The DCAuthWebServer Component offers higher-level access to 'private key side' functionality of SecureBlackbox DC protocol.

Syntax

TsbxDCAuthWebServer

Remarks

DCAuthWebServer provides a built-in REST responder for DC requests. Use it in conjunction with the in-browser Javascript that comes with DC package, or with standalone DC requestors. DCAuthWebServer listens to DC requests on a specific Port or a port chosen between PortRangeFrom and PortRangeTo. Use DCAuth, which provides a lower-level access to the signing engine, to implement DC in applications, apps, or services.

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

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

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

Example: signer.ExternalCrypto.KeyID = "MainSigningKey"; signer.ExternalCrypto.KeySecret = "abcdef0123456789";

You can use the following URI modifiers to provide more accurate specifiers for the needed certificate:

• cn: the common name of the certificate subject.
• keyid: the unique identifier included in subject key identifier extension of the certificate.
• keyusage: a comma-separated list of enabled (+) or disabled (-) key usages. The following usages are supported: signature, nonrepudiation, keyencipherment, dataencipherment, keyagreement, keycertsign, crlsign, encipheronly, decipheronly, serverauth, clientauth, codesigning, emailprotection, timestamping, ocspsigning, smartcardlogon, keypurposeclientauth, keypurposekdc.

Data Type

String

TimestampServer Property (DCAuthWebServer Component)

The address of the timestamping server.

Syntax

__property String TimestampServer = { read=FTimestampServer, write=FSetTimestampServer };

Default Value

""

Remarks

Use this property to provide the address of the Time Stamping Authority (TSA) server to be used for timestamping the signature.

SecureBlackbox supports RFC3161-compliant timestamping servers, available via HTTP or HTTPS.

If your timestamping service enforces credential-based user authentication (basic or digest), you can provide the credentials in the same URL:

http://user:password@timestamp.server.com/TsaService

For TSAs using certificate-based TLS authentication, provide the client certificate via the TLSClientChain property.

If this property is left empty, no timestamp will be added to the signature.

Starting from summer 2021 update (Vol. 2), the virtual timestamping service is supported, which allows you to intervene in the timestamping routine and provide your own handling for the TSA exchange. This may be handy if the service that you are requesting timestamps from uses a non-standard TSP protocol or requires special authentication option.

To employ the virtual service, assign an URI of the following format to this property:

virtual://localhost?hashonly=true&includecerts=true&reqpolicy=1.2.3.4.5&halg=SHA256

Subscribe to Notification event to get notified about the virtualized timestamping event. The EventID of the timestamping event is TimestampRequest. Inside the event handler, read the base16-encoded request from the EventParam parameter and forward it to the timestamping authority. Upon receiving the response, pass it back to the component, encoded in base16, via the TimestampResponse config property:

component.Config("TimestampResponse=308208ab...");

Note that all the exchange with your custom TSA should take place within the same invocation of the Notification event.

The hashonly parameter of the virtual URI tells the component to only return the timestamp message imprint via the EventParam parameter. If set to false, EventParam will contain the complete RFC3161 timestamping request.

The includecerts parameter specifies that the requestCertificates parameter of the timestamping request should be set to true.

The reqpolicy parameter lets you specify the request policy, and the halg parameter specifies the hash algorithm to use for timestamping.

All the parameters are optional.

Data Type

String

TLSAutoValidateCertificates Property (DCAuthWebServer Component)

Syntax

__property String TLSCiphersuites = { read=FTLSCiphersuites, write=FSetTLSCiphersuites };

Default Value

""

Remarks

A list of ciphersuites separated with commas or semicolons. Each ciphersuite in the list may be prefixed with a minus sign (-) to indicate that the ciphersuite should be disabled rather than enabled. Besides the specific ciphersuite modifiers, this property supports the all (and -all) aliases, allowing all ciphersuites to be blanketly enabled or disabled at once.

Note: the list of ciphersuites provided to this property alters the baseline list of ciphersuites as defined by TLSBaseConfiguration. Remember to start your ciphersuite string with -all; if you need to only enable a specific fixed set of ciphersuites. The list of supported ciphersuites is provided below:

  crcAnyOCSP=6,
  crcAnyCRLOrOCSP=7,

};

Default Value

crcAuto

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.

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.

Config Method (DCAuthWebServer Component)

Sets or retrieves a configuration setting.

Syntax

String __fastcall Config(String ConfigurationString);

Remarks

Config is a generic method available in every component. It is used to set and retrieve configuration settings for the component.

These settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the component, 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.

} TsbxDCAuthWebServerAuthAttemptEventParams;
typedef void __fastcall (__closure *TsbxDCAuthWebServerAuthAttemptEvent)(System::TObject* Sender, TsbxDCAuthWebServerAuthAttemptEventParams *e);
__property TsbxDCAuthWebServerAuthAttemptEvent OnAuthAttempt = { read=FOnAuthAttempt, write=FOnAuthAttempt };

Remarks

The component fires this event whenever a client attempts to authenticate itself. Use the Allow parameter to let the client through.

ConnectionID contains the unique session identifier for that client, HTTPMethod specifies the HTTP method (GET, POST, etc.) used to access the URI resource, AuthMethod specifies the authentication method, and Username and Password contain the professed credentials.

Connect Event (DCAuthWebServer Component)

Reports an accepted connection.

Syntax

typedef struct {
  __int64 ConnectionID;
  String RemoteAddress;
  int RemotePort;
} TsbxDCAuthWebServerConnectEventParams;
typedef void __fastcall (__closure *TsbxDCAuthWebServerConnectEvent)(System::TObject* Sender, TsbxDCAuthWebServerConnectEventParams *e);
__property TsbxDCAuthWebServerConnectEvent OnConnect = { read=FOnConnect, write=FOnConnect };

typedef void __fastcall (__closure *TsbxDCAuthWebServerDisconnectEvent)(System::TObject* Sender, TsbxDCAuthWebServerDisconnectEventParams *e);
__property TsbxDCAuthWebServerDisconnectEvent OnDisconnect = { read=FOnDisconnect, write=FOnDisconnect };

Remarks

The component fires this event when a connected client disconnects.

Error Event (DCAuthWebServer Component)

Syntax

typedef struct {
  __int64 ConnectionID;
  int ErrorCode;
  String Description;
} TsbxDCAuthWebServerErrorEventParams;
typedef void __fastcall (__closure *TsbxDCAuthWebServerErrorEvent)(System::TObject* Sender, TsbxDCAuthWebServerErrorEventParams *e);
__property TsbxDCAuthWebServerErrorEvent OnError = { read=FOnError, write=FOnError };

Remarks

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

ErrorCode contains an error code and Description contains a textual description of the error. For a list of valid error codes and their descriptions, please refer to the HTTPS section.

ExternalSign Event (DCAuthWebServer Component)

Handles remote or external signing initiated by the server protocol.

Syntax

typedef struct {
  __int64 ConnectionID;
  String OperationId;
  String HashAlgorithm;
  String Pars;
  String Data;
  String SignedData;
} TsbxDCAuthWebServerExternalSignEventParams;
typedef void __fastcall (__closure *TsbxDCAuthWebServerExternalSignEvent)(System::TObject* Sender, TsbxDCAuthWebServerExternalSignEventParams *e);
__property TsbxDCAuthWebServerExternalSignEvent OnExternalSign = { read=FOnExternalSign, write=FOnExternalSign };

Remarks

Assign a handler to this event if you need to delegate a low-level signing operation to an external, remote, or custom signing engine. Depending on the settings, the handler will receive a hashed or unhashed value to be signed.

The event handler must pass the value of Data to the signer, obtain the signature, and pass it back to the component via the SignedData parameter.

OperationId provides a comment about the operation and its origin. It depends on the exact component being used, and may be empty. HashAlgorithm specifies the hash algorithm being used for the operation, and Pars contains algorithm-dependent parameters.

The component uses base16 (hex) encoding for the Data, SignedData, and Pars parameters. If your signing engine uses a different input and output encoding, you may need to decode and/or encode the data before and/or after the signing.

A sample MD5 hash encoded in base16: a0dee2a0382afbb09120ffa7ccd8a152 - lower case base16 A0DEE2A0382AFBB09120FFA7CCD8A152 - upper case base16

A sample event handler that uses the .NET RSACryptoServiceProvider class may look like the following: signer.OnExternalSign += (s, e) => { var cert = new X509Certificate2("cert.pfx", "", X509KeyStorageFlags.Exportable); var key = (RSACryptoServiceProvider)cert.PrivateKey; var dataToSign = e.Data.FromBase16String(); var signedData = key.SignHash(dataToSign, "2.16.840.1.101.3.4.2.1"); e.SignedData = signedData.ToBase16String(); };

KeySecretNeeded Event (DCAuthWebServer Component)

Requests the key secret from the application.

