# PDFVerifier Class

The PDFVerifier class verifies signatures over PDF documents.

## Syntax

```text
class secureblackbox.PDFVerifier
```

## Remarks

Use PDFVerifier to validate electronic signatures over PDF documents. Generic and PAdES signatures are supported.

```text
PDFVerifier verifier = new PDFVerifier();

// Set the signed PDF document that you want to verify
verifier.setInputFile("signed.pdf");

verifier.verify();

// Verification information
for (int idx = 0; idx < verifier.getSignatures().size(); idx++) {
  System.out.println("Signature " + (idx + 1));
  System.out.println("  Timestamp:         " + verifier.getSignatures().item(idx).getValidatedSigningTime());

  System.out.print("  Validation Result: " + verifier.getSignatures().item(idx).getSignatureValidationResult() + ", ");
  switch (verifier.getSignatures().item(idx).getSignatureValidationResult()) {
    case svtValid:
      System.out.println("The signature is valid.");
      break;
    case svtUnknown:
      System.out.println("Signature validity is unknown.");
      break;
    case svtCorrupted:
      System.out.println("The signature is corrupted.");
      break;
    case svtSignerNotFound:
      System.out.println("Failed to acquire the signing certificate. The signature cannot be validated.");
      break;
    case svtFailure:
      System.out.println("General failure.");
      break;
    default:
      System.out.println("Signature validity is unknown.");
      break;
  }
}
```

PDFVerifier validates each signature from two perspectives: the integrity and validity of the signature itself (i.e. its correspondence to the document data it covers), and the validity and trustworthiness of the signing certificate chain. These two signature aspects are generally independent of each other: the signature may be valid but the chain may not be trusted, or the other way around, the chain may be trusted but the integrity of the signature may be violated. Under normal circumstances both the signature **and** the chain must be valid for the signature to be considered good.

To initiate the validation, assign the path to the signed PDF file to the [input_file](#input_file-property) property (alternatively, you can provide it in a memory buffer via the [input_bytes](#input_bytes-property) property), and call the [verify](#verify-method) method. For every signature located in the document, PDFVerifier will fire the [on_signature_found](#on_signature_found-event) event. This event lets you specify whether you want PDFVerifier to validate the signature, the chain, or both.

Note: it does not mean that any of the two is optional. This API lets you be flexible in how you validate documents in your code in accordance with the specifics of your application and its usage scenarios. For example, if your trust environment relies on certificate pinning, validating the chain by PDFVerifier internally may cause unnecessary burden on the system, in which case it may be reasonable to disable it in the event handler.

Once [on_signature_found](#on_signature_found-event) returns, PDFVerifier proceeds to the signature validation routine in accordance with the provided settings. Upon completion of the validation, the [on_signature_validated](#on_signature_validated-event) event is fired, and the validation results are separately provided via the  and  fields of the associated signature object. Other information about the signature can be accessed via the signatures property.

The PDF format uses incremental updates to introduce changes to the document. This implies that a signature may cover not the whole document, but rather a certain revision of it. Strictly speaking, every signature in a PDF document, apart from perhaps the last one, covers just some part of the document. In most cases that part matches the revision of the document that existed before all the subsequent signatures had been added.

Because of these specifics of the PDF format, it is crucially important to understand which part of the document is covered by a specific signature. Use the  field to establish the scope of a signature. The revision of the document covered by that specific signature ranges from byte 0 to CoverageEndsAt. Alternatively, you can use the [get_signed_version](#get_signed_version-method) method to extract the signed revision to a file.

### Useful settings and properties

The following properties of PDFVerifier may be handy when working with this class:

- [offline_mode](#offline_mode-property) lets you validate the document without contacting online revocation sources. Paired with switched-off system trust settings, it can be used to establish the long-term validity of the document and the completeness of the validation material included in it.
- [revocation_check](#revocation_check-property) lets you adjust the revocation checking preferences.
-  returns the signing time as recorded in the embedded signature timestamp. This is in contrast to , which returns the signing time as specified by the signer.
-  is a great way to find out the details of chain validation failures. This property returns a comprehensive validation log that reports all the issues encountered during the validation.
- If the document is encrypted (in addition to being signed), the [on_encrypted](#on_encrypted-event) event will fire, asking you for the decryption certificate or password.

By default, PDFVerifier uses the system trust settings to establish certificate chain validity. You can configure it to use your own, custom validation environment by providing the necessary trust elements via known_certificates, trusted_certificates, known_crls, and other similar properties.

## Syntax

```text
def get_cert_ca_key_id(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 [cert_subject_key_id](#cert_subject_key_id-property) setting, and for lower-level certificates, from the parent certificate's subject key ID extension.

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

This property is read-only.

# cert_type property

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

This property is read-only.

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

This property is read-only.

# cert_curve property

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

## Syntax

```text
def get_cert_curve(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.

```text
def get_cert_key_bits(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 [cert_public_key_bytes](#cert_public_key_bytes-property) or [cert_private_key_bytes](#cert_private_key_bytes-property) property would typically contain auxiliary values, and therefore be longer.

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

This property is read-only.

# cert_key_fingerprint property

Locations of OCSP services that can be used to check this certificate's validity in real time, as recorded by the CA.

## Syntax

```text
def get_cert_ocsp_locations(cert_index: int) -> str: ...
```

## Default Value

""

## Remarks

Locations of OCSP services that can be used to check this certificate's validity in real time, as recorded by the CA.

Set this property before calling the certificate manager's [generate](#CertificateManager_m_Generate) method to propagate it to the new certificate.

The OCSP locations 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 *cert_index* parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the [cert_count](#cert_count-property) property.

## Syntax

```text
def get_cert_private_key_exists(cert_index: int) -> bool: ...
```

## Default Value

FALSE

## Remarks

Indicates whether the certificate has a usable private key associated with it. If it is set to *True*, the certificate can be used for private key operations, such as signing or decryption.

This property is independent from [cert_private_key_bytes](#cert_private_key_bytes-property), and can be set to *True* even if the former is empty. This would imply that the private key is non-exportable, but still can be used for cryptographic operations.

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

This property is read-only.

# cert_private_key_extractable property

## Syntax

```text
def get_cert_subject_key_id(cert_index: int) -> bytes: ...
```

## 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 [cert_subject_key_id](#cert_subject_key_id-property) and [cert_ca_key_id](#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.

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

This property is read-only.

