#29961 [NEW]: an openssl_csr_parse function would be handy

From: tjg at meitech dot com Operating system: FreeBSD 4.10 PHP version: 4.3.8 PHP Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Bug description: an openssl_csr_parse function would be handy Description: ------------ It would be a really good idea to implement an openssl_csr_parse function that could be used by someone implementing a PHP-based Certificate Authority to verify the information being presented by the requestor. For example, if you thought you were issuing an e-mail certificate for "blah@blah.com", it would be really handy to be able to verify that th CSR is asking for a certificate with that e-mail address in it. Currently, the only way I can figure to check to make sure that the CSR had the correct information in it is to actually do the signing process and then use openssl_x509_parse to make sure that the attributes are correct, and discard the certificate if they are not.
