Description

The New-SelfSignedCertificate cmdlet creates a self-signed certificate for testing purposes. Using the CloneCert parameter, a test certificate can be created based on an existing certificate with all settings copied from the original certificate except for the public key. The cmdlet creates a new key of the same algorithm and length.

Delegation may be required when using this cmdlet with Windows PowerShell remoting and changing user configuration.

Examples

EXAMPLE 1

$params = @{
    DnsName = 'www.fabrikam.com', 'www.contoso.com'
    CertStoreLocation = 'Cert:\LocalMachine\My'
}
New-SelfSignedCertificate @params

This example creates a self-signed SSL server certificate in the computer MY store with the subject alternative names www.fabrikam.com and www.contoso.com and the Subject and Issuer name set to www.fabrikam.com.

EXAMPLE 2

Set-Location -Path 'Cert:\LocalMachine\My'
PS Cert:\LocalMachine\My> $OldCert = (Get-ChildItem -Path E42DBC3B3F2771990A9B3E35D0C3C422779DACD7)
PS Cert:\LocalMachine\My> New-SelfSignedCertificate -CloneCert $OldCert

This example creates a copy of the certificate specified by the CloneCert parameter and puts it in the computer MY store.

EXAMPLE 3

$params = @{
    Type = 'Custom'
    Subject = 'E=patti.fuller@contoso.com,CN=Patti Fuller'
    TextExtension = @(
        '2.5.29.37={text}1.3.6.1.5.5.7.3.4',
        '2.5.29.17={text}email=patti.fuller@contoso.com&upn=pattifuller@contoso.com' )
    KeyAlgorithm = 'RSA'
    KeyLength = 2048
    SmimeCapabilities = $true
    CertStoreLocation = 'Cert:\CurrentUser\My'
}
New-SelfSignedCertificate @params

This example creates a self-signed S/MIME certificate in the user MY store. The certificate uses the default provider, which is the Microsoft Software Key Storage Provider. The certificate uses an RSA asymmetric key with a key size of 2048 bits. This certificate has the subject alternative names of patti.fuller@contoso.com as RFC822 and pattifuller@contoso.com as Principal Name.

This command does not specify the NotAfter parameter. Therefore, the certificate expires in one year.

EXAMPLE 4

    Type = 'Custom'
    Subject = 'CN=Patti Fuller,OU=UserAccounts,DC=corp,DC=contoso,DC=com'
    TextExtension = @(

    KeyAlgorithm = 'RSA'
    KeyLength = 2048
    CertStoreLocation = 'Cert:\CurrentUser\My'
}
New-SelfSignedCertificate @params

This example creates a self-signed client authentication certificate in the user MY store. The certificate uses the default provider, which is the Microsoft Software Key Storage Provider. The certificate uses an RSA asymmetric key with a key size of 2048 bits. The certificate has a subject alternative name of pattifuller@contoso.com.

The certificate expires in one year.

}
New-SelfSignedCertificate @params

This example creates a self-signed client authentication certificate in the user MY store. The certificate uses the default provider, which is the Microsoft Software Key Storage Provider. The certificate uses an elliptic curve asymmetric key and the curve parameters nist256, which creates a 256-bit key. The subject alternative name is pattifuller@contoso.com.

The certificate expires in one year.

}
New-SelfSignedCertificate @params

This example creates a self-signed client authentication certificate in the user MY store. The certificate uses the Microsoft Platform Crypto Provider. This provider uses the Trusted Platform Module (TPM) of the device to create the asymmetric key. The certificate uses an RSA asymmetric key with a key size of 2048 bits. The key is not exportable. The subject alternative name is pattifuller@contoso.com. The certificate expires in one year.

}
New-SelfSignedCertificate @params

This example creates a self-signed S/MIME certificate in the user MY store. The certificate uses the default provider, which is the Microsoft Software Key Storage Provider. The certificate uses an RSA asymmetric key with a key size of 2048 bits. This certificate has the subject alternative names of patti.fuller@contoso.com and pattifuller@contoso.com both as RFC822.

This command does not specify the NotAfter parameter. Therefore, the certificate expires in one year.

EXAMPLE 9

Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-CertStoreLocation

Specifies the certificate store in which to store the new certificate. If the current path is Cert:\CurrentUser or Cert:\CurrentUser\My, the default store is Cert:\CurrentUser\My. If the current path is Cert:\LocalMachine or Cert:\LocalMachine\My, the default store is Cert:\LocalMachine\My.

Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-CloneCert

Identifies the certificate to copy when creating a new certificate. The certificate being cloned can be identified by an X509 certificate or the file path in the certificate provider. When this parameter is used, all fields and extensions of the certificate will be inherited except the NotAfter and NotBefore fields and the public key. A new key of the same algorithm and length will be created.

{oid}={text}{String}, where {oid} is the object identifier of the extension and {String} is a value that you provide. {String} must contain a textual representation of the extension value in a format specific to each object ID. When {String} is processed, it will be encoded into an ASN.1 extension value before being placed into the new certificate as an extension.

To specify that an extension is critical, insert {critical} immediately following {oid}= in any of the previous cases.

The object identifiers of some common extensions are as follows:

  • Application Policy: 1.3.6.1.4.1.311.21.10
  • Application Policy Mappings: 1.3.6.1.4.1.311.21.11

  • GUID: A globally unique ID, such as this example: f7c3ac41-b8ce-4fb4-aa58-3d1dc0e36b39
  • Notice: Text notice
  • OID: Object identifier in dotted decimal notation, such as this example: 1.2.3.4.5
  • URL: The URL of a host, such as this example: http://computer07.contoso.com

To specify an Application Policy extension, specify the first object identifier, followed by zero or more other {token}={value} entries. These entries are subordinate to the preceding object identifier. Specify subsequent object identifiers, each followed by its subordinate {token}={value} entries.

Application Policy Mappings extension example: 1.3.6.1.4.1.311.21.11={text}oid={oid}&oid={oid}...

Certificate Policies extension example: 2.5.29.32={text}{token}={value}&{token}={value}...

Name Constraints extension example: 2.5.29.30={text}subtree=include&{token}={value}&{token}={value}&subtree=exclude&{token}={value}...

A Name Constraints extension can have Subtree values of Include and Exclude to specify included and excluded names.

You can specify the following tokens in a Name Constraints extension:
