如何计算X.509证书的SHA-1指纹?
我正在尝试从头开始实现 X.509 证书生成器(我知道现有的证书生成器,但我还需要另一个)。我无法理解的是如何计算证书的 SHA-1(或任何其他)指纹。
RFC5280 表示签名函数的输入是DER 编码的 tbsCertificate 字段。不幸的是,我计算的哈希值与 OpenSSL 生成的哈希值不同。这是一个分步示例。
- 使用 OpenSSL 的 x509 工具生成证书(采用二进制 DER 形式,不是 ASCII PEM)
- 使用
openssl x509 -fingerprint
计算其 SHA-1 哈希 - 使用 < 提取 TBS 字段code>dd (或其他任何内容)并将其存储在单独的文件中;使用
sha1sum
实用程序计算其哈希值
现在,我在步骤 2 和步骤 3 中获得的哈希值不同。有人可以给我提示我可能做错了什么吗?
I'm trying to implement an X.509 certificate generator from scratch (I know about the existing ones, but I need yet another one). What I cannot understand is how to calculate the SHA-1 (or any other) fingerprint of the certificate.
The RFC5280 says that the input to the signature function is the DER-encoded tbsCertificate field. Unfortunately, the hash that I calculate differs from the one produced by OpenSSL. Here's a step-by-step example.
- Generate a certificate using OpenSSL's x509 tool (in a binary DER form, not the ASCII PEM)
- Calculate its SHA-1 hash using
openssl x509 -fingerprint
- Extract the TBS field using
dd
(or anything else) and store it in a separate file; calculate its hash using thesha1sum
utility
Now, the hashes I get at steps 2 and 3 are different. Can someone please give me a hint what I may be doing wrong?

好吧,事实证明,OpenSSL 计算出的指纹只是整个证书的哈希值(采用 DER 二进制编码,不是 ASCII PEM 编码!),而不是正如我所想,只有TBS部分。
对于任何关心计算证书摘要的人来说,它是以不同的方式完成的:哈希值是通过 DER 编码(同样,不是 PEM 字符串)TBS 部分计算的,包括其 ASN.1 标头(ID 0x30 == ASN1_SEQUENCE | ASN1_CONSTRUCTED 和长度字段)。请注意,不考虑证书的 ASN.1 标头。
Ok, so it turned out that the fingerprint calculated by OpenSSL is simply a hash over the whole certificate (in its DER binary encoding, not the ASCII PEM one!), not only the TBS part, as I thought.
For anyone who cares about calculating certificate's digest, it is done in a different way: the hash is calculated over the DER-encoded (again, not the PEM string) TBS part only, including its ASN.1 header (the ID 0x30 == ASN1_SEQUENCE | ASN1_CONSTRUCTED and the length field). Please note that the certificate's ASN.1 header is not taken into account.
指纹类似于 .net 中的术语“指纹”。下面的代码片段应该可以帮助您计算指纹:
The finger print is similar to term "Thumbprint" in .net. Below code snippet should help you to compute finger print :
