Parsing non-public key with x509 bundle – Getting Assist

Hey everybody.

I’m utilizing the x509 bundle and I’m making an attempt to parse the non-public key saved in my .env file utilizing the x509.ParsePKCS8PrivateKey methodology.

The tactic throws the next error: “asn1: construction error: tags don’t match (2 vs {class:0 tag:16 size:95 isCompound:true}) {non-obligatory:false specific:false utility:false non-public:false defaultValue: tag: stringType:0 timeType:0 set:false omitEmpty:false} int @2”.

I asume that the error is brought on because of the format of the non-public key within the .env file and the truth that a passphrase was used to generated. (I used the openssl command).
The format of the non-public key the .env file is the next
PRIVATE_KEY=”—–BEGIN ENCRYPTED PRIVATE KEY—–
blablablabla
—–END ENCRYPTED PRIVATE KEY—–
“
Right here’s is my code

privateKeyPEM := os.Getenv("PRIVATE_KEY")

	// get non-public key from .env file
	block, _ := pem.Decode([]byte(privateKeyPEM))
	if block == nil {
		http.Error(w, "{"error": "Error decoding non-public key"}", http.StatusBadRequest)
		return
	}

	privateKey, err := x509.ParsePKCS8PrivateKey(block.Bytes)
	if err != nil {
		fmt.Println(err.Error())
		http.Error(w, "{"error": "Error parsing non-public key"}", http.StatusBadRequest)
		return
	}

The purpose of this code is to make use of the non-public key inside an http handler with a view to decrypt some information coming from the consumer. After I obtain the info I name the rsa.DecryptPKCS1v15(rand.Reader, privateKey, ecryptedData) to decrypt the info, however the code by no means reaches this level.

Any concepts can be appreciated. My Go model is 1.21

Thanks upfront
