<h1 id="NOTES">NOTES</h1>
<p><b>rsautl</b> because it uses the RSA algorithm directly can only be used to sign or verify small pieces of data.</p>
<h1 id="EXAMPLES">EXAMPLES</h1>
<p>Sign some data using a private key:</p>
<pre><code> openssl rsautl -sign -in file -inkey key.pem -out sig</code></pre>
<p>Recover the signed data</p>
<pre><code> openssl rsautl -verify -in sig -inkey key.pem</code></pre>
<p>Examine the raw signed data:</p>
<pre><code> openssl rsautl -verify -in sig -inkey key.pem -raw -hexdump
0000 - 00 01 ff ff ff ff ff ff-ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ................
0010 - ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff-ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ................
0020 - ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff-ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ................

0070 - ff ff ff ff 00 68 65 6c-6c 6f 20 77 6f 72 6c 64 .....hello world</code></pre>
<p>The PKCS#1 block formatting is evident from this. If this was done using encrypt and decrypt the block would have been of type 2 (the second byte) and random padding data visible instead of the 0xff bytes.</p>
<p>It is possible to analyse the signature of certificates using this utility in conjunction with <b>asn1parse</b>. Consider the self signed example in certs/pca-cert.pem . Running <b>asn1parse</b> as follows yields:</p>
<pre><code> openssl asn1parse -in pca-cert.pem
0:d=0 hl=4 l= 742 cons: SEQUENCE
4:d=1 hl=4 l= 591 cons: SEQUENCE
8:d=2 hl=2 l= 3 cons: cont [ 0 ]
10:d=3 hl=2 l= 1 prim: INTEGER :02
13:d=2 hl=2 l= 1 prim: INTEGER :00
16:d=2 hl=2 l= 13 cons: SEQUENCE
18:d=3 hl=2 l= 9 prim: OBJECT :md5WithRSAEncryption
29:d=3 hl=2 l= 0 prim: NULL
31:d=2 hl=2 l= 92 cons: SEQUENCE
33:d=3 hl=2 l= 11 cons: SET
35:d=4 hl=2 l= 9 cons: SEQUENCE
37:d=5 hl=2 l= 3 prim: OBJECT :countryName
42:d=5 hl=2 l= 2 prim: PRINTABLESTRING :AU
....
599:d=1 hl=2 l= 13 cons: SEQUENCE
601:d=2 hl=2 l= 9 prim: OBJECT :md5WithRSAEncryption
612:d=2 hl=2 l= 0 prim: NULL
614:d=1 hl=3 l= 129 prim: BIT STRING</code></pre>
<p>The final BIT STRING contains the actual signature. It can be extracted with:</p>
<pre><code> openssl asn1parse -in pca-cert.pem -out sig -noout -strparse 614</code></pre>
<p>The certificate public key can be extracted with:</p>
<pre><code> openssl x509 -in test/testx509.pem -pubkey -noout >pubkey.pem</code></pre>
<p>The signature can be analysed with:</p>
<pre><code> openssl rsautl -in sig -verify -asn1parse -inkey pubkey.pem -pubin
0:d=0 hl=2 l= 32 cons: SEQUENCE
2:d=1 hl=2 l= 12 cons: SEQUENCE
4:d=2 hl=2 l= 8 prim: OBJECT :md5
14:d=2 hl=2 l= 0 prim: NULL
16:d=1 hl=2 l= 16 prim: OCTET STRING
0000 - f3 46 9e aa 1a 4a 73 c9-37 ea 93 00 48 25 08 b5 .F...Js.7...H%..</code></pre>
<p>This is the parsed version of an ASN1 DigestInfo structure. It can be seen that the digest used was md5. The actual part of the certificate that was signed can be extracted with:</p>
<pre><code> openssl asn1parse -in pca-cert.pem -out tbs -noout -strparse 4</code></pre>
<p>and its digest computed with:</p>
<pre><code> openssl md5 -c tbs
MD5(tbs)= f3:46:9e:aa:1a:4a:73:c9:37:ea:93:00:48:25:08:b5</code></pre>
<p>which it can be seen agrees with the recovered value above.</p>
