SSHClient Module

Properties Methods Events Config Settings Errors

The SSHClient module provides client-side SSH protocol functionality.

Syntax

SecureBlackbox.Sshclient

Remarks

Use SSHClient to establish terminal-like connections to remote systems and run commands remotely. The component supports most of third-party implementations out there, and is capable of working in "shell" and "command" modes.

Start with assigning your sign-in credentials to Username and Password properties. Where public key authentication is to be used, assign your private authentication key to Key property (remember to set Username in this case too). Subscribe to events to be notified of the session progress. AuthFailed, AuthSucceeded, and Connect are among those particularly useful.

Special attention should be paid to setting up the server key trust. Class only allows connections to servers whose public keys are recognized as trusted, much like any other SSH clients do. Assign a path to the file containing the list of trusted keys to TrustedKeysFile property. If you don't have such file, or if you would like to make trust decisions on the fly, subscribe to KnownKeyReceived and UnknownKeyReceived events. These are fired whenever a trusted or untrusted key is received from the server. For unknown/untrusted keys, you need to set the Action parameter in your UnknownKeyReceived event handler to catAcceptOnce (1) or catAcceptPermanently (2) for the connection to proceed.

Once you are all set up, you can go ahead by calling the Connect method. This launches the SSH handshake and, if everything has been set up right, establishes a connection to the server. You can now use Send and Receive methods to exchange information with the server. You can exchange data in synchronous or asynchronous way; see the description in AsyncMode topic to learn more about each mode.

When you are done with the session, call Disconnect to shut the connection down.

Hint: If you are only interested in a quick-and-dirty execution of a simple, non-interactive command, SSHClient offers a handy shortcut. ConnectAndExec method is a self-contained mechanism which sets up a connection, performs the data exchange internally, and returns the command output. Please keep in mind that you still need to set up the server trust settings as described above for this method to work.

AsyncMode Property (SSHClient Module)

Controls the SSH clients mode of work.

public var asyncMode: Bool {
  get {...}
  set {...}
}


@property (nonatomic,readwrite,assign,getter=asyncMode,setter=setAsyncMode:) BOOL asyncMode;

- (BOOL)asyncMode;
- (void)setAsyncMode :(BOOL)newAsyncMode;

Default Value

False

Remarks

This property defines the way in which the class communicates with the application/user code. AsyncMode set to false makes the component use synchronous single-thread approach. Synchronous mode is generally simpler to integrate and use, but please keep in mind that the calls like Connect, Receive or SendBytes may block until their execution completes. In asyncronous mode all operations return immediately, but more care should be taken about handling them in your code properly.

Here are a few highlights of each mode.

Synchronous mode:

All operations are performed within the caller thread context
Operations like Connect or SendBytes may block
Use Poll to check for the availability of data before reading it out with Receive or ReceiveBytes
Return of a call guarantees completion of the operation
Connection errors are reported straight from the methods via exceptions

Asynchronous mode:

All operations are performed in a separate thread (and so are the event calls!)
Methods like Send return immediately
Use DataSent and DataReceived events to be notified about actual data transmissions
Return of call only marks the beginning of the operation and does not guarantee its successful completion
Connection errors are reported via Error event, often followed by Disconnect.

Please note that this is a very important and sensitive property, which has a wide-scale effect on the way the SSH client works and co-operates with the application. Depending on the value assigned to this setting you may need to work with the component very differently.

When setting this property to true, please make sure that your code is prepared to handle events coming from the context of a different thread.

Config Method (SSHClient Module)

Sets or retrieves a configuration setting.

Syntax

Swift
Objective-C

public func config(configurationString: String) throws -> String

- (NSString*)config:(NSString*)configurationString;

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.

Connect Method (SSHClient Module)

Establishes connection to an SSH server.

Syntax

Swift
Objective-C

public func connect(address: String, port: Int32) throws -> Void

- (void)connect:(NSString*)address :(int)port;

Remarks

Use this method to connect to the SSH server by providing its Address and Port.

