| =head1 DESCRIPTION |
| |
| This command handles data in CMS format such as S/MIME v3.1 email messages. |
| It can encrypt, decrypt, sign, verify, compress, uncompress, and print messages. |
| |
| =head1 OPTIONS |
| |
| There are a number of operation options that set the type of operation to be |
| performed: encrypt, decrypt, sign, verify, resign, sign_receipt, verify_receipt, |
| digest_create, digest_verify, compress, uncompress, |
| EncryptedData_encrypt, EncryptedData_decrypt, data_create, data_out, or cmsout. |
| The relevance of the other options depends on the operation type |
| and their meaning may vary according to it. |

| |
| =head2 General options |
| |
| =over 4 |
| |
| =item B<-in> I<filename> |
| |
| The input message to be encrypted or signed or the message to be decrypted |
| or verified. |
| |
| =item B<-out> I<filename> |
| |
| The message text that has been decrypted or verified or the output MIME |
| format message that has been signed or verified. |

| =head2 Operation options |
| |
| =over 4 |
| |
| =item B<-encrypt> |
| |
| Encrypt data for the given recipient certificates. Input file is the message |
| to be encrypted. The output file is the encrypted data in MIME format. The |
| actual CMS type is B<EnvelopedData>. |
| |
| Note that no revocation check is done for the recipient cert, so if that |
| key has been compromised, others may be able to decrypt the text. |
| |
| =item B<-decrypt> |
| |
| Decrypt data using the supplied certificate and private key. Expects |
| encrypted datain MIME format for the input file. The decrypted data |
| is written to the output file. |
| |
| =item B<-sign> |
| |
| Sign data using the supplied certificate and private key. Input file is |
| the message to be signed. The signed data in MIME format is written |
| to the output file. |
| |
| =item B<-verify> |
| |
| Verify signed data. Expects a signed data on input and outputs |
| the signed data. Both clear text and opaque signing is supported. |
| |
| =item B<-resign> |
| |
| Resign a message: take an existing message and one or more new signers. |
| |
| =item B<-sign_receipt> |
| |
| Generate and output a signed receipt for the supplied message. The input |
| message B<must> contain a signed receipt request. Functionality is otherwise |
| similar to the B<-sign> operation. |
| |
| =item B<-verify_receipt> I<receipt> |
| |
| Verify a signed receipt in filename B<receipt>. The input message B<must> |
| contain the original receipt request. Functionality is otherwise similar |
| to the B<-verify> operation. |
| |
| =item B<-digest_create> |
| |
| Create a CMS B<DigestedData> type. |
| |
| =item B<-digest_verify> |
| |
| Verify a CMS B<DigestedData> type and output the content. |
| |
| =item B<-compress> |
| |
| Create a CMS B<CompressedData> type. OpenSSL must be compiled with B<zlib> |
| support for this option to work, otherwise it will output an error. |
| |
| =item B<-uncompress> |
| |
| Uncompress a CMS B<CompressedData> type and output the content. OpenSSL must be |
| compiled with B<zlib> support for this option to work, otherwise it will |
| output an error. |
| |
| =item B<-EncryptedData_encrypt> |
| |
| Encrypt content using supplied symmetric key and algorithm using a CMS |
| B<EncryptedData> type and output the content. |
| |
| =item B<-EncryptedData_decrypt> |
| |
| Decrypt content using supplied symmetric key and algorithm using a CMS |
| B<EncryptedData> type and output the content. |
| |
| =item B<-data_create> |
| |
| Create a CMS B<Data> type. |
| |
| =item B<-data_out> |
| |
| B<Data> type and output the content. |
| |
| =item B<-cmsout> |
| |
| Takes an input message and writes out a PEM encoded CMS structure. |
| |
| =back |
| |
| =head2 File format options |
| |
| =over 4 |
| |
| =item B<-inform> B<DER>|B<PEM>|B<SMIME> |
| |
| The input format of the CMS structure (if one is being read); |
| the default is B<SMIME>. |
| See L<openssl-format-options(1)> for details. |
| |
| =item B<-outform> B<DER>|B<PEM>|B<SMIME> |
| |
| The output format of the CMS structure (if one is being written); |
| the default is B<SMIME>. |
| See L<openssl-format-options(1)> for details. |
| |
| =item B<-rctform> B<DER>|B<PEM>|B<SMIME> |
| |
| The signed receipt format for use with the B<-receipt_verify>; the default |
| is B<SMIME>. |
| See L<openssl-format-options(1)> for details. |
| |
| =item B<-stream>, B<-indef> |
| |
| The B<-stream> and B<-indef> options are equivalent and enable streaming I/O |
| for encoding operations. This permits single pass processing of data without |
| the need to hold the entire contents in memory, potentially supporting very |
