openssl_csr_get_subject

(PHP 5 >= 5.2.0, PHP 7, PHP 8)

openssl_csr_get_subject — Returns the subject of a CSR

Descrizione

openssl_csr_get_subject(OpenSSLCertificateSigningRequest|string $csr, bool $short_names = true): array|false

openssl_csr_get_subject() returns subject distinguished name information encoded in the csr including fields commonName (CN), organizationName (O), countryName (C) etc.

Elenco dei parametri

csr: See CSR parameters for a list of valid values.
short_names: shortnames controls how the data is indexed in the array - if shortnames is true (the default) then fields will be indexed with the short name form, otherwise, the long name form will be used - e.g.: CN is the shortname form of commonName.

Valori restituiti

Returns an associative array with subject description, o false in caso di fallimento.

Log delle modifiche

Versione	Descrizione
8.0.0	`csr` accepts an OpenSSLCertificateSigningRequest instance now; previously, a resource of type `OpenSSL X.509 CSR` was accepted.

Example #1 openssl_csr_get_subject() example

<?php
$subject = array(
    "countryName" => "CA",
    "stateOrProvinceName" => "Alberta",
    "localityName" => "Calgary",
    "organizationName" => "XYZ Widgets Inc",
    "organizationalUnitName" => "PHP Documentation Team",
    "commonName" => "Wez Furlong",
    "emailAddress" => "wez@example.com",
);
$private_key = openssl_pkey_new(array(
    "private_key_bits" => 2048,
    "private_key_type" => OPENSSL_KEYTYPE_RSA,
));
$configargs = array(
    'digest_alg' => 'sha512WithRSAEncryption'
);
$csr = openssl_csr_new($subject, $privkey, $configargs);
print_r(openssl_csr_get_subject($csr));
?>

Il precedente esempio visualizzerà qualcosa simile a:

Array
(
    [C] => CA
    [ST] => Alberta
    [L] => Calgary
    [O] => XYZ Widgets Inc
    [OU] => PHP Documentation Team
    [CN] => Wez Furlong
    [emailAddress] => wez@example.com
)

This function may not return name fields in the order they appear in the certificate.  For example, this CSR:

-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE REQUEST-----
MIHsMIGUAgEAMDIxEDAOBgNVBAsMB3VuaXQgIzExDDAKBgNVBAoMA29yZzEQMA4G
A1UECwwHdW5pdCAjMjBZMBMGByqGSM49AgEGCCqGSM49AwEHA0IABGvZnFxGuVzJ
hOKPs5RNxZBS4vY6ERaqm5tKMGOhxLSfv/dpjDtNNdSHkIGNjYxclHYhxG0ku7BY
PA5uPIjng1SgADAKBggqhkjOPQQDAgNHADBEAiB4GXhhbEU1UFTCe0dwJnKHTQuI
xzYL5FnyhmKdixN/0gIgBXSm9S8L/oJ6rBxemin/V/xKv5jy4TEZuz84nnshxQQ=
-----END CERTIFICATE REQUEST-----

When processed by 'openssl -noout -subject' gives this:

subject=/OU=unit #1/O=org/OU=unit #2

On the other hand, 'var_dump( openssl_csr_get_subject( "..." ) )' will produce this:

csr = array(2) {
  ["OU"]=>
  array(2) {
    [0]=>
    string(7) "unit #1"
    [1]=>
    string(7) "unit #2"
  }
  ["O"]=>
  string(3) "org"
}

As you can see, ordering information (which may be important for some applications) is lost.

this function does not yet return SANs (subject alternative names) fields for UC certificates like those used in exchange 2007.

The returning assoziative array is indexed with the fields
in the subject so you should have a array key named CN,OU and so on.
