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: under Windows >= 7,2008 MS decided not to provide
a full certificate store by default/via update as all other OS do.
It's being populated with time -- supposed you use e.g. IE while browsing.
This store was destilled from three different windows installations via
certmgr.msc and is an export of "Trusted Root Certification Authorities"
--> "Certificates". Third Party Root Certificates were for now deliberately omitted. Feedback is welcome, see #317. - Apple.pem : it comes from Apple OS X keychain app Open Keychain Access. In the Finder window, under Favorites, click Applications, click Utilities and then double-click Keychain Access. In the Keychain Access window, under Keychains, click System and then under Category, click All Items. Select now all CA certificate then 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 storesthough while scanning internal
networks. 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.
