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
- IncludeCertificates
- OutputFormat
- SignatureHashAlgorithm
- UsePSS
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:
- SetOutputStream
- OutputFile
- OutputMessage: The output data is written to this property if no other destination is specified.
When using streams, you may need to additionally set CloseInputStreamAfterProcessing or CloseOutputStreamAfterProcessing.

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:
- SetOutputStream
- OutputFile
- OutputMessage: The output data is written to this property if no other destination is specified.
When using streams, you may need to additionally set CloseInputStreamAfterProcessing or CloseOutputStreamAfterProcessing.

Decryption Notes
Decrypt decrypts the input data with the specified certificate. Certificates are specified by calling AddCertificate or setting the Certificates 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.
The following properties are applicable when calling this method:
- Certificates (Required)
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:
- SetOutputStream
- OutputFile
- OutputMessage: The output data is written to this property if no other destination is specified.

Default Value
1
Remarks
This setting specifies which certificates (if any) are included in the signed message. By default the public certificate of the certificate used to sign the message is included. This allows the receiving party to verify the signature without any additional knowledge. If this is set to icsNone the recipient must obtain and specify the public certificate to be used for signature verification. Possible values are:
| Value | Description |
| 0 (icsNone) | No signer certificates are included. |
| 1 (icsSignerCerts - default) | The certificates specified in Certificates are included. |
| 2 (icsSignerCertsAndChain) | The certificates specified in Certificates and the full chain of each certificate are included. |

CertStoreType specifies the type of certificate store. The class supports both public and private keys in a variety of formats. When the cstAuto value is used, the class will automatically determine the type. This property 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 (PKCS12) file containing certificates. |
| 3 (cstPFXBlob) | The certificate store is a string (binary or base64-encoded) representing a certificate store in PFX (PKCS12) 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. |
| 5 (cstJKSBlob) | The certificate store is a string (binary or base64-encoded) representing a certificate store in Java Key Store (JKS) format.
Note: this store type is only available in Java. |
| 6 (cstPEMKeyFile) | The certificate store is the name of a PEM-encoded file that contains a private key and an optional certificate. |
| 7 (cstPEMKeyBlob) | The certificate store is a string (binary or base64-encoded) that contains a private key and an optional certificate. |
| 8 (cstPublicKeyFile) | The certificate store is the name of a file that contains a PEM- or DER-encoded public key certificate. |

| 22 (cstBCFKSBlob) | The certificate store is a string (binary or base64-encoded) representing a certificate store in BCFKS (Bouncy Castle FIPS Key Store) format.
Note: This store type is only available in Java and .NET. |
| 23 (cstPKCS11) | The certificate is present on a physical security key accessible via a PKCS11 interface.
To use a security key, the necessary data must first be collected using the CertMgr class. The ListStoreCertificates method may be called after setting CertStoreType to cstPKCS11, CertStorePassword to the PIN, and CertStore to the full path of the PKCS11 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 and set to the PIN. Code Example. SSH Authentication with Security Key:
|
| 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. |
CertStore specifies the path to the certificate file. If the CertStoreType is a blob, this specifies the certificate content. See Certificates for details.
CertStorePassword is the password for the certificate (if any).
CertSubject specified the subject of the certificate to load. The certificate subject is a comma-separated list of distinguished name fields and values. For instance, "CN=www.server.com, OU=test, C=US, or E=support@nsoftware.com". Common fields and their meanings are as follows:
| Field | Meaning |
| CN | Common Name. This is commonly a host name 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, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message. (Note: This method's result code can also be obtained by calling the GetLastErrorCode() method after it returns.)
Config Method (CMS Class)
This method sets or retrieves a configuration setting.
Syntax
ANSI (Cross Platform) char* Config(const char* lpszConfigurationString); Unicode (Windows) LPWSTR Config(LPCWSTR lpszConfigurationString);
char* ipworksencrypt_cms_config(void* lpObj, const char* lpszConfigurationString);
QString Config(const QString& qsConfigurationString);
Remarks
Config is a generic method available in every class. It is used to set and retrieve configuration 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, you must call Config("PROPERTY"). The value will be returned as a string.
Error Handling (C++)
This method returns a String value; after it returns, call the GetLastErrorCode() method to obtain its result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message.
Decrypt Method (CMS Class)
Decrypts the current message.
Syntax
ANSI (Cross Platform) int Decrypt(); Unicode (Windows) INT Decrypt();
int ipworksencrypt_cms_decrypt(void* lpObj);
int Decrypt();
Remarks
Decrypt decrypts the input data with the specified certificate. Certificates are specified by calling AddCertificate or setting the Certificates 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.
The following properties are applicable when calling this method:
- Certificates (Required)
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:
- SetOutputStream
- OutputFile
- OutputMessage: The output data is written to this property if no other destination is specified.
When using streams, you may need to additionally set CloseInputStreamAfterProcessing or CloseOutputStreamAfterProcessing.

