#22809 [Opn->Fbk]: OpenSSL fails to compute internal private key from string but works on file

ID: 22809 Updated by: sniper@php.net Reported By: php-bugs at liwing dot de -Status: Open +Status: Feedback Bug Type: OpenSSL related Operating System: FreeBSD (4.8RC and 5.0) PHP Version: 4.3.1 New Comment: The openssl tests do not fail for me at least, but I tested this on Linux. (using openSSL 0.9.7a) So please give it a go on FreeBSD, it should work now. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-03-20 18:04:57] php-bugs at liwing dot de The patch looks good. I'll try to build in in next few days and reply whether it works as expected or not. Did the tests run fine? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-03-20 17:53:51] sniper@php.net Please try using this CVS snapshot: http://snaps.php.net/php4-STABLE-latest.tar.gz For Windows: http://snaps.php.net/win32/php4-win32-STABLE-latest.zip ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-03-20 17:52:27] php-bugs at liwing dot de In PHP 4.3.1 the use of OpenSSL fails when the private key comes from a string instead of a file. The test case for openssl fails, too. To reproduce the bug, simply run the "make test" on a current build FreeBSD system. I don't know about others, but I assume either an incompatibility with OpenSSL 0.9.7a (because the d2i_PrivateKey method used by the php wrapper seems to have a problem). Using the OpenSSL commandline tools I can use my private/public keys to sign and verify files. Because I don't know much about OpenSSL I cannot verify the reason of the failure. The occurance seems somewhere around line 1747 in file ext/openssl/openssl.c If the script in the test case isn't enough (what it should), I can attach an own one.
