filename] [-keyform DER|PEM|P12] [-dateopt] [-text] [-in filename]
[-out filename] [-gendelta filename] [-badsig] [-verify] [-noout]
[-hash] [-hash_old] [-fingerprint] [-crlnumber] [-issuer] [-lastupdate]
[-nextupdate] [-nameopt option] [-CAfile file] [-no-CAfile] [-CApath
dir] [-no-CApath] [-CAstore uri] [-no-CAstore] [-provider name]
[-provider-path path] [-propquery propq]
DESCRIPTION
This command processes CRL files in DER or PEM format.
OPTIONS
-help
Print out a usage message.
-inform DER|PEM
The CRL input format; unspecified by default. See
openssl-format-options(1) for details.
-outform DER|PEM
The CRL output format; the default is PEM. See
openssl-format-options(1) for details.
-key filename
The private key to be used to sign the CRL.
-keyform DER|PEM|P12
The format of the private key file; unspecified by default. See
openssl-format-options(1) for details.
-in filename
This specifies the input filename to read from or standard input if
this option is not specified.
-out filename
Specifies the output filename to write to or standard output by
default.
-gendelta filename
Output a comparison of the main CRL and the one specified here.
-badsig
Corrupt the signature before writing it; this can be useful for
testing.
-dateopt
Specify the date output format. Values are: rfc_822 and iso_8601.
Defaults to rfc_822.
-text
Print out the CRL in text form.
-verify
Verify the signature in the CRL. If the verification fails, the
program will immediately exit, i.e. further option processing (e.g.
-gendelta) is skipped.
This option is implicitly enabled if any of -CApath, -CAfile or
-CAstore is specified.
-noout
Don't output the encoded version of the CRL.
-fingerprint
Output the fingerprint of the CRL.
-crlnumber
Output the number of the CRL.
-hash
Output a hash of the issuer name. This can be use to lookup CRLs in
a directory by issuer name.
-hash_old
Outputs the "hash" of the CRL issuer name using the older algorithm
as used by OpenSSL before version 1.0.0.
-issuer
Output the issuer name.
-lastupdate
Output the lastUpdate field.
-nextupdate
Output the nextUpdate field.
-nameopt option
This specifies how the subject or issuer names are displayed. See
openssl-namedisplay-options(1) for details.
-CAfile file, -no-CAfile, -CApath dir, -no-CApath, -CAstore uri,
-no-CAstore
See "Trusted Certificate Options" in
openssl-verification-options(1) for details.
-provider name
-provider-path path
-propquery propq
See "Provider Options" in openssl(1), provider(7), and property(7).
EXAMPLES
Convert a CRL file from PEM to DER:
openssl crl -in crl.pem -outform DER -out crl.der
Output the text form of a DER encoded certificate:
openssl crl -in crl.der -text -noout
BUGS
Ideally it should be possible to create a CRL using appropriate options
and files too.

HISTORY
Since OpenSSL 3.3, the -verify option will exit with 1 on failure.
