How many letters can we enter for the PEM pass phrase?

Hello, I am wondering how many letters we can enter for the PEM pass phrase? It seems that the maxium length is 1024. Can we change the pass phrase later? if so, which functions can we use? Thanks in advance! _ Discover the new

0.9.8 fips compatible option ?

All, I understand that there is not currenlty a FIPS compatible option available for openSSL version 0.9.8x. We are hesitant to downgrade our current version to 0.9.7 due to outstanding security fixes that only exist in 0.9.8. I do however understand that there are plans to enable the 0.9.8

something about the PEM pass phrase

Hello, I use the function PEM_write_RSAPrivateKey(privateKeyFilePW, r,EVP_des_ede3_cbc(),NULL, 0, NULL, NULL) to write the RSA private key with a pass phrase. But I am wondering where the pass phrase is stored? later I use the function PEM_read_RSAPrivateKey(privateKeyFilePW, keyReading,

Generation of DES key

Hello, I need to encrypt a password with a DES key, I'm trying the following code: char * buff[20]; int theDESCheckResult; DES_cblock * theDESKey1; DES_key_schedule *theSchedule; DES_cblock * theOutput; ALMLog (@Enter your DBPassword); fgets((char *)buff, 10,

Generating Keys in Triple-DES encryption

Hi all, Background: My application reads an encrpyted-base64 password from a config file and decrypts the same inside the application. The password is encryped using Triple-DES algorithm. To encrypt and base64 the actual password, a stand-alone utility is provided. We run this utility, and then

SSL performance hit + buffer sizes

Hello everyone, I would like to know your view on Would the performance impact for transmitting 'X' bytes of unencrypted data over SSLized channel be almost same irrespective of the number of SSL_* calls ? Consider I am using a buffer of size 'buf_size' for SSL_read/write

RE : Generation of DES key

Hello Driss, I think, it will be theDESCheckResult = DES_set_key_checked(theDESKey1, theSchedule); DES_ecb_encrypt((DES_cblock *) buff, (DES_cblock *) theOutput, theSchedule, DES_ENCRYPT); Namely that DES_ecb_encrypt is described like that : void

Queries on Cert Store and load verify locations

Hi, I had a set of related questions regarding the trusted CA store and certificate chaining: 1. Lets say we have a chain of the form RootCA - SubCA - Server-certificate. Now, Will the openssl verify function be able to verify if I give only the SubCA as the trusted CA Cert and the above

RE: Generating Keys in Triple-DES encryption

Hi Jimmy, Thanks for your response. Kindly find my thoughts inlined.. Question: So, the question is: How can we generate a key for Triple DES encryption and write out the same in a file? Simple answer for 'how to generate a key for a symmetric cipher' is 'use a pseudo-random generator' to
