The above certificate signing request's ASN.1 structure (as parsed by openssl) appears as the following, where the first number is the byte offset, d=depth, hl=header length of the current type, l=length of content:
SPKAC (Signed Public Key and Challenge, also known as Netscape SPKI) is a format for sending a certificate signing request (CSR): it encodes a public key, that can be manipulated using OpenSSL. [1] It is created using the little documented HTML keygen element [ 2 ] inside a number of Netscape compatible browsers .
The organization first generates a key pair, keeping the private key secret and using it to sign the CSR. The CSR contains information identifying the applicant and the applicant's public key that is used to verify the signature of the CSR - and the Distinguished Name (DN) that is unique for the person, organization or business. The CSR may be ...
S (signing) outputs a tag t on the key k and the input string x. V (verifying) outputs accepted or rejected on inputs: the key k, the string x and the tag t. S and V must satisfy the following: Pr [ k ← G(1 n), V( k, x, S(k, x) ) = accepted] = 1. [5] A MAC is unforgeable if for every efficient adversary A
In practice, a web site operator obtains a certificate by applying to a certificate authority with a certificate signing request. The certificate request is an electronic document that contains the web site name, company information and the public key. The certificate provider signs the request, thus producing a public certificate.
Due to the use of the self-signed PKCS#10 format for Certificate Signing Requests (CSR), certificates can be enrolled only for keys that support (some form of) signing. A limitation shared by other enrollment protocols based on PKCS#10 CSRs, e.g., EST and ACME , or even the web-based enrollment workflow of most PKI software where the requester ...
.p7r – response to CSR. Contains the newly-signed certificate, and the CA's own cert..p7s - Digital Signature. May contain the original signed file or message. Used in S/MIME for email signing. Defined in RFC 2311..p7m - Message (SignedData, EnvelopedData) e.g. encrypted ("enveloped") file, message or MIME email letter. Defined in RFC 2311.
