# MailReader Class

The MailReader class implements parsing and decryption of e-mail messages.

## Syntax

```text
class secureblackbox.MailReader
```

## Remarks

MailReader parses and decrypts e-mail messages, as well as verifies electronic signatures.

Loading a e-mail message and accessing its properties:

```text
  MailReader reader = new MailReader();
  reader.LoadFromFile("path\\message.eml");
  Console.WriteLine($"From: {reader.Message.From}");
  Console.WriteLine($"To  : {reader.Message.SendTo}");
  Console.WriteLine($"Subject: {reader.Message.Subject}");
  Console.WriteLine($"Attachments: {reader.Message.AttachmentCount}");
  Console.WriteLine("Plain text:");
  Console.WriteLine(reader.Message.PlainText);
```

Checking a signed message and validating its signature:

```text
  MailReader reader = new MailReader();
  reader.LoadFromFile("path\\message.eml");
  if (reader.SecurityInfo.Signed)
  {
    if (reader.SecurityInfo.SignatureValidationResult == SignatureValidities.svtValid)
      Console.WriteLine($"Signed by {reader.SigningCertificate.Subject} and the signature is valid");
    else
      Console.WriteLine("Signature is NOT valid");
  }
```

Processing an encrypted e-mail message:

```text
  MailReader reader = new MailReader();
  reader.OnDecryptionInfoNeeded += (s, e) =>
  {
    // here you should provide a certificate for decryption;
    // use the provided IssuerRDN and SerialNumber/SubjectKeyID
    // values to find an appropriate certificate, then
    // assign the certificate to DecryptionCertificate property;
    // the certificate should include its private key
  };
  reader.LoadFromFile("path\\message.eml");
```

Authority Key Identifier is a certificate extension which allows identification of certificates belonging to the same issuer, but with different public keys. It is a de-facto standard to include this extension in all certificates to facilitate chain building.

This setting cannot be set when generating a certificate as it always derives from another certificate property. [CertificateManager](#CertificateManager) generates this setting automatically if enough information is available to it: for self-signed certificates, this value is copied from the [decryption_cert_subject_key_id](#decryption_cert_subject_key_id-property) setting, and for lower-level certificates, from the parent certificate's subject key ID extension.

A [Certificate](#Type_Certificate) object can contain two types of cryptographic objects: a ready-to-use X.509 certificate, or a certificate request ("an unsigned certificate"). Certificate requests can be upgraded to full certificates by signing them with a CA certificate.

Use the [CertificateManager](#CertificateManager) class to load or create new certificate and certificate requests objects.

This property is read-only.

def set_decryption_cert_crl_distribution_points(value: str) -> None: ...
decryption_cert_crl_distribution_points = property(get_decryption_cert_crl_distribution_points, set_decryption_cert_crl_distribution_points)
```

## Default Value

""

## Remarks

Contains a list of locations of CRL distribution points used to check this certificate's validity. The list is taken from the respective certificate extension.

Use this property when generating a certificate to provide a list of CRL endpoints that should be made part of the new certificate.

The endpoints are provided as a list of CRLF-separated URLs. Note that this differs from the behaviour used in earlier product versions, where the "|" character was used as the location separator.

# decryption_cert_curve property

Specifies the elliptic curve associated with the certificate's public key.

## Syntax

```text
def get_decryption_cert_curve() -> str: ...
def set_decryption_cert_curve(value: str) -> None: ...
decryption_cert_curve = property(get_decryption_cert_curve, set_decryption_cert_curve)
```

## Default Value

""

## Remarks

Specifies the elliptic curve associated with the certificate's public key. This setting only applies to certificates containing EC keys.

# decryption_cert_fingerprint property

Contains the fingerprint (a hash imprint) of this certificate.

## Syntax

```text
def get_decryption_cert_fingerprint() -> str: ...
decryption_cert_fingerprint = property(get_decryption_cert_fingerprint, None)
```

## Default Value

""

## Remarks

Contains the fingerprint (a hash imprint) of this certificate.

While there is no formal standard defining what a fingerprint is, a SHA1 hash of the certificate's DER-encoded body is typically used.

This property is read-only.

# decryption_cert_friendly_name property

Contains an associated alias (friendly name) of the certificate.

## Syntax

```text
def get_decryption_cert_friendly_name() -> str: ...
decryption_cert_friendly_name = property(get_decryption_cert_friendly_name, None)
```

## Default Value

""

## Remarks

Contains an associated alias (friendly name) of the certificate. The friendly name is not a property of a certificate: it is maintained by the certificate media rather than being included in its DER representation. Windows certificate stores are one example of media that does support friendly names.

This property is read-only.

# decryption_cert_handle property

Allows to get or set a 'handle', a unique identifier of the underlying property object.

## Syntax

```text
def get_decryption_cert_handle() -> int: ...
def set_decryption_cert_handle(value: int) -> None: ...
decryption_cert_handle = property(get_decryption_cert_handle, set_decryption_cert_handle)
```

## Default Value

0

## Remarks

Allows to get or set a 'handle', a unique identifier of the underlying property object. Use this property to assign objects of the same type in a quicker manner, without copying them fieldwise.

When you pass a handle of one object to another, the source object is copied to the destination rather than assigned. It is safe to get rid of the original object after such operation.

