Certificate stores
The certificate stores were retrieved by
- Mozilla; see https://curl.haxx.se/docs/caextract.html
- Linux: Just copied from an up-to-date Linux machine
- Microsoft: For Windows >= 7/2008 Microsoft decided not to provide a full certificate store by default or via update as all other OS do. It's being populated with time -- supposed you use e.g. IE while browsing. Thus this file is smaller as the others. This store was destilled from three different windows installations via "certmgr.msc". It's a PKCS7 export of "Trusted Root Certification Authorities" and the Third Party Store. Feedback is welcome, see #317. It's still behind what MS publishes what should be included. Unfortunately there doesn't seem to be store to DL. Let me know if you have a pointer
- Apple: It comes from Apple OS X keychain app. Open Keychain Access. In the Finder window, under Favorites --> "Applications" --> "Utilities" --> "Keychain Access" (2 click). In that window --> "Keychains" --> "System" --> "Category" --> "All Items" Select all CA certificates, "File" --> "Export Items"
In this directory you can also save e.g. your company Root CA(s) in PEM
format, extension pem
. This has two catches momentarily: You will still
get a warning for the other certificate stores while scanning internal net-
works. Second catch: If you scan other hosts in the internet the check against
your Root CA will fail, too. This will be fixed in the future, see #230.
Mapping files
The file mapping-rfc.txt
uses the hexcode to map OpenSSL names
against the RFC/IANA names. curves.txt
is not being used yet, it
is supposed to map EC curve names properly.
