tasmota-fingerprint is a tool designed to assist in calculating the custom TLS fingerprints expected by the Tasmota firmware since version 6.5.0.15 as documented on the Tasmota Wiki
tasmota-fingerprint /path/to/server.pem
/some/command/outputservercertificate | tasmota-fingerprint
In either case, the input is expected to be a PEM-encoded x509 certificate with an RSA public key, as is required by the Tasmota project.
If you have Go installed, simply go get github.com/issacg/tasmota-fingerprint
Otherwise, binary releases may be available.
The current implementation of TLS in the Tasmota project, without significantly altering the source code, requires either the use of a certificate issued by LetsEncrypt, or a TOFU security model. While these are both legitimate models for many use cases, they don't cover the use cases available in previous versions of the firmware where it was trivial to pre-calculate the expected fingerprint of any key.
This software allows the expected fingerprint to be calculated in order to be configured on end-devices without needing a TOFU flow.