Before connecting to the server you might want to set up your credentials using Username and Password properties. You might also need to configure the server key validation routine. You can do this by subscribing to KnownKeyReceived and UnknownKeyReceived events and implementing the event handlers as required.

Adjust AsyncMode before connecting to switch the component to either synchronous or asynchronous mode. In synchronous mode, all the calls to the component, such as Connect or SendBytes, are executed within the context of the caller thread, and block until the action completes. In asynchronous mode, the component runs the SSH session in a background thread, which makes all such calls return immediately. Find out more about the modes in the AsyncMode topic.

ConnectAndExec Method (SSHClient Module)

Connects to an SSH server and executes a command in one go.

Syntax

Swift
Objective-C

public func connectAndExec(address: String, port: Int32, command: String, wantStdout: Bool, wantStdErr: Bool) throws -> Data

- (NSData*)connectAndExec:(NSString*)address :(int)port :(NSString*)command :(BOOL)wantStdout :(BOOL)wantStdErr;

Remarks

Use this method to connect to an SSH server at Address and Port and execute a command. The method returns the output of the executed command.

This method is a handy shortcut for running non-interactive commands. It encapsulates calls to Connect, Receive, Disconnect internally to save you time and space.

Please note that ConnectAndExec always runs synchronously, thus ignoring the AsyncMode setting.

Disconnect Method (SSHClient Module)

Closes connection to the SSH server.

Syntax

Swift
Objective-C

public func disconnect() throws -> Void

- (void)disconnect;

Remarks

Call this method to terminate the active SSH connection.

Please note that in some cases the component may still have some inbound data cached internally even after the connection is closed. You can read that data out using Receive and/or ReceiveBytes methods.

DoAction Method (SSHClient Module)

Performs an additional action.

Syntax

Swift
Objective-C

public func doAction(actionID: String, actionParams: String) throws -> String

- (NSString*)doAction:(NSString*)actionID :(NSString*)actionParams;

Remarks

DoAction 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 of the action is provided in ActionID parameter. ActionParams contains a list of parameters for the action in the form of PARAM1=VALUE1;PARAM2=VALUE2;....

Ping Method (SSHClient Module)

Sends a keep-alive request to the SSH server.

Syntax

Swift
Objective-C

public func ping() throws -> Void

- (void)ping;

Remarks

Use this method to send a keep-alive message to the SSH server. Keep-alive messages are empty data packets which carry no useful information but are a handy way of checking if the connection is still alive.

Poll Method (SSHClient Module)

Checks whether there is any inbound data readily available.

Syntax

Swift
Objective-C

public func poll(milliseconds: Int32) throws -> Bool

- (BOOL)poll:(int)milliseconds;

Remarks

Use this method to check whether there is any incoming data available in the connection. If this method returns true, you can read the data with Receive or ReceiveBytes calls.

Use the Milliseconds parameter to tell the component how long it can wait for the data to arrive.

Receive Method (SSHClient Module)

Reads a portion of received data into a string.

Syntax

Swift
Objective-C

public func receive() throws -> String

- (NSString*)receive;

Remarks

Use this method to read out a piece of data received from the server into a string.

Note that in synchronous mode this method may block in the absence of any inbound data until the next piece of data is received from the server. Use Poll to check if there is any data in the connection that is immediately available for reading.

In asynchronous mode a good time to call this method is upon receiving a read notification in DataReceived event handler. When working in asynchronous mode, this call returns immediately.

This method only returns data that arrives via the stdout channel. Use ReceiveFrom to read stderr data.

ReceiveBytes Method (SSHClient Module)

Reads a portion of received data into a byte array.

Syntax

Swift
Objective-C

public func receiveBytes(maxLen: Int32) throws -> Data

- (NSData*)receiveBytes:(int)maxLen;

Remarks

Use this method to read out a piece of data received from the server into a byte array. Control the maximum length of the data chunk with the MaxLen parameter.

