Hi, I am just getting started with the OpenSSL crypto lib. What I need to do is to extract an unknown extension from a X509V3 cert.
I have been successful in finding out that X509_EXTENSION_get_data does return the contents of the extension. However what does X509_EXTENSION_get_object give me then? I assume the returned ASN1_object is a description of the extension, and the data field contains the OID, right? (the length field currently gives me 8 bytes and the nid is 0 (for unknown I assume)). Can anybody tell me how I can compare this OID to another one that I have as a string (i.e. 1.3.6.1.5.5.7.0.12)? Or asked another way, how should I proceed if I only want to extract all the extensions that have the above OID from a X509V3 PKC.