```text
  pdfSigner.setSigningCertHandle(certMgr.getCertHandle());
```

# decryption_cert_hash_algorithm property

Provides means to set the hash algorithm to be used in the subsequent operation on the certificate (such as generation or key signing).

## Syntax

```text
def get_decryption_cert_hash_algorithm() -> str: ...
def set_decryption_cert_hash_algorithm(value: str) -> None: ...
decryption_cert_hash_algorithm = property(get_decryption_cert_hash_algorithm, set_decryption_cert_hash_algorithm)
```

## Default Value

""

## Remarks

Provides means to set the hash algorithm to be used in the subsequent operation on the certificate (such as generation or key signing). It is not a property of a certificate; use [decryption_cert_sig_algorithm](#decryption_cert_sig_algorithm-property) to find out the hash algorithm that is part of the certificate signature.

# decryption_cert_issuer property

The common name of the certificate issuer (CA), typically a company name.

## Syntax

```text
def get_decryption_cert_issuer() -> str: ...
decryption_cert_issuer = property(get_decryption_cert_issuer, None)
```

## Default Value

""

## Remarks

The common name of the certificate issuer (CA), typically a company name. This is part of a larger set of credentials available via [decryption_cert_issuer_rdn](#decryption_cert_issuer_rdn-property).

This property is read-only.

# decryption_cert_issuer_rdn property

A list of Property=Value pairs that uniquely identify the certificate issuer.

## Syntax

```text
def get_decryption_cert_issuer_rdn() -> str: ...
def set_decryption_cert_issuer_rdn(value: str) -> None: ...
decryption_cert_issuer_rdn = property(get_decryption_cert_issuer_rdn, set_decryption_cert_issuer_rdn)
```

## Default Value

""

## Remarks

A list of *Property=Value* pairs that uniquely identify the certificate issuer.

Example: */C=US/O=Nationwide CA/CN=Web Certification Authority*

# decryption_cert_key_algorithm property

Specifies the public key algorithm of this certificate.

## Syntax

```text
def get_decryption_cert_key_algorithm() -> str: ...
def set_decryption_cert_key_algorithm(value: str) -> None: ...
decryption_cert_key_algorithm = property(get_decryption_cert_key_algorithm, set_decryption_cert_key_algorithm)

```

## Remarks

Contains a unique identifier of the certificate's cryptographic key.

Subject Key Identifier is a certificate extension which allows a specific public key to be associated with a certificate holder. Typically, subject key identifiers of CA certificates are recorded as respective CA key identifiers in the subordinate certificates that they issue, which facilitates chain building.

The [decryption_cert_subject_key_id](#decryption_cert_subject_key_id-property) and [decryption_cert_ca_key_id](#decryption_cert_ca_key_id-property) properties of self-signed certificates typically contain identical values, as in that specific case, the issuer and the subject are the same entity.

# decryption_cert_subject_rdn property

external_crypto_async_document_id = property(get_external_crypto_async_document_id, set_external_crypto_async_document_id)
```

## Default Value

""

## Remarks

Specifies an optional document ID for SignAsyncBegin() and SignAsyncEnd() calls.

Use this property when working with multi-signature DCAuth requests and responses to uniquely identify documents signed within a larger batch. On the completion stage, this value helps the signing component identify the correct signature in the returned batch of responses.

If using batched requests, make sure to set this property to the same value on both the pre-signing (SignAsyncBegin) and completion (SignAsyncEnd) stages.

# external_crypto_key_id property

The ID of the pre-shared key used for DC request authentication.

## Syntax

```text
def get_external_crypto_key_id() -> str: ...
def set_external_crypto_key_id(value: str) -> None: ...
external_crypto_key_id = property(get_external_crypto_key_id, set_external_crypto_key_id)
```

## Default Value

""

## Remarks

The ID of the pre-shared key used for DC request authentication.

Asynchronous DCAuth-driven communication requires that parties authenticate each other with a secret pre-shared cryptographic key. This provides an extra protection layer for the protocol and diminishes the risk of the private key becoming abused by foreign parties. Use this property to provide the pre-shared key identifier, and use [external_crypto_key_secret](#external_crypto_key_secret-property) to pass the key itself.

The same KeyID/KeySecret pair should be used on the DCAuth side for the signing requests to be accepted.

Note: The KeyID/KeySecret scheme is very similar to the AuthKey scheme used in various Cloud service providers to authenticate users.

Example:

```text
  signer.ExternalCrypto.KeyID = "MainSigningKey";
  signer.ExternalCrypto.KeySecret = "abcdef0123456789";
```

# external_crypto_key_secret property

The pre-shared key used for DC request authentication.

## Syntax

```text
def get_external_crypto_key_secret() -> str: ...
def set_external_crypto_key_secret(value: str) -> None: ...
external_crypto_key_secret = property(get_external_crypto_key_secret, set_external_crypto_key_secret)
```

## Default Value

""

## Remarks

The pre-shared key used for DC request authentication. This key must be set and match the key used by the DCAuth counterpart for the scheme to work.

