X.509 Parser

A X.509 v3 (RFC5280) parser, implemented with the nom parser combinator framework.

It is written in pure Rust, fast, and makes extensive use of zero-copy. A lot of care is taken to ensure security and safety of this crate, including design (recursion limit, defensive programming), tests, and fuzzing. It also aims to be panic-free.

The code is available on Github and is part of the Rusticata project.

Certificates are usually encoded in two main formats: PEM (usually the most common format) or DER. A PEM-encoded certificate is a container, storing a DER object. See the pem module for more documentation.

To decode a DER-encoded certificate, the main parsing method is [X509Certificate::from_der] ( part of the FromDer trait ), which builds a X509Certificate object.

An alternative method is to use X509CertificateParser, which allows specifying parsing options (for example, not automatically parsing option contents).

The returned objects for parsers follow the definitions of the RFC. This means that accessing fields is done by accessing struct members recursively. Some helper functions are provided, for example X509Certificate::issuer() returns the same as accessing <object>.tbs_certificate.issuer.

For PEM-encoded certificates, use the pem module.

Examples

Parsing a certificate in DER format:

use x509_parser::prelude::*;

static IGCA_DER: &[u8] = include_bytes!("../assets/IGC_A.der");

let res = X509Certificate::from_der(IGCA_DER);
match res {
    Ok((rem, cert)) => {
        assert!(rem.is_empty());
        //
        assert_eq!(cert.version(), X509Version::V3);
    },
    _ => panic!("x509 parsing failed: {:?}", res),
}

To parse a CRL and print information about revoked certificates:

#
#
let res = CertificateRevocationList::from_der(DER);
match res {
    Ok((_rem, crl)) => {
        for revoked in crl.iter_revoked_certificates() {
            println!("Revoked certificate serial: {}", revoked.raw_serial_as_string());
            println!("  Reason: {}", revoked.reason_code().unwrap_or_default().1);
        }
    },
    _ => panic!("CRL parsing failed: {:?}", res),
}

Features

• The verify feature adds support for (cryptographic) signature verification, based on ring. It adds the X509Certificate::verify_signature() to X509Certificate.

/// Cryptographic signature verification: returns true if certificate was signed by issuer
#[cfg(feature = "verify")]
pub fn check_signature(cert: &X509Certificate<'_>, issuer: &X509Certificate<'_>) -> bool {
    let issuer_public_key = issuer.public_key();
    cert
        .verify_signature(Some(issuer_public_key))
        .is_ok()
}

• The validate features add methods to run more validation functions on the certificate structure and values using the Validate trait. It does not validate any cryptographic parameter (see verify above).

Rust version requirements

x509-parser requires Rustc version 1.46 or greater, based on nom 7 dependencies and for proc-macro attributes support.
