Thanks for the reply! The patch to the OpenSSL.pm module is very
usefull, because now I've made a workaround for my CMS interface:

my @passwords = ("superdifficultpassword");
                
$ca_token->{PASSWD} = join ( "", @passwords );
$ca_token->{OPENSSL}->{PASSWD} = $ca_token->{PASSWD};
$ca_token->{ONLINE} = 1;

 but this is obviously a very ugly workaround :-)

 I'll use your version of OpenSSL.pm!

 I can put this password in the configuration file of my new CMS
"interface" (when I finish this I intend to share the code with you, I
think it can be usefull to all). But another question, can I put an
hash of the password in config and pass this hash to the token login ?
This is a CA password, it's not so secure to put it in clear :-P

 Great, I'll make some more questions when I configure the HSM in the
system. I think there is only some adjustments to the code in order to
make automatic the token login on the HSM instead of using the
password.
