There are several common schemes for serializing asymmetric private and public
keys to bytes. They generally support encryption of private keys and additional
key metadata.

Many serialization formats support multiple different types of asymmetric keys
and will return an instance of the appropriate type. You should check that
the returned key matches the type your application expects when using these
methods.

        >>> from cryptography.hazmat.primitives.asymmetric import dsa, rsa
        >>> from cryptography.hazmat.primitives.serialization import load_pem_private_key

Key dumping
~~~~~~~~~~~

The ``serialization`` module contains functions for loading keys from
``bytes``. To dump a ``key`` object to ``bytes``, you must call the appropriate
method on the key object. Documentation for these methods is found in the
:mod:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.asymmetric.rsa`,
:mod:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.asymmetric.dsa`, and
:mod:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.asymmetric.ec` module documentation.

PEM
~~~

PEM is an encapsulation format, meaning keys in it can actually be any of
several different key types. However these are all self-identifying, so you
don't need to worry about this detail. PEM keys are recognizable because they
all begin with ``-----BEGIN {format}-----`` and end with ``-----END
{format}-----``.

.. note::

    A PEM block which starts with ``-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----`` is not a
    public or private key, it's an :doc:`X.509 Certificate </x509/index>`. You
    can load it using :func:`~cryptography.x509.load_pem_x509_certificate` and
    extract the public key with
    :meth:`Certificate.public_key <cryptography.x509.Certificate.public_key>`.

.. function:: load_pem_private_key(data, password, *, unsafe_skip_rsa_key_validation=False)

    .. versionadded:: 0.6

    .. note::
        SSH private keys are a different format and must be loaded with
        :func:`load_ssh_private_key`.

    Deserialize a private key from PEM encoded data to one of the supported
    asymmetric private key types.

    :param data: The PEM encoded key data.
    :type data: :term:`bytes-like`

    :param password: The password to use to decrypt the data. Should
        be ``None`` if the private key is not encrypted.
    :type password: :term:`bytes-like`

    :param unsafe_skip_rsa_key_validation:

        .. versionadded:: 39.0.0

        A keyword-only argument that defaults to ``False``. If ``True``
        RSA private keys will not be validated. This significantly speeds up
        loading the keys, but is :term:`unsafe` unless you are certain the
        key is valid. User supplied keys should never be loaded with this
        parameter set to ``True``. If you do load an invalid key this way and
        attempt to use it OpenSSL may hang, crash, or otherwise misbehave.

        structure could not be decoded successfully.

    :raises TypeError: If a ``password`` was given and the private key was
        not encrypted. Or if the key was encrypted but no
        password was supplied.

    :raises cryptography.exceptions.UnsupportedAlgorithm: If the serialized key
        type is not supported by the OpenSSL version ``cryptography`` is using.

.. function:: load_pem_public_key(data)

    .. versionadded:: 0.6

    Deserialize a public key from PEM encoded data to one of the supported

    :raises cryptography.exceptions.UnsupportedAlgorithm: If the serialized key
        type is not supported by the OpenSSL version ``cryptography`` is using.

