# OpenSC Manual Pages: Section 5

## Name

opensc.conf — configuration file for OpenSC

## Description

OpenSC obtains configuration data from the following sources in the following order

1. command-line options

2. environment variables

3. Windows registry key in `HKEY_CURRENT_USER` (if available)

4. Windows registry key in `HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE` (if available)

5. system-wide configuration file (`/usr/etc/opensc.conf`)

The configuration file, `opensc.conf`, is composed of `block`s, which, in general, have the following format:

    key [, name...] {
    	block_contents
    }

`block_contents` is one or more `block_item`s where a `block_item` is one of

- # `comment string`

- `key` [, `name`...] = `value`;

- `block`

At the root level, `opensc.conf` should contain one or more application specific configuration blocks:

    app application {
    	block_contents
    }

`application` specifies one of:

- `default`: The fall-back configuration block for all applications

- `opensc-pkcs11`: Configuration block for the PKCS#11 module (`opensc-pkcs11.so`)

- `onepin-opensc-pkcs11`: Configuration block for the PKCS#11 one-PIN-module (`onepin-opensc-pkcs11.so`)

- `cardmod`: Configuration block for Windows' minidriver (`opensc-minidriver.dll`)

- `tokend`: Configuration block for macOS' tokend (OpenSC.tokend)

- `cardos-tool`, `cryptoflex-tool`, `dnie-tool`, `egk-tool`, `eidenv`, `gids-tool`, `iasecc-tool`, `netkey-tool`, `npa-tool`, `openpgp-tool`, `opensc-asn1`, `opensc-explorer`, `opensc-notify`, `opensc-tool`, `piv-tool`, `pkcs11-tool`, `pkcs15-crypt`, `pkcs15-init`, `pkcs15-tool`, `sc-hsm-tool`, `westcos-tool`: Configuration block for OpenSC tools

## Configuration Options

`debug = `num`;`

  Amount of debug info to print (Default: `0`). A greater value means more debug info.

  The environment variable `OPENSC_DEBUG` overwrites this setting.

`debug_file = `filename`;`

  The file to which debug output will be written (Default: `stderr`). Special values `stdout` and `stderr` are recognized.

`profile_dir = `filename`;`

  PKCS#15 initialization/personalization profiles directory for pkcs15-init(1). (Default: `/usr/share/opensc`).

  If this configuration value is not found on Windows, the registry key `Software\OpenSC Project\OpenSC\ProfileDir` is checked.

`disable_colors = `bool`;`

  Disable colors of log messages (Default: `false` if attached to a console, `true` otherwise).

`disable_popups = `bool`;`

  Disable pop-ups of built-in GUI (Default: `false`).

`enable_default_driver = `bool`;`

  Enable default card driver (Default: `false`). Default card driver is explicitly enabled for opensc-explorer(1). and opensc-tool(1).

`card_drivers = `name`... ;`

  Allowlist of card drivers to load at start-up. The special value `internal` (the default) will load all statically linked drivers.

  If an unknown (i.e. not internal or old) driver is supplied, a separate configuration block has to be written for the driver. A special value `old` will load all statically linked drivers that may be removed in the future.

  The list of supported card driver names can be retrieved from the output of opensc-tool --list-drivers.

  The environment variable `OPENSC_DRIVER` overwrites this setting.

`ignored_readers = `name`... ;`

  List of readers to ignore (Default: empty). If any of the comma separated strings listed is matched in a reader name (case sensitive, partial matching possible), the reader is ignored by OpenSC. Use opensc-tool --list-readers to see all currently connected readers.

`reader_driver `name` { `block_contents` }`

  Configuration of the smart card reader driver where `name` is one of:

  - `ctapi`: See the section called “Configuration of CT-API Readers”

  - `openct`: See the section called “Configuration of OpenCT Readers”

  - `cryptotokenkit`: Configuration block for CryptoTokenKit readers

  See the section called “Configuration of Smart Card Reader Driver”.

