl cmp -cmd genm -server 127.0.0.1 -path pkix/ \
1100 -ref 1234 -secret pass:1234-5678-1234-5678 \
1101 -recipient "/CN=CMPserver"
1104 =head2 Using a custom configuration file
1106 For CMP client invocations, in particular for certificate enrollment,
1107 usually many parameters need to be set, which is tedious and error-prone to do
1108 on the command line.
1109 Therefore the client offers the possibility to read
1110 options from sections of the OpenSSL config file, usually called B<openssl.cnf>.
1111 The values found there can still be extended and even overridden by any
1112 subsequently loaded sections and on the command line.
1114 After including in the configuration file the following sections:
1119 trusted = capubs.pem
1123 certout = cl_cert.pem
1126 recipient = "/CN=CMPserver"
1131 secret = pass:1234-5678-1234-567
1132 subject = "/CN=MyName"
1133 cacertsout = capubs.pem
1135 the above enrollment invocations reduce to
1137 openssl cmp -section cmp,cmp-init
1138 openssl cmp -cmd kur -newkey cl_key_new.pem
1140 and the above genm call reduces to
1142 openssl cmp -section cmp,cmp-init -cmd genm
