X509_sign, X509_sign_ctx,
|
||
|
X509_REQ_sign, X509_REQ_sign_ctx,
|
||

X509_CRL_sign, X509_CRL_sign_ctx -
|

sign certificate, certificate request, or CRL signature
|
||
|
|
||
|
=head1 SYNOPSIS
|
||
|
|
||
|
#include <openssl/x509.h>
|
||
|
|
||
|
int X509_sign(X509 *x, EVP_PKEY *pkey, const EVP_MD *md);
|
||
|
int X509_sign_ctx(X509 *x, EVP_MD_CTX *ctx);
|
||
|
|
||
|
int X509_REQ_sign(X509_REQ *x, EVP_PKEY *pkey, const EVP_MD *md);
|
||
|
int X509_REQ_sign_ctx(X509_REQ *x, EVP_MD_CTX *ctx);
|
||
|
|
||
|
int X509_CRL_sign(X509_CRL *x, EVP_PKEY *pkey, const EVP_MD *md);
|
||
|
int X509_CRL_sign_ctx(X509_CRL *x, EVP_MD_CTX *ctx);
|
||
|
|
||
|
=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
||
|
|
||
|
X509_sign() signs certificate I<x> using private key I<pkey> and message
|
||
|
digest I<md> and sets the signature in I<x>. X509_sign_ctx() also signs
|
||
|
certificate I<x> but uses the parameters contained in digest context I<ctx>.
|
||
|
If the certificate information includes X.509 extensions,
|
||
|
these two functions make sure that the certificate bears X.509 version 3.
|
||
|
|
||
|
X509_REQ_sign(), X509_REQ_sign_ctx(),
|
||
|
X509_CRL_sign(), and X509_CRL_sign_ctx()
|
||
|
sign certificate requests and CRLs, respectively.
|
||
|
|
||
|
=head1 NOTES
|
||
|
|
||
|
X509_sign_ctx() is used where the default parameters for the corresponding
|
||
|
public key and digest are not suitable. It can be used to sign keys using
|
||
|
RSA-PSS for example.
|
||
|
|
||
|
For efficiency reasons and to work around ASN.1 encoding issues the encoding
|
||
|
of the signed portion of a certificate, certificate request and CRL is cached
|
||
|
internally. If the signed portion of the structure is modified the encoding
|
||
|
is not always updated meaning a stale version is sometimes used. This is not
|
||
|
normally a problem because modifying the signed portion will invalidate the
|
||
|
signature and signing will always update the encoding.
|
||
|
|
||
|
=head1 RETURN VALUES
|
||
|
|
||
|
All functions return the size of the signature
|
||
|
in bytes for success and zero for failure.

=head1 HISTORY
|
||
|
|
||
|
The X509_sign(), X509_REQ_sign() and X509_CRL_sign() functions are
|
||
|
available in all versions of OpenSSL.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The X509_sign_ctx(), X509_REQ_sign_ctx()
|
||
|
and X509_CRL_sign_ctx() functions were added in OpenSSL 1.0.1.