Read more about configuring authentication in the [external_crypto_key_id](#external_crypto_key_id-property) topic.

```

## Default Value

1

## Remarks

Revocation checking is necessary to ensure the integrity of the chain and obtain up-to-date certificate validity and trustworthiness information.

Certificate Revocation Lists (CRLs) and Online Certificate Status Protocol (OCSP) responses serve the same purpose of ensuring that the certificate had not been revoked by the Certificate Authority (CA) at the time of use. Depending on your circumstances and security policy requirements, you may want to use either one or both of the revocation information source types.

|  |  |  |
| --- | --- | --- |
| crcNone | 0 | No revocation checking. |
| crcAuto | 1 | Automatic mode selection. Currently this maps to crcAnyOCSPOrCRL, but it may change in the future. |
| crcAllCRL | 2 | All provided CRL endpoints will be checked, and all checks must succeed. |
| crcAllOCSP | 3 | All provided OCSP endpoints will be checked, and all checks must succeed. |
| crcAllCRLAndOCSP | 4 | All provided CRL and OCSP endpoints will be checked, and all checks must succeed. |
| crcAnyCRL | 5 | All provided CRL endpoints will be checked, and at least one check must succeed. |
| crcAnyOCSP | 6 | All provided OCSP endpoints will be checked, and at least one check must succeed. |
| crcAnyCRLOrOCSP | 7 | All provided CRL and OCSP endpoints will be checked, and at least one check must succeed. CRL endpoints are checked first. |
| crcAnyOCSPOrCRL | 8 | All provided CRL and OCSP endpoints will be checked, and at least one check must succeed. OCSP endpoints are checked first. |

This setting controls the way the revocation checks are performed for every certificate in the chain. Typically certificates come with two types of revocation information sources: CRL (certificate revocation lists) and OCSP responders. CRLs are static objects periodically published by the CA at some online location. OCSP responders are active online services maintained by the CA that can provide up-to-date information on certificate statuses in near real time.

There are some conceptual differences between the two. CRLs are normally larger in size. Their use involves some latency because there is normally some delay between the time when a certificate was revoked and the time the subsequent CRL mentioning that is published. The benefits of CRL is that the same object can provide statuses for all certificates issued by a particular CA, and that the whole technology is much simpler than OCSP (and thus is supported by more CAs).

This setting lets you adjust the validation course by including or excluding certain types of revocation sources from the validation process. The crcAnyOCSPOrCRL setting (give preference to the faster OCSP route and only demand one source to succeed) is a good choice for most typical validation environments. The "crcAll*" modes are much stricter, and may be used in scenarios where bulletproof validity information is essential.

NOTE: If no CRL or OCSP endpoints are provided by the CA, the revocation check will be considered successful. This is because the CA chose not to supply revocation information for its certificates, meaning they are considered irrevocable.

NOTE: Within each of the above settings, if any retrieved CRL or OCSP response indicates that the certificate has been revoked, the revocation check fails.

# signing_cert_fingerprint property

Contains the fingerprint (a hash imprint) of this certificate.

## Syntax

```text
def get_signing_cert_fingerprint() -> str: ...
signing_cert_fingerprint = property(get_signing_cert_fingerprint, None)
```

## Default Value

""

## Remarks

Contains the fingerprint (a hash imprint) of this certificate.

While there is no formal standard defining what a fingerprint is, a SHA1 hash of the certificate's DER-encoded body is typically used.

This property is read-only.

# signing_cert_friendly_name property

Contains an associated alias (friendly name) of the certificate.

## Syntax

```text
def get_signing_cert_friendly_name() -> str: ...
signing_cert_friendly_name = property(get_signing_cert_friendly_name, None)
```

## Default Value

""

## Remarks

Contains an associated alias (friendly name) of the certificate. The friendly name is not a property of a certificate: it is maintained by the certificate media rather than being included in its DER representation. Windows certificate stores are one example of media that does support friendly names.

This property is read-only.

# signing_cert_handle property

Allows to get or set a 'handle', a unique identifier of the underlying property object.

## Syntax

```text
def get_signing_cert_handle() -> int: ...
signing_cert_handle = property(get_signing_cert_handle, None)
```

## Default Value

0

## Remarks

Allows to get or set a 'handle', a unique identifier of the underlying property object. Use this property to assign objects of the same type in a quicker manner, without copying them fieldwise.

When you pass a handle of one object to another, the source object is copied to the destination rather than assigned. It is safe to get rid of the original object after such operation.

```text
  pdfSigner.setSigningCertHandle(certMgr.getCertHandle());
```

This property is read-only.

# signing_cert_hash_algorithm property

Provides means to set the hash algorithm to be used in the subsequent operation on the certificate (such as generation or key signing).

## Syntax

```text
def get_signing_cert_hash_algorithm() -> str: ...
signing_cert_hash_algorithm = property(get_signing_cert_hash_algorithm, None)
```

## Default Value

""

## Remarks

Provides means to set the hash algorithm to be used in the subsequent operation on the certificate (such as generation or key signing). It is not a property of a certificate; use [signing_cert_sig_algorithm](#signing_cert_sig_algorithm-property) to find out the hash algorithm that is part of the certificate signature.

# signing_cert_issuer property

The common name of the certificate issuer (CA), typically a company name.

## Syntax

```text
def get_signing_cert_issuer() -> str: ...
signing_cert_issuer = property(get_signing_cert_issuer, None)
```

## Default Value

""

## Remarks

The common name of the certificate issuer (CA), typically a company name. This is part of a larger set of credentials available via [signing_cert_issuer_rdn](#signing_cert_issuer_rdn-property).

This property is read-only.

# signing_cert_issuer_rdn property

A list of Property=Value pairs that uniquely identify the certificate issuer.

## Syntax

```text
def get_signing_cert_issuer_rdn() -> str: ...
signing_cert_issuer_rdn = property(get_signing_cert_issuer_rdn, None)
```

## Default Value

""

## Remarks

A list of *Property=Value* pairs that uniquely identify the certificate issuer.

Example: */C=US/O=Nationwide CA/CN=Web Certification Authority*

This property is read-only.

# signing_cert_key_algorithm property

Specifies the public key algorithm of this certificate.

## Syntax

```text
def get_signing_cert_key_algorithm() -> str: ...
signing_cert_key_algorithm = property(get_signing_cert_key_algorithm, None)
```

## Default Value

"0"

## Remarks

Use the [signing_cert_key_bits](#signing_cert_key_bits-property), [signing_cert_curve](#signing_cert_curve-property), and [signing_cert_public_key_bytes](#signing_cert_public_key_bytes-property) properties to get more details about the key the certificate contains.

This property is read-only.

# signing_cert_key_bits property

Returns the length of the public key in bits.

## Syntax

```text
def get_signing_cert_key_bits() -> int: ...
signing_cert_key_bits = property(get_signing_cert_key_bits, None)
```

## Default Value

0

## Remarks

Returns the length of the public key in bits.

This value indicates the length of the principal cryptographic parameter of the key, such as the length of the RSA modulus or ECDSA field. The key data returned by the [signing_cert_public_key_bytes](#signing_cert_public_key_bytes-property) or [signing_cert_private_key_bytes](#MailReader_p_SigningCertPrivateKeyBytes) property would typically contain auxiliary values, and therefore be longer.

This property is read-only.

# signing_cert_key_fingerprint property

Returns a SHA1 fingerprint of the public key contained in the certificate.

## Syntax

