The JAdESSigner component signs Javascript content electronically.

Syntax

TsbxJAdESSigner

Remarks

JAdESSigner supports a range of digital signature formats over Javascript content, including JSON Web Signatures (JWS) and ETSI JSON Advanced Electronic Signatures (JAdES). JAdESSigner signer = new JAdESSigner(); signer.getNewSignature().setHashAlgorithm("SHA512"); // Default hashing algorithm SHA256 // Select the file which will be signed signer.setDataFile("MyExe.exe"); // Select the path where the signed file will be saved signer.setOutputFile("SignedFile.scs"); // Specify the certificate that shall be used for signing signer.setSigningCertificate(new Certificate("cert.pfx","password")); signer.getNewSignature().setLevel(JAdESSignature.jaslBaselineT); // Set the level of the signature // Provide the address of the Time Stamping Authority (TSA) server to be used for timestamping the signature signer.setTimestampServer("http://freetsa.org/tsr"); signer.sign(); // Sign

Standards and technologies supported

JAdESSigner can create signatures that match the following standards:

• Generic JSON Web Signatures (JWS) (RFC7515)
• JAdES: all profiles are supported (BES, EPES, T, LTV, B-B, B-T, and others) (ETSI TS 119 182-1)
• Timestamps using external TSAs.
• All industry-standard cryptographic algorithms (RSA, ECDSA, SHA256-512, and many others).

Configuring the signature spec

JWS and JAdES signatures can come in all sorts of flavours, with the primary factors being the signature format (how exactly the signed data is represented in bytes) and completeness (the extent of the trust information that is included in the signature). You can use the properties of your JAdESSigner object to configure these and other parameters. Typically, the service or software that you need to communicate with will provide you with a list of requirements that your JSON signature needs to satisfy. In some cases, they will also send you an example signature that you may use as a guide.

Typically, you will need to adjust the following categories of settings:

• Level (plain JWS, B, T, LT, or LTA). This can be adjusted with the property.
• Timestamp requirement: provide the address of your online TSA service via TimestampServer property.
• When creating LT/LTA signatures, tune up validation parameters via RevocationCheck, OfflineMode, and IgnoreChainValidationErrors properties.
• Configure the signature representation parameters such as CompactForm, Detached or FlattenedSignature.

The above are the most important settings from each category; you may need to adjust more specific settings, such as EPES policy parameters (such as ) or ContentType, to fine-tune your signature.

Signing certificates

JAdESSigner can use certificates residing on different media. Besides generic certificates stored in PFX or PEM files (A1), it can operate with non-exportable certificates residing on hardware media (A3), system stores/keychains, or in the cloud.

Non-exportable certificates can be accessed transparently via a Windows CSP or a PKCS#11 driver, if supplied by the certificate issuer. Proprietary or less interoperable media can be communicated with the external signing feature (see below).

Use CertificateManager and CertificateStorage components to load the signing certificate. Assign the certificate to SigningCertificate property, and optionally provide the remainder of its chain via the SigningChain property.

In the default configuration, JAdESSigner will do its best to collect the trust elements (certificates, CRLs, OCSP responses) required by the chosen signature level automatically. It will use all available sources, including the system stores, the chain validation cache, and the signature itself (when upgrading an existing signature). However, there can be situations where only some (or even none) of the trust elements are available in the public locations. This is particularly the case for internal, experimental, or test PKI environments. In such cases you might need to locate the missing elements manually and provide them to JAdESSigner via the KnownCertificates, KnownCRLs, and KnownOCSPs properties. You can also provide any trust anchors not included in the public Trusted Root directory via the TrustedCertificates collection.

Note: If signing with a non-exportable key (such as residing on a hardware device or in the cloud), please make sure you keep the original CertificateStorage object open until the signing is completed. This is because the storage component provides a 'bridge' to the private key. If the storage is closed prematurely, this bridge is destroyed, and the private key can't be used.

