The signature is invalid since it leaves an space outside the signing range.

The certificate is self-signed. Its validity (not the correctness of the
signature) is problematic to say the least.

Again, as a certificate, this is a crappy.

But this detects document modifications after being signed.

Just in case Hans reads the message:

It would be great that OpenSSL asks for the password directly.

This is a basic security issue, not to leave plain-text passwords on the
terminal.

Many thanks for your help,
