  64. OSSL_STORE\-winstore \- OpenSSL built in OSSL_STORE for Windows
  65. .SH DESCRIPTION
  66. .IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
  67. The OSSL_STORE implementation for Windows provides access to Windows' system
  68. \&\f(CW\*(C`ROOT\*(C'\fR certificate store through URIs, using the URI scheme
  69. \&\f(CW\*(C`org.openssl.winstore\*(C'\fR.
  70. .SS "Supported URIs"
  71. .IX Subsection "Supported URIs"
  72. There is only one supported URI:
  73. .PP
  74. .Vb 1
  75. \& org.openssl.winstore:
  76. .Ve
  77. .PP
  78. No authority (host, etc), no path, no query, no fragment.
  79. .SS "Supported OSSL_STORE_SEARCH operations"
  80. .IX Subsection "Supported OSSL_STORE_SEARCH operations"
  81. .IP \fBOSSL_STORE_SEARCH_by_name\fR\|(3) 4
  82. .IX Item "OSSL_STORE_SEARCH_by_name"
  83. As a matter of fact, this must be used. It is not possible to enumerate all
  84. available certificates in the store.
  85. .SS "Windows certificate store features"
  86. .IX Subsection "Windows certificate store features"
  87. Apart from diverse constraints present in the certificates themselves, the
  88. Windows certificate store also has the ability to associate additional
  89. constraining properties alongside a certificate in the store. This includes
  90. both documented and undocumented capabilities:
  91. .IP \(bu 4
  92. The documented capability to override EKU
  93. .IP \(bu 4
  94. The undocumented capability to add name constraints
  95. .IP \(bu 4
  96. The undocumented capability to override the certificate expiry date
  97. .PP
  98. \&\fISuch constraints are not checked by this OSSL_STORE implementation, and
  99. thereby not honoured\fR.
  100. .PP
  101. However, once extracted with \fBOSSL_STORE_load\fR\|(3), certificates that have
  102. constraints in their X.509 extensions will go through the usual constraint
  103. checks when used by OpenSSL, and are thereby honoured.

  105. .IX Header "SEE ALSO"

  107. .SH HISTORY
  108. .IX Header "HISTORY"
  109. The winstore (\f(CW\*(C`org.openssl.winstore\*(C'\fR) implementation was added in OpenSSL
  110. 3.2.0.
  111. .SH NOTES
  112. .IX Header "NOTES"
  113. OpenSSL uses \fBOSSL_DECODER\fR\|(3) implementations under the hood.
  114. To influence what \fBOSSL_DECODER\fR\|(3) implementations are used, it's advisable
  115. to use \fBOSSL_STORE_open_ex\fR\|(3) and set the \fIpropq\fR argument.
