In pyOpenSSL i haven't been able to find a way to encrypt a RSA private key with AES 256 just yet, been looking all over the place for this but cant seem to find a way.
Before i used OpenSSL to get the key and ca/cl certificates but now im opting to make an application where i need to handle the pfx-file in certain ways.
In OpenSSL i used to do the following:
openssl pkcs12 -in file.pfx -nocerts -out key.key
after that i did:
openssl rsa -aes256 -key.key -out encrypted.key
is there anything similar in pyOpenSSL using crypto?
I believe I solved this. But for anyone wondering, this is what I did:
import os
import shutil
from Crypto.PublicKey import RSA
def encrypt(old_key, new_key, passphrase):
key = RSA.importKey(open(old_key, 'rb').read())
with open(new_key, 'wb') as f:
pem_key = key.export_key(format='PEM', passphrase=passphrase, pkcs=8, protection='PBKDF2WithHMAC-SHA1AndAES256-CBC')
f.write(pem_key)
f.close()
if os.path.exists(old_key):
os.remove(old_key)
encryptAES('path_to_old_key', 'path_to_new:key.key', 'supersecretpassword')
One question still remaining is if there's anyway to output the encryption info done in python similar to OpenSSL?
If you run openssl rsa -aes256 -in old.key -out new.key
The key will return attributes in the beginning like such:
-----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
Proc-Type: 4,ENCRYPTED
DEK-Info: AES-256-CBC
Key here...
-----END RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
However when I export the private key in Python I just get:
-----BEGIN ENCRYPTED PRIVATE KEY-----
Key here...
-----END ENCRYPTED PRIVATE KEY-----
Is there anyway to display these attributes with pycryptodome
?
