Create CA and self-signed cert X.509 v3

gistfile1.md

1 Create CA

1.1 Create keys

openssl genrsa -out rootCA_key.key 2048. 
	-des3 algorithm to encrypt the key and will require you to enter a password in order for the key file to be created.
1.2 Create Root CA cert with constraint CA = true. 
openssl req -x509 -new -nodes -key rootCA_key.key -sha256  -days 1024  -out rootCA_crt.pem \ 
    -extensions v3_ca -reqexts v3_req -config /usr/local/etc/openssl/openssl.cnf

2 Create SSL cert

2.1 Create file named v3.ext

authorityKeyIdentifier=keyid,issuer
basicConstraints=CA:FALSE
keyUsage = digitalSignature, nonRepudiation, keyEncipherment, dataEncipherment
subjectAltName = @alt_names
[alt_names]
DNS.1 = domain1.com <--- should be same as subject name
DNS.2 = domain2.dev
IP.3 = X.X.X.X

2.2 Create CSR openssl req -new -nodes -out server_csr.csr -newkey rsa:2048 -keyout server_key.key

2.3 Issue crt with Root CA openssl x509 -req -in server_csr.csr -CA rootCA_crt.pem -CAkey rootCA_key.key -CAcreateserial -out server_crt.crt -days 500 -sha256 -extfile v3.ext

MISC:

1. pem to crt openssl x509 -outform der -in rootCA_crt.pem -out rootCA_crt.crt
2. key to pem openssl rsa -in server.key -text > private.pem
3. der to crt openssl x509 -in burp_cacert.der -inform DER -out burp_mycert.crt
