For example: .PP .Vb 4 \& \-\-\-\-\-BEGIN PRIVATE KEY\-\-\-\-\- \& MIICdg.... \& ... bhTQ== \& \-\-\-\-\-END PRIVATE KEY\-\-\-\-\- .Ve .PP Optional header line(s) may appear after the begin line, and their existence depends on the type of object being written or read. .PP \&\fIPEM_write()\fR writes to the file \fBfp\fR, while \fIPEM_write_bio()\fR writes to the \s-1BIO \s0\fBbp\fR. The \fBname\fR is the name to use in the marker, the \&\fBheader\fR is the header value or \s-1NULL,\s0 and \fBdata\fR and \fBlen\fR specify the data and its length. .PP The final \fBdata\fR buffer is typically an \s-1ASN.1\s0 object which can be decoded with the \fBd2i\fR function appropriate to the type \fBname\fR; see \fId2i_X509\fR\|(3) for examples. .PP \&\fIPEM_read()\fR reads from the file \fBfp\fR, while \fIPEM_read_bio()\fR reads from the \s-1BIO \s0\fBbp\fR. Both skip any non-PEM data that precedes the start of the next \s-1PEM\s0 object. When an object is successfully retrieved, the type name from the \*(L"\-\-\-\-BEGIN <type>\-\-\-\-\-\*(R" is returned via the \fBname\fR argument, any encapsulation headers are returned in \fBheader\fR and the base64\-decoded content and its length are returned via \fBdata\fR and \fBlen\fR respectively. The \fBname\fR, \fBheader\fR and \fBdata\fR pointers are allocated via \fIOPENSSL_malloc()\fR and should be freed by the caller via \fIOPENSSL_free()\fR when no longer needed. .PP \&\fIPEM_get_EVP_CIPHER_INFO()\fR can be used to determine the \fBdata\fR returned by \&\fIPEM_read()\fR or \fIPEM_read_bio()\fR is encrypted and to retrieve the associated cipher and \s-1IV.\s0 The caller passes a pointer to structure of type \fB\s-1EVP_CIPHER_INFO\s0\fR via the \&\fBcinfo\fR argument and the \fBheader\fR returned via \fIPEM_read()\fR or \fIPEM_read_bio()\fR. If the call is successful 1 is returned and the cipher and \s-1IV\s0 are stored at the address pointed to by \fBcinfo\fR. When the header is malformed, or not supported or when the cipher is unknown or some internal error happens 0 is returned. This function is deprecated, see \fB\s-1NOTES\s0\fR below. .PP \&\fIPEM_do_header()\fR can then be used to decrypt the data if the header indicates encryption. The \fBcinfo\fR argument is a pointer to the structure initialized by the previous call to \fIPEM_get_EVP_CIPHER_INFO()\fR. The \fBdata\fR and \fBlen\fR arguments are those returned by the previous call to \&\fIPEM_read()\fR or \fIPEM_read_bio()\fR. The \fBcb\fR and \fBu\fR arguments make it possible to override the default password prompt function as described in \fIPEM_read_PrivateKey\fR\|(3). On successful completion the \fBdata\fR is decrypted in place, and \fBlen\fR is updated to indicate the plaintext length. This function is deprecated, see \fB\s-1NOTES\s0\fR below. .PP If the data is a priori known to not be encrypted, then neither \fIPEM_do_header()\fR nor \fIPEM_get_EVP_CIPHER_INFO()\fR need be called. .SH "RETURN VALUES" .IX Header "RETURN VALUES" \&\fIPEM_read()\fR and \fIPEM_read_bio()\fR return 1 on success and 0 on failure, the latter includes the case when no more \s-1PEM\s0 objects remain in the input file. To distinguish end of file from more serious errors the caller must peek at the error stack and check for \fB\s-1PEM_R_NO_START_LINE\s0\fR, which indicates that no more \&\s-1PEM\s0 objects were found. See \fIERR_peek_last_error\fR\|(3), \s-1\fIERR_GET_REASON\s0\fR\|(3). .PP \&\fIPEM_get_EVP_CIPHER_INFO()\fR and \fIPEM_do_header()\fR return 1 on success, and 0 on failure. The \fBdata\fR is likely meaningless if these functions fail. .SH "NOTES" .IX Header "NOTES" The \fIPEM_get_EVP_CIPHER_INFO()\fR and \fIPEM_do_header()\fR functions are deprecated. This is because the underlying \s-1PEM\s0 encryption format is obsolete, and should be avoided. It uses an encryption format with an OpenSSL-specific key-derivation function, which employs \s-1MD5\s0 with an iteration count of 1! Instead, private keys should be stored in PKCS#8 form, with a strong PKCS#5 v2.0 \s-1PBE.\s0 See \fIPEM_write_PrivateKey\fR\|(3) and \fId2i_PKCS8PrivateKey_bio\fR\|(3). .PP \&\fIPEM_do_header()\fR makes no assumption regarding the pass phrase received from the password callback. It will simply be treated as a byte sequence. .SH "SEE ALSO" .IX Header "SEE ALSO" \&\fIERR_peek_last_error\fR\|(3), \s-1\fIERR_GET_LIB\s0\fR\|(3), \&\fId2i_PKCS8PrivateKey_bio\fR\|(3), \&\fIpassphrase\-encoding\fR\|(7) .SH "COPYRIGHT" .IX Header "COPYRIGHT" Copyright 1998\-2018 The OpenSSL Project Authors.
