The CMS module is used to digitally sign, encrypt, verify, and decrypt data.
Syntax
IPWorksEncrypt.Cms
Remarks
The CMS class implements the Cryptographic Message Syntax and allow for various cryptographic operations to be performed on data including:
The class can generate and consume message in a variety of formats including PEM, DER (Binary), and SMIME. The EncryptionAlgorithm and SignatureHashAlgorithm are fully configurable and support a variety of industry standard encryption and hash algorithms.
The class supports additional functionality such as Compression, OAEP, and PSS. The GetRecipientInfo and GetSignerCertInfo methods as well as the RecipientInfo and SignerCertInfo events allow for a dynamic and flexible approach to message processing. Certificate may be loaded ahead of time or as-needed from the events.
Signing Notes
Sign digitally signs the input data with the the specified certificate(s). Certificates are specified by calling AddCertificate or setting the Certificates property.OutputFormat specifies the encoding of the output message. Valid values are PEM, DER, and SMIME. IncludeCertificates specifies whether the public certificate is included in the signed message. Additional settings allow further configuration. The following properties are applicable when calling this method:
- Certificates (required)
- DetachedSignature
- EnableCompression
- GenerateSignatureTimestamp

Signature Verification Notes
VerifySignature verifies the signature of the input message.In order to perform signature verification the public signer's certificate must be present or explicitly specified. In many cases the certificate itself is included in the input message and a certificate does not need to explicitly be set. If a certificate does need to be set for signature verification the certificate may be specified by calling AddRecipientCert or setting RecipientCerts.
When this method is called the SignerCertInfo event fires once for each signature on the message. This event provides details about the signer certificate, as well as the signer certificate itself (if present). The information provided via SignerCertInfo may be used to load an appropriate certificate for verification from within the event. If the CertEncoded parameter of SignerCertInfo is populated the certificate required for verification is already present in the message.
The following property are applicable when calling this method:
If the input message is a detached signature, the original data that was signed must be specified in DetachedSignatureData. In addition the DetachedSignature property must be set to True to instruct the class to treat the input message as a detached signature.
If the input message is compressed EnableCompression must be set to True before calling this method.
Input and Output Properties
The class will determine the source and destination of the input and output based on which properties are set.
The order in which the input properties are checked is as follows:
When a valid source is found the search stops. The order in which the output properties are checked is as follows:
- OutputFile
- OutputMessage: The output data is written to this property if no other destination is specified.

This property must be set after all other certificate properties are set. When this property is set, a search is performed in the current certificate store to locate a certificate with a matching subject.
If a matching certificate is found, the property is set to the full subject of the matching certificate.
If an exact match is not found, the store is searched for subjects containing the value of the property.
If a match is still 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.
The certificate subject is a comma-separated list of distinguished name fields and values. For instance, "CN=www.server.com, OU=test, C=US, E=support@nsoftware.com". Common fields and their meanings are as follows:
| Field | Meaning |
| CN | Common Name. This is commonly a hostname like www.server.com. |
| O | Organization |
| OU | Organizational Unit |
| L | Locality |
| S | State |
| C | Country |
| E | Email Address |
If a field value contains a comma, it must be quoted.
If an error occurs when setting this property an error will not be thrown. This property has a related method which will throw an error:

DecryptAndVerifySignature Method (CMS Module)
Decrypts and verifies the signature of the current message.
Syntax
public func decryptAndVerifySignature() throws -> Void
- (void)decryptAndVerifySignature;
Remarks
This method decrypts the input data and verifies the signature. Decryption certificates are specified by calling AddCertificate or setting the Certificates property. Certificates used to verify the signature will be taken from the message itself if included, or from the SignerCerts property.
If the certificate used to encrypt the message is not known ahead of time GetRecipientInfo may be called prior to calling Decrypt to obtain information about the recipient (the entity the for which the message was encrypted). If GetRecipientInfo is called, the RecipientInfo event is fired with information about the recipient which may be used to load an appropriate decryption certificate.
In order to perform signature verification the public signer's certificate must be present or explicitly specified. In many cases the certificate itself is included in the input message and a certificate does not need to explicitly be set. If a certificate does need to be set for signature verification the certificate may be specified by calling AddRecipientCert or setting RecipientCerts.
When this method is called the SignerCertInfo event fires once for each signature on the message. This event provides details about the signer certificate, as well as the signer certificate itself (if present). The information provided via SignerCertInfo may be used to load an appropriate certificate for verification from within the event. If the CertEncoded parameter of SignerCertInfo is populated the certificate required for verification is already present in the message.
The following properties are applicable when calling this method:
- Certificates (Required)
- DetachedSignature
- DetachedSignatureData
- EnableCompression
- SignerCerts
If the input message is a detached signature, the original data that was signed must be specified in DetachedSignatureData. In addition the DetachedSignature property must be set to True to instruct the class to treat the input message as a detached signature.
If the input message is compressed EnableCompression must be set to True before calling this method.
Input and Output Properties
The class will determine the source and destination of the input and output based on which properties are set.
The order in which the input properties are checked is as follows:

