Скачать openssl для windows 10 64 bit с официального сайта

В эпоху кибервойн единственная разумная позиция – быть параноиком, а это означает, помимо прочего, быть параноиком по поводу обновлений программного обеспечения.

Взять к примеру OpenSSL.

Эта криптографическая библиотека с открытым исходным кодом, которая реализует протоколы Transport Layer Security (TLS) и Secure Sockets Layer (SSL), разработана для «защиты связи по компьютерным сетям от перехвата», но угадайте, что?

С самого начала она была пронизана ошибками.

Это может быть неизбежно, в определенной степени – в конце концов, мы говорим о программном обеспечении.

Несмотря на то, что вы не можете ничего сделать с ошибками, которые еще предстоит идентифицировать, вы можете по крайней мере защитить свои системы от тех ошибок, которые уже исправлены и задокументированы.

Жаль, что официальный сайт OpenSSL предлагает только исходники для Linux.

Хотя дистрибутивы Linux обычно поставляются с OpenSSL, это не никак относится к Windows … или, скажем, «дистрибутивам Windows».

Если вы хотите запустить его, вам нужен бинарник под Windows, и если вы не хотите его собирать самостоятельно, вы должны найти другой вариант.

В этой статье я покажу,как можно настроить OpenSSL в Windows, не имея дело при этом дела со сборкой из исходников.

Шаг 1. Скачать бинарник

Поиск бинарных файлов OpenSSL для Windows – непростая задача, но не отчаивайтесь.

Они существуют.

Чтобы загрузить нужный, перейдите по ссылке:

https://slproweb.com/products/Win32OpenSSL.html

Не дайте себя одурачить ни строкой Win32 в URL-адресе, ни навигацией, указывающей на казалось бы древнюю страницу загрузки еще с 2004 года.

Прокрутите страницу вниз до раздела «Download Win32 OpenSSL».

Теперь вам нужно выбрать правильный файл из этого списка.

Для каждой версии есть два основных типа: light и full.

Загрузите файл под названием «Win64 OpenSSL v1.1.0f» (или версию с более новой версией, как только она станет доступна), чтобы скачать фулл установщик.

Шаг 2. Запустите установщик

Мы рекомендуем установить OpenSSL вне вашей системной директории Windows.

Следуйте инструкциям по установке через GUI.

Шаг 3. Запустите бинарный файл OpenSSL

Чтобы начать работу с OpenSSL, вы можете просто щелкнуть по нему правой кнопкой мыши в проводнике Windows в месте его установки, например в моем случае:

C:\OpenSSL-Win64\bin\

openssl req -newkey rsa:2048 -nodes -keyout key.pem -x509 -days 365 -out certificate.pem

openssl x509 -text -noout -in certificate.pem

Tutorial: OpenSSL provision on Windows 10 and Windows 11

OpenSSL was previously reserved for Linux operating systems or had to be compiled from the source code itself under Mac and Windows. With Win32/Win64 OpenSSL, the open source software library can also be run on 32-bit and 64-bit Windows OS (x86/i386) and can be integrated on Windows machines via installer.

OpenSSL is widely used and found by encryption in numerous application and secure connections, as well as for SSL/TLS connections HTTPS, including cryptography in SSH, OpenVPN and DNSSEC.

The Win32/Win64 OpenSSL installation project from Shining Light Productions (slproweb.com) carrying the ease of deployment of OpenSSL for Microsoft Windows. The installation consists of downloading and unpacking the binaries, which eliminates the need to compile source code.

Installation

This tutorial shows two methods to deploy OpenSSL on Windows 10 and Windows 11. The simple method right at the beginning, by running Windows Package Manager with hit the Windows-logo+R keys and enter cmd in the Run box then click OK, or press and hit cmd then click the command prompt icon.

In the now opened command prompt ran the following command, if you are not authorized as administrator with the logged in user, you can select “Run as administrator”.

C:\> winget install openssl

The Windows package manager “winget” allows you to install applications and other packages by using the command line. If winget is started for the first time, you will be prompted to confirm the source agreement terms, by hit the Y key.

The OpenSSL package is now installed. The second method is to download and install the package.

Install Win64 OpenSSL package manually

The table (screenshot) on the slproweb.com website contains the versions for Win32 and Win64 OpenSSL as EXE and MSI installers.

