Dear Maintainer,
I recently needed to update by smime-keyring with a new version of my own
certificate to a new one, and saved it to a file named
"cacert [email protected] renewed.p12".
Unfortunately 'smime_keys add_p12 "cacert [email protected]
renewed.p12"'
failed with the return code 256 from openssl and a dump of it's
commandline
options.
I looked into smime_keys and found that the perl-script builds the command
in line 156 directly from $ARGV[1]:
>>>> snip <<<<
156: my $cmd = "$opensslbin pkcs12 -in $ARGV[1] -out $pem_file";
157: system $cmd and die "'$cmd' returned $?";
>>>> snip <<<<
The error-message also contained the exact commandline it tried to execute
which was:
>>>> snip <<<<
'/usr/bin/openssl pkcs12 -in cacert [email protected] renewed.p12 -out
cacert [email protected] renewed.p12.pem' returned 256 at
/usr/bin/smime_keys line 157.
>>>> snip <<<<
As there were no quotation marks around the filename I tried it with a
symlink to the same file, but without any space in the filename and it
worked like a charm.
I therefore think that there is some kind of escaping of $ARGV[1]
neccesary
to stop smime_keys from passing the spaces directly to the shell that
executes openssl.
Kind regards, Andre
}}}