In asynchronous mode a good time to call this method is upon receiving a read notification in DataReceived event handler. When working in asynchronous mode, this call returns immediately.

This method only returns data that arrives via the stdout channel. Use ReceiveBytesFrom to read stderr data.

ReceiveBytesFrom Method (SSHClient Module)

Reads a portion of data received via a specific channel into a byte array.

Syntax

Swift
Objective-C

public func receiveBytesFrom(channel: Int32, maxLen: Int32) throws -> Data

- (NSData*)receiveBytesFrom:(int)channel :(int)maxLen;

Remarks

Use this method to read out a piece of data received from the server into a byte array. Specify the channel that you are interested in reading from (0 for stdout, 1 for stderr) via the Channel parameter, and control the maximum length of the data chunk with the MaxLen parameter.

In asynchronous mode a good time to call this method is upon receiving a read notification in DataReceived event handler. When working in asynchronous mode, this call returns immediately.

Please also note that stdout and stderr channels are fully independent, which implies that data arriving via each channel should be read out separately.

ReceiveFrom Method (SSHClient Module)

Reads a portion of data received via a specific channel into a string.

Syntax

Swift
Objective-C

public func receiveFrom(channel: Int32) throws -> String

- (NSString*)receiveFrom:(int)channel;

Remarks

Use this method to read out a piece of data received from the server into a string. Use the Channel parameter to specify the channel that you would like to read from (0 for stdout, 1 for stderr).

In asynchronous mode a good time to call this method is upon receiving a read notification in DataReceived event handler. When working in asynchronous mode, this call returns immediately.

Send Method (SSHClient Module)

Sends a string to the server.

Syntax

Swift
Objective-C

public func send(dataStr: String, addEOL: Bool) throws -> Void

- (void)send:(NSString*)dataStr :(BOOL)addEOL;

Remarks

Use this method to send DataStr to the remote command's stdin channel. Set the AddEOL parameter to true to append the end-of-line character to the string automatically.

Note that in synchronous mode this method may block until the whole string is commited to the network connection. In asynchronous mode this method returns immediately; the application is eventually notified that the data has been sent via the DataSent event.

SendBytes Method (SSHClient Module)

Sends an array of bytes to the server.

Syntax

Swift
Objective-C

public func sendBytes(data: Data) throws -> Void

- (void)sendBytes:(NSData*)data;

Remarks

Use this method to send Data to the remote command's stdin channel.

Note that in synchronous mode this method may block until the whole byte array is commited to the network connection. In asynchronous mode this method returns immediately; the application is eventually notified that the data has been sent via the DataSent event.

SendSpecial Method (SSHClient Module)

Sends a special character to the server or remote command.

Syntax

Swift
Objective-C

public func sendSpecial(specialChar: String) throws -> Void

- (void)sendSpecial:(NSString*)specialChar;

Remarks

Use this method to send a special or control character to the SSH server or the command being executed. Specify the character id via the SpecialChar parameter.

Currently the only supported special character is "eof", which is sometimes used as a way to close the stdin channel gracefully.

AuthAttempt Event (SSHClient Module)

Fires when a single authentication attempt is performed.

Syntax

Swift
Objective-C

func onAuthAttempt(authType: Int32)

- (void)onAuthAttempt:(int)authType;

Remarks

This event is fired each time a single authentication attempt is performed. AuthType parameter specifies the type of authentication. Note, this event could be fired more than once if the client tries different authentication methods one after another.

AuthFailed Event (SSHClient Module)

Fires when a single authentication attempt is failed.

Syntax

Swift
Objective-C

func onAuthFailed(authenticationType: Int32)

- (void)onAuthFailed:(int)authenticationType;

Remarks

This event is fired each time a single authentication attempt fails. AuthType parameter specifies the type of authentication.

