Using a TPM EKcert as input, recursively fetch the TPM CA certificate chain
#!/bin/bash
# Using a TPM EKcert filename as input, this script recursively fetches TPM CA certificates.
# It depends on the EKcert having an AIA (Authority Information Access) Issuer URI field.
# This field is not required and may not be present.
# If available, the CA certificates will be saved into the current directory.
#
# To use this script, you will need the following programs:
# jq — https://jqlang.github.io/jq/
# step — https://smallstep.com/docs/step-cli/installation/
# curl
# Function to download a certificate from a URL
download_certificate() {
local url="$1"

echo "Downloading certificate from $url..."
curl -LO "$url"
if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then
echo "Certificate downloaded: $filename"
extract_urls "$filename"
else
echo "Failed to download certificate from $url"
fi
}
# Function to extract URLs from a certificate file
extract_urls() {
local cert_file="$1"
local urls=$(step certificate inspect "$cert_file" --format json | jq -r '.extensions.authority_info_access.issuer_urls[]?')