```text
def get_signing_cert_key_fingerprint() -> str: ...
signing_cert_key_fingerprint = property(get_signing_cert_key_fingerprint, None)
```

## Default Value

""

## Remarks

Returns a SHA1 fingerprint of the public key contained in the certificate.

Note that the key fingerprint is different from the certificate fingerprint accessible via the [signing_cert_fingerprint](#signing_cert_fingerprint-property) property. The key fingerprint uniquely identifies the public key, and so can be the same for multiple certificates containing the same key.

This property is read-only.

# signing_cert_key_usage property

Indicates the purposes of the key contained in the certificate, in the form of an OR'ed flag set.

## Syntax

```text
def get_signing_cert_key_usage() -> int: ...
signing_cert_key_usage = property(get_signing_cert_key_usage, None)
```

## Default Value

0

## Remarks

Indicates the purposes of the key contained in the certificate, in the form of an OR'ed flag set.

This value is a bit mask of the following values:

|  |  |  |
| --- | --- | --- |
| ckuUnknown | 0x00000 | Unknown key usage |
| ckuDigitalSignature | 0x00001 | Digital signature |

```

## Remarks

Contains a unique identifier of the certificate's cryptographic key.

Subject Key Identifier is a certificate extension which allows a specific public key to be associated with a certificate holder. Typically, subject key identifiers of CA certificates are recorded as respective CA key identifiers in the subordinate certificates that they issue, which facilitates chain building.

The [signing_cert_subject_key_id](#signing_cert_subject_key_id-property) and [signing_cert_ca_key_id](#signing_cert_ca_key_id-property) properties of self-signed certificates typically contain identical values, as in that specific case, the issuer and the subject are the same entity.

This property is read-only.

# tls_revocation_check property

Specifies the kind(s) of revocation check to perform.

## Syntax

```text
def get_tls_revocation_check() -> int: ...
def set_tls_revocation_check(value: int) -> None: ...

```

## Default Value

1

## Remarks

Specifies the kind(s) of revocation check to perform.

Revocation checking is necessary to ensure the integrity of the chain and obtain up-to-date certificate validity and trustworthiness information.

|  |  |  |
| --- | --- | --- |
| crcNone | 0 | No revocation checking. |
| crcAuto | 1 | Automatic mode selection. Currently this maps to crcAnyOCSPOrCRL, but it may change in the future. |
| crcAllCRL | 2 | All provided CRL endpoints will be checked, and all checks must succeed. |
| crcAllOCSP | 3 | All provided OCSP endpoints will be checked, and all checks must succeed. |
| crcAllCRLAndOCSP | 4 | All provided CRL and OCSP endpoints will be checked, and all checks must succeed. |
| crcAnyCRL | 5 | All provided CRL endpoints will be checked, and at least one check must succeed. |
| crcAnyOCSP | 6 | All provided OCSP endpoints will be checked, and at least one check must succeed. |
| crcAnyCRLOrOCSP | 7 | All provided CRL and OCSP endpoints will be checked, and at least one check must succeed. CRL endpoints are checked first. |
| crcAnyOCSPOrCRL | 8 | All provided CRL and OCSP endpoints will be checked, and at least one check must succeed. OCSP endpoints are checked first. |

This setting controls the way the revocation checks are performed for every certificate in the chain. Typically certificates come with two types of revocation information sources: CRL (certificate revocation lists) and OCSP responders. CRLs are static objects periodically published by the CA at some online location. OCSP responders are active online services maintained by the CA that can provide up-to-date information on certificate statuses in near real time.

There are some conceptual differences between the two. CRLs are normally larger in size. Their use involves some latency because there is normally some delay between the time when a certificate was revoked and the time the subsequent CRL mentioning that is published. The benefits of CRL is that the same object can provide statuses for all certificates issued by a particular CA, and that the whole technology is much simpler than OCSP (and thus is supported by more CAs).

This setting lets you adjust the validation course by including or excluding certain types of revocation sources from the validation process. The crcAnyOCSPOrCRL setting (give preference to the faster OCSP route and only demand one source to succeed) is a good choice for most typical validation environments. The "crcAll*" modes are much stricter, and may be used in scenarios where bulletproof validity information is essential.

NOTE: If no CRL or OCSP endpoints are provided by the CA, the revocation check will be considered successful. This is because the CA chose not to supply revocation information for its certificates, meaning they are considered irrevocable.

NOTE: Within each of the above settings, if any retrieved CRL or OCSP response indicates that the certificate has been revoked, the revocation check fails.

# used_cert_ca_key_id property

A unique identifier (fingerprint) of the CA certificate's cryptographic key.

## Syntax

```text
def get_used_cert_ca_key_id(used_cert_index: int) -> bytes: ...
```

## Remarks

A unique identifier (fingerprint) of the CA certificate's cryptographic key.

Authority Key Identifier is a certificate extension which allows identification of certificates belonging to the same issuer, but with different public keys. It is a de-facto standard to include this extension in all certificates to facilitate chain building.

This setting cannot be set when generating a certificate as it always derives from another certificate property. [CertificateManager](#CertificateManager) generates this setting automatically if enough information is available to it: for self-signed certificates, this value is copied from the [used_cert_subject_key_id](#used_cert_subject_key_id-property) setting, and for lower-level certificates, from the parent certificate's subject key ID extension.

The *used_cert_index* parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the [used_cert_count](#used_cert_count-property) property.

This property is read-only.

# used_cert_cert_type property

Returns the type of the entity contained in the Certificate object.

