YubiKey CSR Generator - Release Notes (Version 1.0.0)
Release Date: 2023-10-08
Overview
I'm excited to introduce the inaugural release of the YubiKey CSR Generator tool. This application streamlines the process of generating a Certificate Signing Request (CSR) using a private key from a YubiKey device. Its intuitive command-line interface and robust feature set provide a seamless experience for end-users.
New Features
-
Generate CSR using YubiKey: Harness the power and security of YubiKey devices to create CSRs effortlessly.
-
Multiple Slot Selection: The tool provides flexibility by allowing users to specify which slot number on the YubiKey device they want to use for key generation or retrieval.
-
File & Console Outputs: Choose to print your CSR directly to the console or save it to a specified file location. A bonus feature lets users extract the public key from the CSR and save it separately.
-
Customizable DN Attributes: Tailor your CSR's Distinguished Name (DN) with attributes like Common Name (CN), Organization (O), and more.
