The X509
certificate store holds trusted CA certificates used to verify peer certificates.
The easiest way to create a useful certificate store is:
cert_store = OpenSSL::X509::Store.new cert_store.set_default_paths
This will use your system's built-in certificates.
If your system does not have a default set of certificates you can obtain a set extracted from Mozilla CA certificate store by cURL maintainers here: curl.haxx.se/docs/caextract.html (You may wish to use the firefox-db2pem.sh script to extract the certificates from a local install to avoid man-in-the-middle attacks.)
After downloading or generating a cacert.pem from the above link you can create a certificate store from the pem file like this:
cert_store = OpenSSL::X509::Store.new cert_store.add_file 'cacert.pem'
The certificate store can be used with an SSLSocket like this:
ssl_context = OpenSSL::SSL::SSLContext.new ssl_context.verify_mode = OpenSSL::SSL::VERIFY_PEER ssl_context.cert_store = cert_store tcp_socket = TCPSocket.open 'example.com', 443 ssl_socket = OpenSSL::SSL::SSLSocket.new tcp_socket, ssl_context
The description for the error code set by the last call of verify
.
See also StoreContext#error_string
.
The callback for additional certificate verification. It is invoked for each certificate in the chain and can be used to implement custom certificate verification conditions.
The callback is invoked with two values, a boolean that indicates if the pre-verification by OpenSSL
has succeeded or not, and the StoreContext
in use.
The callback can use StoreContext#error=
to change the error code as needed. The callback must return either true or false.
NOTE: any exception raised within the callback will be ignored.

Creates a new X509::Store
.
static VALUE ossl_x509store_initialize(int argc, VALUE *argv, VALUE self) { X509_STORE *store; GetX509Store(self, store); if (argc != 0) rb_warn("OpenSSL::X509::Store.new does not take any arguments"); #if !defined(HAVE_OPAQUE_OPENSSL) /* [Bug #405] [Bug #1678] [Bug #3000]; already fixed? */ store->ex_data.sk = NULL; #endif X509_STORE_set_verify_cb(store, x509store_verify_cb); ossl_x509store_set_vfy_cb(self, Qnil); /* last verification status */ rb_iv_set(self, "@error", Qnil); rb_iv_set(self, "@error_string", Qnil); rb_iv_set(self, "@chain", Qnil); rb_iv_set(self, "@time", Qnil); return self; }
Adds the OpenSSL::X509::Certificate
cert to the certificate store.
See also the man page X509_STORE_add_cert(3).
static VALUE ossl_x509store_add_cert(VALUE self, VALUE arg) { X509_STORE *store; X509 *cert; cert = GetX509CertPtr(arg); /* NO NEED TO DUP */ GetX509Store(self, store); if (X509_STORE_add_cert(store, cert) != 1) ossl_raise(eX509StoreError, "X509_STORE_add_cert"); return self; }
Adds the OpenSSL::X509::CRL
crl to the store.
See also the man page X509_STORE_add_crl(3).
static VALUE ossl_x509store_add_crl(VALUE self, VALUE arg) { X509_STORE *store; X509_CRL *crl; crl = GetX509CRLPtr(arg); /* NO NEED TO DUP */ GetX509Store(self, store); if (X509_STORE_add_crl(store, crl) != 1) ossl_raise(eX509StoreError, "X509_STORE_add_crl"); return self; }
Adds the certificates in file to the certificate store. file is the path to the file, and the file contains one or more certificates in PEM format concatenated together.
See also the man page X509_LOOKUP_file(3).
static VALUE ossl_x509store_add_file(VALUE self, VALUE file) { X509_STORE *store; X509_LOOKUP *lookup; const char *path; GetX509Store(self, store); path = StringValueCStr(file); lookup = X509_STORE_add_lookup(store, X509_LOOKUP_file()); if (!lookup) ossl_raise(eX509StoreError, "X509_STORE_add_lookup"); if (X509_LOOKUP_load_file(lookup, path, X509_FILETYPE_PEM) != 1) ossl_raise(eX509StoreError, "X509_LOOKUP_load_file"); #if OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER < 0x10101000 || defined(LIBRESSL_VERSION_NUMBER) /* * X509_load_cert_crl_file() which is called from X509_LOOKUP_load_file() * did not check the return value of X509_STORE_add_{cert,crl}(), leaking * "cert already in hash table" errors on the error queue, if duplicate * certificates are found. This will be fixed by OpenSSL 1.1.1. */ ossl_clear_error(); #endif return self; }
Adds path as the hash dir to be looked up by the store.