```

## 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.

## Syntax

```text
def get_signature_coverage_ends_at(signature_index: int) -> int: ...
```

## Default Value

0

## Remarks

Indicates the byte offset in the PDF file where signature coverage ends.

PDF generators often use incremental updates to make changes in the documents. This may result in the signature only covering a part of the document (one of the past revisions), but not the subsequent changes.

Use this property to identify the offset where the signature coverage ends. One option is to compare it to the length of the whole document. Alternatively, use the [get_signed_version](#get_signed_version-method) method of the PDFVerifier class to extract the exact revision that was signed.

A value of **-1** indicates that the component could not determine the coverage offset.

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

This property is read-only.

# signature_custom_data property

Uninterpreted custom data to save with the PDF signature.

## Syntax

```text
def get_signature_custom_data(signature_index: int) -> bytes: ...

```text
0   # Unknown1   # Generic2   # BaselineB3   # BaselineT4   # BaselineLT5   # BaselineLTA6   # BES7   # EPES8   # LTV
```

## Default Value

2

## Remarks

Specifies the PAdES signature level.

PAdES standard defines a number of different 'levels' of signatures which can be used for different purposes.

Note that when validating a signature, the LTV modifier may be affected by the validation settings. These include OfflineMode (set it to true to obtain the clean LTV capability) and certificate caching (switch it off to stop earlier validations from affecting the current validation).

The supported levels are:

|  |  |  |
| --- | --- | --- |
| paslUnknown | 0 | Unknown signature level |
| paslGeneric | 1 | Generic signature: Legacy Adobe signature (adbe.pkcs7.detached), corresponds to pstLegacy signature type |
| paslBaselineB | 2 | Baseline B (B-B, basic) |
| paslBaselineT | 3 | Baseline T (B-T, timestamped) |
| paslBaselineLT | 4 | Baseline LT (B-LT, long-term) |
| paslBaselineLTA | 5 | Baseline LTA (B-LTA, long-term with archived timestamp) |
| paslBES | 6 | BES (Basic Electronic Signature) |
| paslEPES | 7 | EPES (Electronic Signature with an Explicit Policy) |
| paslLTV | 8 | LTV (Electronic Signature with with revocation info) |

When creating a signature, some levels require additional settings:

- **paslBaselineT** requires a timestamp server.
- **paslBaselineLT**, **paslBaselineLTA**, and **paslLTV** require deep validation and a timestamp server.
- **paslEPES** requires [signature_policy_id](#signature_policy_id-property), [signature_policy_hash_algorithm](#signature_policy_hash_algorithm-property), and [signature_policy_hash](#signature_policy_hash-property).

When evaluating the level of a PAdES signature, SecureBlackbox uses the following criteria and conditions:

- If the signing chain is found to be invalid or incomplete, the level will be reported as **Baseline-B**, **BES**, or **EPES**, depending on the attributes included in the signature (such as policy details).
- If the signing chain is found to be valid, the signature includes a timestamp, and the timestamp chain is valid (or the IgnoreTimestampChainValidityForLevelDetection config property is set to true), the level will be reported as **Baseline-T**.
- If the Baseline-T conditions above are met, and all the validation material is included in the DSS, the level will be reported as **Baseline-LT**.
- If the Baseline-LT conditions above are met, and the signature is protected by a later document timestamp, the level will be reported as **Baseline-LTA**.
- If the signing chain is found to be valid, the signature includes a timestamp, and the timestamp chain is valid (or the IgnoreTimestampChainValidityForLevelDetection config property is set to true), and all the validation material is included in the DSS *or signature*, and the signature does not meet the Baseline-LT and Baseline-LTA criteria, the level will be reported as LTV. In other words, the LTV level is a relaxed version of Baseline-LT, that allows the validation material to be included in the signature itself and not DSS.

Note: The *LTV-enabled* property reported by Adobe Reader can be misleading, as it does not represent a valid PAdES level. Instead, it is a rather indicative claim that advises that the signature does include some form of an external timestamp (a signature timestamp or a document timestamp) and some piece of validation material, and the signing chain ends up with a local trust anchor. As such, it can be a much weaker property than the Baseline-LT, Baseline-LTA, and LTV levels reported by SecureBlackbox.

# tls_revocation_check property

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

## Syntax

```text
def get_tls_revocation_check() -> int: ...

```

## 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.

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

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

This property is read-only.

# tls_server_cert_self_signed property

Indicates whether the certificate is self-signed (root) or signed by an external CA.

## Syntax

```text
def get_tls_server_cert_self_signed(tls_server_cert_index: int) -> bool: ...
```

## Default Value

FALSE

## Remarks

Indicates whether the certificate is self-signed (root) or signed by an external CA.

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

This property is read-only.

# tls_server_cert_serial_number property

Returns the certificate's serial number.

## Syntax

