Req #61204 [Com]: Add elliptic curve support for OpenSSL

Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=61204&edit=1 ID: 61204 Comment by: ozgurh at gmail dot com Reported by: manuel at mausz dot at Summary: Add elliptic curve support for OpenSSL Status: Closed Type: Feature/Change Request Package: OpenSSL related PHP Version: trunk-SVN-2012-02-28 (SVN) Assigned To: bukka Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: Is it possible to add this feature to PHP 7.0. Probably it will take some time to release stable version of PHP 7.1. We need this feature to send web push notification via PHP. There are some altenative libraries but they do it so slow. (around 1 second per encryption) and It's take too much time if we try to send mass push notification messages. Thanks in advance, Ozgur.

This should be done years ago. How can I help? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2014-05-26 04:14:16] daniel at morante dot net Has this been added? I see this is over 2 years old but I am getting "Unsupported private key type" with the following code: $config = array( "private_key_type" => OPENSSL_KEYTYPE_EC, ); $res = openssl_pkey_new($config); ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2012-02-28 16:58:26] manuel at mausz dot at Description: ------------ It's not possible to generate private keys using elliptic curve cryptography. Expected result: ---------------- Attached is a patch for svn trunk to implement basic support for ec. In order to determine which specific curve to use I've expanded the configuration array with a new key "ec_group_name". There's no openssl.conf equivalent (or at least I don't know). If you prefer an other name or method to pass the curve name to the methods just drop me a note. Additional I've added a new method openssl_get_curve_names() which gets a list of all available elliptic curves (their short names only). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=61204&edit=1
