Hello, I'm working with firefox 59.0.2 (64 bits) and trying to create a certificat with http://www.cacert.org. My certificate is correctly created and inserted in the firefox certificate database. I need to use this certificate with my private key in others software (Windows10, Chrome, Edge, Adobe Acrobat pro 9.5.5 and reader DC 18.2304,...) After export the certificate chains including the private, public and root keys PKCS#12 (.P12), I'm trying without success to import the certificate in windows10/certmgr because received a password error message. For information : Reimport the .P12 certificate into firefox certificate database correctly work. Import the .P12 certificate into Acrobat pro 9.5.5 correctly work and sign also work. openssl also work to convert .P12 file to pem then pem to .pfx resulting .pfx file then is correctly import to windows10/certmgr : This currently my only workaround solution.

openssl info on .P12 return :

===========

MAC:sha1 Iteration 1000000 PKCS7 Data Shrouded Keybag: pbeWithSHA1And3-KeyTripleDES-CBC, Iteration 1000000 PKCS7 Encrypted data: pbeWithSHA1And40BitRC2-CBC, Iteration 1000000 Certificate bag Certificate bag

openssl info on .Pfx return :

===========

MAC:sha1 Iteration 2048 PKCS7 Encrypted data: pbeWithSHA1And40BitRC2-CBC, Iteration 2048 Certificate bag Certificate bag PKCS7 Data Shrouded Keybag: pbeWithSHA1And3-KeyTripleDES-CBC, Iteration 2048

My questions : Why do I have to use openssl to convert my certificate to be able to import it to windows10/certmgr ? What is exactly firefox PKCS#12 export ciphers type ? Why Iteration = 1000000 for firefox export and 2048 for openssl output, could it be the culprit ? Is there other possible culprit ? (Order of openssl info out lines not the same) Is it possible to configure the firefox export to be compatible with windows10/certmgr ?