| large files. Streaming is automatically set for S/MIME signing with detached |
| data if the output format is B<SMIME> it is currently off by default for all |
| other operations. |
| |
| =item B<-noindef> |
| |
| Disable streaming I/O where it would produce and indefinite length constructed |
| encoding. This option currently has no effect. In future streaming will be |
| enabled by default on all relevant operations and this option will disable it. |
| |
| =item B<-binary> |
| |
| Normally the input message is converted to "canonical" format which is |
| effectively using CR and LF as end of line: as required by the S/MIME |
| specification. When this option is present no translation occurs. This |
| is useful when handling binary data which may not be in MIME format. |
| |
| =item B<-crlfeol> |
| |
| Normally the output file uses a single B<LF> as end of line. When this |
| option is present B<CRLF> is used instead. |
| |
| =item B<-asciicrlf> |
| |
| When signing use ASCII CRLF format canonicalisation. This strips trailing |
| whitespace from all lines, deletes trailing blank lines at EOF and sets |
| the encapsulated content type. This option is normally used with detached |
| content and an output signature format of DER. This option is not normally |
| needed when verifying as it is enabled automatically if the encapsulated |
| content format is detected. |
| |
| =back |
| |
| =head2 Keys and password options |
| |
| =over 4 |
| |
| =item B<-pwri_password> I<password> |
| |
| Specify password for recipient. |
| |
| =item B<-secretkey> I<key> |
| |
| Specify symmetric key to use. The key must be supplied in hex format and be |
| consistent with the algorithm used. Supported by the B<-EncryptedData_encrypt> |
| B<-EncryptedData_decrypt>, B<-encrypt> and B<-decrypt> options. When used |
| with B<-encrypt> or B<-decrypt> the supplied key is used to wrap or unwrap the |
| content encryption key using an AES key in the B<KEKRecipientInfo> type. |
| |
| =item B<-secretkeyid> I<id> |
| |
| The key identifier for the supplied symmetric key for B<KEKRecipientInfo> type. |
| This option B<must> be present if the B<-secretkey> option is used with |
| B<-encrypt>. With B<-decrypt> operations the I<id> is used to locate the |
| relevant key if it is not supplied then an attempt is used to decrypt any |
| B<KEKRecipientInfo> structures. |
| |
| =item B<-inkey> I<filename>|I<uri> |
| |
| The private key to use when signing or decrypting. This must match the |
| corresponding certificate. If this option is not specified then the |
| private key must be included in the certificate file specified with |
| the B<-recip> or B<-signer> file. When signing this option can be used |
| multiple times to specify successive keys. |
| |
| =item B<-passin> I<arg> |
| |
| The private key password source. For more information about the format of B<arg> |
| see L<openssl-passphrase-options(1)>. |
| |
| =item B<-keyopt> I<name>:I<parameter> |
| |
| For signing and encryption this option can be used multiple times to |
| set customised parameters for the preceding key or certificate. It can |
| currently be used to set RSA-PSS for signing, RSA-OAEP for encryption |
| or to modify default parameters for ECDH. |
| |
| =item B<-keyform> B<DER>|B<PEM>|B<P12>|B<ENGINE> |
| |
| The format of the private key file; unspecified by default. |
| See L<openssl-format-options(1)> for details. |

| =head2 Encryption and decryption options |
| |
| =over 4 |
| |
| =item B<-originator> I<file> |
| |
| A certificate of the originator of the encrypted message. Necessary for |
| decryption when Key Agreement is in use for a shared key. |
| |
| =item B<-recip> I<file> |
| |
| When decrypting a message this specifies the certificate of the recipient. |
| The certificate must match one of the recipients of the message. |
| |
| When encrypting a message this option may be used multiple times to specify |
| each recipient. This form B<must> be used if customised parameters are |
| required (for example to specify RSA-OAEP). |
| |
| Only certificates carrying RSA, Diffie-Hellman or EC keys are supported by this |
| option. |
| |
| =item I<recipient-cert> ... |
| |
| This is an alternative to using the B<-recip> option when encrypting a message. |
| One or more certificate filennames may be given. |
| |
| =item B<-I<cipher>> |
| |
| The encryption algorithm to use. For example triple DES (168 bits) - B<-des3> |
| or 256 bit AES - B<-aes256>. Any standard algorithm name (as used by the |
| EVP_get_cipherbyname() function) can also be used preceded by a dash, for |