As SSH may try a number of authentication attempts of different types or with different parameters (such as public keys) during one session, this event may be fired more than once. It is not critical and may not lead to closing of the connection.

AuthSucceeded Event (SSHClient Module)

Reports a successful authentication.

Syntax

Swift
Objective-C

func onAuthSucceeded()

- (void)onAuthSucceeded;

Remarks

This event may be preceded by some AuthFailed events if the client tries different authentication methods one after another.

Banner Event (SSHClient Module)

Reports the receipt of the Hello message from the server.

Syntax

Swift
Objective-C

func onBanner(text: Data, language: Data)

- (void)onBanner:(NSData*)text :(NSData*)language;

Remarks

SFPTClient fires this event when it receives hello message from the server.

CommandCompleted Event (SSHClient Module)

CommandStart Event (SSHClient Module)

Marks the commencement of a command execution.

Syntax

Swift
Objective-C

func onCommandStart(command: String)

- (void)onCommandStart:(NSString*)command;

Remarks

Subscribe to this event to be notified about the start of execution of a remote command. The Command parameter indicates the command being started.

This event is fired for all commands in the Commands list, in order. The completion of the command is reported via the CommandCompleted event.

Connect Event (SSHClient Module)

This event is fired when an SSH session has been established.

Syntax

Swift
Objective-C

func onConnect()

- (void)onConnect;

Remarks

Use this event to track the moment when SSH session has been set up.

DataReceived Event (SSHClient Module)

Reports receipt of another chunk of data from the server.

Syntax

Swift
Objective-C

func onDataReceived(channel: Int32, bytesReceived: Int32, totalBytesPending: Int32)

- (void)onDataReceived:(int)channel :(int)bytesReceived :(int)totalBytesPending;

Remarks

This event fires in asynchronous mode to report the receipt of another chunk of data from the server. Use Receive or ReceiveBytes methods to read out the received data.

The Channel parameter indicates the channel on which the data was received: stdout (0) or stderr (1). BytesReceived specify the size of the newly received chunk, and TotalBytesPending contain the total number of bytes available for reading.

Please note that just like other asynchronous mode events this event may fire from a secondary thread. Please make sure your code is prepared for that by using appropriate synchronization facilities.

This event does not fire in synchronous mode.

DataSent Event (SSHClient Module)

Notifies the application that a piece of data has been sent to the server.

Syntax

Swift
Objective-C

func onDataSent(bytesSent: Int32, bytesPending: Int32)

- (void)onDataSent:(int)bytesSent :(int)bytesPending;

Remarks

Subscribe to this event to be notified about the outbound data flow. This event fires following a call to Send or SendBytes methods to notify the application that the data provided has been sent to the server. This event may fire more than once for each Send or SendBytes call, subject to the volume of data being sent and the settings of the server.

The BytesSent parameter specifies the number of bytes that has just been sent to the server. The BytesPending indicate the number of bytes that remain cached in the internal buffer. Any bytes cached in such way will be sent again on the next available opportunity and reported via a separate DataSent event invocation.

Please note that just like other asynchronous mode events this event may fire from a secondary thread. Please make sure your code is prepared for that by using appropriate synchronization facilities.

This event does not fire in synchronous mode.

Disconnect Event (SSHClient Module)

This event is fired when the SFTP subsystem connection is closed.

Syntax

Swift
Objective-C

ErrorCode contains an error code and Description contains a textual description of the error. For a list of error codes please refer to SFTP.

ExternalSign Event (SSHClient Module)

Handles remote or external signing initiated by the SignExternal method or other source.

Syntax

Swift
Objective-C

func onExternalSign(operationId: String, hashAlgorithm: String, pars: String, data: String, signedData: inout String)

- (void)onExternalSign:(NSString*)operationId :(NSString*)hashAlgorithm :(NSString*)pars :(NSString*)data :(NSString**)signedData;

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 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 contain algorithm-dependent parameters.

