Eu criei um certificado de servidor auto-assinado usando o req -x509
comando OpenSSL e um arquivo CONF. O arquivo CONF é mostrado abaixo.
Quando examino o certificado usando o visualizador de certificados da Microsoft, ele exibe um aviso basicConstraints
(observe o pequeno ponto de exclamação):
O arquivo CONF usa o seguinte para criar o basicConstraints
:
basicConstraints = critical,CA:FALSE
De acordo com a RFC 5280 , o pathLen
deve apenas estar presente se CA:TRUE
e keyCertSign
estiver presente. O certificado do servidor não satisfaz nenhuma das condições (além disso, o teste com pathLen
resultou no mesmo aviso).
Por que o aviso da ferramenta de certificado da Microsoft está ativado basicConstraints
? O que há de errado com isso ou o que devo fazer para corrigi-lo?

# Self Signed with existing key (note the addition of -x509):
