Certificate Key Matcher to verify the SSL certificate information

Certificate Key Matcher

Certificate Key Matcher is an application.

When discussing SSL, you are dealing with a number of different moving pieces at the same time. It is easy to become confused when dealing with extensive web infrastructures that include several domains, sub-domains, and internal networks because there is already a lot to manage for just a single domain.

When you generate a Certificate Signing Request, you are also given a Private Key, which must be kept secure on your server. This key is handed to you at the same time. Saving the CSR and the private key to the same directory is the standard method for keeping the CSR and the private key in sync with one another.

 

However, once the SSL certificate has been granted, it is essential that the certificate and the key be able to be matched up. This is particularly critical if you are processing many orders at the same time. If you don't do that, the installation won't go well.

Certificate Key Matcher Sample Task

You will need to execute the following OpenSSL commands in order to determine whether a certificate corresponds to a private key or a CSR corresponds to a certificate:

Using the commands openssl pkey -in privateKey.key -pubout -outform pem | sha256sum

sha256sum | openssl x509 -in certificate.crt -pubkey -noout -outform pem |

using the command openssl req -in CSR.csr -pubkey -noout -outform pem | sha256sum.

A useful piece of advice is that, out of the three, your private key is the most significant of the three. The other two are the CSR and the SSL Certificate. The safety of it is of the utmost importance. In the event that it is ever breached, your website will remain susceptible to attacks until you re-issue and re-install it.

 

Make sure that your private key is kept in a secure location where it can't be accessed by anyone who isn't authorized.

Make sure that the SSL (X509) certificate you're using matches the private key.

Make sure that the SSL (X509) certificate and the private key are compatible.

This little utility makes advantage of Open SSL to validate the following:

The input file or string is a valid PEM format.

X509 certificate input string or file that has been encoded with is a valid PEM.

-encoded RSA private key
PEM
X509 certificate that has been encoded matches PEM format
-encoded private RSA key
RSA's private key is not protected by DES3 encryption (does not require passphrase)

Usage

var ssl = ;var certPem = fs;var keyPem = fs;ssl;/ or read directly from files (feeding them to openssl):ssl; var ssl = ;var certPem = fs;var keyPem = fs;ssl;/ or read directly from files (

Certificate Key Matcher is a tool that allows you to compare your SSL and private key pairs.

Before continuing with the installation process, you are required to check both the CSR and the private key, regardless of whether you are replacing your existing SSL certificate or installing a new one. To your good fortune, this shouldn't present too much of a challenge.

 

You may check which CSR belongs to which certificate by using the OpenSSL commands that are provided below, and you can also check which private key relates to which certificate using the same method.

Using the commands openssl pkey -in privateKey.key -pubout -outform pem | sha256sum

sha256sum | openssl x509 -in certificate.crt -pubkey -noout -outform pem |

using the command openssl req -in CSR.csr -pubkey -noout -outform pem | sha256sum.

Find the matching CSR, SSL Certificate, and Private Key Pairs for your account.

By employing the following OpenSSL commands on your personal computer, you will be able to determine whether a certificate corresponds to a private key or a CSR corresponds to a certificate.

Using the commands openssl pkey -in privateKey.key -pubout -outform pem | sha256sum

sha256sum | openssl x509 -in certificate.crt -pubkey -noout -outform pem |

using the command openssl req -in CSR.csr -pubkey -noout -outform pem | sha256sum.

 

You are likely to run into trouble if there is even the slightest mismatch, particularly between a private key and an SSL certificate. It is likely that you will be required to re-issue, which will cause a significant amount of time to be wasted.