`card_driver `name` { `block_contents` }`

  Configuration of the card driver where `name` is one of:

  In addition to the built-in list of known cards in the card driver, you can configure a new card for the driver using the `card_atr` block.

  For details see the section called “Configuration based on ATR”.

`disable_hw_pkcs1_padding = `value`;`

  Disabling PKCS#1 v1.5 padding in HW when card supports doing raw RSA operations. Known parameters:

  - `no`: PKCS#1 v1.5 padding is enabled in HW when card supports it.

  - `sign`: PKCS#1 v1.5 padding is disabled only for signatures (PKCS#1 v1.5 type 1).

  - `decipher`: PKCS#1 v1.5 padding is disabled only for decryption (PKCS#1 v1.5 type 2).

  - `both`: PKCS#1 v1.5 padding is disabled both for signatures and decryption (PKCS#1 v1.5 type 1 and 2).

  `flags = `value`;`

    Secure messaging type specific flags.

  `kmc = `hexstring`;`

    Default KMC of the GP Card Manager for the Oberthur's Java cards.

  `ifd_serial = `hexstring`;`
  `keyset[_`aid`]_`num`_enc = `value`;` `keyset[_`aid`]_`num`_mac = `value`;`

    Keyset values from IAM profiles of the Gemalto IAS/ECC cards with an optional application identifier

`framework `name` { `block_contents` }`

  Internal configuration options where `name` is one of:

### Configuration of Smart Card Reader Driver

#### Configuration Options for all Reader Drivers

`max_send_size = `num`;` `max_recv_size = `num`;`

  Limit command and response sizes (Default: `max_send_size` = `255`, `max_recv_size` = `256`) . Some Readers don't propagate their transceive capabilities correctly. max_send_size and max_recv_size allow setting the limits manually, for example to enable extended length capabilities.

`enable_escape `bool`;`

  Detect reader capabilities with escape commands (wrapped APDUs with CLA=0xFF as defined by PC/SC pt. 3 and BSI TR-03119, e.g. for getting the UID, escaped PIN commands and the reader's firmware version, Default: `false`)

#### Configuration of CT-API Readers

`module `filename` { ports = `nums`; }`

  Load the specified CT-API module with the specified number of ports.

#### Configuration of PC/SC Readers

`connect_exclusive = `bool`;`

  Connect to reader in exclusive mode (Default: `false`)? This option has no effect in Windows' minidriver.

`disconnect_action = `action`;`

  What to do when disconnecting from a card (SCardDisconnect). Valid values are `leave`, `reset`, `unpower` (Default: `leave`). This option has no effect in Windows' minidriver.

`transaction_end_action = `action`;`

  What to do at the end of a transaction (SCardEndTransaction). Valid values are `leave`, `reset`, `unpower` (Default: `leave`). This option has no effect in Windows' minidriver.

`reconnect_action = `action`;`

  What to do when reconnection to a card (SCardReconnect). Valid values are `leave`, `reset`, `unpower` (Default: `leave`). This option has no effect in Windows' minidriver.

`enable_pinpad = `bool`;`

  Enable pinpad if detected (PC/SC v2.0.2 Part 10, Default: `true`)

`fixed_pinlength = `num`;`

  Some pinpad readers can only handle one exact length of the PIN. `fixed_pinlength` sets this value so that OpenSC expands the padding to this length (Default: `0`, i.e. not fixed).

`provider_library = `filename`;`

  Use specific PC/SC provider (Default: `libpcsclite.so.1`).

#### Configuration of OpenCT Readers

`readers = `num`;`

  Virtual readers to allocate (Default: `2`).

