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.

Further needed files

• tls_data.txt contains lists of cipher suites and private keys for sockets-based tests

• cipher-mapping.txt contains information about all of the cipher suites defined for SSL/TLS

• ca_hashes.txt is used for HPKP test in order to have a fast comparison with known CAs

• common-primes.txt is used for LOGJAM

• client-simulation.txt as the name indicates it's the data for the client simulation. Use ~/utils/update_client_sim_data.pl for an update. Note: This list has been manually edited to sort it and weed it out.
