||
Verify image with the provided certificate chain(s) and identity parameters (intended for | ||
"bring your own PKI" use cases). | ||
* with a single certificate chain file - which may contain one or several intermediate | ||
certificates followed by the root CA certificate - use the `--certificate-chain` parameter: | ||
```shell | ||
$ cosign verify --certificate-chain chain.crt --certificate-oidc-issuer https://issuer.example.com --certificate-identity [email protected] user/demo | ||
``` | ||
* with a certificate bundle PEM file containing several CA roots (but without | ||
intermediate certificate), use the `--ca-roots` parameter: | ||
```shell | ||
$ cosign verify --ca-roots ca-roots.pem --certificate-oidc-issuer https://issuer.example.com --certificate-identity [email protected] user/demo | ||
``` | ||
|
||
The `--ca-roots` and `--certificate-chain` flags are mutually exclusive. | ||
|
||
Note that the hypothetical use case of "multiple chains with multiple CA roots and intermediate | ||
certificates" is not yet supported. There are plans to add the `--ca-intermediates` parameter | ||
(see [issue #3462](https://github.com/sigstore/cosign/issues/3462)). If you need this, | ||
please open an issue and mention it on the Sigstore #cosign Slack. | ||