### Configuration Options for MyEID Card

`disable_hw_pkcs1_padding = `bool`;`

  The MyEID card can internally encapsulate the data (hash code) into a DigestInfo ASN.1 structure according to the selected hash algorithm (currently only for SHA1). DigestInfo is padded to RSA key modulus length according to PKCS#1 v1.5, block type 01h. Size of the DigestInfo must not exceed 40% of the RSA key modulus length. If this limit is unsatisfactory (for example someone needs RSA 1024 with SHA512), the user can disable this feature. In this case, the card driver will do everything necessary before sending the data (hash code) to the card.

  PKCS#1 v1.5 padding in HW can be globally disabled by option `disable_hw_pkcs1_padding`. When the global option is used to disable padding, the padding will be disabled even though the MyEID-specific option does not turn it off.

### Configuration Options for German ID Card

`can = `value`;`

  German ID card requires the CAN to be verified before QES PIN. This, however, is not part of the PKCS#15 profile of the card. So for verifying the QES PIN we actually need both. The CAN may be given here. If the CAN is not given here, it will be prompted on the command line or on the reader (depending on the reader's capabilities).

`st_dv_certificate = `filename`;` `st_certificate = `filename`;` `st_key = `filename`;`

  QES is only possible with a Comfort Reader (CAT-K), which holds a cryptographic key to authenticate itself as signature terminal (ST). We usually will use the reader's capability to sign the data. However, during development you may specify soft certificates and keys for a ST.

  An example PKI can be found in the example data for the German ID card emulator

### Configuration Options for DNIe

`user_consent_enabled = `bool`;`

  Configure the warning message when performing a signature operation with the DNIe. Only used if compiled with `--enable-dnie-ui`

`user_consent_app = `filename`;`

  Specify the pinentry application to use if warning is configured to be displayed using pinentry (Default: `/usr/bin/pinentry`). Only used if compiled with `--enable-dnie-ui`

### Configuration Options for Polish eID Card

`can = `value`;`

  CAN (Card Access Number – 6 digit number printed on the right bottom corner of the front side of the document) is required to establish connection with the card. It might be overwritten by `EDO_CAN` environment variable. Currently, it is not possible to set it in any other way.

### Configuration based on ATR

`atrmask = `hexstring`;`

  The mask is logically AND'd with an card ATR prior to comparison with the ATR reference value above. Using this mask allows identifying and configuring multiple ATRs as the same card model.

`driver = `name`;`

  When enabled, overrides all possible settings from the card drivers built-in card configuration list.

`name = `name`;`

  Set card name for card drivers that allows it.

`type = `num`;`

  Allows setting the exact type of the card internally used by the card driver. Allowed values can be found in the source code of `cards.h`.

`flags = `value`... ;`

  Card flags as an hex value. Multiple values are OR'd together. Depending on card driver, this allows fine-tuning the capabilities in the card driver for your card.

  Optionally, some known parameters can be specified as strings:

  - `rng`: On-board random number source

  - `keep_alive`: Request the card driver to send a "keep alive" command before each transaction to make sure that the required applet is still selected.

`pkcs15emu = `name`;`

  When using PKCS#15 emulation, force the emulation driver for specific cards. Required for external drivers, but can be used with built-in drivers, too.

`force_protocol = `value`;`

  Force protocol selection for specific cards. Known parameters:

  - `t0`

  - `t1`

  - `raw`

`read_only = `bool`;`

  Mark card as read/only card in PKCS#11/Minidriver/BaseCSP interface (Default: `false`).

`md_supports_X509_enrollment = `bool`;`

  Indicate X509 enrollment support at Minidriver/BaseCSP interface (Default: `false`).

`md_guid_as_id = `bool`;`

  Use the GUID generated for the key as id in the PKCS#15 structure (Default: `false`, i.e. auto generated)

`md_guid_as_label = `bool`;`

  Use the GUID generated for the key as label in the PKCS#15 structure (Default: `false`, i.e. no label set).

`md_supports_container_key_gen = `bool`;`

  Card allows generating key pairs on the card (Default: `false`).