DecryptAndVerifySignature Method (CMS Class)
Decrypts and verifies the signature of the current message.
Syntax
ANSI (Cross Platform) int DecryptAndVerifySignature(); Unicode (Windows) INT DecryptAndVerifySignature();
int ipworksencrypt_cms_decryptandverifysignature(void* lpObj);
int 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:
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:
- SetOutputStream
- OutputFile
- OutputMessage: The output data is written to this property if no other destination is specified.
When using streams, you may need to additionally set CloseInputStreamAfterProcessing or CloseOutputStreamAfterProcessing.
Error Handling (C++)
This method returns a result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message. (Note: This method's result code can also be obtained by calling the GetLastErrorCode() method after it returns.)

void SignerCertInfo(CMSSignerCertInfoEventParams *e);
// Or, subclass CMS and override this emitter function.
virtual int FireSignerCertInfo(CMSSignerCertInfoEventParams *e) {...}
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.

IPWorksEncryptList Type
Syntax
IPWorksEncryptList<T> (declared in ipworksencrypt.h)
Remarks
IPWorksEncryptList is a generic class that is used to hold a collection of objects of type T, where T is one of the custom types supported by the CMS class.
Methods | |
| GetCount |
This method returns the current size of the collection.
int GetCount() {}
|
| SetCount |
This method sets the size of the collection. This method returns 0 if setting the size was successful; or -1 if the collection is ReadOnly. When adding additional objects to a collection call this method to specify the new size. Increasing the size of the collection preserves existing objects in the collection.
int SetCount() {}
|
| Get |
This method gets the item at the specified position. The index parameter specifies the index of the item in the collection. This method returns NULL if an invalid index is specified.
T* Get(int index) {}
|
| Set |
This method sets the item at the specified position. The index parameter specifies the index of the item in the collection that is being set. This method returns -1 if an invalid index is specified. Note: Objects created using the new operator must be freed using the delete operator; they will not be automatically freed by the class.
T* Set(int index, T* value) {}
|
IPWorksEncryptStream Type
Syntax
IPWorksEncryptStream (declared in ipworksencrypt.h)
Remarks
The CMS class includes one or more API members that take a stream object as a parameter. To use such API members, create a concrete class that implements the IPWorksEncryptStream interface and pass the CMS class an instance of that concrete class.
When implementing the IPWorksEncryptStream interface's properties and methods, they must behave as described below. If the concrete class's implementation does not behave as expected, undefined behavior may occur.
Properties | |
| CanRead |
Whether the stream supports reading.
bool CanRead() { return true; }
|
| CanSeek |
Whether the stream supports seeking.
bool CanSeek() { return true; }
|
| CanWrite |
Whether the stream supports writing.
bool CanWrite() { return true; }
|
| Length |
Gets the length of the stream, in bytes.
int64 GetLength() = 0; |
Methods | |
| Close |
Closes the stream, releasing all resources currently allocated for it.
void Close() {}
This method is called automatically when an IPWorksEncryptStream object is deleted. |
| Flush |
Forces all data held by the stream's buffers to be written out to storage.
int Flush() { return 0; }
Must return 0 if flushing is successful; or -1 if an error occurs or the stream is closed. If the stream does not support writing, this method must do nothing and return 0. |
| Read |
Reads a sequence of bytes from the stream and advances the current position within the stream by the number of bytes read.
int Read(void* buffer, int count) = 0; Buffer specifies the buffer to populate with data from the stream. Count specifies the number of bytes that should be read from the stream. Must return the total number of bytes read into Buffer; this may be less than Count if that many bytes are not currently available, or 0 if the end of the stream has been reached. Must return -1 if an error occurs, if reading is not supported, or if the stream is closed. |
| Seek |
Sets the current position within the stream based on a particular point of origin.
int64 Seek(int64 offset, int seekOrigin) = 0; Offset specifies the offset in the stream to seek to, relative to SeekOrigin. Valid values for SeekOrigin are:
Must return the new position within the stream; or -1 if an error occurs, if seeking is not supported, or if the stream is closed (however, see note below). If -1 is returned, the current position within the stream must remain unchanged. Note: If the stream is not closed, it must always be possible to call this method with an Offset of 0 and a SeekOrigin of 1 to obtain the current position within the stream, even if seeking is not otherwise supported. |
| Write |
Writes a sequence of bytes to the stream and advances the current position within the stream by the number of bytes written.
int Write(const void* buffer, int count) = 0; Buffer specifies the buffer with data to write to the stream. Count specifies the number of bytes that should be written to the stream. Must return the total number of bytes written to the stream; this may be less than Count if that many bytes could not be written. Must return -1 if an error occurs, if writing is not supported, or if the stream is closed. |
Config Settings (CMS Class)
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