Signing the JSON

Now that you have configured the signature and certificate settings, you can proceed to signing. You can provide the JSON input in one of the following forms: as a file (assign the path to InputFile property), as a stream (assign to InputStream property), as a string (InputString), or as a byte array (assign to InputBytes). Similarly, the output can be collected in one of the same forms, either by passing the destination path or stream via OutputFile and OutputStream respectively, or by reading the resulting document bytes from the OutputBytes or OutputString property after the signing.

Having set up the input and output, call the component's Sign method. This will initiate the signing process. Depending on the settings, the signing may be as straightforward as calculating the document hash and signing it with the private key (e.g. when creating a B-level signature), or it may involve advanced chain validation routines (LT or LTA). During the latter the component contacts a number of external trust information sources (CA, CRL, and OCSP servers) to establish the validity of the signing certificate.

If a TSA server was provided via the TimestampServer property, the component will contact it too to timestamp the new signature.

During the signing JAdESSigner may fire events to let your code know of certain conditions. It may fire TLSCertValidate if one of the HTTP endpoints involved during the operation (which may be a CRL, OCSP, or TSA service) works over TLS and needs its certificate chain to be validated.

External signing and DCAuth

JAdESSigner, like many other components included in the product, supports two methods of signing with external keys. These methods are fully independent of each other: you can choose the one that suits your scenario best.

Synchronous method: ExternalSign

This is a simpler method that basically lets you infiltrate into the signing routine by taking care of the hash signing operation. The component does the rest of the job (hash calculation, preparation of signature objects, CRL/OCSP retrieval).

To initiate this method, call SignExternal instead of Sign. When the hash is ready, it will be passed back to your code with ExternalSign event. Your event handler needs to sign the hash with the private key and return the created signature back to the component - which will embed it into the document.

You don't need your signing certificate to contain an associated private key when using this method. The certificate itself (its public copy) may be needed though, as it is included in the hash calculation.

This method is synchronous, meaning SignExternal provides you the results immediately upon its completion.

Asynchronous method: DCAuth

DCAuth is a SecureBlackbox know-how technology. This protocol was designed to allow sharing of private keys across environments, allowing the signer and the private key to reside on different systems. It works in the following way:

• The signing party - such as JAdESSigner - initiates the operation using SignAsyncBegin call. This produces two outcomes: a pre-signed content (a JSON body with a blank signature placeholder), and a request state (an object containing a hash that needs to be signed). At this point the JAdESSigner instance can be released, and the process itself terminated (which may be useful when run as part of a web page).
• The request state is passed to the private key holder party. The private key holder passes the request state to a DCAuth object, which parses the request state, extracts the hash, and signs it. The output of DCAuth processing is another object, response state, which contains the signature. The private key holder then sends the response state back to the signing party.
• The signing party re-creates the signing controls, and passes the response state, together with the pre-signed content, to the signer's SignAsyncEnd method. SignAsyncEnd extracts the signature from the response state and incorporates it into the pre-signed object, hereby completing the signature.

This method is asynchronous in that sense that, from the signing party's viewpoint, it splits the signing operation into the pre-signing and completion stages which can be performed independently from each other and in different execution contexts. This makes this method particularly helpful for use in web pages and other scenarios where the signing key is not available in real time.

Fine-grained chain validation setup

Chain validation is a sophisticated, multi-faceted procedure that involves a lot of variables. Depending on the configuration of your operating environment, the specifics of the PKI framework being used, and the validation policy you need to follow, you may want to tune up your chain validation parameters so they fit them best. A summary of such parameters is given below.

• RevocationCheck lets you choose between and/or prioritize revocation origins. OCSP sources are often preferred to CRL because of their real-time capability and the smaller size of validation tokens they produce.
• OfflineMode is a master switch that stops the component from looking for any validation tokens online. If this property is switched on, the component will only use the KnownCertificates, TrustedCertificates, KnownCRLs, and KnownOCSPs collections to look for the missing validation material.
• IgnoreChainValidationErrors makes the component ignore any major validation issues it encounters (such us an untrusted chain or missing CRL). This option is handy for debugging and for creating signatures in the environments where the signing certificate is not trusted.
• KnownCertificates, KnownCRLs, and KnownOCSPs let you provide your own validation material. This may be useful when working in OfflineMode, where the signer has no access to the validation sources, or where the validation material has already been collected.
• TrustedCertificates lets you provide a list of trust anchors, either as a complement to the system's or as an alternative to it.
• BlockedCertificates lets you provide a list of blocked/distrusted certificates. Any CA certificate contained in it will be deemed untrusted/invalid.