DER
~~~

DER is an ASN.1 encoding type. There are no encapsulation boundaries and the
data is binary. DER keys may be in a variety of formats, but as long as you
know whether it is a public or private key the loading functions will handle
the rest.

.. function:: load_der_private_key(data, password, *, unsafe_skip_rsa_key_validation=False)

OpenSSH Public Key
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The format used by OpenSSH to store public keys, as specified in :rfc:`4253`.

An example RSA key in OpenSSH format (line breaks added for formatting
purposes)::

    ssh-rsa AAAAB3NzaC1yc2EAAAADAQABAAABAQDDu/XRP1kyK6Cgt36gts9XAk
    FiiuJLW6RU0j3KKVZSs1I7Z3UmU9/9aVh/rZV43WQG8jaR6kkcP4stOR0DEtll

    ///ImSCGHQRvhwariN2tvZ6CBNSLh3iQgeB0AkyJlng7MXB2qYq/Ci2FUOryCX
    2MzHvnbv testkey@localhost

DSA keys look almost identical but begin with ``ssh-dss`` rather than
``ssh-rsa``. ECDSA keys have a slightly different format, they begin with
``ecdsa-sha2-{curve}``.

The format used by OpenSSH for certificates, as specified in
`PROTOCOL.certkeys`_.

.. data:: SSHCertPublicKeyTypes

    .. versionadded:: 40.0.0

    Type alias: A union of public key types supported for SSH
    certificates:
    :class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.asymmetric.rsa.RSAPublicKey`,
    :class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.asymmetric.ec.EllipticCurvePublicKey`
    or
    :class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.asymmetric.ed25519.Ed25519PublicKey`

.. data:: SSHCertPrivateKeyTypes

    .. versionadded:: 40.0.0

    Type alias: A union of private key types supported for SSH
    certificates:
    :class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.asymmetric.rsa.RSAPrivateKey`,
    :class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.asymmetric.ec.EllipticCurvePrivateKey`
    or
    :class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.asymmetric.ed25519.Ed25519PrivateKey`

.. function:: load_ssh_public_identity(data)

    .. versionadded:: 40.0.0

    .. note::

        This function does not support parsing certificates with DSA public
        keys or signatures from DSA certificate authorities. DSA is a
        deprecated algorithm and should not be used.

    Deserialize an OpenSSH encoded identity to an instance of
    :class:`SSHCertificate` or the appropriate public key type.
    Parsing a certificate does not verify anything. It is up to the caller to
    perform any necessary verification.

    :param data: The OpenSSH encoded data.
    :type data: bytes

    :returns: :class:`SSHCertificate` or one of :data:`SSHCertPublicKeyTypes`.

    :raises ValueError: If the OpenSSH data could not be properly decoded.

    :raises cryptography.exceptions.UnsupportedAlgorithm: If the data contains
        a public key type that is not supported.


.. class:: SSHCertificate

    .. versionadded:: 40.0.0

    .. attribute:: nonce

        :type: bytes

        The nonce field is a CA-provided random value of arbitrary length
        (but typically 16 or 32 bytes) included to make attacks that depend on
        inducing collisions in the signature hash infeasible.

    .. method:: public_key()

        The public key contained in the certificate, one of
        :data:`SSHCertPublicKeyTypes`.

    .. attribute:: serial

        :type: int

        Serial is an optional certificate serial number set by the CA to
        provide an abbreviated way to refer to certificates from that CA.
        If a CA does not wish to number its certificates, it must set this
        field to zero.

    .. attribute:: type

        :type: :class:`SSHCertificateType`

        Type specifies whether this certificate is for identification of a user
        or a host.

    .. attribute:: key_id

        :type: bytes

        This is a free-form text field that is filled in by the CA at the time
        of signing; the intention is that the contents of this field are used to
        identify the identity principal in log messages.

    .. attribute:: valid_principals

        :type: list[bytes]

        "valid principals" is a list containing one or more principals as
        byte strings. These principals list the names for which this
        certificate is valid; hostnames for host certificates and
        usernames for user certificates. As a special case, an
        empty list means the certificate is valid for any principal of
        the specified type.

    .. attribute:: valid_after

        :type: int

        An integer representing the Unix timestamp (in UTC) after which the
        certificate is valid. **This time is inclusive.**

    .. attribute:: valid_before

        :type: int

        An integer representing the Unix timestamp (in UTC) before which the
        certificate is valid. **This time is not inclusive.**

    .. attribute:: critical_options

        :type: dict[bytes, bytes]

        Critical options is a dict of zero or more options that are
        critical for the certificate to be considered valid. If
        any of these options are not supported by the implementation, the
        certificate must be rejected.

    .. attribute:: extensions

        :type: dict[bytes, bytes]

        Extensions is a dict of zero or more options that are
        non-critical for the certificate to be considered valid. If any of
        these options are not supported by the implementation, the
        implementation may safely ignore them.

    .. method:: signature_key()

        The public key used to sign the certificate, one of
        :data:`SSHCertPublicKeyTypes`.

    .. method:: verify_cert_signature()

        .. warning::

            This method does not validate anything about whether the
            signing key is trusted! Callers are responsible for validating
            trust in the signer.

        Validates that the signature on the certificate was created by
        the private key associated with the certificate's signature key
        and that the certificate has not been changed since signing.

        :return: None
        :raises: :class:`~cryptography.exceptions.InvalidSignature` if the
            signature is invalid.

    .. method:: public_bytes()

        :return: The serialized certificate in OpenSSH format.
        :rtype: bytes


.. class:: SSHCertificateType

    .. versionadded:: 40.0.0

    An enumeration of the types of SSH certificates.

    .. attribute:: USER

        The cert is intended for identification of a user. Corresponds to the
        value ``1``.

    .. attribute:: HOST

        The cert is intended for identification of a host. Corresponds to the
        value ``2``.

SSH Certificate Builder
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

.. class:: SSHCertificateBuilder

    .. versionadded:: 40.0.0

    .. note::

        This builder does not support generating certificates with DSA public
        keys or creating signatures with DSA certificate authorities. DSA is a
        deprecated algorithm and should not be used.

    .. doctest::

        :type public_key: :data:`SSHCertPublicKeyTypes`

    .. method:: serial(serial)

        :param int serial: The serial number to be included in the certificate.
            This is not a required value and will be set to zero if not
            provided. Value must be between 0 and 2:sup:`64` - 1, inclusive.

    .. method:: type(type)

        :param type: The type of the certificate. There are two options,

    .. method:: valid_principals(valid_principals)

        :param valid_principals: A list of principals that the certificate is
            valid for. This is a required value unless
            :meth:`valid_for_all_principals` has been called.
        :type valid_principals: list[bytes]

    .. method:: valid_for_all_principals()

        Marks the certificate as valid for all principals. This cannot be
        set if principals have been added via :meth:`valid_principals`.

    .. method:: valid_after(valid_after)

PKCS12
~~~~~~

