certverify
|
||||
|
||||
This is a small utility to verify a TLS X.509 certificate. It returns
|
||||
0 on success; on error, it prints the error and returns with exit code 1.
|
||||
It does not check for revocations (though this is a planned feature),
|
||||
and it does not check the hostname (it deals only in certificate files).
|
||||
|
||||
[ Usage ]
|
||||
certverify [-ca bundle] [-f] [-i bundle] [-v] certificate
|
||||
|
||||
[ Flags ]
|
||||
-ca bundle Specify the path to the CA certificate bundle
|
||||
to use.
|
||||
-f Force the use of the intermediate bundle, ignoring
|
||||
any intermediates bundled with the certificate.
|
||||
-i bundle Specify the path to the intermediate certificate
|
||||
bundle to use.
|
||||
-v Print extra information during the program's run.
|
||||
If the certificate validates, also prints 'OK'.
|
||||
|
||||
[ Examples ]
|
||||
|
||||
To verify the 'www.pem' certificate against the system roots:
|
||||
|
||||
$ certverify www.pem
|
||||
$ echo $?
|
||||
0
|
||||
|
||||
To verify the 'www.pem' certificate against the 'ca-cert.pem' CA
|
||||
certificate bundle, and seeing a mismatch:
|
||||
|
||||
$ certverify -ca ca-cert.pem www.pem
|
||||
Verification failed: x509: certificate signed by unknown authority
|
||||
$ echo $?
|
||||
1
