NAME

6       gnutls_pkcs7_verify_direct - API function
7

SYNOPSIS

9       #include <gnutls/pkcs7.h>
10
11       int  gnutls_pkcs7_verify_direct(gnutls_pkcs7_t pkcs7, gnutls_x509_crt_t
12       signer, unsigned idx, const gnutls_datum_t * data, unsigned flags);
13

ARGUMENTS

15       gnutls_pkcs7_t pkcs7
16                   should contain a gnutls_pkcs7_t type
17
18       gnutls_x509_crt_t signer
19                   the certificate believed to have signed the structure
20
21       unsigned idx
22                   the index of the signature info to check
23
24       const gnutls_datum_t * data
25                   The data to be verified or NULL
26
27       unsigned flags
28                   Zero or an OR list of gnutls_certificate_verify_flags
29

DESCRIPTION

31       This function will verify  the  provided  data  against  the  signature
32       present in the SignedData of the PKCS 7 structure. If the data provided
33       are NULL then the data in the encapsulatedContent field  will  be  used
34       instead.
35
36       Note  that,  unlike gnutls_pkcs7_verify() this function does not verify
37       the key purpose of the signer. It is expected for the caller to  verify
38       the     intended     purpose     of     the     signer    -e.g.,    via
39       gnutls_x509_crt_get_key_purpose_oid(),                               or
40       gnutls_x509_crt_check_key_purpose().
41
42       Note  also,  that since GnuTLS 3.5.6 this function introduces checks in
43       the end certificate ( signer ), including time  checks  and  key  usage
44       checks.
45

RETURNS

47       On  success,  GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS  (0)  is  returned, otherwise a negative
48       error value. A verification error  results  to  a  GNUTLS_E_PK_SIG_VER‐
49       IFY_FAILED   and   the  lack  of  encapsulated  data  to  verify  to  a
50       GNUTLS_E_REQUESTED_DATA_NOT_AVAILABLE.
51

SINCE

53       3.4.2