.. currentmodule:: cryptography.hazmat.primitives.serialization.pkcs12

PKCS12 is a binary format described in :rfc:`7292`. It can contain
certificates, keys, and more. PKCS12 files commonly have a ``pfx`` or ``p12``
file suffix.

.. note::

    ``cryptography`` only supports a single private key and associated
    certificates when parsing PKCS12 files at this time.


.. data:: PKCS12PrivateKeyTypes

    .. versionadded:: 40.0.0

    Type alias: A union of private key types supported for PKCS12
    serialization:
    :class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.asymmetric.rsa.RSAPrivateKey`
    ,
    :class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.asymmetric.ec.EllipticCurvePrivateKey`
    ,
    :class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.asymmetric.ed25519.Ed25519PrivateKey`
    ,
    :class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.asymmetric.ed448.Ed448PrivateKey`
    or
    :class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.asymmetric.dsa.DSAPrivateKey`.

.. function:: load_key_and_certificates(data, password)

    .. versionadded:: 2.5

    Deserialize a PKCS12 blob.

    :param data: The binary data.
    :type data: :term:`bytes-like`

    :param password: The password to use to decrypt the data. ``None``
        if the PKCS12 is not encrypted.
    :type password: :term:`bytes-like`

    :returns: A tuple of
        ``(private_key, certificate, additional_certificates)``.
        ``private_key`` is a private key type or ``None``, ``certificate``
        is either the :class:`~cryptography.x509.Certificate` whose public key
        matches the private key in the PKCS 12 object or ``None``, and
        ``additional_certificates`` is a list of all other
        :class:`~cryptography.x509.Certificate` instances in the PKCS12 object.

.. function:: load_pkcs12(data, password)

    .. versionadded:: 36.0.0

    Deserialize a PKCS12 blob, and return a
    :class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.serialization.pkcs12.PKCS12KeyAndCertificates`
    instance.

    :param data: The binary data.
    :type data: :term:`bytes-like`

    :param password: The password to use to decrypt the data. ``None``
        if the PKCS12 is not encrypted.
    :type password: :term:`bytes-like`

    :returns: A
        :class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.serialization.pkcs12.PKCS12KeyAndCertificates`
        instance.

