Get a .pfx/.p12 Safe Bag Attribute

See more PFX/P12 Examples

Demonstrates how to get the value of a private key or certificate safe bag attribute. Safe bag attributes are associated with a key or certificate. They are attributes stored in the .p12/.pfx alongside a key or certificate. Java

    //  In the above JSON, we can see the .pfx contains one private key (a pkcs8ShroudedKeyBag) and two certificates (each in a certBag).
    //  The certificates in a .pfx/.p12 are typicaly a single certificate with associated private key, along with the other certificates
    //  in the chain of authentication.

    //  We can see that the private key has 3 safebag attributes: localKeyId, keyContainerName, and msStorageProvider.
    //  The certificate associated with the private key contains one safebag attribute: localKeyId.
    //  Notice the localKeyId is the same.  The localKeyId helps associate the private key that corresponds to the given certificate.

    //  Let's demonstrate the GetSafeBagAttr method:

    //  Get each of the private key safebag attributes:
    boolean getPrivateKeyAttr = true;
    int privateKeyIdx = 0;
    System.out.println("---- private key safebag attributes ----");
    System.out.println(pfx.getSafeBagAttr(getPrivateKeyAttr,privateKeyIdx,"localKeyId"));
    System.out.println(pfx.getSafeBagAttr(getPrivateKeyAttr,privateKeyIdx,"keyContainerName"));
    System.out.println(pfx.getSafeBagAttr(getPrivateKeyAttr,privateKeyIdx,"storageProvider"));

    //  Get the localKeyId attribute for the 1st certificate.
    getPrivateKeyAttr = false;
    System.out.println("---- cert safebag attributes ----");
    System.out.println(pfx.getSafeBagAttr(getPrivateKeyAttr,0,"localKeyId"));
  }