Syntax

typedef struct {
  __int64 ConnectionId;
  String KeyId;
  String KeySecret;
} TsbxDCAuthWebServerKeySecretNeededEventParams;
typedef void __fastcall (__closure *TsbxDCAuthWebServerKeySecretNeededEvent)(System::TObject* Sender, TsbxDCAuthWebServerKeySecretNeededEventParams *e);
__property TsbxDCAuthWebServerKeySecretNeededEvent OnKeySecretNeeded = { read=FOnKeySecretNeeded, write=FOnKeySecretNeeded };

Remarks

Subscribe to this event to pass the key secret (a pre-shared request authentication code) to the signing component when it is needed. The authentication combination consists of the KeyId, a non-secret unique key identifier, and the KeySecret, shared by the parties, which should be kept private. This event is an alternative for KeySecret property. Use it when you expect to process requests from requestors with different KeyIds and secrets. If you only expect to receive requests from a single requestor with a known KeyId, providing the key secret via KeyId and KeySecret properties would be an easier route.

Log Event (DCAuthWebServer Component)

Reports a single log line.

Syntax

typedef struct {
  __int64 ConnectionId;
  int LogType;
  String Details;
} TsbxDCAuthWebServerLogEventParams;
typedef void __fastcall (__closure *TsbxDCAuthWebServerLogEvent)(System::TObject* Sender, TsbxDCAuthWebServerLogEventParams *e);
__property TsbxDCAuthWebServerLogEvent OnLog = { read=FOnLog, write=FOnLog };

Remarks

This event is fired repeatedly during the component's work to inform the application about the flow of the signing process. The application may use this event to create an operation log.

Notification Event (DCAuthWebServer Component)

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

Syntax

typedef struct {
  String EventID;
  String EventParam;
} TsbxDCAuthWebServerNotificationEventParams;
typedef void __fastcall (__closure *TsbxDCAuthWebServerNotificationEvent)(System::TObject* Sender, TsbxDCAuthWebServerNotificationEventParams *e);
__property TsbxDCAuthWebServerNotificationEvent OnNotification = { read=FOnNotification, write=FOnNotification };

Remarks

The component fires this event to let the application know about some event, occurrence, or milestone in the component. 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 component, the exact action it is performing, or the document being processed, one or both may be omitted.

ParameterReceived Event (DCAuthWebServer Component)

Passes a standard request parameter to the user code.

Syntax

typedef struct {
  __int64 ConnectionId;
  String Name;
  String Value;
} TsbxDCAuthWebServerParameterReceivedEventParams;
typedef void __fastcall (__closure *TsbxDCAuthWebServerParameterReceivedEvent)(System::TObject* Sender, TsbxDCAuthWebServerParameterReceivedEventParams *e);
__property TsbxDCAuthWebServerParameterReceivedEvent OnParameterReceived = { read=FOnParameterReceived, write=FOnParameterReceived };

__property TsbxDCAuthWebServerPasswordNeededEvent OnPasswordNeeded = { read=FOnPasswordNeeded, write=FOnPasswordNeeded };

Remarks

Subscribe to this event to pass a password to the server component. The NeededFor parameter specifies the entity a password for which is being requested (which is typically a certificate). The Id parameter provides the entity's identifier, such as a path to the certificate being loaded. When handling this event, assign the Password to the valid password if you have it; otherwise, set Cancel to true to abort the operation.

ReadOption Event (DCAuthWebServer Component)

Fires when the client sends in a read option request.

Syntax

typedef struct {
  __int64 ConnectionId;
  String Name;
  String Value;
  bool Success;
} TsbxDCAuthWebServerReadOptionEventParams;
typedef void __fastcall (__closure *TsbxDCAuthWebServerReadOptionEvent)(System::TObject* Sender, TsbxDCAuthWebServerReadOptionEventParams *e);
__property TsbxDCAuthWebServerReadOptionEvent OnReadOption = { read=FOnReadOption, write=FOnReadOption };

Remarks

Subscribe to this event to respond to the clients' read option requests. The handler should retrieve the value of the requested option from a local configuration setting and assign it to the Value parameter.

SelectCert Event (DCAuthWebServer Component)

Requests certificate selection criteria from the application.

