Good evening everybody,
I need help about to transform public key (unsigned char *) retrieved from IEEE cert in EVP_PKEY o EC_KEY. The public key is an ecdsaNistP256 in compressed form (compressedy1).
The public key form in hex =
|00|80|83|x point (32 bytes)|
Thanks,
Best Regards

Hi everyone,
Someone can help for adding the ciphersuite " ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_128_CCM " and "ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_256_CCM " in openssl?
I tried adding in the file tls1.h??? # define TLS1_CK_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_128_CCM??????????? 0x0300C0AC
??? # define TLS1_CK_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_256_CCM??????????? 0x0300C0AD
And modifing the file? ssl_ciph.c the functions??? ssl_load_ciphers() ... And modifing the file evp_cipher.c and sssl_locl.cand finaly ssl_algs.c.
There are no way to make it works. It continue to give me? error: ssl3_get_client_hello:no shared cipher:s3_srvr.c:1420
thanks.

These ciphersuites already exist in OpenSSL (from version 1.1.0).

Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8"
On any new install of our software we generate new dh parameters as follows?
DH *dh = DH_new();
!DH_generate_parameters_ex(dh, 2048, 2, NULL);
int codes = 0;
DH_check(dh, &codes);
DH_generate_key(dh);
It takes a long time. Is there some way to have it use all available cores instead of just the one?

You'll have to write the code to do that parallelism yourself.

Good Evening all,
I have 2 Root Certificate Authorities which I want to use to cross sign
an intermediate certificate. I created a certificate request and signed
it with both CAs.
I issued an end user certificate with the intermediate CA and added both
intermediate CA Certificates (the one from Root1 and the one signed by
Root2). If only one CA is trusted, the certificate is still recognized
as trusted in Firefox regardless which certificate is on top of the
chain (Which is exactly what I want.)
I wondered if I can connect both intermediate Certificates to a single
certificate or do I always need both certificates?
Best Regards,
Moritz

Think of it this way:
As far as the RSA algorithm is concerned, the AES keys are just data. They
happen to be AES keys, but they might have been a hash value, an image, or
somebody's date of birth.
If getting the cleartext as well as the encrypted text for an RSA message
would allow you to more easily guess the RSA key, then the RSA algorithm
would be seriously flawed.
There is no known attack against RSA for which this is true, however, as
Rich pointed out.

Are you suggesting that I should modify openssl myself to expose that functionality or are suggesting that there is a way to do that given the already exposed functionality? If it is the latter could you point me in the right direction?

OpenSSL code does not do what you want. You'll have to write it
