=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
The EVP signature routines are a high-level interface to digital signatures.
|
|
Input data is digested first before the signature verification takes place.
|
|
|
|
EVP_DigestVerifyInit_ex() sets up verification context B<ctx> to use a
|
|
digest with the name B<mdname> and public key B<pkey>. The name of the digest to
|
|
be used is passed to the provider of the signature algorithm in use. How that
|
|
provider interprets the digest name is provider specific. The provider may
|
|
implement that digest directly itself or it may (optionally) choose to fetch it
|
|
(which could result in a digest from a different provider being selected). If
|
|
the provider supports fetching the digest then it may use the B<props> argument
|
|
for the properties to be used during the fetch. Finally, the passed parameters
|
|
I<params>, if not NULL, are set on the context before returning.
|
|
|
|
The I<pkey> algorithm is used to fetch a B<EVP_SIGNATURE> method implicitly, to
|
|
be used for the actual signing. See L<provider(7)/Implicit fetch> for
|
|
more information about implicit fetches.
|
|
|
|
The OpenSSL default and legacy providers support fetching digests and can fetch
|
|
those digests from any available provider. The OpenSSL FIPS provider also
|
|
supports fetching digests but will only fetch digests that are themselves
|
|
implemented inside the FIPS provider.
|
|
|
|
B<ctx> must be created with EVP_MD_CTX_new() before calling this function. If
|
|
B<pctx> is not NULL, the EVP_PKEY_CTX of the verification operation will be
|
|
written to B<*pctx>: this can be used to set alternative verification options.
|
|
Note that any existing value in B<*pctx> is overwritten. The EVP_PKEY_CTX value
|
|
returned must not be freed directly by the application if B<ctx> is not assigned
|
|
an EVP_PKEY_CTX value before being passed to EVP_DigestVerifyInit_ex()
|
|
(which means the EVP_PKEY_CTX is created inside
|
|
EVP_DigestVerifyInit_ex() and it will be freed automatically when the
|
|
EVP_MD_CTX is freed). If the EVP_PKEY_CTX to be used is created by
|
|
EVP_DigestVerifyInit_ex then it will use the B<OSSL_LIB_CTX> specified
|
|
in I<libctx> and the property query string specified in I<props>.
|
|
|
|
No B<EVP_PKEY_CTX> will be created by EVP_DigestVerifyInit_ex() if the
|
|
passed B<ctx> has already been assigned one via L<EVP_MD_CTX_set_pkey_ctx(3)>.
|
|
See also L<SM2(7)>.
|
|
|
|
Not all digests can be used for all key types. The following combinations apply.

|
|
|
|
=back
|
|
|
|
If RSA-PSS is used and restrictions apply then the digest must match.
|
|
|
|
EVP_DigestVerifyInit() works in the same way as
|
|
EVP_DigestVerifyInit_ex() except that the B<mdname> parameter will be
|
|
inferred from the supplied digest B<type>, and B<props> will be NULL. Where
|
|
supplied the ENGINE B<e> will be used for the signature verification and digest
|
|
algorithm implementations. B<e> may be NULL.
|
|
|
|
EVP_DigestVerifyUpdate() hashes B<cnt> bytes of data at B<d> into the
|
|
verification context B<ctx>. This function can be called several times on the
|
|
same B<ctx> to include additional data.
|
|
|
|
EVP_DigestVerifyFinal() verifies the data in B<ctx> against the signature in
|
|
B<sig> of length B<siglen>.
|
|
|
|
EVP_DigestVerify() verifies B<tbslen> bytes at B<tbs> against the signature
|
|
in B<sig> of length B<siglen>.
|
|
|
|
=head1 RETURN VALUES
|
|
|
|
EVP_DigestVerifyInit() and EVP_DigestVerifyUpdate() return 1 for success and 0
|
|
for failure.
|
|
|
|
EVP_DigestVerifyFinal() and EVP_DigestVerify() return 1 for success; any other
|
|
value indicates failure. A return value of zero indicates that the signature
|
|
did not verify successfully (that is, B<tbs> did not match the original data or
|
|
the signature had an invalid form), while other values indicate a more serious
|
|
error (and sometimes also indicate an invalid signature form).
|
|
|
|
The error codes can be obtained from L<ERR_get_error(3)>.
|
|
|
|
=head1 NOTES
|
|
|
|
The B<EVP> interface to digital signatures should almost always be used in
|
|
preference to the low-level interfaces. This is because the code then becomes
|
|
transparent to the algorithm used and much more flexible.
|
|
|
|
EVP_DigestVerify() is a one shot operation which verifies a single block of
|
|
data in one function. For algorithms that support streaming it is equivalent
|
|
to calling EVP_DigestVerifyUpdate() and EVP_DigestVerifyFinal(). For
|
|
algorithms which do not support streaming (e.g. PureEdDSA) it is the only way
|
|
to verify data.
|
|
|
|
In previous versions of OpenSSL there was a link between message digest types
|
|
and public key algorithms. This meant that "clone" digests such as EVP_dss1()
|
|
needed to be used to sign using SHA1 and DSA. This is no longer necessary and
|
|
the use of clone digest is now discouraged.
|
|
|
|
For some key types and parameters the random number generator must be seeded.
|
|
If the automatic seeding or reseeding of the OpenSSL CSPRNG fails due to
|
|
external circumstances (see L<RAND(7)>), the operation will fail.
|
|
|
|
The call to EVP_DigestVerifyFinal() internally finalizes a copy of the digest
|
|
context. This means that EVP_VerifyUpdate() and EVP_VerifyFinal() can
|
|
be called later to digest and verify additional data. Applications may disable
|
|
this behavior by setting the EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_FINALISE context flag via
|
|
L<EVP_MD_CTX_set_flags(3)>.
|
|
|
|
Note that not all providers support continuation, in case the selected
|
|
provider does not allow to duplicate contexts EVP_DigestVerifyFinal() will
|
|
finalize the digest context and attempting to process additional data via
|
|
EVP_DigestVerifyUpdate() will result in an error.
|
|
|
|
EVP_DigestVerifyInit() and EVP_DigestVerifyInit_ex() functions can be called
|
|
multiple times on a context and the parameters set by previous calls should be
|
|
preserved if the I<pkey> parameter is NULL. The call then just resets the state
|
|
of the I<ctx>.
|
|
|
|
EVP_DigestVerify() can only be called once, and cannot be used again without
|
|
reinitialising the B<EVP_MD_CTX> by calling EVP_DigestVerifyInit_ex().
|
|
|
|
Ignoring failure returns of EVP_DigestVerifyInit() and EVP_DigestVerifyInit_ex()
|
|
functions can lead to subsequent undefined behavior when calling
|
|
EVP_DigestVerifyUpdate(), EVP_DigestVerifyFinal(), or EVP_DigestVerify().