## Syntax

```text
def get_used_cert_cert_type(used_cert_index: int) -> int: ...
```

## Possible Values

```text
0   # Unknown1   # X509Certificate2   # X509CertificateRequest
```

## Default Value

0

## Remarks

Returns the type of the entity contained in the [Certificate](#Type_Certificate) object.

A [Certificate](#Type_Certificate) object can contain two types of cryptographic objects: a ready-to-use X.509 certificate, or a certificate request ("an unsigned certificate"). Certificate requests can be upgraded to full certificates by signing them with a CA certificate.

Use the [CertificateManager](#CertificateManager) class to load or create new certificate and certificate requests objects.

The *used_cert_index* parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the [used_cert_count](#used_cert_count-property) property.

This property is read-only.

# used_cert_crl_distribution_points property

Contains a list of locations of CRL distribution points used to check this certificate's validity.

## Syntax

```text
def get_used_cert_crl_distribution_points(used_cert_index: int) -> str: ...
```

## Default Value

""

## Remarks

Contains a list of locations of CRL distribution points used to check this certificate's validity. The list is taken from the respective certificate extension.

Use this property when generating a certificate to provide a list of CRL endpoints that should be made part of the new certificate.

The endpoints are provided as a list of CRLF-separated URLs. Note that this differs from the behaviour used in earlier product versions, where the "|" character was used as the location separator.

The *used_cert_index* parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the [used_cert_count](#used_cert_count-property) property.

This property is read-only.

# used_cert_curve property

Specifies the elliptic curve associated with the certificate's public key.

## Syntax

```text
def get_used_cert_curve(used_cert_index: int) -> str: ...
```

## Default Value

""

## Remarks

Specifies the elliptic curve associated with the certificate's public key. This setting only applies to certificates containing EC keys.

The *used_cert_index* parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the [used_cert_count](#used_cert_count-property) property.

This property is read-only.

# used_cert_fingerprint property

Contains the fingerprint (a hash imprint) of this certificate.

## Syntax

```text
def get_used_cert_fingerprint(used_cert_index: int) -> str: ...
```

## Default Value

""

## Remarks

Contains the fingerprint (a hash imprint) of this certificate.

While there is no formal standard defining what a fingerprint is, a SHA1 hash of the certificate's DER-encoded body is typically used.

The *used_cert_index* parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the [used_cert_count](#used_cert_count-property) property.

This property is read-only.

# used_cert_friendly_name property

Contains an associated alias (friendly name) of the certificate.

## Syntax

```text
def get_used_cert_friendly_name(used_cert_index: int) -> str: ...
```

## Default Value

""

## Remarks

Contains an associated alias (friendly name) of the certificate. The friendly name is not a property of a certificate: it is maintained by the certificate media rather than being included in its DER representation. Windows certificate stores are one example of media that does support friendly names.

The *used_cert_index* parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the [used_cert_count](#used_cert_count-property) property.

This property is read-only.

# used_cert_handle property

Allows to get or set a 'handle', a unique identifier of the underlying property object.

## Syntax

```text
def get_used_cert_handle(used_cert_index: int) -> int: ...
```

## Default Value

0

## Remarks

Allows to get or set a 'handle', a unique identifier of the underlying property object. Use this property to assign objects of the same type in a quicker manner, without copying them fieldwise.

When you pass a handle of one object to another, the source object is copied to the destination rather than assigned. It is safe to get rid of the original object after such operation.

```text
  pdfSigner.setSigningCertHandle(certMgr.getCertHandle());
```

The *used_cert_index* parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the [used_cert_count](#used_cert_count-property) property.

This property is read-only.

# used_cert_hash_algorithm property

Provides means to set the hash algorithm to be used in the subsequent operation on the certificate (such as generation or key signing).

## Syntax

```text
def get_used_cert_hash_algorithm(used_cert_index: int) -> str: ...
```

## Default Value

""

## Remarks

Provides means to set the hash algorithm to be used in the subsequent operation on the certificate (such as generation or key signing). It is not a property of a certificate; use [used_cert_sig_algorithm](#used_cert_sig_algorithm-property) to find out the hash algorithm that is part of the certificate signature.

The common name of the certificate issuer (CA), typically a company name.

## Syntax

```text
def get_used_cert_issuer(used_cert_index: int) -> str: ...
```

## Default Value

""

## Remarks

The common name of the certificate issuer (CA), typically a company name. This is part of a larger set of credentials available via [used_cert_issuer_rdn](#used_cert_issuer_rdn-property).

The *used_cert_index* parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the [used_cert_count](#used_cert_count-property) property.

This property is read-only.

Use the [used_cert_key_bits](#used_cert_key_bits-property), [used_cert_curve](#used_cert_curve-property), and [used_cert_public_key_bytes](#used_cert_public_key_bytes-property) properties to get more details about the key the certificate contains.

The *used_cert_index* parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the [used_cert_count](#used_cert_count-property) property.

This property is read-only.

# used_cert_key_bits property

Returns the length of the public key in bits.

## Syntax

```text
def get_used_cert_key_bits(used_cert_index: int) -> int: ...
```

## Default Value

0

## Remarks

Returns the length of the public key in bits.

This value indicates the length of the principal cryptographic parameter of the key, such as the length of the RSA modulus or ECDSA field. The key data returned by the [used_cert_public_key_bytes](#used_cert_public_key_bytes-property) or [used_cert_private_key_bytes](#used_cert_private_key_bytes-property) property would typically contain auxiliary values, and therefore be longer.

The *used_cert_index* parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the [used_cert_count](#used_cert_count-property) property.

This property is read-only.

# used_cert_key_fingerprint property

Returns a SHA1 fingerprint of the public key contained in the certificate.

## Syntax

```text
def get_used_cert_key_fingerprint(used_cert_index: int) -> str: ...
```

## Default Value

""

## Remarks

Returns a SHA1 fingerprint of the public key contained in the certificate.