Recommended here is the latest version with the most commonly used essentials of Win64 OpenSSL v3.0.7, at the time of writing this article, it is Win64 OpenSSL v3.0.7 EXE Light, at the top of the first line.

Double-click to execute the file Win64OpenSSL_Light-3_0_7.exe will the setup wizard appears. Confirm the Windows Account Control (UAC) with Yes to continue the installation.

The setup wizard unpacks and copies the OpenSSL files.

Set up the OpenSSL environment

After the OpenSSL files are copied and installed, the search path and environment variable are now added to the operating system, with + R and paste SYSTEMPROPERTIESADVANCED and click OK.

The System Properties window opens.

Click the Environment Variables button at the bottom.

In the lower area System Variables, select the Path line with the mouse and click on the Edit button.

In the “Edit Environment Variables” window, click New to add the path to the OpenSSL-Win64\bin folder under Program files. The path in which the file openssl.exe is located can be found with Windows Explorer and copied to the clipboard, there is also the possibility to choose the path to the bin folder with the Browse button. Confirm the action with OK.

Now add another system variable with click New.

Enter OPENSSL_CONF in the Variable name field. In the next field insert the path to which the file openssl.cnf is located, here it is C:\Program Files\OpenSSL-Win64\bin\cnf\openssl.cnf

The installation is now complete and OpenSSL can be used. First of all, there is the opportunity to check the OpenSSL provisioned release.

C:\> openssl version -a
OpenSSL 3.0.7 1 Nov 2022 (Library: OpenSSL 3.0.7 1 Nov 2022)
built on: Tue Nov  1 16:04:12 2022 UTC
...
C:\> openssl version -d
OPENSSLDIR: "C:\Program Files\Common Files\SSL"

The OpenSSL Toolkit is a versatile utility with many options, but under Windows there is not the possibility of using the man page, as is known on Linux. However, the openssl help command provides context-sensitive help, such asopenssl help s_clientor useopenssl help x509oropenssl help reqto show just a few examples. Help is also offered on the documentation pages on the web, where manpages can also be found.

Useful OpenSSL Examples

A few of the most commonly used openssl command examples in the console are shown below, note that this is not a comprehensive collection of all possible applicable commands of this powerful open source toolkit.

openssl x509 -noout -text -in ca-cert.pem

Displaying and print the ca-cert.pem certificate file in plain text.

openssl req -text -noout -verify -in x509-check.csr

View and verify the contents of CSR x509-check.csr in plain text.

openssl rsa -check -in rootCA.key

Verify key consistency of the rootCA.key file.

openssl x509 -noout -modulus -in ca-cert.pem | openssl md5

Check md5 checksum of certificate ca-cert.pem file.

openssl crl2pkcs7 -nocrl -certfile servercert.pem -out c:\temp\servercert.p7b

Convert certificate from pem to p7b format and write to temp folder.

openssl pkcs12 -export -in rootCA.pem -inkey rootCA.key -out c:\temp\rootCA.p12 -name "PKCS12 certificate"

Convert certificate rootCA.pem to PKCS12 format as rootCA.p12 file.

openssl req -new -newkey rsa:2048 -sha256 -days 365 -nodes -x509 -keyout server.key -out server.crt

Generate SSL certificate and key on a single line, using SHA256 with RSA 2048 encryption, the certificate will be valid for 1 year.

openssl s_client -connect imap.gmail.com:993

Check connection to imap.gmail.com service 993 to get more useful results like than as in telnet.

openssl s_client -crlf -connect smtp.gmail.com:587 -starttls smtp

Try to connect service 587 on smtp.gmail.com using the starttls protocol, possibly to check a firewall policy for its effect.

openssl s_client -verify_quiet -brief www.ietf.org:443

Check protocol version and ciphersuite, peer certificate and hash used.

openssl rand -base64 20

Generate a random password in base64 using OpenSSL, can be used as a passphrase to hide private keys from spying eyes.

These were just a few examples, because openssl is a versatile toolkit that offers numerous application options.

Conclusion

The OpenSSL open-source library for cryptography is more important than ever and indispensable. Connections are encrypted and protected, so why shouldn’t the OpenSSL Toolkit be used on Windows? Creating and managing Digital X. 509 certificates, check algorithms for data encryption such as Chiper Suite, digital fingerprint, MD5 and SHA hash values can be checked, which was previously reserved only for Linux.