`md_supports_container_key_import = `bool`;`

  Card allows importing private keys (Default: `false`).

`md_pinpad_dlg_title = `value`;`

  Window title of the PIN pad dialog (Default: `"Windows Security"`).

`md_pinpad_dlg_icon = `filename`;`

  Filename of the icon for the PIN pad dialog; use `""` for no icon (Default: Built-in smart card icon).

`md_pinpad_dlg_main = `value`;`

  Main instruction of the PIN pad dialog (Default: `"OpenSC Smart Card Provider"`).

`md_pinpad_dlg_content_user = `value`;`

  Content of the PIN pad dialog for role "user" (Default: `"Please enter your PIN on the PIN pad."`).

`md_pinpad_dlg_content_user_sign = `value`;`

  Content of the PIN pad dialog for role "user+signature" (Default: `"Please enter your digital signature PIN on the PIN pad."`).

`md_pinpad_dlg_content_admin = `value`;`

  Content of the PIN pad dialog for role "admin" (Default: `"Please enter your PIN to unblock the user PIN on the PIN pad."`)

`md_pinpad_dlg_expanded = `value`;`

  Expanded information of the PIN pad dialog (Default: `"This window will be closed automatically after the PIN has been submitted on the PIN pad (timeout typically after 30 seconds)."`)

`md_pinpad_dlg_enable_cancel = `bool`;`

  Allow the user to cancel the PIN pad dialog (Default: `false`). If this value is set to `true`, the user needs to click "OK" to start the PIN verification on the PIN pad. The user can choose the default behavior by enabling or disabling the checkbox of the dialog. The setting is saved by the program's full path (`program_path`) that uses OpenSC.

  The registry key `HKCU\Software\OpenSC Project\OpenSC\md_pinpad_dlg_enable_cancel\`program_path`` overwrites this setting with a `DWORD` set to either `1` (enabled) or `0` (disabled).

`md_pinpad_dlg_timeout = `num`;`

  Time in seconds for the progress bar of the PIN pad dialog to tick. `0` removes the progress bar (Default: `30`).

`notify_card_inserted = `value`;` `notify_card_inserted_text = `value`;`

  Notification title and text when card was inserted (Default: `"Smart card detected"`, ATR of the card).

`notify_card_removed = `value`;` `notify_card_removed_text = `value`;`

`notify_pin_good = `value`;` `notify_pin_good_text = `value`;`

  Notification title and text when PIN was verified (Default: `"PIN verified"`, `"Smart card is unlocked"`).

`notify_pin_bad = `value`;` `notify_pin_bad_text = `value`;`

  Notification title and text when PIN was wrong (Default: `"PIN not verified"`, `"Smart card is locked"`).

### Configuration of PKCS#15 Framework

`use_file_caching = `value`;`

  Whether to cache the card's files (e.g. certificates) on disk in `file_cache_dir`. Possible parameters:

  - `yes`: Cache all files (public and private).

  - `public`: Cache only public files.

  - `no`: File caching disabled.

  (Default: `public` for the following card drivers `atrust-acos`, `belpic`, `cac1`, `cac`, `coolkey`, `dnie`, `edo`, `esteid2018`, `flex`, `cyberflex`, `gemsafeV1`, `idprime`, `itacns`, `jpki`, `MaskTech`, `mcrd`, `MyEID`, `npa`, `nqapplet`, `tcos` and otherwise `no`).

  If caching is done by a system process, the cached files may be placed inaccessible from the user account. Use a globally readable and writable location if you wish to share the cached information. Note that the cached files may contain personal data such as name and mail address.

`file_cache_dir = `filename`;`

  Where to cache the card's files. The default values are:

  - ``$XDG_CACHE_HOME`/opensc/` (If `$XDG_CACHE_HOME` is defined)

  - ``$HOME`/.cache/opensc/` (Unix)

  - ``$USERPROFILE`\.eid-cache\` (Windows)

  If caching is done by a system process, the cached files may be placed inaccessible from a user account. Use a globally readable and writable location if you wish to share the cached information. Note that the cached files may contain personal data such as name and mail address.