Note that the key fingerprint is different from the certificate fingerprint accessible via the [used_cert_fingerprint](#used_cert_fingerprint-property) property. The key fingerprint uniquely identifies the public key, and so can be the same for multiple certificates containing the same key.

The *used_cert_index* parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the [used_cert_count](#used_cert_count-property) property.

This property is read-only.

# used_cert_key_usage property

Indicates the purposes of the key contained in the certificate, in the form of an OR'ed flag set.

## Syntax

```text
def get_used_cert_key_usage(used_cert_index: int) -> int: ...
```

## Default Value

0

## Remarks

Indicates the purposes of the key contained in the certificate, in the form of an OR'ed flag set.

This value is a bit mask of the following values:

|  |  |  |
| --- | --- | --- |
| ckuUnknown | 0x00000 | Unknown key usage |
| ckuDigitalSignature | 0x00001 | Digital signature |

| ckuKeyPurposeClientAuth | 0x10000 | Kerberos - client authentication |
| ckuKeyPurposeKDC | 0x20000 | Kerberos - KDC |

Set this property before generating the certificate to propagate the key usage flags to the new certificate.

The *used_cert_index* parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the [used_cert_count](#used_cert_count-property) property.

This property is read-only.

# used_cert_key_valid property

Returns True if the certificate's key is cryptographically valid, and False otherwise.

## Syntax

```text

validation_moment = property(get_validation_moment, set_validation_moment)
```

## Default Value

""

## Remarks

Use this property to specify the moment in time at which signature validity should be established. The time is in UTC. Leave the setting empty to stick to the default moment (either the signature creation time or the current time).

The validity of the same signature may differ depending on the time point chosen due to temporal changes in chain validities, revocation statuses, and timestamp times.

# config method

Sets or retrieves a configuration setting.

## Syntax

```text
def config(configuration_string: str) -> str: ...
```

## Remarks

config is a generic method available in every class. It is used to set and retrieve [configuration settings](#mailreader-config-settings) for the class.

These settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the class, access to these *internal properties* is provided through the config method.

To set a configuration setting named *PROPERTY*, you must call *Config("PROPERTY=VALUE")*, where *VALUE* is the value of the setting expressed as a string. For boolean values, use the strings "True", "False", "0", "1", "Yes", or "No" (case does not matter).

To read (query) the value of a [configuration setting](#mailreader-config-settings), you must call *Config("PROPERTY")*. The value will be returned as a string.

**ChainCurrentCRL**: Returns the current CRL.Returns the CRL object that is currently being processed.

**ChainCurrentCRLSize**: Returns the size of the current CRL.This property returns the size of the CRL object that is currently being processed.

**ChainCurrentOCSP**: Returns the current OCSP response.Returns the OCSP object that is currently being processed.

**ChainCurrentOCSPSigner**: Returns the signer of the current OCSP object.Returns the signer/CA that has issued the OCSP response that is currently being processed.

**ChainInterimDetails**: Returns the current interim validation details.This property returns the interim chain validation details.

**ChainInterimResult**: Returns the current interim validation result.Use this setting to obtain the current (mid-chain) validation result. This property applies to the current validation step and may change as the chain walk proceeds. The final result will be published in the ChainValidationResult property once the validation process completes.

**CheckValidityPeriodForTrusted**: Whether to check validity period for trusted certificates.Whether to check validity period for trusted certificates.

**DislikeOpenEndedOCSPs**: Tells the class to discourage OCSP responses without an explicit NextUpdate parameter.When this property is set to True, the validation engine treats OCSP response without a NextUpdate field as 'substandard' and tries to obtain some further revocation material for the certificate in question (a different OCSP or a CRL, even if the class is configured to prefer the OCSP route). This is to work around Adobe Reader's intolerance to such OCSPs when classifying signed documents as LTV (as of August 2022).

**EvaluateSystemTrust**: Enables or disables usage of the platform's built-in trust validation facilities.When enabled, the component delegates the certificate chain validation to the operating system's native trust evaluation mechanism (e.g. SecTrustEvaluate on Apple platforms). This functionality is currently available on macOS and iOS systems only. This property is disabled by default, because enabling it may prevent the AdES components from collecting full revocation information required for long-term validation (LTV) signatures.

**EvaluateSystemTrustForSelfSignedCertificates**: Enables or disables usage of the platform's built-in trust validation facilities for self-signed certificates.When enabled, the component delegates the certificate chain validation to the operating system's native trust evaluation mechanism (e.g. SecTrustEvaluate on Apple platforms) for self-signed certificates. This functionality is currently available on macOS and iOS systems only. This property is enabled by default.

**EvaluateSystemTrustForSSL**: Enables or disables usage of the platform's built-in trust validation facilities for SSL/TLS.When enabled, the component delegates the certificate chain validation to the operating system's native trust evaluation mechanism (e.g. SecTrustEvaluate on Apple platforms) specifically for SSL/TLS certificates. This functionality is currently available on macOS and iOS systems only. This property is enabled by default.

**ForceCompleteChainValidation**: Whether to check the CA certificates when the signing certificate is invalid.Set this property to True to check issuer (CA) certificates if the signing or an intermediate chain certificate is invalid.

**ForceCompleteChainValidationForTrusted**: Whether to continue with the full validation up to the root CA certificate for mid-level trust anchors. Set this property to True to enable full chain validation for explicitly trusted intermediary or end-entity certificates. This may be useful when creating signatures to enforce completeness of the collected revocation information. It often makes sense to set this property to false when validating signatures to reduce validation time and avoid issues with badly configured environments.

**GracePeriod**: Specifies a grace period to apply during revocation information checks.Use this property to specify a grace period (in seconds). Grace period applies to certain subprotocols, such as OCSP, and caters to the inaccuracy and/or missynchronization of clocks on different participating systems. Any time deviations within the grace period will be tolerated.

