Please help me with nginx configuration on Windows for use TLS connections based on PKCS#11 engine.
I have driver pkcs11 (C:\nCipher\nfast\toolkits\pkcs11\cknfast-64.dll) from provider.
My nginx.conf file looks like:
worker_processes 1;
events {
worker_connections 1024;
}
#nShield PKCS#11
ssl_engine pkcs11;
http {
...
server {
listen 8888;
server_name localhost;
return 301 https://$server_name$request_uri;
}
server {
listen 443 ssl;
listen [::]:443 ssl;
server_name localhost;
ssl_certificate C:/nginx-1.16.1/ssl/test_selfcert;
ssl_certificate_key "engine:pkcs11:pkcs11:token=ocs2;object=test_key";
ssl_session_cache shared:SSL:1m;
ssl_session_timeout 5m;
ssl_ciphers TLS13-CHACHA20-POLY1305-SHA256:TLS13-AES-128-GCM-SHA256:TLS13-AES-256-GCM-SHA384:ECDHE:!COMPLEMENTOFDEFAULT;
ssl_prefer_server_ciphers on;
ssl_protocols TLSv1 TLSv1.1 TLSv1.2 TLSv1.3;
location / {
proxy_pass http://localhost:9999/;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Port $server_port;
}
}
}
I tried to check this config and get error:
>nginx -t
nginx: [emerg] ENGINE_by_id("pkcs11") failed (SSL: error:25078067:DSO support routines:win32_load:could not load the shared library:filename(Z:\nginx\nginx-stab
le\objs.msvc8\lib\openssl-1.1.1c\openssl\lib\engines-1_1\pkcs11.dll) error:25070067:DSO support routines:DSO_load:could not load the shared library error:260B60

nginx: configuration file C:\nginx-1.16.1/conf/nginx.conf test failed
I think there is an error in my openssl configuration because I did not define the pkcs11 driver there. At the end of the default configuration C:\nCipher\nfast\lib\ssleay\openssl.cnf I added a block like:
...
openssl_conf = openssl_def
[openssl_def]
engines = engine_section
[engine_section]
chil = chil_section
[chil_section]
SO_PATH=c:\\Program Files (x86)\\nCipher\\nfast\\toolkits\\hwcrhk\\nfhwcrhk.dll
#added
[engine_section]
pkcs11 = pkcs11_section
[pkcs11_section]
engine_id = pkcs11
dynamic_path = "C:\\Program Files\\OpenSSLx64\\bin\\pkcs11openssl64x.dll"
MODULE_PATH = "C:\\nCipher\\nfast\\toolkits\\pkcs11\\cknfast-64.dll"
init = 0
...
But file pkcs11openssl64x.dll is NOT exist on my computer! In 'dynamic_path' param I tried to download and use files libpkcs11-helper-1.dll, onepin-opensc-pkcs11.dll, opensc_pkcs11.ddl , but all of them not working. When I tried to use this configuration without 'dynamic_path' param, i get error:

But I'm expecting the next:
> openssl engine -t -c pkcs11
(pkcs11) pkcs11 engine
[RSA, rsaEncryption, id-ecPublicKey]
[ available ]
Also no pkcs#11 driver are detected when outputting:
>openssl engine -t -c
(dynamic) Dynamic engine loading support
[ unavailable ]
(chil) CHIL hardware engine support
[RSA, DH, RAND]
[ available ]
Please help me to set the correct configuration for NGINX to work with TLS connection setup.