`use_pin_caching = `bool`;`

  Use PIN caching (Default: `true`)?

`pin_cache_counter = `num`;`

  How many times to use a PIN from cache before re-authenticating it (Default: `10`)?

`pin_cache_ignore_user_consent = `bool`;`

  Older PKCS#11 applications not supporting `CKA_ALWAYS_AUTHENTICATE` may need to set this to get signatures to work with some cards (Default: `false`).

  It is recommended to enable also PIN caching using `use_pin_caching` option for OpenSC to be able to provide PIN for the card when needed.

`private_certificate = `value`;`

  How to handle a PIN-protected certificate. Known parameters:

  - `protect`: The certificate stays PIN-protected.

  - `declassify`: Allow reading the certificate without enforcing verification of the PIN.

  - `ignore`: Ignore PIN-protected certificates.

  (Default: `ignore` in Tokend, `protect` otherwise).

`enable_pkcs15_emulation = `bool`;`

  Enable pkcs15 emulation (Default: `true`).

`try_emulation_first = `bool`;`

  Prefer pkcs15 emulation code before the normal pkcs15 processing (Default: `no`). Some cards work in emu-only mode, and do not depend on this option.

`enable_builtin_emulation = `bool`;`

  Enable builtin emulators (Default: `true`).

`builtin_emulators = `emulators`;`

  List of the builtin pkcs15 emulators to test (Default: `internal`)

  Special value of `internal` will try all not disabled builtin pkcs15 emulators.

  Special value of `old` will try all disabled pkcs15 emulators.

`pkcs11_enable_InitToken = `bool`;`

  Enable initialization and card recognition (Default: `false`).

`emulate `name` { `block_contents` }`

  Configuration options for a PKCS#15 emulator where `name` is a short name for an external card driver.

  `module = `filename`;`

    For pkcs15 emulators loaded from an external shared library/DLL, you need to specify the path name of the module and customize the card_atr example above correctly.

  `function = `name`;`

    Get the init function name of the emulator (Default: `sc_pkcs15_init_func_ex`)

`application `hexstring` { `block_contents` }`

  Configuration of the on-card-application where `hexstring` is the application identifier (AID).

  `type = `name`;`

    Type of application where `name` is one of:

    - `generic`

    - `protected`

    Used to distinguish the common access application and application for which authentication to perform some operation cannot be obtained with the common procedures (ex. object creation protected by secure messaging). Used by PKCS#11 module configured to expose restricted number of slots. (for ex. configured to expose only User PIN slot, User and Sign PINs slots, ...)

  `model = `name`;`
  `disable = `bool`;`

    Do not expose application in PKCS#15 framework (Default: `false`)

### Configuration of Tokend

`score = `num`;`

  Score for OpenSC.tokend (Default: `300`). The tokend with the highest score shall be used.

### Configuration of PKCS#11

`max_virtual_slots = `num`;`

  Maximum Number of virtual slots (Default: `16`). If there are more slots than defined here, the remaining slots will be hidden from PKCS#11.

`slots_per_card = `num`;`

  Maximum number of slots per smart card (Default: `4`). If the card has fewer keys than defined here, the remaining number of slots will be empty.

`lock_login = `bool`;`

  By default, the OpenSC PKCS#11 module will not lock your card once you authenticate to the card via `C_Login` (Default: `false`). Thus the other users or other applications is not prevented from connecting to the card and perform crypto operations (which may be possible because you have already authenticated with the card). This setting is not very secure.

  Also, if your card is not locked, you can enconter problems due to limitation of the OpenSC framework, that still is not thoroughly tested in the multi threads environment.

