Didn't find replacement for forge.pki.certificateToAsn1() and forge.asn1.toDer().

PKI terminologiy is a mess, to clarify:

  • DER format is the ASN1 structure encoded to bytes
  • BER is subset of DER, to simplify things consider them equivalent
  • PEM is the same DER piece encoded in base64 and surrounded by ----- BEGIN ... ----- and ----- END ... -----
  • PKCS 12 = PKCS#12 = P12 = PFX which is format to store key+cert bundles. It's really painful to work with because it lacks support everywhere but it's the only method to supply key+cert to StrongSwan client on Android/iOS

Did you test downloading StrongSwan profile (.sswan)? It should contain sensible JSON and the local.p12 attribute should contain P12 bundle that you should be able to parse with openssl pkcs12. For more info see https://wiki.strongswan.org/projects/strongswan/wiki/AndroidVPNClientProfiles

* What are `formatPEM.js` and `pkcs12chain`, where are they from, why aren't they installed via `npm` and are you sure `pki.js` or `asn1js` doesn't already provide this? Whenever you pull in external files please add them in separate commit and add into commit description where they came from and why they were added * `HASH_ALG`, `RSA_SIGN_ALG`, `EC_SIGN_ALG`, `KEY_SIZE` should all really go away and they should be pulled from `/api/bootstrap` instead. Looks like at least hash algorithm is missing, please add it under `certificate.authority` dict. There's more hardcoded stuff that should really be pulled from `/api/bootstrap` https://git.k-space.ee/pinecrypt/frontend/src/branch/master/static/js/certidude.js#L250 * All the [P12 stuff](https://git.k-space.ee/pinecrypt/frontend/src/branch/master/static/js/certidude.js#L236) should really happen inside `case 'p12':` * Please remove all messy inline conversions and use external function for converting between PEM/DER/whatever (base64 convert, line length limit and also ASCII armor text): https://git.k-space.ee/pinecrypt/frontend/src/branch/master/static/js/certidude.js#L135 https://git.k-space.ee/pinecrypt/frontend/src/branch/master/static/js/certidude.js#L231 https://git.k-space.ee/pinecrypt/frontend/src/branch/master/static/js/certidude.js#L274 https://git.k-space.ee/pinecrypt/frontend/src/branch/master/static/js/certidude.js#L324 etc. Create own functions if you're sure `pki.js` or `asn1js` doesn't include what you need * `crypto.generateKey` is the only long running function call, I don't see reason to complicate code with `sequence` here?

What are formatPEM.js and pkcs12chain, where are they from, why aren't they installed via npm and are you sure pki.js or asn1js doesn't already provide this? Whenever you pull in external files please add them in separate commit and add into commit description where they came from and why they were added

HASH_ALG, RSA_SIGN_ALG, EC_SIGN_ALG, KEY_SIZE should all really go away and they should be pulled from /api/bootstrap instead. Looks like at least hash algorithm is missing, please add it under certificate.authority dict. There's more hardcoded stuff that should really be pulled from /api/bootstrap https://git.k-space.ee/pinecrypt/frontend/src/branch/master/static/js/certidude.js#L250

  • Fixed

All the P12 stuff should really happen inside case 'p12':

  • Fixed

Please remove all messy inline conversions and use external function for converting between PEM/DER/whatever (base64 convert, line length limit and also ASCII armor text): https://git.k-space.ee/pinecrypt/frontend/src/branch/master/static/js/certidude.js#L135 https://git.k-space.ee/pinecrypt/frontend/src/branch/master/static/js/certidude.js#L231 https://git.k-space.ee/pinecrypt/frontend/src/branch/master/static/js/certidude.js#L274 https://git.k-space.ee/pinecrypt/frontend/src/branch/master/static/js/certidude.js#L324 etc. Create own functions if you're sure pki.js or asn1js doesn't include what you need

  • Fixed

crypto.generateKey is the only long running function call, I don't see reason to complicate code with sequence here?
