Auto enter pass phrase in case of Python ssl Client/Server
- by rauch
I need to create Client/Server application to send files from clients to Server.
I use simple ssl sockets for that and authenticate with certificates.
 
ms = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
ssl_sock = ssl.wrap_socket(ms,
                           keyfile=".../newCA/my_client.key",
                           certfile=".../newCA/my_client.crt",
                           server_side=0,
                           cert_reqs=ssl.CERT_REQUIRED,
                           ca_certs=".../newCA/CA/my-ca.crt"
                           )
ssl_sock.connect((HOST, MPORT))
And Server side:
msock = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
        self.ssl_sock = ssl.wrap_socket(msock,
                           keyfile=".../newCA/my_server.key",
                           certfile=".../newCA/my_server.crt",
                           server_side=1,
                           cert_reqs=ssl.CERT_REQUIRED,
                           ca_certs=".../newCA/CA/my-ca.crt"
                           )
        self.ssl_sock.bind(('', self.PORT))
        self.ssl_sock.listen(self.QUEUE_MAX)
The problem is the following: when client tries to connect to Server, it requires Enter the pass phrase for private key for Both: for Server-side and Client-side.
In Java we need to set System Property: javax.net.ssl.keyStorePassword="" and it has to be used automatically, But how is it been used in Python? I can't enter pass phrase all time the client connects.