```text
def get_tls_server_cert_serial_number(tls_server_cert_index: int) -> bytes: ...
```

## Remarks

Returns the certificate's serial number.

The serial number is a binary string that uniquely identifies a certificate among others issued by the same CA. According to the X.509 standard, the (issuer, serial number) pair should be globally unique to facilitate chain building.

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

This property is read-only.

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

This property is read-only.

# tls_server_cert_subject_rdn property

A list of Property=Value pairs that uniquely identify the certificate holder (subject).

## Syntax

```text
def get_tls_server_cert_subject_rdn(tls_server_cert_index: int) -> str: ...
```

## Default Value

""

## Remarks

A list of *Property=Value* pairs that uniquely identify the certificate holder (subject).

Depending on the purpose of the certificate and the policies of the CA that issued it, the values included in the subject record may differ drastically and contain business or personal names, web URLs, email addresses, and other data.

Example: */C=US/O=Oranges and Apples, Inc./OU=Accounts Receivable/1.2.3.4.5=Value with unknown OID/CN=Margaret Watkins*.

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

This property is read-only.

# tls_server_cert_valid_from property

## Syntax

```text
def get_tls_server_cert_valid_from(tls_server_cert_index: int) -> str: ...
```

## Default Value

""

## Remarks

The time point at which the certificate becomes valid, in UTC.

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

This property is read-only.

# tls_server_cert_valid_to property

The time point at which the certificate expires, in UTC.

## Syntax

```text
def get_tls_server_cert_valid_to(tls_server_cert_index: int) -> str: ...
```

## Default Value

""

## Remarks

The time point at which the certificate expires, in UTC.

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

This property is read-only.

# trusted_cert_count property

The number of records in the TrustedCert arrays.

## Syntax

```text
def get_trusted_cert_count() -> int: ...
def set_trusted_cert_count(value: int) -> None: ...
trusted_cert_count = property(get_trusted_cert_count, set_trusted_cert_count)
```

## Default Value

0

## Remarks

This property controls the size of the following arrays:

- [trusted_cert_bytes](#trusted_cert_bytes-property)
- [trusted_cert_handle](#trusted_cert_handle-property)

The array indices start at *0* and end at *trusted_cert_count - 1*.

# trusted_cert_bytes property

Returns the raw certificate data in DER format.

## Syntax

```text
def get_trusted_cert_bytes(trusted_cert_index: int) -> bytes: ...
```

## Remarks

Returns the raw certificate data in DER format.

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

This property is read-only.

# trusted_cert_handle property

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

## Syntax

```text
def get_trusted_cert_handle(trusted_cert_index: int) -> int: ...
def set_trusted_cert_handle(trusted_cert_index: int, value: int) -> 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());
```

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

# validation_moment property

The time point at which signature validity is to be established.

## Syntax

```text
def get_validation_moment() -> str: ...
def set_validation_moment(value: str) -> None: ...
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.

# close method

Closes an opened document.

## Syntax

```text
def close(save_changes: bool) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

Use this method to close a previously opened document. The *SaveChanges* parameter is only taken into account if the document was opened in edit mode.

# 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](#pdfverifier-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](#pdfverifier-config-settings), you must call *Config("PROPERTY")*. The value will be returned as a string.

# do_action method

Performs an additional action.

## Syntax

```text
def do_action(action_id: str, action_params: str) -> str: ...
```

## Remarks

do_action is a generic method available in every class. It is used to perform an additional action introduced after the product major release. The list of actions is not fixed, and may be flexibly extended over time.

The unique identifier (case insensitive) of the action is provided in the *ActionID* parameter.

*ActionParams* contains the value of a single parameter, or a list of multiple parameters for the action in the form of *PARAM1=VALUE1;PARAM2=VALUE2;...*.

Common ActionIDs:

|  |  |  |  |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Action | Parameters | Returned value | Description |
| ResetTrustedListCache | none | none | Clears the cached list of trusted lists. |
| ResetCertificateCache | none | none | Clears the cached certificates. |
| ResetCRLCache | none | none | Clears the cached CRLs. |
| ResetOCSPResponseCache | none | none | Clears the cached OCSP responses. |

# get_attached_bytes method

Saves a PDF attachment to a byte array.

## Syntax

```text
def get_attached_bytes(index: int) -> bytes: ...
```

## Remarks

Use this method to retrieve the contents of an attached file as a byte array.

# get_attached_file method

Saves a PDF attachment to a file.

## Syntax

```text
def get_attached_file(index: int, path: str) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

Use this method to retrieve the contents of an attached file and save it to a file.

# get_signed_version method

Returns the part of the document that is covered by the signature.

## Syntax

```text
def get_signed_version(sig_label: str) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

Use this method to retrieve the revision of the document that is covered by the *SigLabel* signature.

PDF documents often use the incremental updates approach, with any changes being appended to the document without altering the existing revision. This may lead to situations where a signature only covers a part of the document (one of the past revisions), but not the subsequent changes. This method provides means to extract the revision that is actually certified by the signature.

It is recommended that you use this method when validating signatures to make sure the signature covers what you expect it to cover.

An alternative to this method is to check the  field of the signature object and match it to the document length.

# open method

Opens a document for verifying or removing signatures.

## Syntax

```text
def open(edit_mode: bool) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

Use this method to open a document for verifying or removing signatures, or for extracting signed content. When finished, call [close](#close-method) to complete the operation and release any allocated resources.

Set *EditMode* to true to open the document in edit mode (only useful if you intend to remove signatures).

# reset method

Resets the class settings.

## Syntax

```text
def reset() -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

reset is a generic method available in every class.

# revalidate method

Revalidates a signature in accordance with current settings.

## Syntax

```text
def revalidate(sig_label: str) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

Use this method to revalidate a signature in the opened PDF document.