The component uses base16 (hex) encoding for 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 a .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(); };

KnownKeyReceived Event (SSHClient Module)

Signals that the server has introduced itself with a known key.

Syntax

Swift
Objective-C

func onKnownKeyReceived(algorithm: String, bits: Int32, fingerprintSHA256: String)

- (void)onKnownKeyReceived:(NSString*)algorithm :(int)bits :(NSString*)fingerprintSHA256;

Remarks

The class fires this event to tell the application that the server has introduced itself with a known key from TrustedKeysFile.

The details of the key are provided: Algorithm and Bits specify the key algorithm and the number of bits. FingerprintSHA256 contains the key's fingerprint.

Use ServerKey to access more key details.

Notification Event (SSHClient Module)

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

Syntax

Swift
Objective-C

func onNotification(eventID: String, eventParam: String)

- (void)onNotification:(NSString*)eventID :(NSString*)eventParam;

Remarks

The class 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 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.

PasswordChangeRequest Event (SSHClient Module)

This event is fired when a password change is requested.

Syntax

Swift
Objective-C

func onPasswordChangeRequest(prompt: String, newPassword: inout String, cancel: inout Bool)

- (void)onPasswordChangeRequest:(NSString*)prompt :(NSString**)newPassword :(int*)cancel;

Remarks

This event is fired by the class when a password change is requested by the server. Prompt contains the password prompt message. Handler should either provide the new password via NewPassword, or deny the request by setting Cancel to true.

PrivateKeyNeeded Event (SSHClient Module)

This event is fired when client's public key was accepted by the server, but the corresponding secret key is not available.

Syntax

Swift
Objective-C

func onPrivateKeyNeeded(skip: inout Bool)

- (void)onPrivateKeyNeeded:(int*)skip;

Remarks

Set Skip to true when it is not possible to load the missing key for some reason.

UnknownKeyReceived Event (SSHClient Module)

Signals that the server has introduced itself with an unknown key.

Syntax

Swift
Objective-C

func onUnknownKeyReceived(algorithm: String, bits: Int32, fingerprintSHA256: String, action: inout Int32)

- (void)onUnknownKeyReceived:(NSString*)algorithm :(int)bits :(NSString*)fingerprintSHA256 :(int*)action;

Remarks

The class fires this event to tell the application that the server has introduced itself with a key not present in TrustedKeysFile.

The details of the key are provided: Algorithm and Bits specify the key algorithm and the number of bits. FingerprintSHA256 contains the key's fingerprint.

In this event handler, you need to make a decision whether to proceed with the connection. Use Action to tell the class what it should do with the key:


catAcceptOnce	`1`	Accept the key for the current session only.
catAcceptPermanently	`2`	Accept the key for the current session and store the key to the trusted keys list.
catReject	`3`	Reject the key and close the connection.

Note that accepting an unknown and unchecked key may be risky.

ExternalCrypto Type

Specifies the parameters of external cryptographic calls.

Remarks

External cryptocalls are used in a Distributed Cryptography (DC) subsystem, which allows the delegation of security operations to the remote agent. For instance, it can be used to compute the signature value on the server, while retaining the client's private key locally.

Fields

asyncDocumentID
String

Specifies an optional document ID for SignAsyncBegin() and SignAsyncEnd() calls.

Use this property when working with multi-signature DCAuth requests and responses to uniquely identify documents signed within a larger batch. On the completion stage, this value helps the signing component 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.

customParams
String

Custom parameters to be passed to the signing service (uninterpreted).

data
String

Additional data to be included in the async state and mirrored back by the requestor

externalHashCalculation
Bool

Specifies whether the message hash is to be calculated at the external endpoint. Please note that this mode is not supported by all components. In particular, components operating with larger objects (PDFSigner, CAdESSigner, XAdESSigner) do not support it.

hashAlgorithm
String

Specifies the request's signature hash algorithm.

keyID
String

The ID of the pre-shared key used for DC request authentication.

