Feature request to have DHE/ECDHE based certificate creation #498

Closed ciscohack closed 1 month ago

ciscohack commented 10 months ago

Hello Chris,

First I would like to thank you for such a great tool, it helps a lot in my day-to-day lab creation. But I missed one option and hope to get this in future releases. Can you add DHE and ECDHE or ECDH-based server certificates? I know this option is only for server/client certificates. Hence, I request you to please include this option to have this extension in the extension option in the next release.

Please do ack to my feature request

As far as i know (EC)DH(E) is part of the TLS key exchange to reach Perfect-Forward-Secrecy. It has nothing to do with the certificate itself. I did not find anything on the internet about "ECDHE or ECDH-based server certificates". Also I know nothing about a ECDHE-extension. Maybe I'm just too ignorant/blind.

Please point me to any RFC or other spec and even better attach an example "ECDHE or ECDH-based server certificate" for me to see what you mean. TIA
