Script to check validity and expiration of TLS/SSL certificate on remote host. Supports: TLS SNI and STARTTLS for protocols like SMTP; internationalized domain names with Punycode(uses libidn); allowing self-signed certs as valid; JSON output; supports any additional s_client options.

May be used standalone or with Zabbix. See the "Zabbix integration" section below.

user@host:~$ ./ssl_cert_check.sh valid google.com
1

# Check 74.125.131.138 on port 443 for days left before certificate expiration
# TLS SNI(Server Name Indication) is set to google.com
# Check timeout is 15 seconds(default is 5)
# TLS protocol version is forced to 1.2, no auto-negotiation
user@host:~$ ./ssl_cert_check.sh expire 74.125.131.138 443 google.com 15 tls1_2
56

# JSON output of the certificate
user@host:~$ ./ssl_cert_check.sh json google.com
{"expire_days": 56, "valid": 1, "return_code": 0, "return_text": "ok"}

• Usage
• Return values
  • expire or valid
  • json: JSON output
• Examples
• Zabbix integration
• Support for Internationalized Domain Names with Punycode
• Using with busybox, like Alpine-based Docker images

ssl_cert_check.sh valid|expire|json <hostname or IP> [port[/starttls protocol]] [domain for TLS SNI] [check timeout (seconds)] [tls_version|tls_auto,[self_signed_ok]] [ s_client_option1 ] [ ... ] [ s_client_optionN ]

• [port] optional, default is 443

• [starttls protocol] optional, use protocol-specific message to switch to TLS communication. See man s_client option -starttls for supported protocols, like smtp, ftp, ldap.

• [domain for TLS SNI] optional, default is <hostname or IP>.
  SNI(Server Name Indication) is used to specify certificate domain name if it differs from the hostname.

• [check timeout (seconds)] optional, default is 5 seconds

• [tls_version|tls_auto,[self_signed_ok]] predefined options comma (,) separated, flag is optional. Set what is needed, no order of parameters is present of the available options below.

  • [tls_version] if it is not given a TLS version will be negotiated. Override the TLS version as you need, like: tls1_2, tls1_3, no_tls1, dtls and so on. See the "TLS Version Options" section of man openssl or man s_client for the available options.
  • [self_signed_ok] is optional. When this flag is set all self-signed certificates will be seen as valid. Otherwise these will be rendered invalid. It will allow OpenSSL return codes 18, 19, 20 & 21. See the Diagnostics section at https://www.openssl.org/docs/man1.0.2/man1/verify.html.
  • [tls_auto] means auto negotiating TLS protocol. That is the default, this option is used as separator if you want to speficy additional s_client options after it.

• [ s_client_option1 ] [ ... ] [ s_client_optionN ] is optional. But all other parameters are required to be set. Everything you append after all parameters will be added/appended on the OpenSSL s_client command. See all s_client options at https://www.openssl.org/docs/man1.0.2/man1/s_client.html.

• 1|0 for validity check: 1 - valid, 0 - invalid, expired or unavailable
• N number of days left for expiration check. Zero or negative value means certificate is expired
• -65535 site was unavailable for check timeout or incorrect script parameters

• JSON object with a summary of the result, which can be used by Zabbix (JSONPath)
  • expire_days: the amount of days before the certificate is expired
  • valid: see valid check
  • return_code: the OpenSSL return code
  • return_text: the OpenSSL return text which gives helpful insights
• JSON object with the error code and message
  • error_code: $error_code
  • error_message: The output of the error message

Exit code is always 0, otherwise zabbix agent fails to get the item value.

If the script is running without terminal(from zabbix), error messages are not printed, only the exit code. The reason is that zabbix merges stdout and strerr to get an item value.

Example of Zabbix user parameters is in userparameters_ssl_cert_check.conf.

You can write your own template or use one of two example templates in zabbix_template_examples directory.

basic - basic template and userparameter for monitoring of one SSL cert per host

• copy userparameters_ssl_cert_check.conf file into /etc/zabbix/zabbix_agentd.d on host
• import template in zabbix server, assign to host, fill macros on that host

advanced - advanced template and userparameter for monitoring of multiple ssl certs per hosts

• copy userparameters_ssl_cert_check.conf file into /etc/zabbix/zabbix_agentd.d
• copy and modify ssl_cert_list into /etc/zabbix/scripts/ssl_cert_list
• import template in zabbix server, assign to host, either run discovery or wait

If idn executable(libidn) is available, unicode host and domain names be will supported by converting to Punycode representation. Absence of idn does not break the script, but unicode domains will not be supported.

Busybox date can not parse date format from openssl. If you are using the script in busybox, for example in Alpine-based Docker images, install coreutils and bash packages.

P.S.

If this code is useful for you - don't forget to put a star on it's github repo.