The following parameters are not directly related to chain validation, but may have an implicit effect on it.

• Proxy, SocketSettings, and TLSSettings let you tune up the connectivity and TLS options in accordance with local preferences.
• TLSClientChain lets you provide the client certificate and its chain for TLS client authentication.
• Subscribe to TLSCertValidate to validate any TLS certificates of the services involved in chain validation.

The results of the chain validation procedure, upon its completion, are published in the following properties:

• ChainValidationResult contains the primary result of the chain validation routine: valid, valid but untrusted, invalid, or undefined.
• ChainValidationDetails provides the details of the factors that contributed to the chain validation result, such as an outdated certificate, a missing CRL, or a missing CA certificate.
• ValidationLog contains the detailed chain validation log. The log can often be very helpful in nailing down various validation issues.

Specifies whether component should validate any present signatures when the JSON opened.

Syntax

__property bool AutoValidateSignatures = { read=FAutoValidateSignatures, write=FSetAutoValidateSignatures };

Default Value

false

Remarks

This setting is switched off by default to speed up JSON processing. Even if the JWS/JAdES signature is loaded with this property set to false, you can validate the signatures manually on a later stage using the Revalidate method.

This property controls the size of the following arrays:

• BlockedCertBytes
• BlockedCertHandle

The array indices start at 0 and end at BlockedCertCount - 1.

This property is not available at design time.

Data Type

Integer

A unique identifier (fingerprint) of the CA certificate's cryptographic key.

Syntax

__property DynamicArray CertCAKeyID[int CertIndex] = { read=FCertCAKeyID };

Remarks

A unique identifier (fingerprint) of the CA certificate's cryptographic key.

Authority Key Identifier is a certificate extension which allows identification of certificates belonging to the same issuer, but with different public keys. It is a de-facto standard to include this extension in all certificates to facilitate chain building.

This setting cannot be set when generating a certificate as it always derives from another certificate property. CertificateManager generates this setting automatically if enough information is available to it: for self-signed certificates, this value is copied from the CertSubjectKeyID setting, and for lower-level certificates, from the parent certificate's subject key ID extension.

The CertIndex parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the CertCount property.

This property is read-only and not available at design time.

Data Type

Byte Array

CertCertType Property (JAdESSigner Component)

Returns the type of the entity contained in the Certificate object.

Syntax

__property TsbxJAdESSignerCertCertTypes CertCertType[int CertIndex] = { read=FCertCertType };

enum TsbxJAdESSignerCertCertTypes {
  ctUnknown=0,
  ctX509Certificate=1,
  ctX509CertificateRequest=2
};

Default Value

ctUnknown

Remarks

Returns the type of the entity contained in the Certificate object.

A Certificate object can contain two types of cryptographic objects: a ready-to-use X.509 certificate, or a certificate request ("an unsigned certificate"). Certificate requests can be upgraded to full certificates by signing them with a CA certificate.

Use the CertificateManager component to load or create new certificate and certificate requests objects.

The CertIndex parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the CertCount property.

This property is read-only and not available at design time.

Data Type

Syntax

__property String CertCRLDistributionPoints[int CertIndex] = { read=FCertCRLDistributionPoints };

Default Value

""

Remarks

Contains a list of locations of CRL distribution points used to check this certificate's validity. The list is taken from the respective certificate extension.

Use this property when generating a certificate to provide a list of CRL endpoints that should be made part of the new certificate.

The endpoints are provided as a list of CRLF-separated URLs. Note that this differs from the behaviour used in earlier product versions, where the "|" character was used as the location separator.

The CertIndex parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the CertCount property.

