How to decrypt PKCS#8 Encrypted private key with Password?

Hi,

We are using ESP32 and trying to decript PKCS#8 private key with Password.

We are facing the error "MBEDTLS_ERR_PKCS12_FEATURE_UNAVAILABLE " at "int mbedtls_pkcs12_pbe() → mbedtls_cipher_info_from_type() "

“RSA Private key” is working ok, the problem happened when we tried to use “Encrypted private key with password”

Can you let me know any point we have to check ?
Any comment or any hint would be highly appreciated.

Thanks ~

mbedTLS is supporitng handling “Encrypted private key” with password ?

Hi Rickoh,

Is your key encrypted with 3DES and CBS?
You should make sure that 3DES is enabled in Mbed TLS configuration. If 3DES is not enabled, then mbedtls_cipher_info_from_type() would fail.

Desmond

Dear Desmond; thank you for your your reply.

We check that it is 3DES.
If you have any comment or hint, we will test again.

Thanks~
Rick.

Hi Rick,
You should also verify that MBEDTLS_MD_SHA1 is supported in your configuration as well, to support your encrypted key.
Note it is better you use a stronger hash though.

Mbed TLS Support
