Programmatically Install Certificate into Mozilla

问题:

Is there a way to programmatically install a certificate into mozilla? We're trying to script everything to eliminate deviations in environment so installing it by hand through mozilla preferences does not work for our needs. I assume theres a way to do it with certutil, but I am not sure of Mozilla's internals, etc.

回答1:

The easiest way is to import the certificate into a sample firefox-profile and then copy the cert8.db to the users you want equip with the certificate.

First import the certificate by hand into the firefox profile of the sample-user. Then copy

  • /home/${USER}/.mozilla/firefox/${randomalphanum}.default/cert8.db (Linux/Unix)

  • %userprofile%\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\%randomalphanum%.default\cert8.db (Windows)

into the users firefox-profiles. That's it. If you want to make sure, that new users get the certificate automatically, copy cert8.db to:

  • /etc/firefox-3.0/profile (Linux/Unix)

  • %programfiles%\firefox-installation-folder\defaults\profile (Windows)



回答2:

Here is an alternative way that doesn't override the existing certificates: [bash fragment for linux systems]

certificateFile="MyCa.cert.pem" certificateName="MyCA Name"  for certDB in $(find  ~/.mozilla* ~/.thunderbird -name "cert8.db") do   certDir=$(dirname ${certDB});   #log "mozilla certificate" "install '${certificateName}' in ${certDir}"   certutil -A -n "${certificateName}" -t "TCu,Cuw,Tuw" -i ${certificateFile} -d ${certDir} done 

You may find certutil in the libnss3-tools package (debian/ubuntu).

Just wanted to add to an old thread to hopefully aid other people. I needed programmatically add a cert to the firefox database using a GPO, this was how I did it for Windows

1, First download and unzip the precompiled firefox NSS nss-3.13.5-nspr-4.9.1-compiled-x86.zip

2, Add the cert manually to firefox Options-->Advanced--Certificates-->Authorities-->Import

3, from the downloaded NSS package, run

certutil -L -d c:\users\[username]\appdata\roaming\mozilla\firefox\[profile].default     

4, The above query will show you the certificate name and Trust Attributes e.g.

my company Ltd                                CT,C,C     

5, Delete the certificate in step 2. Options-->Advanced--Certificates-->Authorities-->Delete

6, Create a powershell script using the information from step 4 as follows. This script will get the users profile path and add the certificate. This only works if the user has one firefox profile (need somehow to retrieve the users firefox folder profile name)

#Script adds Radius Certificate to independent Firefox certificate store since the browser does not use the Windows built in certificate store       #Get Firefox profile cert8.db file from users windows profile path $ProfilePath = "C:\Users\" + $env:username + "\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\" $ProfilePath = $ProfilePath + (Get-ChildItem $ProfilePath | ForEach-Object { $_.Name }).ToString()  #Update firefox cert8.db file with Radius Certificate certutil -A -n "UK my company" -t "CT,C,C" -i CertNameToAdd.crt -d $ProfilePath     

7, Create GPO as a User Configuration to run the PowerShell script

Hope that helps save someone time

On Windows 7 with Firefox 10, the cert8.db file is stored at %userprofile%\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\########.default\cert8.db. If you are an administrator, you can probably write a simple WMI application to copy the file to the User's respective folder.

Also, a solution that worked for me from http://www.appdeploy.com/messageboards/tm.asp?m=52532&mpage=1&key=&#52532

  1. Copied CERTUTIL.EXE from the NSS zip file ( http://www.mozilla.org/projects/security/pki/nss/tools/ ) to C:\Temp\CertImport (I also placed the certificates I want to import there)

  2. Copied all the dll's from the NSS zip file to C\:Windows\System32

  3. Created a BAT file in %Appdata%\mozilla\firefox\profiles with this script...

    Set FFProfdir=%Appdata%\mozilla\firefox\profiles  Set CERTDIR=C:\Temp\CertImport  DIR /A:D /B > "%Temp%\FFProfile.txt"  FOR /F "tokens=*" %%i in (%Temp%\FFProfile.txt) do (  CD /d "%FFProfDir%\%%i"  COPY cert8.db cert8.db.orig /y  For %%x in ("%CertDir%\Cert1.crt") do "%Certdir%\certutil.exe" -A -n "Cert1" -i "%%x" -t "TCu,TCu,TCu" -d .  For %%x in ("%CertDir%\Cert2.crt") do "%Certdir%\certutil.exe" -A -n "Cert2" -i "%%x" -t "TCu,TCu,TCu" -d .  )  DEL /f /q "%Temp%\FFProfile.txt"  
  4. Executed the BAT file with good results.

