Fingerprints OpenSSL releases are signed with PGP/GnuPG keys. You can find the signatures in separate files in the same location you find the distributions themselves. The normal file name is the same as the distribution file, with '.asc' added. For example, the signature for the distribution of OpenSSL 1.0.1h, openssl-1.0.1h.tar.gz, is found in the file openssl-1.0.1h.tar.gz.asc. The following is the list of fingerprints for the keys that are currently in use to sign OpenSSL distributions: pub 1024D/F709453B 2003-10-20 Key fingerprint = C4CA B749 C34F 7F4C C04F DAC9 A7AF 9E78 F709 453B uid Richard Levitte uid Richard Levitte uid Richard Levitte pub 2048R/F295C759 1998-12-13 Key fingerprint = D0 5D 8C 61 6E 27 E6 60 41 EC B1 B8 D5 7E E5 97 uid Dr S N Henson pub 4096R/FA40E9E2 2005-03-19 Key fingerprint = 6260 5AA4 334A F9F0 DDE5 D349 D357 7507 FA40 E9E2 uid Dr Stephen Henson uid Dr Stephen Henson uid Dr Stephen N Henson sub 4096R/8811F530 2005-03-19 pub 1024R/49A563D9 1997-02-24 Key fingerprint = 7B 79 19 FA 71 6B 87 25 0E 77 21 E5 52 D9 83 BF uid Mark Cox uid Mark Cox uid Mark Cox pub 1024R/9C58A66D 1997-04-03 Key fingerprint = 13 D0 B8 9D 37 30 C3 ED AC 9C 24 7D 45 8C 17 67 uid jaenicke@openssl.org uid Lutz Jaenicke pub 1024D/2118CF83 1998-07-13 Key fingerprint = 7656 55DE 62E3 96FF 2587 EB6C 4F6D E156 2118 CF83 uid Ben Laurie uid Ben Laurie uid Ben Laurie sub 4096g/1F5143E7 1998-07-13 pub 1024R/5A6A9B85 1994-03-22 Key fingerprint = C7 AC 7E AD 56 6A 65 EC F6 16 66 83 7E 86 68 28 uid Bodo Moeller <2005@bmoeller.de> uid Bodo Moeller <2003@bmoeller.de> uid Bodo Moeller <2004@bmoeller.de> uid Bodo Moeller uid Bodo Moeller uid Bodo Moeller uid Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de> uid Bodo Moeller uid Bodo Moeller <3moeller@rzdspc5.informatik.uni-hamburg.de> pub 2048R/0E604491 2013-04-30 Key fingerprint = 8657 ABB2 60F0 56B1 E519 0839 D9C4 D26D 0E60 4491 uid Matt Caswell