# select_info method

Select signature information for a specific entity.

## Syntax

```text
def select_info(entity_label: str, info_type: int, clear_selection: bool) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

Use this method to select (or filter) signature-related information for a specific signature element.

Provide the unique label of the entity that you are interested in via the *EntityLabel* parameter. Use one of the following filters, or their combination, to specify what information you are interested in:

|  |  |  |
| --- | --- | --- |
| sitEntity | 1 | Select the current entity |
| sitParentEntity | 2 | Select the parent entity of the current entity |
| sitTimestamps | 4 | Select all timestamps covering the current entity |
| sitSignatures | 8 | Select all signatures covering the current entity |
| sitSigningChain | 16 | Select the signing chain of the current entity |
| sitEmbeddedCertificates | 256 | Select all certificates embedded in the current entity |
| sitEmbeddedCRLs | 512 | Select all CRLs embedded in the current entity |
| sitEmbeddedOCSPs | 1024 | Select all OCSP responses embedded in the current entity |
| sitEmbeddedRevInfo | 1792 | Select the whole pack of embedded revocation information (certificates, CRLs and OCSPs) |
| sitUsedCertificates | 4096 | Select all the certificates used to validate this entity's chain |
| sitUsedCRLs | 8192 | Select all the CRLs used to validate this entity's chain |
| sitUsedOCSPs | 16384 | Select all the OCSP responses used to validate this entity's chain |
| sitUsedRevInfo | 28672 | Select the whole pack of revocation information used to validate this entity's chain (certificates, CRLs, OCSP responses) |
| sitAttributes | 65536 | Select this entity's CMS attributes |
| sitReferences | 131072 | Select this entity's XML references |
| sitSignedParts | 262144 | Select this entity's signed parts |

Following the call, the relevant pieces of information will be copied to the respective component properties (Certificates, CRLs, OCSPs). Note that you can accumulate information in the properties by making repeated calls to select_info and keeping *ClearSelection* set to false.

This method is useful if you would like to read/display detailed information about a particular signature or timestamp.

# unsign method

Deletes a signature from the document.

## Syntax

```text
def unsign(sig_label: str, unsign_kind: int) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

Use this method to delete an existing signature from the document. Use the *SigLabel* parameter to specify the signature to be removed.

Unsigning is different from [get_signed_version](#get_signed_version-method). The latter returns the revision of the document *including* the mentioned signature (thus removing anything added after that signature was created). unsign removes the signature completely by carving it out of the document.

For multi-signature documents, the unsign method removes the signature by marking its objects as removed in a new incremental update. A deleted signature might be present in the signature panel in Adobe as the deleted signature. If, for example, in the multi-signature document the last signature should be removed without any trace of the last signature, then [get_signed_version](#get_signed_version-method) method should be used.

The following unsign kinds are currently supported:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| uskDefault (0) | The default option. |
| uskFull (1) | Remove the signature fully. This is also the default option. |
| uskKeepField (2) | Only remove the signature, but keep the form field it is in. |
| uskKeepAppearance (3) | Remove the signature, but keep the form field and its widget. |

Note: *SigLabel* set to "" removes all signatures in the document.

# verify method

Verifies a signed PDF document.

## Syntax

```text
def verify() -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

Use this method to validate all signatures in a PDF document.

This method walks through a signed document and reports every signature via the [on_signature_found](#on_signature_found-event) event. Subscribe to the event to be notified about the signatures and adjust validation settings on the fly.

Upon completion of this method, the signature details will be published in the signatures property.

This method only validates the signatures, but does not check their coverage. It is a good idea to use mechanisms such as [get_signed_version](#get_signed_version-method) or  to ensure that the signature covers the expected document revision.

# on_chain_element_download event

Fires when there is a need to download a chain element from an online source.

## Syntax

```text
class PDFVerifierChainElementDownloadEventParams(object):
  @property
  def kind() -> int: ...

  @property
  def cert_rdn() -> str: ...

  @property
  def ca_cert_rdn() -> str: ...

  @property
  def location() -> str: ...

@on_chain_element_download.setter
def on_chain_element_download(event_hook: Callable[[PDFVerifierChainElementDownloadEventParams], None]) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

Subscribe to this event to be notified about validation element retrievals. Use the *Action* parameter to suppress the download if required.

|  |  |  |
| --- | --- | --- |
| veaAuto | 0 | Handle the action automatically (the default behaviour) |
| veaContinue | 1 | Accept the request implied by the event (accept the certificate, allow the object retrieval) |
| veaReject | 2 | Reject the request implied by the event (reject the certificate, disallow the object retrieval) |
| veaAcceptNow | 3 | Accept the validated certificate immediately |
| veaAbortNow | 4 | Abort the validation, reject the certificate |

|  |  |  |

# on_chain_validation_progress event

This event is fired multiple times during chain validation to report various stages of the validation procedure.