I had a similar issue on a client site where the client required a authority certificate to be installed automatically for 2000+ windows users.

I created the following .vbs script to import the certificate into the current logged on users firefox cert store.

The script needs to be put in the directory containing a working copy of certutil.exe (the nss version) but programatically determines the firefox profiles location.

Option Explicit  On error resume next  Const DEBUGGING              = true const SCRIPT_VERSION        = 0.1 Const EVENTLOG_WARNING      = 2 Const CERTUTIL_EXCUTABLE    = "certutil.exe" Const ForReading = 1   Dim strCertDirPath, strCertutil, files, slashPosition, dotPosition, strCmd, message Dim file, filename, filePath, fileExtension  Dim WshShell            : Set WshShell            = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell") Dim objFilesystem      : Set objFilesystem    = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")  Dim certificates        : Set certificates      = CreateObject("Scripting.Dictionary") Dim objCertDir Dim UserFirefoxDBDir Dim UserFirefoxDir Dim vAPPDATA Dim objINIFile Dim strNextLine,Tmppath,intLineFinder, NickName  vAPPDATA = WshShell.ExpandEnvironmentStrings("%APPDATA%")  strCertDirPath    = WshShell.CurrentDirectory strCertutil      = strCertDirPath & "\" & CERTUTIL_EXCUTABLE UserFirefoxDir = vAPPDATA & "\Mozilla\Firefox" NickName = "Websense Proxy Cert"   Set objINIFile = objFilesystem.OpenTextFile( UserFireFoxDir & "\profiles.ini", ForReading)  Do Until objINIFile.AtEndOfStream     strNextLine = objINIFile.Readline      intLineFinder = InStr(strNextLine, "Path=")     If intLineFinder <> 0 Then         Tmppath = Split(strNextLine,"=")         UserFirefoxDBDir = UserFirefoxDir & "\" & replace(Tmppath(1),"/","\")      End If   Loop objINIFile.Close  'output UserFirefoxDBDir  If objFilesystem.FolderExists(strCertDirPath) And objFilesystem.FileExists(strCertutil) Then     Set objCertDir = objFilesystem.GetFolder(strCertDirPath)     Set files = objCertDir.Files      For each file in files         slashPosition = InStrRev(file, "\")         dotPosition  = InStrRev(file, ".")         fileExtension = Mid(file, dotPosition + 1)         filename      = Mid(file, slashPosition + 1, dotPosition - slashPosition - 1)          If LCase(fileExtension) = "cer" Then                     strCmd = chr(34) & strCertutil & chr(34) &" -A -a -n " & chr(34) & NickName & chr(34) & " -i " & chr(34) & file & chr(34) & " -t " & chr(34) & "TCu,TCu,TCu" & chr(34) & " -d " & chr(34) & UserFirefoxDBDir & chr(34)             'output(strCmd)             WshShell.Exec(strCmd)         End If             Next             WshShell.LogEvent EVENTLOG_WARNING, "Script: " & WScript.ScriptFullName & " - version:" & SCRIPT_VERSION & vbCrLf & vbCrLf & message End If  function output(message)     If DEBUGGING Then         Wscript.echo message     End if End function  Set WshShell  = Nothing Set objFilesystem = Nothing

I was trying to achieve the same thing in Powershell and wrote a script to perform various functions that can be interactively selected. Of course, it's fairly easy to modify the script to automate certain things instead of provide options.

I'm an Infrastructure guy rather than a coder/programmer, so apologies if it's a bit cumbersome (but it does work!!).

Firefox now (since 58) uses a SQLite database cert9.db instead of legacy cert8.db. I have made a fix to a solution presented here to make it work with new versions of Firefox:

certificateFile="MyCa.cert.pem" certificateName="MyCA Name"  for certDB in $(find  ~/.mozilla* ~/.thunderbird -name "cert9.db") do   certDir=$(dirname ${certDB});   #log "mozilla certificate" "install '${certificateName}' in ${certDir}"   certutil -A -n "${certificateName}" -t "TCu,Cuw,Tuw" -i ${certificateFile} -d sql:${certDir} done
