PKCS#11 Module for the Nitrokey NetHSM

codecov.io

This module allows to use a Nitrokey NetHSM as a backend for PKCS#11 operations.

See the list of supported features for more details.

Download

Download the latest binary from the release page.

Documentation

Follow the documentation for usage instructions.

Debug Options

Set the RUST_LOG env variable to trace, debug, info, warn or err to change the logging level.

Docker Examples

For testing and development purposes there are two examples using the PKCS11 driver with Nginx and Apache.

They require each a certificate built with the container/<server>/generate.sh.

They can be built with:

# Building the images 
docker build -t nginx-testing -f container/nginx/Dockerfile .
docker build -t apache-testing -f container/apache/Dockerfile .

Assuming that a NetHSM is runnig on localhost:8443, they can then be run with :

docker run --net=host nginx-testing:latest
docker run --net=host apache-testing:latest

The NetHSM is expected to have be provisionned with the following configuration:

nitropy nethsm --host localhost:8443 --no-verify-tls provision -u 0123456789 -a Administrator
nitropy nethsm --host localhost:8443 --no-verify-tls add-user -n Operator -u operator -p opPassphrase -r Operator

Building

Required are gcc and a working Rust toolchain of at least version (MSRV) 1.70.

cargo build --release

The dynamic library will be in ${CARGO_TARGET_DIR:-target}/release/libnethsm_pkcs11.so.

Alpine Linux

You need to install musl-dev and gcc:

apk add musl-dev gcc

To build on Alpine Linux you will need to add the C argument target-feature=-crt-static:

RUSTFLAGS="-C target-feature=-crt-static" cargo build --release