| example B<-aes-128-cbc>. See L<openssl-enc(1)> for a list of ciphers |
| supported by your version of OpenSSL. |
| |
| Currently the AES variants with GCM mode are the only supported AEAD |
| algorithms. |
| |
| If not specified triple DES is used. Only used with B<-encrypt> and |
| B<-EncryptedData_create> commands. |
| |
| =item B<-wrap> I<cipher> |
| |
| Cipher algorithm to use for key wrap when encrypting the message using Key |
| Agreement for key transport. The algorithm specified should be suitable for key |
| wrap. |
| |
| =item B<-aes128-wrap>, B<-aes192-wrap>, B<-aes256-wrap>, B<-des3-wrap> |
| |
| Use AES128, AES192, AES256, or 3DES-EDE, respectively, to wrap key. |
| Depending on the OpenSSL build options used, B<-des3-wrap> may not be supported. |
| |
| =item B<-debug_decrypt> |
| |
| This option sets the B<CMS_DEBUG_DECRYPT> flag. This option should be used |
| with caution: see the notes section below. |
| |
| =back |
| |
| =head2 Signing options |
| |
| =over 4 |
| |
| =item B<-md> I<digest> |
| |
| Digest algorithm to use when signing or resigning. If not present then the |
| default digest algorithm for the signing key will be used (usually SHA1). |
| |
| =item B<-signer> I<file> |
| |
| A signing certificate. When signing or resigning a message, this option can be |
| used multiple times if more than one signer is required. |
| |
| =item B<-certfile> I<file> |
| |
| Allows additional certificates to be specified. When signing these will |
| be included with the message. When verifying these will be searched for |
| the signers certificates. |
| The input can be in PEM, DER, or PKCS#12 format. |
| |
| =item B<-cades> |
| |
| When used with B<-sign>, |
| add an ESS signingCertificate or ESS signingCertificateV2 signed-attribute |
| to the SignerInfo, in order to make the signature comply with the requirements |
| for a CAdES Basic Electronic Signature (CAdES-BES). |
| |
| =item B<-nodetach> |
| |
| When signing a message use opaque signing: this form is more resistant |
| to translation by mail relays but it cannot be read by mail agents that |
| do not support S/MIME. Without this option cleartext signing with |
| the MIME type multipart/signed is used. |
| |
| =item B<-nocerts> |
| |
| When signing a message the signer's certificate is normally included |
| with this option it is excluded. This will reduce the size of the |
| signed message but the verifier must have a copy of the signers certificate |
| available locally (passed using the B<-certfile> option for example). |
| |
| =item B<-noattr> |
| |
| Normally when a message is signed a set of attributes are included which |
| include the signing time and supported symmetric algorithms. With this |
| option they are not included. |
| |
| =item B<-nosmimecap> |
| |
| Exclude the list of supported algorithms from signed attributes, other options |
| such as signing time and content type are still included. |
| |
| =item B<-receipt_request_all>, B<-receipt_request_first> |
| |
| For B<-sign> option include a signed receipt request. Indicate requests should |
| be provided by all recipient or first tier recipients (those mailed directly |
| and not from a mailing list). Ignored it B<-receipt_request_from> is included. |
| |
| =item B<-receipt_request_from> I<emailaddress> |
| |
| For B<-sign> option include a signed receipt request. Add an explicit email |
| address where receipts should be supplied. |
| |
| =item B<-receipt_request_to> I<emailaddress> |
| |
| Add an explicit email address where signed receipts should be sent to. This |
| option B<must> but supplied if a signed receipt is requested. |
| |
| =back |
| |
| =head2 Verification options |
| |
| =over 4 |
| |
| =item B<-signer> I<file> |
| |
| If a message has been verified successfully then the signers certificate(s) |
| will be written to this file if the verification was successful. |
| |
| =item B<-content> I<filename> |
| |
| This specifies a file containing the detached content for operations taking |
| S/MIME input, such as the B<-verify> command. This is only usable if the CMS |
| structure is using the detached signature form where the content is |
| not included. This option will override any content if the input format |
| is S/MIME and it uses the multipart/signed MIME content type. |
| |
| =item B<-no_content_verify> |
| |
| Do not verify signed content signatures. |
| |
| =item B<-no_attr_verify> |
| |
| Do not verify signed attribute signatures. |
| |
| =item B<-nosigs> |
| |
| Don't verify message signature. |
| |
| =item B<-noverify> |
| |
| Do not verify the signers certificate of a signed message. |
