(PHP ActiveX) Duplicate CSR Created by OpenSSL with Config.cnf

See more CSR Examples

Demonstrates how to duplicate a CSR created by the following commands:

# Generate Private Key
openssl ecparam -name secp256k1 -genkey -noout -out PrivateKey.pem

#Generate CSR
openssl req -new -sha256 -key PrivateKey.pem -extensions v3_req -config Config.cnf -out CSR.csr

// This example assumes the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
// See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

// This example duplicates the CSR created by OpenSSL with the following config file:

// oid_section = OIDs
// [ OIDs ]
// certificateTemplateName= 1.3.6.1.4.1.311.20.2
// 
// [ req ]
// default_bits 	= 2048
// emailAddress 	= it@example.sa
// req_extensions	= v3_req
// x509_extensions 	= v3_ca
// prompt = no
// default_md = sha256
// req_extensions = req_ext
// distinguished_name = dn
// 
// [ v3_req ]
// basicConstraints = CA:FALSE
// keyUsage = digitalSignature, nonRepudiation, keyEncipherment
// 
// [req_ext]
// certificateTemplateName = ASN1:PRINTABLESTRING:ZATCA-Code-Signing
// subjectAltName = dirName:alt_names
// 
// [ dn ]
// CN =EXAMPLE-CORP  				# Common Name
// C=SA									# Country Code e.g SA
// OU=HEAD-OFFICE							# Organization Unit Name
// O=ASC									# Organization Name
// 
// [alt_names]
// SN=1-ASC|2-V01|3-1234567890				# EGS Serial Number 1-ABC|2-PQR|3-XYZ
// UID=312345678900003						# Organization Identifier (VAT Number)
// title=1100								# Invoice Type
// registeredAddress=Dammam  	 			# Address
// businessCategory=IT						# Business Category

// The OpenSSL commands we are duplicating:

// openssl ecparam -name secp256k1 -genkey -noout -out PrivateKey.pem
// openssl req -new -sha256 -key PrivateKey.pem -extensions v3_req -config Config.cnf -out CSR.csr

// The 1st step is to actually use OpenSSL to generate a sample CSR.csr that we wish to duplicate.
// With the sample CSR.csr, we get the ExtensionRequest as XML.  
// For example:

// For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use new COM('Chilkat_9_5_0.Chilkat.StringBuilder')
$sbCsr = new COM("Chilkat.StringBuilder");
$success = $sbCsr->LoadFile('qa_data/csr/openssl_cnf/CSR.csr','utf-8');
if ($success == 0) {
    print 'Failed to load CSR.csr' . "\n";
    exit;
}

// For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use new COM('Chilkat_9_5_0.Chilkat.Csr')
$csr0 = new COM("Chilkat.Csr");
$success = $csr0->LoadCsrPem($sbCsr->getAsString());
if ($success == 0) {
    print $csr0->LastErrorText . "\n";
    exit;
}

// For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use new COM('Chilkat_9_5_0.Chilkat.Xml')
$xml0 = new COM("Chilkat.Xml");
$success = $csr0->GetExtensionRequest($xml0);
if ($success == 0) {
    print $csr0->LastErrorText . "\n";
    exit;
}

// Let's examine the extension request..
print $xml0->getXml() . "\n";