## Syntax

```text
class PDFVerifierChainValidationProgressEventParams(object):
  @property
  def event_kind() -> str: ...

  @property
  def cert_rdn() -> str: ...

  @property
  def ca_cert_rdn() -> str: ...

@on_chain_validation_progress.setter
def on_chain_validation_progress(event_hook: Callable[[PDFVerifierChainValidationProgressEventParams], None]) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

Subscribe to this event to be notified about chain validation progress. Use the *Action* parameter to alter the validation flow.

The *EventKind* parameter reports the nature of the event being reported. The *CertRDN* and *CACertRDN* parameters report the distinguished names of the certificates that are relevant for the event invocation (one or both can be empty, depending on *EventKind*). Use the *Action* parameter to adjust the validation flow.

|  |  |  |
| --- | --- | --- |
| veaAuto | 0 | Handle the action automatically (the default behaviour) |
| veaContinue | 1 | Accept the request implied by the event (accept the certificate, allow the object retrieval) |
| veaReject | 2 | Reject the request implied by the event (reject the certificate, disallow the object retrieval) |
| veaAcceptNow | 3 | Accept the validated certificate immediately |
| veaAbortNow | 4 | Abort the validation, reject the certificate |

# on_document_loaded event

This event is fired when the document has been loaded into memory.

## Syntax

```text
class PDFVerifierDocumentLoadedEventParams(object):
  @property
  def cancel() -> bool: ...
  @cancel.setter
  def cancel(value) -> None: ...

# In class PDFVerifier:
@property
def on_document_loaded() -> Callable[[PDFVerifierDocumentLoadedEventParams], None]: ...
@on_document_loaded.setter
def on_document_loaded(event_hook: Callable[[PDFVerifierDocumentLoadedEventParams], None]) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

The handler for this event is a good place to check the document structure, which may be useful when preparing the signature. For example, you can use the pages information to find the optimal position for the signature widget.

Set *Cancel* to true to terminate document processing on this stage.

# on_encrypted event

Notifies the application that the document is encrypted and provides recipient certificate details if asymmetric encryption was used to encrypt the document.

## Syntax

```text
class PDFVerifierEncryptedEventParams(object):
  @property
  def cert_used() -> bool: ...

  @property
  def issuer_rdn() -> str: ...

  @property
  def serial_number() -> bytes: ...

  @property
  def subject_key_id() -> bytes: ...

  @property
  def need_credential() -> bool: ...

  @property
  def skip_this() -> bool: ...
  @skip_this.setter
  def skip_this(value) -> None: ...

# In class PDFVerifier:
@property
def on_encrypted() -> Callable[[PDFVerifierEncryptedEventParams], None]: ...
@on_encrypted.setter
def on_encrypted(event_hook: Callable[[PDFVerifierEncryptedEventParams], None]) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

The class fires this event when processing encrypted documents to report the fact of encryption and pass certificate parameters to the user.

This event fires repeatedly for each encryption mechanism used in the document until the user provides the correct credential via the decryption_certificate or [password](#password-property) property (depending on the encryption method used), or sets *SkipThis* to true.

The *CertUsed* parameter specifies the encryption method used. If set to true, it indicates that the document uses asymmetric (certificate-based) encryption. In that case, the *IssuerRDN*, *SerialNumber*, and *SubjectKeyID* parameters provide the details of the encryption certificate. Note that the document can be encrypted with more than one certificate (or have "more than one recipient"), in which case each certificate will invoke its own on_encrypted event loop.

*CertUsed* set to false indicates that the document uses password encryption. In this case, provide the password via the [password](#password-property) property.

The *NeedCredential* parameter specifies whether the correct credential is already available to the class or still needs to be set. One example where *NeedCredential* would be set to false is where it had been provided by the application prior to processing the document (e.g. by setting the [password](#password-property) property to a known pre-defined value). If *NeedCredential* is set to true, you must provide the valid credential for the decryption process to succeed.

# on_error event

Information about errors during signing/validation.

## Syntax

```text
class PDFVerifierErrorEventParams(object):
  @property
  def error_code() -> int: ...

  @property
  def description() -> str: ...

# In class PDFVerifier:
@property
def on_error() -> Callable[[PDFVerifierErrorEventParams], None]: ...
@on_error.setter
def on_error(event_hook: Callable[[PDFVerifierErrorEventParams], None]) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

The event is fired in case of exceptional conditions during PDF processing.

*ErrorCode* contains an error code and *Description* contains a textual description of the error.

# on_notification event

This event notifies the application about an underlying control flow event.

## Syntax

```text
class PDFVerifierNotificationEventParams(object):
  @property
  def event_id() -> str: ...

  @property
  def event_param() -> str: ...

# In class PDFVerifier:
@property
def on_notification() -> Callable[[PDFVerifierNotificationEventParams], None]: ...
@on_notification.setter
def on_notification(event_hook: Callable[[PDFVerifierNotificationEventParams], None]) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

The class fires this event to let the application know about some event, occurrence, or milestone in the class. For example, it may fire to report completion of the document processing. The list of events being reported is not fixed, and may be flexibly extended over time.

The unique identifier of the event is provided in the *EventID* parameter. *EventParam* contains any parameters accompanying the occurrence. Depending on the type of the class, the exact action it is performing, or the document being processed, one or both may be omitted.

This class can fire this event with the following *EventID* values:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| DocumentLoaded | Notifies the application that the document has been loaded. This is a backward-compatibility-only notification. Use OnDocumentLoaded event instead. |
| SignaturesLoaded | Notifies the application that the component has finished loading signatures. |
| BeforeTimestamp | This event is fired before a timestamp is requested from the timestamping authority. Use the event handler to modify TSA and HTTP settings. |
| TimestampError | This event is only fired if the class failed to obtain a timestamp from the timestamping authority. The EventParam parameter contains extended error info. |
| TimestampRequest | A timestamp is requested from the custom timestamping authority. This event is only fired if timestamp_server was set to a virtual:// URI. The EventParam parameter contains the TSP request (or the plain hash, depending on the value provided to timestamp_server), in base16, that needs to be sent to the TSA. Use the event handler to send the request to the TSA. Upon receiving the response, assign it, in base16, to the TimestampResponse configuration property. |

# on_signature_found event

Signifies the start of signature validation.

## Syntax

```text
class PDFVerifierSignatureFoundEventParams(object):
  @property
  def index() -> int: ...

