Remarks

This is a powerful and configurable class which can be used to validate all kinds of certificates and their chains.

The purpose of CertificateValidator is to validate certificate chains according to the X.509 specification. It supports a variety of technologies, including CRL and OCSP services, and can provide a comprehensive output on the certificate cryptographic validity, chain integrity, and trust levels. CertificateValidator is used internally in many other SecureBlackbox components, such as PDFSigner, HTTPClient, and OfficeVerifier.

To validate a certificate, please tune up the component as following:

• Assign the certificate to be validated to the Certificate property.
• Set RevocationCheck in accordance with your revocation check preferences.
• Enable UseSystemCertificates property to trust certificates that are trusted by the operating system. Copy any certificates that are not available in the standard system locations to KnownCertificates and TrustedCertificates collections (see Note 1 below).
• Optionally, adjust TLSSettings and SocketSettings.
• Adjust ValidationMoment if you would like to check the certificate validity at a different moment in time. Leave it unchanged to validate the certificate at the current time moment.
• Call Validate or ValidateForSSL method to initiate chain validation.

Depending on the complexity of the chain and the configuration of the component, the validation routine may take certain amount of time. The validator reports chain validation progress using a selection of events, such as BeforeCertificateProcessing, AfterCertificateProcessing, and CRLDownloaded events. It may also ask you for missing objects using CRLNeeded or CACertificateNeeded events. In each such event handler you can access the currently validated certificate via the CurrentCertificate property, and the interim validity figures via the InterimValidationResult and InterimValidationDetails property.

The return of the Validate (or similar) method indicates the completion of the validation procedure. The outcome of the chain validation is represented with the two parameters:

• ChainValidationResult reports the general validation outcome: valid, valid-but-untrusted, invalid, and unknown. As a rule, only the valid result can be taken as a good reason to consider the chain valid.
• ChainValidationDetails provides insights into the factors that caused the validation to fail.

Apart from these two parameters, you can check the low-level validation details by consulting the ValidationLog property. The validation log is often a great source for tracking and reacting to various validation issues.

Note 1: On Windows, CertificateValidator can use CA and ROOT system stores to look for any missing CA certificates and trust anchors. No similar functionality is currently available for other platforms, so in most cases you must provide your own list of trusted and CA certificates via TrustedCertificates and KnownCertificates collections to have your chains validate fully in Linux and macOS projects.

Note 2: The OfflineMode property is a handy way to check the completeness of your revocation/validation information. When the offline mode is on, CertificateValidator won't go online for any missing certificates, CRLs, and OCSP responses. Paired with a switched-off UseSystemCertificates property, it allows to make sure that any content provided via KnownCertificates, KnownCRLs, and KnownOCSPs represents the complete set of validation information required to validate the chain.

public function getRevocationCheck();


public function setRevocationCheck($value);

Procedural Interface

secureblackbox_certificatevalidator_get($res, 230 );


secureblackbox_certificatevalidator_set($res, 230, $value );

Default Value

1

Remarks

Revocation checking is necessary to ensure the integrity of the chain and obtain up-to-date certificate validity and trustworthiness information.

Certificate Revocation Lists (CRLs) and Online Certificate Status Protocol (OCSP) responses serve the same purpose of ensuring that the certificate had not been revoked by the Certificate Authority (CA) at the time of use. Depending on your circumstances and security policy requirements, you may want to use either one or both of the revocation information source types.

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.

Procedural Interface

secureblackbox_certificatevalidator_get($res, 322 );

Default Value

1

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.

Validates the certificate chain.

Object Oriented Interface

public function doValidate();

Procedural Interface

secureblackbox_certificatevalidator_do_validate($res);

Remarks

Use this method to validate the certificate chain that starts with Certificate.

The chain validation is a multi-step process which includes validation of each certificate in the chain up to the trusted anchor. The ultimate goal of this process is to establish the integrity of the chain and its trustworthiness.

Depending on the component tuneup, the validation process may differ drastically, even for the same certificate: it may be more or less rigorous, may include or exclude revocation checks, and may be more or less tolerant to minor chain issues.

When this process is completed, the final decision on the validity of the checked certificate is returned from this method, and also saved in ChainValidationResult property. Another property, ChainValidationDetails, provides insight into the reasons that contributed to that decision. Use ValidationLog to get a detailed step-by-step log of the entire validation process.

AfterCertificateProcessing Event (SecureBlackbox_CertificateValidator Class)

Marks the end of a single certificate processing step.

Object Oriented Interface

public function fireAfterCertificateProcessing($param);

Procedural Interface

secureblackbox_certificatevalidator_register_callback($res, 1, array($this, 'fireAfterCertificateProcessing'));

Parameter List

 'cert'
 'validity'
 'validationdetails'

Remarks

This event is fired when the class has finished processing Cert, and returns its Validity status and ValidationDetails.

'Processing' consists of one or more 'validations' (with one CA certificate each), completion of each of which is reported via AfterCertificateValidation events. If a certificate is signed by a single CA (which is a typical case), processing is synonymous to validation.

You can influence the validation process by altering the provided validation outcome, such as changing the invalid status to valid. This can be done via InterimValidationResult and InterimValidationDetails properties.

Validity status:

Validation details:

AfterCertificateValidation Event (SecureBlackbox_CertificateValidator Class)

Marks the end of a single certificate validation step.

Object Oriented Interface

public function fireAfterCertificateValidation($param);

Procedural Interface

secureblackbox_certificatevalidator_register_callback($res, 2, array($this, 'fireAfterCertificateValidation'));

Parameter List

 'cert'
 'cacert'
 'validity'
 'validationdetails'

Remarks

This event is fired when the class has finished validation of Cert with CACert, and returns its Validity status and ValidationDetails.

'Validation', in this context, means a single validation of a certificate with its CA certificate. For certificates with multiple CAs, validations are grouped into 'processings.' Each processing, therefore, is a set of validations of the same certificate with all its CAs.

You can influence the validation process by altering the provided validation outcome, such as changing the invalid status to valid. This can be done via InterimValidationResult and InterimValidationDetails properties.