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

keySecret
String

The pre-shared key used for DC request authentication. This key must be set and match the key used by the DCAuth counterpart for the scheme to work.

publicKeyAlgorithms String	A list of public key algorithms separated with commas or semicolons. Each algorithm in the list may be prefixed with a minus sign (-) to indicate that the algorithm should be disabled rather than enabled. Besides the specific algorithm names, this property supports the all (and -all) aliases that allow to blanketly enable or disable all public key algorithms at once. Note: the list of algorithms provided to this property alters the baseline list of public key algorithms pre-configured for this component. Remember to start your algorithm string with -all; if you need to only enable a specific fixed set of algorithms. The list of supported public key algorithms is provided below: ssh-dss ssh-rsa x509v3-sign-rsa x509v3-sign-dss spki-sign-rsa, spki-sign-dss pgp-sign-rsa pgp-sign-dss ecdsa-sha2-nistp256 ecdsa-sha2-nistp384 ecdsa-sha2-nistp521 ecdsa-sha2-nistk163 ecdsa-sha2-nistp192 ecdsa-sha2-nistp224 ecdsa-sha2-nistk233 ecdsa-sha2-nistb233 ecdsa-sha2-nistk283 ecdsa-sha2-nistk409 ecdsa-sha2-nistb409 ecdsa-sha2-nistt571, ecdsa-sha2-curve25519 x509v3-ssh-rsa x509v3-ssh-dss x509v3-rsa2048-sha256 x509v3-ecdsa-sha2-nistp256 x509v3-ecdsa-sha2-nistp384 x509v3-ecdsa-sha2-nistp521 x509v3-ecdsa-sha2-nistk163 x509v3-ecdsa-sha2-nistp192 x509v3-ecdsa-sha2-nistp224 x509v3-ecdsa-sha2-nistk233 x509v3-ecdsa-sha2-nistb233 x509v3-ecdsa-sha2-nistk283 x509v3-ecdsa-sha2-nistk409 x509v3-ecdsa-sha2-nistb409 x509v3-ecdsa-sha2-nistt571 x509v3-ecdsa-sha2-curve25519 ssh-ed25519 ssh-ed448 rsa-sha2-256 rsa-sha2-512

Config Settings (SSHClient 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.

SSHClient Config Settings

BlockSize: The data block size.

This property specifies the data block size to use.

ErrorOrigin: Specifies whether the error is local or remote.

Use this property to check where the error took place.

ErrorSeverity: Specifies whether the error is fatal.

Use this property to check whether the error is fatal or not.

LocalCharset: Charset used on the client machine.

This property specifies the charset used on the local client computer.

RemoteCharset: Charset used on the server.

This property specifies the charset used on the server.

SendCommandEOF: Defines whether EOF control character should be sent after the command data.

Enable this property to enforce sending of a trailing EOF character after the command data.

ThrottleControl: Enables or disables throttle control for the connection.

Use this property to enable or disable throttle control.

Base Config Settings

CheckKeyIntegrityBeforeUse: Enables or disable private key integrity check before use.

This global property enables or disables private key material check before each signing operation. This slows down performance a bit, but prevents a selection of attacks on RSA keys where keys with unknown origins are used.

You can switch this property off to improve performance if your project only uses known, good private keys.

CookieCaching: Specifies whether a cookie cache should be used for HTTP(S) transports.

Set this property to enable or disable cookies caching for the class.

Supported values are:


off		No caching (default)
local		Local caching (supported for HTTPClient, RESTClient and SOAPClient only)
global		Global caching

Cookies: Gets or sets local cookies for the class (supported for HTTPClient, RESTClient and SOAPClient only).

Use this property to get cookies from the internal cookie storage of the class and/or restore them back between application sessions.

DefDeriveKeyIterations: Specifies the default key derivation algorithm iteration count.

