I generated my CSR on an Amazon Linux system using this command



openssl req -new -sha256 -key ~/mymaindomain.com.ssl/mymaindomain.com.key -out ~/mymaindomain.com.ssl/mymaindomain.com.csr


I verified what I had done using



[davea@host mymaindomain.com.ssl]$ openssl req -noout -text -in ~/mymaindomain.com.ssl/mymaindomain.com.csr
Certificate Request:
 Data:
 Version: 0 (0x0)
 Subject: C=US, ST=NY, L=New York, O=Main Co, OU=SubCo, CN=mymaindomain.com
 Subject Public Key Info:
 Public Key Algorithm: rsaEncryption
 Public-Key: (2048 bit)


Before I submit this to a CA, I was curious if this will match "www.mymaindomain.com" and "abc.mymaindomain.com." I wanted to create a CSR that would match the "*.mymaindomain.com" expression but not quite sure if I did it right.

  • When it asked you for the common name, did you list it as *.mydomain.com or just .mydomain.com? If you have the wildcard listed as the common name, it should work. Doesn't look like your common name has a wildcard.

  • You didn't make it correctly, since there's no wildcard ( * ) appearing. Look with this example: openssl s_client -connect stackexchange.com:443 look at the CN . CN=*.stackexchange.com there's a * for wildcard. It wouldn't match stackexchange.com , but if you get the certificate and decode it with openssl x509 -noout -text you'll see all the SANs: DNS:*.stackexchange.com, DNS:stackoverflow.com, DNS:*.stackoverflow.com, [...] DNS:stackexchange.com . Now you know what to do. And yes adding SANs with openssl is a bit painful, but I'm sure there are already Q/A about this

  • Thanks. No I didn't make it with "*.mymaindomain.com" ... it was just "mymaindomain.com". These comments give me exactly the answer I was looking for.

How many registers does an x86_64 CPU actually have?

Image
Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP up vote 2 down vote favorite I am currently learning reverse engineering and am studying the flags register. I had in my mind that rflags was just another name for one of the 16 general purpose registers, for example rax or rbx . But it looks like rflags is actually an additional register. So that makes 17 registers in total... how many more could there be? I have spent at least an hour on this and found numerous different answers. The best answer so far is this, which says that there are 40 registers in total. 16 General Purpose Registers 2 Status Registers 6 Code Segment Registers 16 SSE Registers 8 FPU/MMX Registers But if I add that up, I get 48. Could anybody provide an official answer on how many registers an x86_64 CPU has (e.g. an Intel i7). Additionally, I have seen references to 'hardware' and 'architectural' registers. What are those registers and how many are there? register x86-64 share | improve this...
