RustCrypto: PKCS#10 (Certification Requests)

Pure Rust implementation of Public-Key Cryptography Standards (PKCS) #10: Certification Request Syntax Specification (RFC 2986).

Documentation

🚨 DEPRECATED! 🚨

The pkcs10 is deprecated and will not receive further updates.

The relevant functionality has been merged into x509_cert::request.

Please switch to the x509-cert crate instead.

About PKCS#10

PKCS#10 is a format for certification requests (sometimes called certificate signing requests). This format usually contains a public key.

You can identify a PKCS#10 request encoded as PEM (i.e. text) by the following:

-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE REQUEST-----

PKCS#10 certification requests can also be serialized in an ASN.1-based binary format. The PEM text encoding is a Base64 representation of this format.

Supported Algorithms

This crate is implemented in an algorithm-agnostic manner with the goal of enabling PKCS#10 support for any algorithm.

That said, it has been tested for interoperability against keys generated by OpenSSL for the following algorithms:

• RSA (id-rsaEncryption)

Please open an issue if you encounter trouble using it with a particular algorithm, including the ones listed above or other algorithms.

Minimum Supported Rust Version

This crate requires Rust 1.56 at a minimum.

We may change the MSRV in the future, but it will be accompanied by a minor version bump.
