A simple layer for interacting with PKCS #11 / PKCS11 / CryptoKI for Node in TypeScript

PKCS #11 (also known as CryptoKI or PKCS11) is the standard interface for interacting with hardware crypto devices such as Smart Cards and Hardware Security Modules (HSMs). It wraps the library closely, but uses attempts to look like 'node.crypto' where it makes sense.

It has been tested with :

We have also created a basic CLI for interacting with PKCS#11 devices based on this library we call graphene-cli.

NOTE: For testing purposes it may be easier to work with SoftHSM2 which is a software implementation of PKCS#11 based on OpenSSL or Botan.

var graphene = require("graphene-pk11");
var Module = graphene.Module;

var mod = Module.load("/usr/local/lib/softhsm/libsofthsm2.so", "SoftHSM");

mod.initialize();

var session = mod.getSlots(0).open();
session.login("password");

// Get a number of private key objects on token
console.log(session.find({class: graphene.ObjectClass.PRIVATE_KEY}).length);

session.logout();
mod.finalize();

Use npm command to publish graphene-pk11 module

> npm run pub

Suitability

At this time this solution should be considered suitable for research and experimentation, further code and security review is needed before utilization in a production application.

Bug Reporting

Please report bugs either as pull requests or as issues in the issue tracker. Graphene has a full disclosure vulnerability policy. Please do NOT attempt to report any security vulnerability in this code privately to anybody.

TODO

  • Add tests to the library
  • Add additional capabilities to CLI (device initialization, file signing, file encryption, etc)
