DEPENDENCIES
This module requires:
Convert::ASN1
NAME
Crypt::PKCS10 - Parses PKCS #10 requests
SYNOPSIS
use Crypt::PKCS10;
$decoded = CSR->new($csr);
$version = $decoded->version;
DESCRIPTION
Crypt::PKCS10 parses certificate signing requests to perl
data structure and provides accessor methods to supported
elements.
It is based on the generic ASN.1 module by Graham Barr and on the
x509decode example by Norbert Klasen. It is also based upon the
works of Duncan Segrests Crypt-X509-CRL module.
Note: The module parses common fields and extensions. Some
fields might be missing.
CONSTRUCTOR
new ( FILE )
Takes a variable containing the PEM or DER formatted
PKCS #10 request and returns a hash of it.
Example:
use Crypt::PKCS10;
use Data::Dumper;
$Data::Dumper::Useqq = 1;
$decoded = CSR->new($csr);
print Dumper $decoded;
METHODS
The most common fields have own accessor methods. It is also
possible to access these fields directly using the hash, though.
Some methods transform the fields in order to provide printable
strings.
The following methods are implemented:
* version
Returns v1, v2 or v3 indicating the version.
* commonName
* organizationalUnitName
* emailAddress
* stateOrProvinceName
* countryName
* pkAlgorithm
* subjectPublicKey
Returns subjectPublicKey in its hex representation.
* signatureAlgorithm
* signature
Returns signatur in its hex representation.
* attributes
Returns a HASH containing the attributes.
Example:
%attributes = $decoded->attributes;
print Dumper(\%attributes);
* certificateTemplate
A Microsoft specific extension.
