pkcs11-tools is a toolkit containing a bunch of small utilities to perform key management tasks on cryptographic tokens implementing a PKCS#11 interface.
It features a number of commands similar to the unix CLI utilities, such as ls
, mv
, rm
, od
, and more
. It also has specific commands to generate keys, generate CSRs, import certificates and other files, in a fashion compatible with most implementations, including both IBM and Oracle JVMs.
It is also able to interface with NSS libraries from mozilla.org
To build the source code, simply execute (with appropriate privileges)
$ ./configure
$ make install
To list the methods available on a PKCS#11 token, use p11slotinfo
, that will return the list of available echanisms, together with allowed APIs.
$ p11slotinfo -l /usr/local/opt/softhsm/lib/softhsm/libsofthsm2.so

optional arg | description | environment variable |
---|---|---|
-l |
path to library | PKCS11LIB |
-m |
path to NSS keystore (for NSS only) | PKCS11NSSDIR |
-s |
slot index number | PKCS11SLOT |
-t |
token name | PKCS11TOKEN |
-p |

:
$ p11cat pubk/rsa

Generating a key is easy: just use p11keygen
with the proper arguments.
$ p11keygen -k ec -q prime256v1 -i my-ec-key CKA_SIGN=true CKA_VERIFY=true
Generating, please wait...
key generation succeeded
Likewise, p11req
is used to generate a CSR.
$ p11req -i my-ec-key -d '/CN=my.site.org/O=My organization/C=BE' -e 'DNS:another-url-for-my.site.org' -v

Later, p11importcert
can be used to import the certificate back to the keystore. Public keys can be imported using p11importpubk
, and data files with p11importdata
.
If you need to wrap or unwrap a key, you can use the command p11wrap
:
$ p11wrap -w aes-wrapping -i rootca -a cbcpad >wrapped-key.wrap
key wrapping succeeded
The key can be uwrapped later, reusing the wrapped-key.wrap
file created earlier:
$ p11unwrap -f wrapped-key.wrap
key unwrapping succeeded
The project can compile on many platforms, including Linux, AIX, Solaris. Using cross-compilers, it is also possible to compile for the Windows platform. Compilation under MacOS requires brew. Please refer to Installation for installation instructions.
Please refer to Manual for instructions. There is also an How-to guide for working with NSS keystores.