Syntax

typedef struct {
  __int64 ConnectionId;
  String CommonName;
  String KeyID;
  String KeyUsage;
  String Fingerprint;
  String StoreType;
} TsbxDCAuthWebServerSelectCertEventParams;
typedef void __fastcall (__closure *TsbxDCAuthWebServerSelectCertEvent)(System::TObject* Sender, TsbxDCAuthWebServerSelectCertEventParams *e);
__property TsbxDCAuthWebServerSelectCertEvent OnSelectCert = { read=FOnSelectCert, write=FOnSelectCert };

Remarks

Subscribe to this event to provide signing certificate details on the fly, right before the hash is signed.

SignRequest Event (DCAuthWebServer Component)

This event signifies the processing of an atomic signing request.

Syntax

typedef struct {
  __int64 ConnectionId;
  int Method;
  String HashAlgorithm;
  DynamicArray Hash;
  String KeyID;
  String Pars;
  String MethodPars;
  bool Allow;
} TsbxDCAuthWebServerSignRequestEventParams;
typedef void __fastcall (__closure *TsbxDCAuthWebServerSignRequestEvent)(System::TObject* Sender, TsbxDCAuthWebServerSignRequestEventParams *e);
__property TsbxDCAuthWebServerSignRequestEvent OnSignRequest = { read=FOnSignRequest, write=FOnSignRequest };

Remarks

Subscribe to this event to be notified of every signature request processed by the DC server. Note that any one request coming from the requestor may contain multiple individual signature requests (so-called 'batching'). This event is a good mechanism to track signature requests for accountability purposes, and provide basic access control over the signing operations. The Method parameter specifies the async signing method requested by the client:

The Hash parameter contains the hash, made using HashAlgorithm, that needs to be signed. KeyID contains the key identifier of the requestor.

The Pars string contains a semicolon-separated string of the principal signature parameters. This has the same format and content that is passed to ExternalSign, if it is used. The MethodPars contains a similar parameter string, but for the specific async signing method used. For the PKCS1 method there are no defined method parameters, while the PKCS7 method supports a selection of settings that tune up the CMS blob.

Set Allow to false to reject the request. Use the SignRequestCompleted event to track completion of the initiated operation.

SignRequestCompleted Event (DCAuthWebServer Component)

This event signifies completion of the processing of an atomic signing request.

Syntax

typedef struct {
  __int64 ConnectionId;
  int Method;
  String HashAlgorithm;
  DynamicArray Hash;
  String KeyID;
  String Pars;
  String MethodPars;
  DynamicArray Signature;
} TsbxDCAuthWebServerSignRequestCompletedEventParams;
typedef void __fastcall (__closure *TsbxDCAuthWebServerSignRequestCompletedEvent)(System::TObject* Sender, TsbxDCAuthWebServerSignRequestCompletedEventParams *e);
__property TsbxDCAuthWebServerSignRequestCompletedEvent OnSignRequestCompleted = { read=FOnSignRequestCompleted, write=FOnSignRequestCompleted };

Remarks

Use this event to track completion of signing request processing. The Hash parameter contains the hash that is signed, as supplied by the requestor, and the Signature parameter contains the resulting cryptographic signature. The Username parameter matches the parameter in SignRequest event.

TimestampRequest Event (DCAuthWebServer Component)

Fires when the component is ready to request a timestamp from an external TSA.

Syntax

typedef struct {
  String TSA;
  String TimestampRequest;
  String TimestampResponse;
  bool SuppressDefault;
} TsbxDCAuthWebServerTimestampRequestEventParams;
typedef void __fastcall (__closure *TsbxDCAuthWebServerTimestampRequestEvent)(System::TObject* Sender, TsbxDCAuthWebServerTimestampRequestEventParams *e);
__property TsbxDCAuthWebServerTimestampRequestEvent OnTimestampRequest = { read=FOnTimestampRequest, write=FOnTimestampRequest };

Remarks

Subscribe to this event to intercept timestamp requests. You can use it to override timestamping requests and perform them in your code.

The TSA parameter indicates the timestamping service being used. It matches the value passed to the TimestampServer property. Set the SuppressDefault parameter to false if you would like to stop the built-in TSA request from going ahead. The built-in TSA request is also not performed if the returned TimestampResponse parameter is not empty.

TLSCertValidate Event (DCAuthWebServer Component)

Fires when a client certificate needs to be validated.