  @property
  def entity_label() -> str: ...

  @property
  def issuer_rdn() -> str: ...

def on_signature_found() -> Callable[[PDFVerifierSignatureFoundEventParams], None]: ...
@on_signature_found.setter
def on_signature_found(event_hook: Callable[[PDFVerifierSignatureFoundEventParams], None]) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

This event tells the application that signature validation is about to start, and provides the details about the signer's certificate via its *IssuerRDN*, *SerialNumber*, and *SubjectKeyID* parameters. It fires for every signature located in the verified document or message.

The *CertFound* parameter is set to True if the class has found the needed certificate in one of the known locations, and to False otherwise, in which case you must provide it manually via the known_certificates property.

Signature validation consists of two independent stages: cryptographic signature validation and chain validation. Separate validation results are reported for each, with the  and  properties respectively.

Use the *ValidateSignature* and *ValidateChain* parameters to tell the verifier which stages to include in the validation.

# on_signature_validated event

# on_tls_cert_needed event

Fires when a remote TLS party requests a client certificate.

## Syntax

```text
class PDFVerifierTLSCertNeededEventParams(object):
  @property
  def host() -> str: ...

  @property
  def ca_names() -> str: ...

# In class PDFVerifier:
@property
def on_tls_cert_needed() -> Callable[[PDFVerifierTLSCertNeededEventParams], None]: ...
@on_tls_cert_needed.setter
def on_tls_cert_needed(event_hook: Callable[[PDFVerifierTLSCertNeededEventParams], None]) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

This event fires to notify the implementation that a remote TLS server has requested a client certificate. The *Host* parameter identifies the host that makes a request, and the *CANames* parameter (optional, according to the TLS spec) advises on the accepted issuing CAs.

Use the tls_client_chain property in response to this event to provide the requested certificate. Please make sure the client certificate includes the associated private key. Note that you may set the certificates before the connection without waiting for this event to fire.

This event is preceded by the [on_tls_handshake](#on_tls_handshake-event) event for the given host and, if the certificate was accepted, succeeded by the [on_tls_established](#on_tls_established-event) event.

# on_tls_cert_validate event

This event is fired upon receipt of the TLS server's certificate, allowing the user to control its acceptance.

## Syntax

```text
class PDFVerifierTLSCertValidateEventParams(object):
  @property
  def server_host() -> str: ...

  @property
  def server_ip() -> str: ...

  @property
  def accept() -> bool: ...
  @accept.setter
  def accept(value) -> None: ...

# In class PDFVerifier:
@property
def on_tls_cert_validate() -> Callable[[PDFVerifierTLSCertValidateEventParams], None]: ...
@on_tls_cert_validate.setter
def on_tls_cert_validate(event_hook: Callable[[PDFVerifierTLSCertValidateEventParams], None]) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

This event is fired during a TLS handshake. Use the tls_server_chain property to access the certificate chain. In general, classes may contact a number of TLS endpoints during their work, depending on their configuration.

*Accept* is assigned in accordance with the outcome of the internal validation check performed by the class, and can be adjusted if needed.

# on_tls_established event

Fires when a TLS handshake with Host successfully completes.

## Syntax

```text
class PDFVerifierTLSEstablishedEventParams(object):
  @property
  def host() -> str: ...

  @property
  def version() -> str: ...

  @property
  def ciphersuite() -> str: ...

  @property
  def connection_id() -> bytes: ...

  @property
  def abort() -> bool: ...
  @abort.setter
  def abort(value) -> None: ...

# In class PDFVerifier:
@property
def on_tls_established() -> Callable[[PDFVerifierTLSEstablishedEventParams], None]: ...
@on_tls_established.setter
def on_tls_established(event_hook: Callable[[PDFVerifierTLSEstablishedEventParams], None]) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

The class uses this event to notify the application about a successful completion of a TLS handshake.

The *Version*, *Ciphersuite*, and *ConnectionId* parameters indicate the security parameters of the new connection. Use the *Abort* parameter if you need to terminate the connection at this stage.

# on_tls_handshake event

Fires when a new TLS handshake is initiated, before the handshake commences.

## Syntax

```text
class PDFVerifierTLSHandshakeEventParams(object):
  @property
  def host() -> str: ...

  @property
  def abort() -> bool: ...
  @abort.setter
  def abort(value) -> None: ...

# In class PDFVerifier:
@property
def on_tls_handshake() -> Callable[[PDFVerifierTLSHandshakeEventParams], None]: ...
@on_tls_handshake.setter
def on_tls_handshake(event_hook: Callable[[PDFVerifierTLSHandshakeEventParams], None]) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

The class uses this event to notify the application about the start of a new TLS handshake to *Host*. If the handshake is successful, this event will be followed by the [on_tls_established](#on_tls_established-event) event. If the server chooses to request a client certificate, the [on_tls_cert_needed](#on_tls_cert_needed-event) event will also be fired.

# on_tls_shutdown event

Reports the graceful closure of a TLS connection.