Error Event (CMS Module)
Fired when information is available about errors during data delivery.
Syntax
- (void)onError:(int)errorCode :(NSString*)description;
Remarks
The Error event is fired in case of exceptional conditions during message processing. Normally the class .
The ErrorCode parameter contains an error code, and the Description parameter contains a textual description of the error. For a list of valid error codes and their descriptions, please refer to the Error Codes section.
Log Event (CMS Module)
Fires with log information during processing.
Syntax
- (void)onLog:(int)logLevel :(NSString*)message :(NSString*)logType;
Remarks
This event fires during processing with log information. The level of detail that is logged is controlled via the LogLevel.
LogLevel indicates the level of message. Possible values are:
| 0 (None) | No events are logged. |
| 1 (Info - default) | Informational events are logged. |
| 2 (Verbose) | Detailed data is logged. |
| 3 (Debug) | Debug data is logged. |
LogMessage is the log entry.
LogType indicates the type of log. Possible values are:
- "INFO"
- "ENCRYPT"
- "COMPRESS"
- "SIGN"
- "DECRYPT"
- "DECOMPRESS"
- "VERIFY"
- "DEBUG"
RecipientInfo Event (CMS Module)
This event is fired for each recipient certificate of the encrypted message.
Syntax
func onRecipientInfo(issuer: String, serialNumber: String, subjectKeyIdentifier: String, encryptionAlgorithm: String)
- (void)onRecipientInfo:(NSString*)issuer :(NSString*)serialNumber :(NSString*)subjectKeyIdentifier :(NSString*)encryptionAlgorithm;
Remarks
When GetRecipientInfo is called on a valid encrypted message, this event will fire once for each recipient certificate that the message has been encrypted for. This may be used to identify the certificate to load.
Issuer is the subject of the issuer certificate.
SerialNumber is the serial number of the encryption certificate.
SubjectKeyIdentifier is the X.509 subjectKeyIdentifier extension value of the certificate used to sign the message encoded as a hex string.
EncryptionAlgorithm is the encryption algorithm used to encrypt the message. Possible values are as follows:
- "3DES"
- "DES"
- "RC2CBC40"
- "RC2CBC64"
- "RC2CBC128" or "RC2"
- "AESCBC128" or "AES"
- "AESCBC192"
- "AESCBC256"
- "AESGCM128" or "AESGCM"
- "AESGCM192"
- "AESGCM256"
SignerCertInfo Event (CMS Module)
Fired during verification of the signed message.
Syntax
func onSignerCertInfo(issuer: String, serialNumber: String, subjectKeyIdentifier: String, certEncoded: Data)
- (void)onSignerCertInfo:(NSString*)issuer :(NSString*)serialNumber :(NSString*)subjectKeyIdentifier :(NSData*)certEncoded;
Remarks
During verification, this event will be raised while parsing the signer's certificate information. The parameters which are populated depends on the options used when the message was originally signed. This information may be used to select the correct certificate for SignerCerts in order to verify the signature. The following parameters may be populated.
Issuer specifies the subject of the issuer of the certificate used to sign the message.
SerialNumber is the serial number of the certificate used to sign the message.
SubjectKeyIdentifier is the X.509 subjectKeyIdentifier extension value of the certificate used to sign the message encoded as a hex string.
CertEncoded is the PEM (base64 encoded) public certificate needed to verify the signature. Note: when this value is present the class will automatically use this value to perform signature verification.
The SignerCerts property may be set from within this event. In this manner the decision of which signer certificate to load may be delayed until the parameters of this event are inspected and the correct certificate can be located and loaded.
Config Settings (CMS Module)
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 method.CMS Config Settings
The default value is 1.2.840.113549.1.7.1 which is the OID for id-data.
NOTE: This config may only be used when the UseCryptoAPI is true.
The default value is True.
The default value for IncludeHeaders is true.
Note: This setting is only applicable to when OutputFormat is set to SMIME.
When set to False, only the message will be processed, MIME part headers will not be generated or stripped.
The default value for IncludeInternalHeaders is False.
Note: This setting is only applicable to when OutputFormat is set to SMIME.
If no value is specified and a value cannot be automatically determined the default value 7bit will be used.
Note: This setting is only applicable when OutputFormat is set to SMIME and when calling Sign or SignAndEncrypt and DetachedSignature is True.
If no value is specified and a value cannot be automatically determined the default value text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" will be used.
Note: This setting is only applicable when OutputFormat is set to SMIME and when calling Sign or SignAndEncrypt and DetachedSignature is True.
| 0 (None) | No events are logged. |
| 1 (Info - default) | Informational events are logged. |
| 2 (Verbose) | Detailed data is logged. |
| 3 (Debug) | Debug data is logged. |

- "SHA384"
- "SHA512"
- "RIPEMD160"
- "MD2"
- "MD5"
- "MD5SHA1"
Note: This setting is not applicable when UseFIPSCompliantAPI is set to or when the private key of the signing certificate is not exportable since the underlying system implementation does not support separate OAEPRSAHashAlgorithm and OAEPMGF1HashAlgorithm values. In this case the OAEPRSAHashAlgorithm is also used for MGF1.
