| 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] [-r] [-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.
 | |
|         -r              Print revocation and expiry information.
 | |
|         -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
 | |
| 
 | |
| Using the stealchain (../stealchain) util, print revocation and expiry
 | |
| information for google.com:
 | |
| 
 | |
|         $ stealchain google.com
 | |
|         [+] wrote google.com.pem.
 | |
|         $ certverify -r google.com.pem 
 | |
|         certificate expires in 53d.