**HeaderCharset**: Charset of the header. If not empty, the one specified in the message header will be ignored.

**IgnoreChainLoops**: Whether chain loops should be ignored.Set this property to True to make the validation engine ignore chain loops. This may be an option when you need to process chains from buggy CAs that happen to include subchains that sign themselves.

**IgnoreOCSPNoCheckExtension**: Whether the OCSP NoCheck extension should be ignored.Set this property to True to make the validation engine ignore the OCSP no-check extension. You would normally need to set this property when validating severely non-compliant chains that misuse the extension, causing chain loops or other validation issues.

**IgnoreSystemTrust**: Whether trusted Windows Certificate Stores should be treated as trusted.Specifies whether, during chain validation, the class should respect the trust to CA certificates as configured in the operating system. In Windows this effectively defines whether the class should trust the certificates residing in the Trusted Root Certification Authorities store.

If [IgnoreSystemTrust](#IgnoreSystemTrust) is True, certificates residing in the trusted root store are treated as if they are known, rather than trusted. Only certificates provided via other means (such as the trusted_certificates property) are considered trusted.

**ImplicitlyTrustSelfSignedCertificates**: Whether to trust self-signed certificates. Set this property to True to implicitly trust all self-signed certificates. Use it with care as trusting just about every self-signed certificate is unwise. One exceptional reason where this property may be handy is where a chain is validated in an environment that is not supposed to trust it (for example, a signing, rather than verifying environment, or a QA server). Trusting all self-signing certificates (which are normally trusted) allows emulating the verifying environment without actually changing its security settings.

**MaxHeaderSize**: Specifies the maximum mail message header size in bytes.Use this property to adjust the maximum size of a mail message header. If no header end (CRLFCRLF) found, the header is considered blank. Default size is 32768 (i.e. 32KB).

**PromoteLongOCSPResponses**: Whether long OCSP responses are requested. Set this property to True to force the class to publish the 'long' form of OCSP responses. Otherwise, only BasicOCSPResponse blobs are promoted.

**TempPath**: Path for storing temporary files.This setting specifies an absolute path to the location on disk where temporary files are stored. This setting is supported only in the Java edition for all applicable signing components except [PDFSigner](PDFSigner.md#PDFSigner), where this limitation does not apply.

**TextCharset**: Charset of text parts, if any. If not empty, the one specified in the message text parts will be ignored.

**TolerateMinorChainIssues**: Whether to tolerate minor chain issues.This parameter controls whether the chain validator should tolerate minor technical issues when validating the chain. Those are:

- CA, revocation source, TLS key usage requirements are not mandated
- Violation of OCSP issuer requirements are ignored
- The AuthorityKeyID extension in CRL- and certificate-issuing CAs are ignored (helps with incorrectly renewed certificates)
- Basic constraints and name constraints of CA certificates are ignored
- Some weaker algorithms are tolerated

**UseEnvStorages**: Enables or disables use of the environment storages.Enable this property to make the chain validation module automatically look up missing CA and intermediate certificates in the environment storages.

**UseMicrosoftCTL**: Enables or disables the automatic use of the Microsoft online certificate trust list.Enable this property to make the chain validation module automatically look up missing CA certificates in the public Windows Update repository.

**UseSystemCertificates**: Enables or disables the use of the system certificates.Use this property to tell the chain validation module to automatically look up missing CA certificates in the system certificates. In many cases it is beneficial to switch this property on, as the operating system certificate configuration provides a representative trust framework.

**UseValidationCache**: Enables or disable the use of the product-wide certificate chain validation cache.Use this property to enable or disable the use of the global chain validation cache. If enabled, the class will consult the product-wide validation cache when validating the signing chains. Also, the outcomes of any new chain validations performed by the class, both interim and final, will be saved in the cache and available for re-use by any future validations. Disable this property to ignore the cache and always perform the validation from a fresh start.

**MaxASN1BufferLength**: Specifies the maximal allowed length for ASN.1 primitive tag data.This global property limits the maximal allowed length for ASN.1 tag data for non-content-carrying structures, such as certificates, CRLs, or timestamps. It does not affect structures that can carry content, such as CMS/CAdES messages. This is a security property aiming at preventing DoS attacks.

**MaxASN1TreeDepth**: Specifies the maximal depth for processed ASN.1 trees.This global property limits the maximal depth of ASN.1 trees that the component can handle without throwing an error. This is a security property aiming at preventing DoS attacks.

**OCSPHashAlgorithm**: Specifies the hash algorithm to be used to identify certificates in OCSP requests.This global setting defines the hash algorithm to use in OCSP requests during chain validation. Some OCSP responders can only use older algorithms, in which case setting this property to SHA1 may be helpful.

**OldClientSideRSAFallback**: Specifies whether the SSH client should use a SHA1 fallback.Tells the SSH client to use a legacy ssh-rsa authentication even if the server indicates support for newer algorithms, such as rsa-sha-256. This is a backward-compatibility tweak.

**PKICache**: Specifies which PKI elements (certificates, CRLs, OCSP responses) should be cached.The PKICache setting specifies which Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) elements should be cached to optimize performance and reduce retrieval times. It supports comma-separated values to indicate the specific types of PKI data that should be cached.