| |
| =item B<-nointern> |
| |
| When verifying a message normally certificates (if any) included in |
| the message are searched for the signing certificate. With this option |
| only the certificates specified in the B<-certfile> option are used. |
| The supplied certificates can still be used as untrusted CAs however. |
| |
| =item B<-cades> |
| |
| When used with B<-verify>, require and check signer certificate digest. |
| See the NOTES section for more details. |
| |
| =item B<-verify_retcode> |

| |
| =over 4 |
| |
| =item B<-keyid> |
| |
| Use subject key identifier to identify certificates instead of issuer name and |
| serial number. The supplied certificate B<must> include a subject key |
| identifier extension. Supported by B<-sign> and B<-encrypt> options. |
| |
| =item B<-econtent_type> I<type> |
| |
| Set the encapsulated content type to I<type> if not supplied the B<Data> type |
| is used. The I<type> argument can be any valid OID name in either text or |
| numerical format. |
| |
| =item B<-text> |
| |
| This option adds plain text (text/plain) MIME headers to the supplied |
| message if encrypting or signing. If decrypting or verifying it strips |
| off text headers: if the decrypted or verified message is not of MIME |
| type text/plain then an error occurs. |
| |
| =item B<-certsout> I<file> |
| |
| Any certificates contained in the input message are written to I<file>. |
| |
| =item B<-to>, B<-from>, B<-subject> |
| |
| The relevant email headers. These are included outside the signed |
| portion of a message so they may be included manually. If signing |
| then many S/MIME mail clients check the signers certificate's email |
| address matches that specified in the From: address. |

| =head1 NOTES |
| |
| The MIME message must be sent without any blank lines between the |
| headers and the output. Some mail programs will automatically add |
| a blank line. Piping the mail directly to sendmail is one way to |
| achieve the correct format. |
| |
| The supplied message to be signed or encrypted must include the |
| necessary MIME headers or many S/MIME clients won't display it |
| properly (if at all). You can use the B<-text> option to automatically |
| add plain text headers. |
| |
| A "signed and encrypted" message is one where a signed message is |
| then encrypted. This can be produced by encrypting an already signed |
| message: see the examples section. |
| |
| This version of the program only allows one signer per message but it |
| will verify multiple signers on received messages. Some S/MIME clients |
| choke if a message contains multiple signers. It is possible to sign |
| messages "in parallel" by signing an already signed message. |
| |
| The options B<-encrypt> and B<-decrypt> reflect common usage in S/MIME |
| clients. Strictly speaking these process CMS enveloped data: CMS |
| encrypted data is used for other purposes. |
| |
| The B<-resign> option uses an existing message digest when adding a new |
| signer. This means that attributes must be present in at least one existing |
| signer using the same message digest or this operation will fail. |
| |
| The B<-stream> and B<-indef> options enable streaming I/O support. |
| As a result the encoding is BER using indefinite length constructed encoding |
| and no longer DER. Streaming is supported for the B<-encrypt> operation and the |
| B<-sign> operation if the content is not detached. |
| |
| Streaming is always used for the B<-sign> operation with detached data but |
| since the content is no longer part of the CMS structure the encoding |
| remains DER. |
| |
| If the B<-decrypt> option is used without a recipient certificate then an |
| attempt is made to locate the recipient by trying each potential recipient |
| in turn using the supplied private key. To thwart the MMA attack |
| (Bleichenbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 RSA padding) all recipients are |
| tried whether they succeed or not and if no recipients match the message |
| is "decrypted" using a random key which will typically output garbage. |
| The B<-debug_decrypt> option can be used to disable the MMA attack protection |
| and return an error if no recipient can be found: this option should be used |
| with caution. For a fuller description see L<CMS_decrypt(3)>). |

| =head1 COMPATIBILITY WITH PKCS#7 FORMAT |
| |
| L<openssl-smime(1)> can only process the older B<PKCS#7> format. |
| B<openssl cms> supports Cryptographic Message Syntax format. |
| Use of some features will result in messages which cannot be processed by |