This global property sets the default number of iterations for all supported key derivation algorithms. Note that you can provide the required number of iterations by using properties of the relevant key generation component; this global setting is used in scenarios where specific iteration count is not or cannot be provided.

EnableClientSideSSLFFDHE: Enables or disables finite field DHE key exchange support in TLS clients.

This global property enables or disables support for finite field DHE key exchange methods in TLS clients. FF DHE is a slower algorithm if compared to EC DHE; enabling it may result in slower connections.

This setting only applies to sessions negotiated with TLS version 1.3.

GlobalCookies: Gets or sets global cookies for all the HTTP transports.

Use this property to get cookies from the GLOBAL cookie storage or restore them back between application sessions. These cookies will be used by all the classes that have its CookieCaching property set to "global".

HttpUserAgent: Specifies the user agent name to be used by all HTTP clients.

This global setting defines the User-Agent field of the HTTP request provides information about the software that initiates the request. This value will be used by all the HTTP clients including the ones used internally in other classes.

LogDestination: Specifies the debug log destination.

Contains a comma-separated list of values that specifies where debug log should be dumped.

Supported values are:


file		File
console		Console
systemlog		System Log (supported for Android only)

Use this property to set the log flush mode. The following values are defined:


none		No flush (caching only)
immediate		Immediate flush (real-time logging)
maxcount		Flush cached entries upon reaching LogMaxEventCount entries in the cache.

LogLevel: Specifies the debug log level.

Use this property to provide the desired debug log level.

Supported values are:


none		None (by default)
fatal		Severe errors that cause premature termination.
error		Other runtime errors or unexpected conditions.
warning		Use of deprecated APIs, poor use of API, 'almost' errors, other runtime situations that are undesirable or unexpected, but not necessarily "wrong".
info		Interesting runtime events (startup/shutdown).
debug		Detailed information on flow of through the system.
trace		More detailed information.

LogMaxEventCount: Specifies the maximum number of events to cache before further action is taken.

Use this property to specify the log event number threshold. This threshold may have different effects, depending on the rotation setting and/or the flush mode.

The default value of this setting is 100.

LogRotationMode: Specifies the log rotation mode.

Use this property to set the log rotation mode. The following values are defined:


none		No rotation
deleteolder		Delete older entries from the cache upon reaching LogMaxEventCount
keepolder		Keep older entries in the cache upon reaching LogMaxEventCount (newer entries are discarded)

MaxASN1BufferLength: Specifies the maximal allowed length for ASN.1 primitive tag data.

This global property limits the maximal allowed length for ASN.1 tag data for non-content-carrying structures, such as certificates, CRLs, or timestamps. It does not affect structures that can carry content, such as CMS/CAdES messages. This is a security property aiming at preventing DoS attacks.

MaxASN1TreeDepth: Specifies the maximal depth for processed ASN.1 trees.

This global property limits the maximal depth of ASN.1 trees that the component can handle without throwing an error. This is a security property aiming at preventing DoS attacks.

OCSPHashAlgorithm: Specifies the hash algorithm to be used to identify certificates in OCSP requests.

This global setting defines the hash algorithm to use in OCSP requests during chain validation. Some OCSP responders can only use older algorithms, in which case setting this property to SHA1 may be helpful.

StaticDNS: Specifies whether static DNS rules should be used.

Set this property to enable or disable static DNS rules for the class. Works only if UseOwnDNSResolver is set to true.

Supported values are:


none		No static DNS rules (default)
local		Local static DNS rules
global		Global static DNS rules

StaticIPAddress[domain]: Gets or sets an IP address for the specified domain name.

Use this property to get or set an IP address for the specified domain name in the internal (of the class) or global DNS rules storage depending on the StaticDNS value. The type of the IP address (IPv4 or IPv6) is determined automatically. If both addresses are available, they are devided by the | (pipe) character.

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.

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.

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.
