Revocation cheat-sheet

Revoke a certificate:

List of valid revocation reasons:

  • unspecified

  • keyCompromise

  • CACompromise

  • affiliationChanged

  • superseded

  • cessationOfOperation

  • certificateHold

    openssl ca -config etc/signing-ca.conf -revoke certs/fred.sha256.2048.crt -crl_reason unspecified

Create CRL:

openssl ca -gencrl -config etc/signing-ca.conf -out crl/signing-ca.crl

Check certificate without crl:

openssl verify -verbose -CAfile ca/chained-ca.sha256.2048.crt certs/fred.sha256.2048.crt

Check certificate with crl:

openssl verify -crl_check_all -verbose -CAfile ca/chained-ca.sha256.2048.crt \
         -CRLfile crl/signing-ca.crl  certs/fred.sha256.2048.crt