.. function:: serialize_key_and_certificates(name, key, cert, cas, encryption_algorithm)

    .. versionadded:: 3.0

    .. note::
        With OpenSSL 3.0.0+ the defaults for encryption when serializing PKCS12
        have changed and some versions of Windows and macOS will not be able to
        read the new format. Maximum compatibility can be achieved by using
        ``SHA1`` for MAC algorithm and
        :attr:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.serialization.pkcs12.PBES.PBESv1SHA1And3KeyTripleDESCBC`
        for encryption algorithm as seen in the example below. However, users
        should avoid this unless required for compatibility.

    .. warning::

        PKCS12 encryption is typically not secure and should not be used as a
        security mechanism. Wrap a PKCS12 blob in a more secure envelope if you
        need to store or send it safely.

    Serialize a PKCS12 blob.

    .. note::

        Due to `a bug in Firefox`_ it's not possible to load unencrypted PKCS12
        blobs in Firefox.

    :param name: The friendly name to use for the supplied certificate and key.
    :type name: bytes

    :param key: The private key to include in the structure.
    :type key: :data:`PKCS12PrivateKeyTypes`

    :param cert: The certificate associated with the private key.
    :type cert: :class:`~cryptography.x509.Certificate` or ``None``

    :param cas: An optional set of certificates to also include in the structure.
        If a :class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.serialization.pkcs12.PKCS12Certificate`
        is given, its friendly name will be serialized.
    :type cas: ``None``, or list of
        :class:`~cryptography.x509.Certificate`
        or
        :class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.serialization.pkcs12.PKCS12Certificate`

    :param encryption_algorithm: The encryption algorithm that should be used
        for the key and certificate. An instance of an object conforming to the
        :class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.serialization.KeySerializationEncryption`
        interface. PKCS12 encryption is typically **very weak** and should not
        be used as a security boundary.

    :return bytes: Serialized PKCS12.

    This example uses an ``encryption_builder()`` to create a PKCS12 with more
    compatible, but substantially less secure, encryption.

.. class:: PKCS7SignatureBuilder

    The PKCS7 signature builder can create both basic PKCS7 signed messages as
    well as S/MIME messages, which are commonly used in email. S/MIME has
    multiple versions, but this implements a subset of :rfc:`2632`, also known
    as S/MIME Version 3.

        :param rsa_padding:

            .. versionadded:: 42.0.0

            This is a keyword-only argument. If ``private_key`` is an
            ``RSAPrivateKey`` then this can be set to either
            :class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.asymmetric.padding.PKCS1v15` or
            :class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.asymmetric.padding.PSS` to sign
            with those respective paddings. If this is ``None`` then RSA
            keys will default to ``PKCS1v15`` padding. All other key types **must**
            not pass a value other than ``None``.

    .. method:: add_certificate(certificate)

        Add an additional certificate (typically used to help build a
        verification chain) to the PKCS7 structure. This method may
        be called multiple times to add as many certificates as desired.

        :param certificate: The :class:`~cryptography.x509.Certificate` to add.

    The PKCS7 envelope builder can create encrypted S/MIME messages,
    which are commonly used in email. S/MIME has multiple versions,

    .. method:: add_recipient(certificate)

        Add a recipient for the message. Recipients will be able to use their private keys
        to decrypt the message. This method may be called multiple times to add as many recipients
        as desired.

        :param certificate: A :class:`~cryptography.x509.Certificate` for an intended
            recipient of the encrypted message. Only certificates with public RSA keys
            are currently supported.

    .. method:: encrypt(encoding, options)

        The message is encrypted using AES-128-CBC. The encryption key used is included in
        the envelope, encrypted using the recipient's public RSA key. If multiple recipients
        are specified, the key is encrypted once with each recipient's public key, and all
        encrypted keys are included in the envelope (one per recipient).

        :param encoding: :attr:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.serialization.Encoding.PEM`,

.. class:: PKCS7Options

    .. versionadded:: 3.2

    An enumeration of options for PKCS7 signature, envelope creation, and decryption.

