After I posted the question I found the earlier discussion from this year: http://www.mail-archive.com/openssl-users@openssl.org/msg66377.html Following the thread back at least indicates that I'm not the first one who made the incorrect assumption that providing an intermediate certificate as

Hi, One more observation was made here in another test case. *Configuration:* One old root CA certificate oldca.pem with subject name say, C=IN One new root CA certificate newca.pem with same subject name. One EE certificate, ee.pem issued by new root CA. *Test case 1:* Using CAFile option in

Hi, In your test case which fields actually differ between the old root CA certificate and the new root CA certificate? P.S. Please do not use those 3 letter abbreviations of certificate field names, very few people know those abbreviations. For the benefit of other readers: I think Ashok

Only the private and public keys are different.. Rest of the fields are same.. Basically I am simulating the trust anchor update related scenarios.. And yes Jacob, thanks for indicating, I'll make sure I don't use such abbreviations from here on.. Ashok On Sep 24, 2012 11:25 PM, Jakob Bohm

Does that work with any other serious X.509 validation toolkit? To make this work (assuming the old root CA cert has not yet expired), the validation code will need to actually verify the End Entity certificate against both public keys, which effectively reduces the algorithm security by

I remember seeing somewhere that OpenSSL supports Intel AES instruction set. If so, which release is that and what flag is needed to enable it. Does the 'no-asm' flag in 'Configure' disable the use of these instructions? Alex

Thanks Jacob, but in the three scenarios you mentioned, the first one *does not* seem to be supported by openssl 1.0.0*. I think that was the subject of this email thread in the beginning. 1. Changing expiry or other attributes while keeping the key. Here the CA issues a new self-signed
