Ability to add personal/client certificate

Open dan-hughes opened this issue 9 years ago • 4 comments

In Firefox there is a 'Your Certificates' tab in the certificate manager. Could CCK2 add support to import certificates to this tab please?

It seems like a straightforward thing to do, but honestly I have no idea how to test it. I don't even totally understand what a user certificate is...

I can test it for you, I have started implementing it myself, just familiarizing myself with the FF API. Client/personal certificate, PKCS#12 format in my case consists of a certificate and private key which allow certain sites to authenticate you. PKCS#12 are usually protected via a password which from what I am reading using the importPKCS12File method would present the password entry dialogue.

Is it possible to override password entry dialogues?

Is it possible to override password entry dialogues? Not easily (because they are generic dialogs). Based on what you're saying, the CCK2 seems the wrong place for the personal cert because there wouldn't be an opportunity for a user to enter the password...