See also the man page X509_LOOKUP_hash_dir(3).
static VALUE ossl_x509store_add_path(VALUE self, VALUE dir) { X509_STORE *store; X509_LOOKUP *lookup; const char *path; GetX509Store(self, store); path = StringValueCStr(dir); lookup = X509_STORE_add_lookup(store, X509_LOOKUP_hash_dir()); if (!lookup) ossl_raise(eX509StoreError, "X509_STORE_add_lookup"); if (X509_LOOKUP_add_dir(lookup, path, X509_FILETYPE_PEM) != 1) ossl_raise(eX509StoreError, "X509_LOOKUP_add_dir"); return self; }
Sets the default flags used by certificate chain verification performed with the Store
.
flags consists of zero or more of the constants defined in OpenSSL::X509
with name V_FLAG_* or'ed together.
OpenSSL::X509::StoreContext#flags=
can be used to change the flags for a single verification operation.
See also the man page X509_VERIFY_PARAM_set_flags(3).
static VALUE ossl_x509store_set_flags(VALUE self, VALUE flags) { X509_STORE *store; long f = NUM2LONG(flags); GetX509Store(self, store); X509_STORE_set_flags(store, f); return flags; }
Sets the store's default verification purpose. If specified, the verifications on the store will check every certificate's extensions are consistent with the purpose. The purpose is specified by constants:
X509::PURPOSE_SSL_CLIENT
X509::PURPOSE_SSL_SERVER
X509::PURPOSE_NS_SSL_SERVER
X509::PURPOSE_SMIME_SIGN
X509::PURPOSE_SMIME_ENCRYPT
X509::PURPOSE_CRL_SIGN
X509::PURPOSE_ANY
X509::PURPOSE_OCSP_HELPER
X509::PURPOSE_TIMESTAMP_SIGN
OpenSSL::X509::StoreContext#purpose=
can be used to change the value for a single verification operation.
See also the man page X509_VERIFY_PARAM_set_purpose(3).
static VALUE ossl_x509store_set_purpose(VALUE self, VALUE purpose) { X509_STORE *store; int p = NUM2INT(purpose); GetX509Store(self, store); X509_STORE_set_purpose(store, p); return purpose; }
Configures store to look up CA certificates from the system default certificate store as needed basis. The location of the store can usually be determined by:
OpenSSL::X509::DEFAULT_CERT_FILE
OpenSSL::X509::DEFAULT_CERT_DIR
See also the man page X509_STORE_set_default_paths(3).
static VALUE ossl_x509store_set_default_paths(VALUE self) { X509_STORE *store; GetX509Store(self, store); if (X509_STORE_set_default_paths(store) != 1) ossl_raise(eX509StoreError, "X509_STORE_set_default_paths"); return Qnil; }
Sets the time to be used in the certificate verifications with the store. By default, if not specified, the current system time is used.
OpenSSL::X509::StoreContext#time=
can be used to change the value for a single verification operation.
See also the man page X509_VERIFY_PARAM_set_time(3).
static VALUE ossl_x509store_set_time(VALUE self, VALUE time) { rb_iv_set(self, "@time", time); return time; }
Sets the default trust settings used by the certificate verification with the store.
OpenSSL::X509::StoreContext#trust=
can be used to change the value for a single verification operation.
See also the man page X509_VERIFY_PARAM_set_trust(3).
static VALUE ossl_x509store_set_trust(VALUE self, VALUE trust) { X509_STORE *store; int t = NUM2INT(trust); GetX509Store(self, store); X509_STORE_set_trust(store, t); return trust; }
Performs a certificate verification on the OpenSSL::X509::Certificate
cert.
chain can be an array of OpenSSL::X509::Certificate
that is used to construct the certificate chain.
If a block is given, it overrides the callback set by verify_callback=
.
After finishing the verification, the error information can be retrieved by error
, error_string
, and the resulting complete certificate chain can be retrieved by chain
.
static VALUE ossl_x509store_verify(int argc, VALUE *argv, VALUE self) { VALUE cert, chain; VALUE ctx, proc, result; rb_scan_args(argc, argv, "11", &cert, &chain); ctx = rb_funcall(cX509StoreContext, rb_intern("new"), 3, self, cert, chain); proc = rb_block_given_p() ? rb_block_proc() : rb_iv_get(self, "@verify_callback"); rb_iv_set(ctx, "@verify_callback", proc); result = rb_funcall(ctx, rb_intern("verify"), 0); rb_iv_set(self, "@error", ossl_x509stctx_get_err(ctx)); rb_iv_set(self, "@error_string", ossl_x509stctx_get_err_string(ctx)); rb_iv_set(self, "@chain", ossl_x509stctx_get_chain(ctx)); return result; }
