DESCRIPTION This sub-command of pki(1) is used to create a self-signed certificate.
OPTIONS -h, --help Print usage information with a summary of the available options.
-v, --debug level Set debug level, default: 1.
-+, --options file Read command line options from file.
-i, --in file Private key input file. If not given the key is read from STDIN.
-x, --keyid hex Smartcard or TPM private key object handle in hex format with an optional 0x prefix.
-t, --type type Type of the input key. Either priv, rsa, ecdsa, ed25519, ed448 or bliss, defaults to priv.
-d, --dn distinguished-name Subject and issuer distinguished name (DN). Required.
-a, --san subjectAltName subjectAltName extension to include in certificate. Can be used multiple times.
-l, --lifetime days Days the certificate is valid, default: 1095. Ignored if both an absolute start and end time are given.
-F, --not-before datetime Absolute time when the validity of the certificate begins. The strptime(3) format for the --not-before and --not-after options, default: %d.%m.%y %T
-s, --serial hex Serial number in hex. It is randomly allocated by default.
-e, --flag flag Add extendedKeyUsage flag. One of serverAuth, clientAuth, crlSign, or ocspSigning. Can be used multiple times.
-g, --digest digest Digest to use for signature creation. One of md5, sha1, sha224, sha256, sha384, or sha512. The default is determined based on the type and size of the signature key.
-R, --rsa-padding padding Padding to use for RSA signatures. Either pkcs1 or pss, defaults to pkcs1.
-f, --outform encoding Encoding of the created certificate file. Either der (ASN.1 DER) or pem (Base64 PEM), defaults to der.
-b, --ca Include CA basicConstraint extension in certificate.
-o, --ocsp uri OCSP AuthorityInfoAccess URI to include in certificate. Can be used multiple times.
-p, --pathlen len Set path length constraint.
-B, --addrblock block RFC 3779 address block to include in certificate. block is either a CIDR subnet (such as 10.0.0.0/8) or an arbitrary address range (192.168.1.7-192.168.1.13). Can be repeated to include multiple blocks. Please note that the supplied blocks are included in the certificate as is, so for standards compliance, multiple blocks must be supplied in correct order and adjacent blocks must be combined. Refer to RFC 3779 for details.
-n, --nc-permitted name Add permitted NameConstraint extension to certificate. For DNS or email constraints, the identity type is not always detectable by the given name. Use the dns: or email: prefix to force a constraint type.
-N, --nc-excluded name Add excluded NameConstraint extension to certificate. For DNS or email constraints, the identity type is not always detectable by the given name. Use the dns: or email: prefix to force a constraint type.
-X, --critical oid Add a critical extension with the given OID.
-M, --policy-mapping issuer-oid:subject-oid
-A, --policy-any len Add inhibitAnyPolicy constraint.
Certificate Policy Multiple certificatePolicy extensions can be added. Each with the following information:
-P, --cert-policy oid OID to include in certificatePolicy extension. Required.
-C, --cps-uri uri Certification Practice statement URI for certificatePolicy.
-U, --user-notice text User notice for certificatePolicy.
EXAMPLES Generate a self-signed certificate using the given RSA key:
pki --self --in key.der --dn "C=CH, O=strongSwan, CN=moon" \ --san moon.strongswan.org > cert.der
