Python wrapper module around the OpenSSL library

======================================================== pyOpenSSL -- A Python wrapper around the OpenSSL library

.. image:: https://readthedocs.org/projects/pyopenssl/badge/?version=stable :target: https://pyopenssl.org/en/stable/ :alt: Stable Docs

.. image:: https://github.com/pyca/pyopenssl/workflows/CI/badge.svg?branch=main :target: https://github.com/pyca/pyopenssl/actions?query=workflow%3ACI+branch%3Amain

Note: The Python Cryptographic Authority strongly suggests the use of pyca/cryptography_ where possible. If you are using pyOpenSSL for anything other than making a TLS connection you should move to cryptography and drop your pyOpenSSL dependency.

High-level wrapper around a subset of the OpenSSL library. Includes

SSL.Connection objects, wrapping the methods of Python's portable sockets
Callbacks written in Python
Extensive error-handling mechanism, mirroring OpenSSL's error codes

... and much more.

You can find more information in the documentation_. Development takes place on GitHub_.

Discussion

If you run into bugs, you can file them in our issue tracker_.

We maintain a cryptography-dev_ mailing list for both user and development discussions.

You can also join #pyca on irc.libera.chat to ask questions or get involved.

Release Information

25.0.0 (2025-01-12)

Backward-incompatible changes: ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Deprecations: ^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Changes: ^^^^^^^^

Corrected type annotations on Context.set_alpn_select_callback, Context.set_session_cache_mode, Context.set_options, Context.set_mode, X509.subject_name_hash, and X509Store.load_locations.
Deprecated APIs are now marked using warnings.deprecated. mypy will emit deprecation notices for them when used with --enable-error-code deprecated.

24.3.0 (2024-11-27)

Backward-incompatible changes: ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Removed the deprecated OpenSSL.crypto.CRL, OpenSSL.crypto.Revoked, OpenSSL.crypto.dump_crl, and OpenSSL.crypto.load_crl. cryptography.x509's CRL functionality should be used instead.
Removed the deprecated OpenSSL.crypto.sign and OpenSSL.crypto.verify. cryptography.hazmat.primitives.asymmetric's signature APIs should be used instead.

Deprecations: ^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Deprecated OpenSSL.rand - callers should use os.urandom() instead.
Deprecated add_extensions and get_extensions on OpenSSL.crypto.X509Req and OpenSSL.crypto.X509. These should have been deprecated at the same time X509Extension was. Users should use pyca/cryptography's X.509 APIs instead.
Deprecated OpenSSL.crypto.get_elliptic_curves and OpenSSL.crypto.get_elliptic_curve, as well as passing the reult of them to OpenSSL.SSL.Context.set_tmp_ecdh, users should instead pass curves from cryptography.
Deprecated passing X509 objects to OpenSSL.SSL.Context.use_certificate, OpenSSL.SSL.Connection.use_certificate, OpenSSL.SSL.Context.add_extra_chain_cert, and OpenSSL.SSL.Context.add_client_ca, users should instead pass cryptography.x509.Certificate instances. This is in preparation for deprecating pyOpenSSL's X509 entirely.
Deprecated passing PKey objects to OpenSSL.SSL.Context.use_privatekey and OpenSSL.SSL.Connection.use_privatekey, users should instead pass cryptography priate key instances. This is in preparation for deprecating pyOpenSSL's PKey entirely.

Changes: ^^^^^^^^

cryptography maximum version has been increased to 44.0.x.
OpenSSL.SSL.Connection.get_certificate, OpenSSL.SSL.Connection.get_peer_certificate, OpenSSL.SSL.Connection.get_peer_cert_chain, and OpenSSL.SSL.Connection.get_verified_chain now take an as_cryptography keyword-argument. When True is passed then cryptography.x509.Certificate are returned, instead of OpenSSL.crypto.X509. In the future, passing False (the default) will be deprecated.
