SMIME Pipeline Component

Properties Config Settings

The SMIME pipeline component implements the S/MIME standard for encryption and decryption with public key cryptography and X.509 digital certificates.

Remarks

The SMIME pipeline component is used for encrypting, decrypting, signing, and verifying messages. The pipeline component uses the S/MIME V3 standard for encryption and decryption and can also generate and verify RSA digital signatures.

SMIME Encoder Pipeline Component

The Encoder takes an unencrypted/unsigned data entity and generates an SMIME entity as output.

Encrypting

The Encoder will only encrypt incoming data if the EncryptData property is set to True. Encrypting requires that the RecipientCert property is set to a certificate containing the public key that should be used to encrypt the data. The EncryptingAlgorithm and UseOAEP properties can be specified for further control of encryption.

Signing

The Encoder will only sign the data if the SignData property is set to True. Signing requires that the Certificate property is set to a certificate containing the private key that should be used to sign the data. The SigningAlgorithm and UsePSS properties can be specified for further control of the signature.

SMIME Decoder Pipeline Component

The Decoder takes an encrypted/signed SMIME entity and will decrypt/verify the message and produce the original message.

Decrypting

The Decoder will only attempt to decrypt incoming data if the DecryptData property is set to True. Decryption requires that the Certificate property is set to a certificate containing the private key that can decrypt the data (the private key that is paired with the public key that was used to encrypt the data). The RequireOAEP property can be set to True to instruct the pipeline component to throw an error if the data was not encrypted with OAEP (Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding).

Verifying Signatures

The Decoder will only attempt to verify the signature of the incoming data if the VerifySignature property is set to True. Verification requires that the certificate used to sign the data was attached to the message, or that the SignerCert property is set to the signer's certificate. The RequirePSS property can be set to True to instruct the pipeline component to throw an error if the data was not signed with RSA-PSS (RSA Probabilistic Signature Scheme).

Default Value: ""

If the certificate store is of a type that requires a password, this property is used to specify that password in order to open the certificate store.

StoreType
CertStoreTypes
Default Value: 0

The type of certificate store for this certificate.

The adapter supports both public and private keys in a variety of formats. When the cstAuto value is used, the adapter will automatically determine the type. This field can take one of the following values:


0 (cstUser - default)	For Windows, this specifies that the certificate store is a certificate store owned by the current user. Note: This store type is not available in Java.
1 (cstMachine)	For Windows, this specifies that the certificate store is a machine store. Note: This store type is not available in Java.
2 (cstPFXFile)	The certificate store is the name of a PFX (PKCS#12) file containing certificates.
3 (cstPFXBlob)	The certificate store is a string (binary or Base64-encoded) representing a certificate store in PFX (PKCS#12) format.
4 (cstJKSFile)	The certificate store is the name of a Java Key Store (JKS) file containing certificates. Note: This store type is only available in Java.

The ListStoreCertificates method may be called after setting CertStoreType to `cstPKCS11`, CertStorePassword to the PIN, and CertStore to the full path of the PKCS#11 DLL. The certificate information returned in the CertList event's `CertEncoded` parameter may be saved for later use. When using a certificate, pass the previously saved security key information as the Store and set StorePassword to the PIN. Code Example. SSH Authentication with Security Key: `certmgr.CertStoreType = CertStoreTypes.cstPKCS11; certmgr.OnCertList += (s, e) => { secKeyBlob = e.CertEncoded; }; certmgr.CertStore = @"C:\Program Files\OpenSC Project\OpenSC\pkcs11\opensc-pkcs11.dll"; certmgr.CertStorePassword = "123456"; //PIN certmgr.ListStoreCertificates(); sftp.SSHCert = new Certificate(CertStoreTypes.cstPKCS11, secKeyBlob, "123456", "*"); sftp.SSHUser = "test"; sftp.SSHLogon("myhost", 22);`
99 (cstAuto)	The store type is automatically detected from the input data. This setting may be used with both public and private keys and can detect any of the supported formats automatically.

Subject
String
Default Value: ""

The subject of the certificate used for client authentication.

When this property is set, a search is performed in the current certificate store certificate with matching subject.

If an exact match is not found, the store is searched for subjects containing the value of the property.

When setting the property to a partial subject, CN= should be omitted. For example, the following code would find the certificate with subject CN=Test Certificate, OU=People, C=US

Example (Searching with partial subject)

Control.CertSubject = "Test"

If a match is not found, the property is set to an empty string, and no certificate is selected.

The special value "*" picks a random certificate in the certificate store.

If a matching certificate is found, Subject is set to the full subject of the matching certificate.

Thumbprint
String (read-only)
Default Value: ""

The thumbprint of the certificate.

This field is used to specify the thumbprint of the certificate. When there are multiple certificates in the store that have the same subject, the thumbprint will be used to distinguish between them.

If true, the adapter will include the internal message part headers. When set to false, only the message will be encoded.

The default value for IncludeInternalHeaders is true.

UseMimeHeaderFilename: Tells the adapter to set the Filename based on the MIME headers.

If true, the adapter will use the filename found in the MIME headers to set the SourceFileName. It first checks for the filename in "Content-Disposition", then the filename in "Content-Type", and then the name in "Content-Type".

The default value for UseMimeHeaderFilename is false.

Supported Macros

The adapter also supports the following Macros. These values are not case sensitive and would be supplied to a property in the form %MacroName%.

TempThis is resolved to the full path to the system's temporary directory. MessageIDGlobally unique identifier (GUID) of the message in BizTalk Server. SourceFileNameThe original file name. This includes the extension and excludes the file path, for example, Sample.xml SourceFileNameNoExtThe original file name without the extension or file path, for example, Sample RemoteFileNameThe name of the file as it was uploaded to the remote server. This includes the extension and excludes the file path, for example, Sample.xml. Valid only for AS3, FTP, and SFTP Send Adapters. DestinationPartyName of the destination party. DestinationPartyQualifierQualifier of the destination party. SourcePartyName of the source party. SourcePartyQualifierQualifier of the source party. DateTime:CustomFormatThis special value allows you to specify your own custom time format. For instance DateTime:yyyy would be resolved to the 4 digit year. DateThe date format yyyy-MM-dd. DateTimeThe date format yyyy-MM-ddThhmmss. TimeThe date format hhmmss. DateTime_BTS2000The date format yyyyMMddhhmmssf. DateTime.TZThe date format yyyy-MM-ddThhmmsszzz.
