Overview

RSA is an asymmetric public key algorithm that has been formalized in RFC 3447. It is in widespread use in public key infrastuctures (PKI) where certificates (cf. OpenSSL::X509::Certificate) often are issued on the basis of a public/private RSA key pair. RSA is used in a wide field of applications such as secure (symmetric) key exchange, e.g. when establishing a secure TLS/SSL connection. It is also used in various digital signature schemes.

Constructor Details

#new(key_size) ⇒ Object #new(encoded_key) ⇒ Object #new(encoded_key, pass_phrase) ⇒ Object

Generates or loads an RSA keypair. If an integer key_size is given it represents the desired key size. Keys less than 1024 bits should be considered insecure.

A key can instead be loaded from an encoded_key which must be PEM or DER encoded. A pass_phrase can be used to decrypt the key. If none is given OpenSSL will prompt for the pass phrase.

Examples

OpenSSL::PKey::RSA.new 2048
OpenSSL::PKey::RSA.new File.read 'rsa.pem'
OpenSSL::PKey::RSA.new File.read('rsa.pem'), 'my pass phrase'

Class Method Details

.generate(size) ⇒ Object .generate(size, exponent) ⇒ Object

Generates an RSA keypair. size is an integer representing the desired key size. Keys smaller than 1024 should be considered insecure. exponent is an odd number normally 3, 17, or 65537.