| applications which only support the older format. These are detailed below. |
| |
| The use of the B<-keyid> option with B<-sign> or B<-encrypt>. |
| |
| The B<-outform> I<PEM> option uses different headers. |
| |
| The B<-compress> option. |
| |
| The B<-secretkey> option when used with B<-encrypt>. |
| |
| The use of PSS with B<-sign>. |
| |
| The use of OAEP or non-RSA keys with B<-encrypt>. |
| |
| Additionally the B<-EncryptedData_create> and B<-data_create> type cannot |
| be processed by the older L<openssl-smime(1)> command. |
| |
| =head1 EXAMPLES |
| |
| Create a cleartext signed message: |
| |
| openssl cms -sign -in message.txt -text -out mail.msg \ |
| -signer mycert.pem |
| |
| Create an opaque signed message |
| |
| openssl cms -sign -in message.txt -text -out mail.msg -nodetach \ |
| -signer mycert.pem |
| |
| Create a signed message, include some additional certificates and |
| read the private key from another file: |
| |
| openssl cms -sign -in in.txt -text -out mail.msg \ |
| -signer mycert.pem -inkey mykey.pem -certfile mycerts.pem |
| |
| Create a signed message with two signers, use key identifier: |
| |
| openssl cms -sign -in message.txt -text -out mail.msg \ |
| -signer mycert.pem -signer othercert.pem -keyid |
| |
| Send a signed message under Unix directly to sendmail, including headers: |
| |
| openssl cms -sign -in in.txt -text -signer mycert.pem \ |
| -from steve@openssl.org -to someone@somewhere \ |
| -subject "Signed message" | sendmail someone@somewhere |
| |
| Verify a message and extract the signer's certificate if successful: |
| |
| openssl cms -verify -in mail.msg -signer user.pem -out signedtext.txt |
| |
| Send encrypted mail using triple DES: |
| |
| openssl cms -encrypt -in in.txt -from steve@openssl.org \ |
| -to someone@somewhere -subject "Encrypted message" \ |
| -des3 user.pem -out mail.msg |
| |
| Sign and encrypt mail: |
| |
| openssl cms -sign -in ml.txt -signer my.pem -text \ |
| | openssl cms -encrypt -out mail.msg \ |
| -from steve@openssl.org -to someone@somewhere \ |
| -subject "Signed and Encrypted message" -des3 user.pem |
| |
| Note: the encryption command does not include the B<-text> option because the |
| message being encrypted already has MIME headers. |
| |
| Decrypt a message: |
| |
| openssl cms -decrypt -in mail.msg -recip mycert.pem -inkey key.pem |
| |
| The output from Netscape form signing is a PKCS#7 structure with the |
| detached signature format. You can use this program to verify the |
| signature by line wrapping the base64 encoded structure and surrounding |
| it with: |
| |
| -----BEGIN PKCS7----- |
| -----END PKCS7----- |
| |
| and using the command, |
| |
| openssl cms -verify -inform PEM -in signature.pem -content content.txt |
| |
| alternatively you can base64 decode the signature and use |
| |
| openssl cms -verify -inform DER -in signature.der -content content.txt |
| |
| Create an encrypted message using 128 bit Camellia: |
| |
| openssl cms -encrypt -in plain.txt -camellia128 -out mail.msg cert.pem |
| |
| Add a signer to an existing message: |
| |
| openssl cms -resign -in mail.msg -signer newsign.pem -out mail2.msg |
| |
| Sign a message using RSA-PSS: |
| |
| openssl cms -sign -in message.txt -text -out mail.msg \ |
| -signer mycert.pem -keyopt rsa_padding_mode:pss |
| |
| Create an encrypted message using RSA-OAEP: |
| |
| openssl cms -encrypt -in plain.txt -out mail.msg \ |
| -recip cert.pem -keyopt rsa_padding_mode:oaep |
| |
| Use SHA256 KDF with an ECDH certificate: |
| |
| openssl cms -encrypt -in plain.txt -out mail.msg \ |
| -recip ecdhcert.pem -keyopt ecdh_kdf_md:sha256 |
| |
| Print CMS signed binary data in human-readable form: |
| |
| openssl cms -in signed.cms -binary -inform DER -cmsout -print |
| |
| =head1 BUGS |
| |
| The MIME parser isn't very clever: it seems to handle most messages that I've |
| thrown at it but it may choke on others. |
| |
| The code currently will only write out the signer's certificate to a file: if |
| the signer has a separate encryption certificate this must be manually |
| extracted. There should be some heuristic that determines the correct |
| encryption certificate. |
| |
| Ideally a database should be maintained of a certificates for each email |
| address. |
| |
| The code doesn't currently take note of the permitted symmetric encryption |
| algorithms as supplied in the SMIMECapabilities signed attribute. this means the |
| user has to manually include the correct encryption algorithm. It should store |
| the list of permitted ciphers in a database and only use those. |
| |
| No revocation checking is done on the signer's certificate. |
