NAME
pkcs15-crypt - perform crypto operations using PKCS#15 smart cards SYNOPSIS
pkcs15-crypt [OPTIONS] DESCRIPTION
The pkcs15-crypt utility can be used from the command line to perform cryptographic operations such as computing digital signatures or decrypting data, using keys stored on a PKCS#15 compliant smart card. OPTIONS
--aid aid Specify the AID of the on-card PKCS#15 application to bind to. The aid must be in hexadecimal form. --decipher, -c Decrypt the contents of the file specified by the --input option. The result of the decryption operation is written to the file specified by the --output option. If this option is not given, the decrypted data is printed to standard output, displaying non-printable characters using their hex notation xNN (see also --raw). --input file, -i file Specifies the input file to use. --key id, -k id Selects the ID of the key to use. --output file, -o file Any output will be sent to the specified file. --pin pin, -p pin When the cryptographic operation requires a PIN to access the key, pkcs15-crypt will prompt the user for the PIN on the terminal. Using this option allows you to specify the PIN on the command line. Note that on most operating systems, the command line of a process can be displayed by any user using the ps(1) command. It is therefore a security risk to specify secret information such as PINs on the command line. If you specify '-' as PIN, it will be read from STDIN. --pkcs1 By default, pkcs15-crypt assumes that input data has been padded to the correct length (i.e. when computing an RSA signature using a 1024 bit key, the input must be padded to 128 bytes to match the modulus length). When giving the --pkcs1 option, however, pkcs15-crypt will perform the required padding using the algorithm outlined in the PKCS #1 standard version 1.5. --raw, -R Outputs raw 8 bit data. --reader N, -r N Selects the N-th smart card reader configured by the system. If unspecified, pkcs15-crypt will use the first reader found. --sha-1 This option tells pkcs15-crypt that the input file is the result of an SHA1 hash operation, rather than an MD5 hash. Again, the data must be in binary representation. --sign, -s Perform digital signature operation on the data read from a file specified using the --input option. By default, the contents of the file are assumed to be the result of an MD5 hash operation. Note that pkcs15-crypt expects the data in binary representation, not ASCII. The digital signature is stored, in binary representation, in the file specified by the --output option. If this option is not given, the signature is printed on standard output, displaying non-printable characters using their hex notation xNN (see also --raw). --verbose, -v Causes pkcs15-crypt to be more verbose. Specify this flag several times to enable debug output in the OpenSC library. SEE ALSO

NAME
pkcs11-tool - utility for managing and using PKCS #11 security tokens SYNOPSIS
pkcs11-tool [OPTIONS] DESCRIPTION
The pkcs11-tool utility is used to manage the data objects on smart cards and similar PKCS #11 security tokens. Users can list and read PINs, keys and certificates stored on the token. User PIN authentication is performed for those operations that require it. OPTIONS
--attr-from path Extract information from path (DER-encoded certificate file) and create the corresponding attributes when writing an object to the token. Example: the certificate subject name is used to create the CKA_SUBJECT attribute. --change-pin, -c Change the user PIN on the token --hash, -h Hash some data. --id id, -d id Specify the id of the object to operate on. --init-pin Initializes the user PIN. This option differs from --change-pin in that it sets the user PIN for the first time. Once set, the user PIN can be changed using --change-pin. --init-token Initialize a token: set the token label as well as a Security Officer PIN (the label must be specified using --label). --input-file path, -i path Specify the path to a file for input. --keypairgen, -k Generate a new key pair (public and private pair.) --label name, -a name Specify the name of the object to operate on (or the token label when --init-token is used). --list-mechanisms, -M Display a list of mechanisms supported by the token. --list-objects, -O Display a list of objects. --list-slots, -L Display a list of available slots on the token. --login, -l Authenticate to the token before performing other operations. This option is not needed if a PIN is provided on the command line. --mechanism mechanism, -m mechanism Use the specified mechanism for token operations. See -M for a list of mechanisms supported by your token. --module mod Specify a PKCS#11 module (or library) to load. --moz-cert path, -z path Test a Mozilla-like keypair generation and certificate request. Specify the path to the certificate file. --output-file path, -o path Specify the path to a file for output. --pin pin, -p pin Use the given pin for token operations. WARNING: Be careful using this option as other users may be able to read the command line from the system or if it is embedded in a script. This option will also set the --login option. --set-id id, -e id Set the CKA_ID of the object. --show-info, -I Display general token information. --sign, -s Sign some data. --slot id Specify the id of the slot to use. --slot-description description Specify the description of the slot to use. --slot-index index Specify the index of the slot to use. --token-label label Specify the label of token. Will be used the first slot, that has the inserted token with this label. --so-pin pin Use the given pin as the Security Officer PIN for some token operations (token initialization, user PIN initialization, etc). The same warning as --pin also applies here. --test, -t Perform some tests on the token. This option is most useful when used with either --login or --pin. --type type, -y type Specify the type of object to operate on. Examples are cert, privkey and pubkey. --verbose, -v Cause pkcs11-tool to be more verbose. NB! This does not affect OpenSC debugging level! To set OpenSC PKCS#11 module into debug mode, set the OPENSC_DEBUG environment variable to a non-zero number. --write-object id, -w path Write a key or certificate object to the token. path points to the DER-encoded certificate or key file. opensc 06/17/2014 PKCS11-TOOL(1)