## Syntax

```text
class PDFVerifierTLSShutdownEventParams(object):
  @property
  def host() -> str: ...

# In class PDFVerifier:
@property
def on_tls_shutdown() -> Callable[[PDFVerifierTLSShutdownEventParams], None]: ...
@on_tls_shutdown.setter
def on_tls_shutdown(event_hook: Callable[[PDFVerifierTLSShutdownEventParams], None]) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

This event notifies the application about the closure of an earlier established TLS connection. Note that only graceful connection closures are reported.

# PDFVerifier Config Settings

 The class accepts one or more of the following *configuration settings*. Configuration 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](#config-method) method.

### PDFVerifier Config Settings

**AlternateName**: TBD.TBD

**AsyncDocumentID**: Specifies the document ID for SignAsyncEnd() call.Use this property when working with multi-signature DCAuth requests and responses to uniquely identify documents signed within a larger batch. This value helps ASiCSigner 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 pre-signing (SignAsyncBegin) and completion (SignAsyncEnd) stages.

**BuildApplicationName**: Specifies the application name used to create the signature.Use this property to set the application name used to create the signature.

For advanced settings of the build properties, use the [BuildProperties](#BuildProperties) configuration setting.

**BuildApplicationVersion**: Specifies the application version used to create the signature.Use this property to set the application version used to create the signature.

For advanced settings of the build properties, use the [BuildProperties](#BuildProperties) configuration setting.

**BuildProperties**: Specifies the build properties of the signature.Use this property to set the build properties of the signature in JSON format. Names of JSON fields correspond to the entry names in Adobe's Digital Signature Build Dictionary Specification.

Sample value:

```text
{
   "App":{
      "Name":"TestApp",
      "REx":"8.0.0"
   }
}
```

The above value sets the application name and version used to create the signature. The same result could be achieved using the [BuildApplicationName](#BuildApplicationName) and [BuildApplicationVersion](#BuildApplicationVersion) configuration settings.

Sample value 2:

