35=head1 DESCRIPTION
36
37This command processes CRL files in DER or PEM format.
38
39=head1 OPTIONS
40
41=over 4
42
43=item B<-help>
44
45Print out a usage message.
46
47=item B<-inform> B<DER>|B<PEM>
48
49The CRL input format; unspecified by default.
50See L<openssl-format-options(1)> for details.
51
52=item B<-outform> B<DER>|B<PEM>
53
54The CRL output format; the default is B<PEM>.
55See L<openssl-format-options(1)> for details.
56
57=item B<-key> I<filename>
58
59The private key to be used to sign the CRL.
60
61=item B<-keyform> B<DER>|B<PEM>|B<P12>
62
63The format of the private key file; unspecified by default.
64See L<openssl-format-options(1)> for details.
65
66=item B<-in> I<filename>
67
68This specifies the input filename to read from or standard input if this
69option is not specified.
70
71=item B<-out> I<filename>
72
73Specifies the output filename to write to or standard output by
74default.
75
76=item B<-gendelta> I<filename>
77
78Output a comparison of the main CRL and the one specified here.
79
80=item B<-badsig>
81
82Corrupt the signature before writing it; this can be useful
83for testing.
84
85=item B<-dateopt>
86
87Specify the date output format. Values are: rfc_822 and iso_8601.
88Defaults to rfc_822.
89
90=item B<-text>
91
92Print out the CRL in text form.
93
94=item B<-verify>
95
96Verify the signature in the CRL.
97
98This option is implicitly enabled if any of B<-CApath>, B<-CAfile>
99or B<-CAstore> is specified.
100
101=item B<-noout>
102
103Don't output the encoded version of the CRL.
104
105=item B<-fingerprint>
106
107Output the fingerprint of the CRL.
108
109=item B<-crlnumber>
110
111Output the number of the CRL.
112
113=item B<-hash>
114
115Output a hash of the issuer name. This can be use to lookup CRLs in
116a directory by issuer name.
117
118=item B<-hash_old>
119
120Outputs the "hash" of the CRL issuer name using the older algorithm
121as used by OpenSSL before version 1.0.0.
122
123=item B<-issuer>
124
125Output the issuer name.
126
127=item B<-lastupdate>
128
129Output the lastUpdate field.
130
131=item B<-nextupdate>
132
133Output the nextUpdate field.

143=head1 EXAMPLES
144
145Convert a CRL file from PEM to DER:
146
147 openssl crl -in crl.pem -outform DER -out crl.der
148
149Output the text form of a DER encoded certificate:
150
151 openssl crl -in crl.der -text -noout
152
153=head1 BUGS
154
155Ideally it should be possible to create a CRL using appropriate options
156and files too.
