DER Serialized Public Key Loader
Loads a public key from a DER-encoded byte string.
Source library: cryptography
Overview
This node loads a public key serialized in DER format. DER is a binary format commonly used in X.509 digital certificates and public key infrastructure (PKI) systems.
Parameters
- keyfile: The DER-encoded public key data, as a
BYTESLIKEobject.
Outputs
- loaded_key: The loaded public key object (
KEYOBJ), ready for use with verification nodes.
Additional Considerations
- DER public keys are commonly found in X.509 certificates. Always verify the certificate chain when loading public keys from untrusted sources.