    .. attribute:: Text

        For signing, the text option adds ``text/plain`` headers to an S/MIME message when
        serializing to 
        :attr:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.serialization.Encoding.SMIME`.
        This option is disallowed with ``DER`` serialization.
        For envelope creation, it adds ``text/plain`` headers to the encrypted content, regardless
        of the specified encoding.
        For envelope decryption, it parses the decrypted content headers (if any), checks if the
        content type is 'text/plain', then removes all headers (keeping only the payload) of this
        decrypted content. If there is no header, or the content type is not "text/plain", it
        raises an error.

    .. attribute:: Binary

        Signature and envelope creation normally converts line endings (LF to CRLF). When
        passing this option, the data will not be converted.

    .. attribute:: DetachedSignature

        Don't embed the signed data within the ASN.1. When signing with
        :attr:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.serialization.Encoding.SMIME`
        this also results in the data being added as clear text before the
        PEM encoded structure.

    .. attribute:: NoCapabilities

        PKCS7 structures contain a ``MIMECapabilities`` section inside the
        ``authenticatedAttributes``. Passing this as an option removes
        ``MIMECapabilities``.

    .. attribute:: NoAttributes

        PKCS7 structures contain an ``authenticatedAttributes`` section.
        Passing this as an option removes that section. Note that if you
        pass ``NoAttributes`` you can't pass ``NoCapabilities`` since
        ``NoAttributes`` removes ``MIMECapabilities`` and more.

    .. attribute:: NoCerts

        Don't include the signer's certificate in the PKCS7 structure. This can
        reduce the size of the signature but requires that the recipient can
        obtain the signer's certificate by other means (for example from a
        previously signed message).

Serialization Formats
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

.. currentmodule:: cryptography.hazmat.primitives.serialization

.. class:: PrivateFormat
    :canonical: cryptography.hazmat.primitives._serialization.PrivateFormat

    .. versionadded:: 0.8

    An enumeration for private key formats. Used with the ``private_bytes``
    method available on
    :class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.asymmetric.rsa.RSAPrivateKey`
    ,
    :class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.asymmetric.ec.EllipticCurvePrivateKey`
    , :class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.asymmetric.dh.DHPrivateKey`
    and
    :class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.asymmetric.dsa.DSAPrivateKey`.

    .. attribute:: TraditionalOpenSSL

        Frequently known as PKCS#1 format. Still a widely used format, but
        generally considered legacy.

        A PEM encoded RSA key will look like::

            -----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
            ...
            -----END RSA PRIVATE KEY-----

    .. attribute:: PKCS8

        A more modern format for serializing keys which allows for better
        encryption. Choose this unless you have explicit legacy compatibility
        requirements.

        A PEM encoded key will look like::

            -----BEGIN PRIVATE KEY-----
            ...
            -----END PRIVATE KEY-----

    .. attribute:: Raw

        .. versionadded:: 2.5

        :doc:`/hazmat/primitives/asymmetric/x25519`, and
        :doc:`/hazmat/primitives/asymmetric/x448`. It is a
        binary format and is invalid for other key types.

    .. attribute:: OpenSSH

        .. versionadded:: 3.0

        Custom private key format for OpenSSH, internals are based on SSH protocol
        and not ASN1.  Requires
        :attr:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.serialization.Encoding.PEM`
        encoding.

        A PEM encoded OpenSSH key will look like::

            -----END OPENSSH PRIVATE KEY-----

    .. attribute:: PKCS12

        .. versionadded:: 38.0.0

        The PKCS#12 format is a binary format used to store private keys and
        certificates. This attribute is used in conjunction with
        ``encryption_builder()`` to allow control of the encryption algorithm
        and parameters.

        .. doctest::

            >>> from cryptography.hazmat.primitives import hashes

    .. method:: encryption_builder()

        .. versionadded:: 38.0.0

        Returns a builder for configuring how values are encrypted with this
        format. You must call this method on an element of the enumeration.
        For example, ``PrivateFormat.OpenSSH.encryption_builder()``.

        For most use cases, :class:`BestAvailableEncryption` is preferred.
