Postgresql – Calculate x5t#s256 thumbprint of a public certificate present in postgres database using pgcrypto library

I’m working on a module where I’m evaluating method to add thumbprint (x5t#256) value to all public keys present in the DB. Conversion using javascript libraries, java libraries is doable. however trying to convert the same using pgcrypto doesn’t seem to feasible as a part of sql migration script. are there any postgres libraries which could help me perform the same operation.

This the shell command i run on a public key to generate a fingerprint and trying to port to sql. (the same is as easy as loading certificate to an object in java or JavaScript and they have methods to output fingerprint)

echo $(openssl x509 -in public_key.pem -fingerprint -noout -sha256) | sed 's/SHA256 Fingerprint=//g' | sed 's/://g' | xxd -r -p | openssl enc -a | tr -d '=' | tr '/+' '_-'

    Do not let the jargon confuse you.

    Outside of a small handful of undeniable geniuses, crypto/security is a game for midwits crouching under a low intellectual ceiling with a major incentive to intimidate outsiders to hide the fact that they put food on the table by chaining the same four or five building blocks into a dizzying array of half-baked edifices.

    It’s kind of like how kids who played with legos may not have childhood scars on their arms/hands/face from the sharp edges of erector sets, but things they put up in real life tend to collapse due to incompetent design.

    To calculate the thumbprint:

    1. Make the cert binary from base64
    2. Get the sha256 digest of the binary cert
    3. Make the binary sha256 digest base64
    4. Get rid of trailing = characters