```text
{
   "App":{
      "Name":"TestApp",
      "REx":"8.0.0",
      "R":524288,
      "Date":"2023-01-01 00:01",
      "OS":[
         "Win"
      ],
      "TrustedMode":true
   },
   "Filter":{
      "Name":"TestFilter",
      "R":131101,
      "Date":"2023-01-01 00:02",
      "PreRelease":true
   },
   "PubSec":{
      "R":13102,
      "Date":"2023-01-01 00:03",
      "PreRelease":true,
      "NonEFontNoWarn":true
   }
}
```

**CachedCRLMaxAge**: Specifies the maximum age of a cached CRL.Use this setting to specify the maximum number of seconds that may pass since a CRL was added to the global cache. When the cached CRL is older than this value, it is disregarded and a new CRL should be fetched.

The default value is 1 day (86400 seconds). A value of 0 disables the absolute CRL age check. See [RevocationCacheAgePolicy](#RevocationCacheAgePolicy) for configuring this setting together with the related cached revocation freshness settings.

**CachedCRLMaxAgeRatio**: Specifies the maximum age of a cached CRL as a percentage of its remaining lifetime.Use this setting to specify the percentage of the CRL's remaining lifetime, measured from the time the CRL was added to the global cache to the CRL's NextUpdate. When this portion of the remaining lifetime has passed, the cached CRL is disregarded and a new CRL should be fetched.

The default value is 50 percent. Values are interpreted in the 0..100 range. A value of 0 disables the CRL ratio check. See [RevocationCacheAgePolicy](#RevocationCacheAgePolicy) for configuring this setting together with the related cached revocation freshness settings.

**CachedCRLOverlapTime**: Specifies the time period before a cached CRL's NextUpdate when it is considered stale and must be refreshed.Use this setting to specify the number of seconds before the NextUpdate time at which the cached CRL should be disregarded, and a new CRL should be fetched.

The default value is 10 minutes (600 seconds). A value of 0 disables the CRL overlap check. See [RevocationCacheAgePolicy](#RevocationCacheAgePolicy) for configuring this setting together with the related cached revocation freshness settings.

This setting is evaluated independently from [CachedCRLMaxAge](#CachedCRLMaxAge) and [CachedCRLMaxAgeRatio](#CachedCRLMaxAgeRatio). If several cached CRL freshness settings are enabled, the cached CRL is used only if it satisfies all of them.

**CachedOCSPResponseMaxAge**: Specifies the maximum age of a cached OCSP response.Use this setting to specify the maximum number of seconds that may pass since an OCSP response was added to the global cache. When the cached OCSP response is older than this value, it is disregarded and a new OCSP response should be fetched.

The default value is 1 hour (3600 seconds). A value of 0 disables the absolute OCSP response age check. This setting is also used to limit open-ended OCSP responses that do not have NextUpdate. See [RevocationCacheAgePolicy](#RevocationCacheAgePolicy) for configuring this setting together with the related cached revocation freshness settings.

**CachedOCSPResponseMaxAgeRatio**: Specifies the maximum age of a cached OCSP response as a percentage of its remaining lifetime.Use this setting to specify the percentage of the OCSP response's remaining lifetime, measured from the time the OCSP response was added to the global cache to the response's NextUpdate. When this portion of the remaining lifetime has passed, the cached OCSP response is disregarded and a new OCSP response should be fetched.

The default value is 50 percent. Values are interpreted in the 0..100 range. Open-ended OCSP responses without NextUpdate ignore this setting; use [CachedOCSPResponseMaxAge](#CachedOCSPResponseMaxAge) to limit their age. A value of 0 disables the OCSP response ratio check. See [RevocationCacheAgePolicy](#RevocationCacheAgePolicy) for configuring this setting together with the related cached revocation freshness settings.

**CachedOCSPResponseOverlapTime**: Specifies the time period before a cached OCSP response's NextUpdate when it is considered stale and must be refreshed.Use this setting to specify the number of seconds before the NextUpdate time at which the cached OCSP response should be disregarded, and a new OCSP response should be fetched.

The default value is 10 minutes (600 seconds). A value of 0 disables the OCSP response overlap check. See [RevocationCacheAgePolicy](#RevocationCacheAgePolicy) for configuring this setting together with the related cached revocation freshness settings.

This setting is evaluated independently from [CachedOCSPResponseMaxAge](#CachedOCSPResponseMaxAge) and [CachedOCSPResponseMaxAgeRatio](#CachedOCSPResponseMaxAgeRatio). If several cached OCSP response freshness settings are enabled, the cached OCSP response is used only if it satisfies all of them.

- **dcrlpPreferComplete** (1): try complete CRLs first, and use delta CRLs only if complete CRLs cannot be retrieved.

**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).

**EncryptionHandlerName**: Specifies the custom security handler PDF-name.Specifies the custom security handler PDF-name for the encryption handler.

**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.

**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.

**HardenedKeyGeneration**: Specifies if hardened Key generation should be used.Specifies if hardened Key generation should be used when the AES-256 encryption algorithm and password encryption are used.

**IgnoreChainValidationErrors**: Whether to ignore any certificate chain validation issues.Enable this property to ignore any chain validation errors when creating a signature. This may be useful if the signature is created in an environment which uses different trust settings to the validation environment.

**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.

**IgnoreTimestampChainValidityForLevelDetection**: Specify whether timestamp chain validity should be ignored during signature level detection.Set this property to True to instruct the validation engine to disregard the validity of the timestamp signer certificate chain when determining the signature level.

TBD

**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.

**IsLTVEnabled**: Indicates LTV-enabled signature.Use this property to check if the signature is *LTV-enabled*. This property is similar to *LTV-enabled* property reported by Adobe Reader.

This is a signature property that can be accessed as "Signatures[index].IsLTVEnabled", or as "IsLTVEnabled" for the current signature (the signature being validated or the last signature).

|  | "SHA512" | The class uses SHA512 hash algorithm. |
|  | "RIPEMD160" | The class uses RIPEMD160 hash algorithm. |
|  | "SHA3_256" | The class uses SHA3-256 hash algorithm. |
|  | "SHA3_384" | The class uses SHA3-384 hash algorithm. |
|  | "SHA3_512" | The class uses SHA3-512 hash algorithm. |
|  | "SHAKE_256" | The class uses SHAKE-256 hash algorithm. |

**PSSUsed**: Whether to use RSASSA-PSS algorithm.Although the RSASSA-PSS algorithm provides better security than a classic RSA scheme (PKCS#1-1.5), please take into account that RSASSA-PSS is a relatively new algorithm which may not be understood by older implementations. This is an alias for *UsePSS*.

**RC4KeyBits**: Specifies the number of key bits used for the RC4 algorithm.Specifies the number of key bits used for the RC4 encryption algorithm.

**RevocationCacheAgePolicy**: Specifies a preset policy for cached CRL and OCSP response freshness settings.Use this setting to configure all cached revocation freshness settings at once. The default value is Default.

Supported values are case-insensitive:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| Default | Applies the AdES default freshness settings: crl:86400;50;600,ocsp:3600;50;600. This means: CRL maximum age 1 day, CRL age ratio 50%, CRL overlap 10 minutes; OCSP response maximum age 1 hour, OCSP response age ratio 50%, OCSP response overlap 10 minutes. This value is the default. |
| Disabled | Sets [CachedCRLOverlapTime](#CachedCRLOverlapTime), [CachedOCSPResponseOverlapTime](#CachedOCSPResponseOverlapTime), [CachedCRLMaxAge](#CachedCRLMaxAge), [CachedOCSPResponseMaxAge](#CachedOCSPResponseMaxAge), [CachedCRLMaxAgeRatio](#CachedCRLMaxAgeRatio), and [CachedOCSPResponseMaxAgeRatio](#CachedOCSPResponseMaxAgeRatio) to 0. It only disables the cache-age freshness policy; it does not disable revocation checking or use of the revocation cache. |
| Short | Uses crl:43200;50;300,ocsp:1800;50;300. This means: CRL maximum age 12 hours, CRL age ratio 50%, CRL overlap 5 minutes; OCSP response maximum age 30 minutes, OCSP response age ratio 50%, OCSP response overlap 5 minutes. |
| Long | Uses crl:518400;50;3600,ocsp:21600;50;3600. This means: CRL maximum age 6 days, CRL age ratio 50%, CRL overlap 1 hour; OCSP response maximum age 6 hours, OCSP response age ratio 50%, OCSP response overlap 1 hour. |
| N | Interprets N as an integer number of seconds. The overlap settings are set to N seconds, CRL maximum age is set to N * 144, OCSP response maximum age is set to N * 6, and both ratio settings are set to 50. |
| crl:<maxAge>;<ratio>;<overlap>,ocsp:<maxAge>;<ratio>;<overlap> | Sets the CRL and OCSP response freshness values explicitly. |

Ratios must be in the 0..100 range. Maximum age and overlap values must be non-negative. Short and Long are time-scale profiles: Long allows older cached revocation information by increasing maximum ages, but also uses a larger pre-expiry safety margin by increasing overlap times. For individual [CachedCRLOverlapTime](#CachedCRLOverlapTime), [CachedOCSPResponseOverlapTime](#CachedOCSPResponseOverlapTime), [CachedCRLMaxAge](#CachedCRLMaxAge), [CachedOCSPResponseMaxAge](#CachedOCSPResponseMaxAge), [CachedCRLMaxAgeRatio](#CachedCRLMaxAgeRatio), and [CachedOCSPResponseMaxAgeRatio](#CachedOCSPResponseMaxAgeRatio) settings, a value of 0 disables the corresponding freshness check. The individual settings remain available for advanced configuration and can be used after this setting to override specific values.

**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.

**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).

**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.

**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.