  Your settings will be more secure if you choose to lock your card. Nevertheless this behavior is a known violation of PKCS#11 specification. Now once one application has started using your card with `C_Login`, no other application can use it, until the first is done and calls `C_Logout` or `C_Finalize`. In the case of many PKCS#11 application this does not happen until you exit the application.

  Thus it is impossible to use several smart card aware applications at the same time, e.g. you cannot run both Firefox and Thunderbird at the same time, if both are configured to use your smart card.

`atomic = `bool`;`

  By default, interacting with the OpenSC PKCS#11 module may change the state of the token, e.g. whether a user is logged in or not (Default: `false`).

  Thus other users or other applications may change or use the state of the token unknowingly. Other applications may create signatures abusing an existing login or they may logout unnoticed.

  With this setting enabled the login state of the token is tracked and cached (including the PIN). Every transaction is preceded by restoring the login state. After every transaction a logout is performed. This setting by default also enables `lock_login` to disable access for other applications during the atomic transactions.

  Please note that any PIN-pad should be disabled (see `enable_pinpad`), because the user would have to input his PIN for every transaction.

`init_sloppy = `bool`;`

  With this setting disabled, the OpenSC PKCS#11 module will initialize the slots available when the application calls `C_GetSlotList`. With this setting enabled, the slots will also get initialized when `C_GetSlotInfo` is called (Default: `true`).

  This setting is a workaround for Java which does not call `C_GetSlotList` when configured with a static `slot` instead of `slotListIndex`.

`user_pin_unblock_style = `mode`;`

  User PIN unblock style `mode` is one of:

  - `none` (Default): PIN unblock is not possible with PKCS#11 API

  - `set_pin_in_unlogged_session`: `C_SetPIN` in unlogged session: PUK is passed as the `OldPin` argument of the `C_SetPIN` call.

  - `set_pin_in_specific_context`: `C_SetPIN` in the `CKU_SPECIFIC_CONTEXT` logged session: PUK is passed as the `OldPin` argument of the `C_SetPIN` call.

  - `init_pin_in_so_session`: `C_InitPIN` in `CKU_SO` logged session: User PIN 'UNBLOCK' is protected by SOPIN. (PUK == SOPIN).

`create_puk_slot = `bool`;`

  Create slot for unblocking PIN with PUK (Default: `false`). This way PKCS#11 API can be used to login with PUK and change a PIN. May cause problems with some applications like Firefox and Thunderbird.

`create_slots_for_pins = `mode`... ;`

  Symbolic names of PINs for which slots are created where `mode` is a list of:

  - `all` (Default): All non-SO-PIN, non-unblocking PINs

  - `user`: The first global or first local PIN

  - `sign`: The second PIN (first local, second global or second local)

  Card can contain more then one PINs or more then one on-card application with its own PINs. Normally, to access all of them with the PKCS#11 API a slot has to be created for all of them. Many slots could be annoying for some of widely used application, like FireFox. This configuration parameter allows to select the PIN(s) for which PKCS#11 slot will be created.

  Only PINs initialised, non-SO-PIN, non-unblocking are associated with symbolic name.

  For the module to simulate the opensc-onepin module behavior the following option `create_slots_for_pins = "user";`

## Name

pkcs15-profile — format of profile for pkcs15-init

## Description

The pkcs15-init utility for PKCS #15 smart card personalization is controlled via profiles. When starting, it will read two such profiles at the moment, a generic application profile, and a card specific profile. The generic profile must be specified on the command line, while the card-specific file is selected based on the type of card detected.

The generic application profile defines general information about the card layout, such as the path of the application DF, various PKCS #15 files within that directory, and the access conditions on these files. It also defines general information about PIN, key and certificate objects. Currently, there is only one such generic profile, `pkcs15.profile`.

The card specific profile contains additional information required during card initialization, such as location of PIN files, key references etc. Profiles currently reside in `@pkgdatadir@`

## Syntax

This section should contain information about the profile syntax. Will add this soonishly.
