Créer sa CA et signer ses certificats

Pour cela, on va se rendre dans un dossier isolé :

# mkdir /root/ca && cd /root/ca

puis on va créer l'organisation de dossier suivante:

# mkdir certs crl newcerts private csr

# chmod 700 private

Et on créer les fichiers de contrôle :

# touch index.txt

# echo 1000 > serial

# echo 0000 > crlnumber

puis on créer le fichier :

openssl.cnf

[ ca ]
# `man ca`
default_ca = CA_default
 
[ CA_default ]
# Directory and file locations.

# The root key and root certificate.

# SHA-1 is deprecated, so use SHA-2 instead.

On génére ensuite la clé privé du CA root :

# openssl genrsa -out private/ca.key 4096

et puis le certificat :

# openssl req -config openssl.cnf \
      -key private/ca.key \
      -new -x509 -days 7300 -extensions v3_ca \
      -out certs/ca.pem

If faut d’abord créer la clé privée du certificat :

# openssl genrsa -out private/server.key 4096

puis le CSR :

# openssl req -config openssl.cnf -key private/server.key -new -out csr/server.csr

Et puis on le signe :

# openssl ca -config openssl.cnf -extensions server_cert -days 375 -notext -in csr/server.csr -out certs/server.pem

On va donc révoquer le certificat :

# openssl ca -config openssl.cnf -revoke certs/server.pem

puis pour garder un peu de clarté, on va le déplacer dans le dossier crl :

# mv certs/server.pem crl/

Et puis on génère le fichier CRL:

# openssl ca -config openssl.cnf -gencrl -out crl/ca-crl.pem