Supported Values:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| certificate | Enables caching of certificates. |
| crl | Enables caching of Certificate Revocation Lists (CRLs). |
| ocsp | Enables caching of OCSP (Online Certificate Status Protocol) responses. |

Example (default value):

```

 In this example, the component caches certificates, CRLs, and OCSP responses.

**PKICachePath**: Specifies the file system path where cached PKI data is stored.The PKICachePath setting defines the file system path where cached PKI data (e.g., certificates, CRLs, OCSP responses and Trusted Lists) will be stored. This allows the system to persistently save and retrieve PKI cache data, even across application restarts.

The default value is an empty string - no cached PKI data is stored on disk.

Example:

The type of the IP address (IPv4 or IPv6) is determined automatically. If both addresses are available, they are divided by the | (pipe) character.

**StaticIPAddresses**: Gets or sets all the static DNS rules.Use this property to get static DNS rules from the current rules storage or restore them back between application sessions. If *StaticDNS* of the class is set to "*local*", the property returns/restores the rules from/to the internal storage of the class. If *StaticDNS* of the class is set to "*global*", the property returns/restores the rules from/to the GLOBAL storage. The rules list is returned and accepted in JSON format.

**Tag**: Allows to store any custom data.Use this config property to store any custom data.

**TLSSessionGroup**: Specifies the group name of TLS sessions to be used for session resumption.Use this property to limit the search of cached TLS sessions to the specified group. Sessions from other groups will be ignored. By default, all sessions are cached with an empty group name and available to all the classes.

**TLSSessionLifetime**: Specifies lifetime in seconds of the cached TLS session.Use this property to specify how much time the TLS session should be kept in the session cache. After this time, the session expires and will be automatically removed from the cache. Default value is 300 seconds (5 minutes).

**TLSSessionPurgeInterval**: Specifies how often the session cache should remove the expired TLS sessions.Use this property to specify the time interval of purging the expired TLS sessions from the session cache. Default value is 60 seconds (1 minute).

**UseCRLObjectCaching**: Specifies whether reuse of loaded CRL objects is enabled.This setting enables or disables the caching of CRL objects. When set to true (the default value), the system checks if a CRL object is already loaded in memory before attempting to load a new instance. If the object is found, the existing instance is reused, and its reference count is incremented to track its usage. When the reference count reaches zero, indicating that no references to the object remain, the system will free the object from memory. This setting enhances performance by minimizing unnecessary object instantiation and promotes efficient memory management, particularly in scenarios where CRL objects are frequently used.

**UseInternalRandom**: Switches between SecureBlackbox-own and platform PRNGs.Allows to switch between internal/native PRNG implementation and the one provided by the platform.

**UseLegacyAdESValidation**: Enables legacy AdES validation mode.Use this setting to switch the AdES component to the validation approach that was used in SBB 2020/SBB 2022 (less attention to temporal details).

**UseOCSPResponseObjectCaching**: Specifies whether reuse of loaded OCSP response objects is enabled.This setting enables or disables the caching of OCSP response objects. When set to true (the default value), the system checks if a OCSP response object is already loaded in memory before attempting to load a new instance. If the object is found, the existing instance is reused, and its reference count is incremented to track its usage. When the reference count reaches zero, indicating that no references to the object remain, the system will free the object from memory. This setting enhances performance by minimizing unnecessary object instantiation and promotes efficient memory management, particularly in scenarios where OCSP response objects are frequently used.

**UseOwnDNSResolver**: Specifies whether the client components should use own DNS resolver.Set this global property to false to force all the client components to use the DNS resolver provided by the target OS instead of using own one.

**UseSharedSystemStorages**: Specifies whether the validation engine should use a global per-process copy of the system certificate stores.Set this global property to false to make each validation run use its own copy of system certificate stores.

**UseSystemNativeSizeCalculation**: An internal CryptoAPI access tweak.This is an internal setting. Please do not use it unless instructed by the support team.

**UseSystemOAEPAndPSS**: Enforces or disables the use of system-driven RSA OAEP and PSS computations.This global setting defines who is responsible for performing RSA-OAEP and RSA-PSS computations where the private key is stored in a Windows system store and is exportable. If set to true, SBB will delegate the computations to Windows via a CryptoAPI call. Otherwise, it will export the key material and perform the computations using its own OAEP/PSS implementation.

This setting only applies to certificates originating from a Windows system store.

**UseSystemRandom**: Enables or disables the use of the OS PRNG.Use this global property to enable or disable the use of operating system-driven pseudorandom number generation.

**XMLRDNDescriptorName[OID]**: Defines an OID mapping to descriptor names for the certificate's IssuerRDN or SubjectRDN.This property defines custom mappings between Object Identifiers (OIDs) and descriptor names. This mapping specifies how the certificate's issuer and subject information (ds:IssuerRDN and ds:SubjectRDN elements respectively) are represented in XML signatures.

The property accepts comma-separated values where the first descriptor name is used when the OID is mapped, and subsequent values act as aliases for parsing.

Syntax:

```text
Config("XMLRDNDescriptorName[OID]=PrimaryName,Alias1,Alias2");
```

Where:

OID: The Object Identifier from the certificate's IssuerRDN or SubjectRDN that you want to map.

PrimaryName: The main descriptor name used in the XML signature when the OID is encountered.

Alias1, Alias2, ...: Optional alternative names recognized during parsing.

Usage Examples:

Map OID 2.5.4.5 to SERIALNUMBER:

```text
Config("XMLRDNDescriptorName[2.5.4.5]=SERIALNUMBER");
```

Map OID 1.2.840.113549.1.9.1 to E, with aliases EMAIL and EMAILADDRESS:

```text
Config("XMLRDNDescriptorName[1.2.840.113549.1.9.1]=E,EMAIL,EMAILADDRESS");
```

**XMLRDNDescriptorPriority[OID]**: Specifies the priority of descriptor names associated with a specific OID.This property specifies the priority of descriptor names associated with a specific OID that allows to reorder descriptors in the ds:IssuerRDN and ds:SubjectRDN elements during signing.

**XMLRDNDescriptorReverseOrder**: Specifies whether to reverse the order of descriptors in RDN.Specifies whether to reverse the order of descriptors in the ds:IssuerRDN and ds:SubjectRDN elements during XML signing. By default, this property is set to true (as specified in RFC 2253, 2.1).

**XMLRDNDescriptorSeparator**: Specifies the separator used between descriptors in RDN.Specifies the separator used between descriptors in the ds:IssuerRDN and ds:SubjectRDN elements during XML signing. By default, this property is set to ", " value.