Syntax

typedef struct {
  __int64 ConnectionID;
  bool Accept;
} TsbxDCAuthWebServerTLSCertValidateEventParams;
typedef void __fastcall (__closure *TsbxDCAuthWebServerTLSCertValidateEvent)(System::TObject* Sender, TsbxDCAuthWebServerTLSCertValidateEventParams *e);
__property TsbxDCAuthWebServerTLSCertValidateEvent OnTLSCertValidate = { read=FOnTLSCertValidate, write=FOnTLSCertValidate };

Remarks

The component fires this event to notify the application of an authenticating client. Use the event handler to validate the certificate and pass your decision back to the server component via the Accept parameter.

TLSEstablished Event (DCAuthWebServer Component)

Reports the setup of a TLS session.

Syntax

typedef struct {
  __int64 ConnectionID;
} TsbxDCAuthWebServerTLSEstablishedEventParams;
typedef void __fastcall (__closure *TsbxDCAuthWebServerTLSEstablishedEvent)(System::TObject* Sender, TsbxDCAuthWebServerTLSEstablishedEventParams *e);
__property TsbxDCAuthWebServerTLSEstablishedEvent OnTLSEstablished = { read=FOnTLSEstablished, write=FOnTLSEstablished };

Remarks

Subscribe to this event to be notified about the setup of a TLS connection by a connected client.

TLSHandshake Event (DCAuthWebServer Component)

Fires when a newly established client connection initiates a TLS handshake.

Syntax

typedef struct {
  __int64 ConnectionID;
  String ServerName;
  bool Abort;
} TsbxDCAuthWebServerTLSHandshakeEventParams;
typedef void __fastcall (__closure *TsbxDCAuthWebServerTLSHandshakeEvent)(System::TObject* Sender, TsbxDCAuthWebServerTLSHandshakeEventParams *e);
__property TsbxDCAuthWebServerTLSHandshakeEvent OnTLSHandshake = { read=FOnTLSHandshake, write=FOnTLSHandshake };

Remarks

Use this event to get notified about the initiation of the TLS handshake by the remote client. The ServerName parameter specifies the requested host from the client hello message.

TLSPSK Event (DCAuthWebServer Component)

Requests a pre-shared key for TLS-PSK.

Syntax

typedef struct {
  __int64 ConnectionID;
  String Identity;
  String PSK;
  String Ciphersuite;
} TsbxDCAuthWebServerTLSPSKEventParams;
typedef void __fastcall (__closure *TsbxDCAuthWebServerTLSPSKEvent)(System::TObject* Sender, TsbxDCAuthWebServerTLSPSKEventParams *e);
__property TsbxDCAuthWebServerTLSPSKEvent OnTLSPSK = { read=FOnTLSPSK, write=FOnTLSPSK };

Remarks

The component fires this event to report that a client has requested a TLS-PSK negotiation. ConnectionId indicates the unique connection ID that requested the PSK handshake.

Use Identity to look up for the corresponding pre-shared key in the server's database, then assign the key to the PSK parameter. If TLS 1.3 PSK is used, you will also need to assign the Ciphersuite parameter with the cipher suite associated with that identity and their key.

TLSShutdown Event (DCAuthWebServer Component)

Reports closure of a TLS session.

Syntax

typedef struct {
  __int64 ConnectionID;
} TsbxDCAuthWebServerTLSShutdownEventParams;
typedef void __fastcall (__closure *TsbxDCAuthWebServerTLSShutdownEvent)(System::TObject* Sender, TsbxDCAuthWebServerTLSShutdownEventParams *e);
__property TsbxDCAuthWebServerTLSShutdownEvent OnTLSShutdown = { read=FOnTLSShutdown, write=FOnTLSShutdown };

Remarks

The component fires this event when a connected client closes their TLS session gracefully. This event is typically followed by a Disconnect, which marks the closure of the underlying TCP session.

WriteOption Event (DCAuthWebServer Component)

Fires when the client sends in a write option request.

Syntax

typedef struct {
  __int64 ConnectionId;
  String Name;
  String Value;
} TsbxDCAuthWebServerWriteOptionEventParams;
typedef void __fastcall (__closure *TsbxDCAuthWebServerWriteOptionEvent)(System::TObject* Sender, TsbxDCAuthWebServerWriteOptionEventParams *e);
__property TsbxDCAuthWebServerWriteOptionEvent OnWriteOption = { read=FOnWriteOption, write=FOnWriteOption };

Remarks

Subscribe to this event to respond to the clients' write option requests. The handler should save the Value of the Name option to a local configuration database.

Config Settings (DCAuthWebServer Component)

The component 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 component, access to these internal properties is provided through the Config method.