This property is read-only and not available at design time.

Data Type

The CertIndex parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the CertCount property.

This property is read-only and not available at design time.

Data Type

String

CertFriendlyName Property (JAdESSigner Component)

Contains an associated alias (friendly name) of the certificate.

Syntax

__property String CertFriendlyName[int CertIndex] = { read=FCertFriendlyName };

Default Value

""

Remarks

Contains an associated alias (friendly name) of the certificate. The friendly name is not a property of a certificate: it is maintained by the certificate media rather than being included in its DER representation. Windows certificate stores are one example of media that does support friendly names.

The CertIndex parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the CertCount property.

This property is read-only and not available at design time.

Data Type

Syntax

__property String CertHashAlgorithm[int CertIndex] = { read=FCertHashAlgorithm };

Default Value

""

Remarks

Provides means to set the hash algorithm to be used in the subsequent operation on the certificate (such as generation or key signing). It is not a property of a certificate; use CertSigAlgorithm to find out the hash algorithm that is part of the certificate signature.

The CertIndex parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the CertCount property.

This property is read-only and not available at design time.

Data Type

Returns the length of the public key in bits.

Syntax

__property int CertKeyBits[int CertIndex] = { read=FCertKeyBits };

Default Value

0

Remarks

Returns the length of the public key in bits.

This value indicates the length of the principal cryptographic parameter of the key, such as the length of the RSA modulus or ECDSA field. The key data returned by the CertPublicKeyBytes or CertPrivateKeyBytes property would typically contain auxiliary values, and therefore be longer.

The CertIndex parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the CertCount property.

This property is read-only and not available at design time.

Data Type

Integer

CertKeyFingerprint Property (JAdESSigner Component)

Syntax

__property String CertKeyFingerprint[int CertIndex] = { read=FCertKeyFingerprint };

Default Value

""

Remarks

Note that the key fingerprint is different from the certificate fingerprint accessible via the CertFingerprint property. The key fingeprint uniquely identifies the public key, and so can be the same for multiple certificates containing the same key.

The CertIndex parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the CertCount property.

This property is read-only and not available at design time.

Data Type

String

CertPolicyIDs Property (JAdESSigner Component)

Contains identifiers (OIDs) of the applicable certificate policies.

Syntax

__property String CertPolicyIDs[int CertIndex] = { read=FCertPolicyIDs };

Default Value

""

Remarks

Contains identifiers (OIDs) of the applicable certificate policies.

The Certificate Policies extension identifies a sequence of policies under which the certificate has been issued, and which regulate its usage.

Set this property when generating a certificate to propagate the policies information to the new certificate.

The policies are provided as a list of CRLF-separated entries. Note that this differs from the behaviour used in earlier product versions, where the "|" character was used as the policy element separator.

The CertIndex parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the CertCount property.

This property is read-only and not available at design time.

Data Type

String

CertPrivateKeyBytes Property (JAdESSigner Component)

Returns the certificate's private key in DER-encoded format.

Syntax

__property DynamicArray CertPrivateKeyBytes[int CertIndex] = { read=FCertPrivateKeyBytes };

Remarks

Returns the certificate's private key in DER-encoded format. It is normal for this property to be empty if the private key is non-exportable, which, for example, is typical for certificates originating from hardware security devices.

The CertIndex parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the CertCount property.

This property is read-only and not available at design time.

Data Type

Byte Array

CertPrivateKeyExists Property (JAdESSigner Component)

Indicates whether the certificate has a usable private key associated with it.

Syntax

__property bool CertPrivateKeyExists[int CertIndex] = { read=FCertPrivateKeyExists };

Default Value

false

Remarks

Indicates whether the certificate has a usable private key associated with it. If it is set to True, the certificate can be used for private key operations, such as signing or decryption.

This property is independent from CertPrivateKeyBytes, and can be set to True even if the former is empty. This would imply that the private key is non-exportable, but still can be used for cryptographic operations.

The CertIndex parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the CertCount property.

This property is read-only and not available at design time.

Data Type

Boolean

__property String ExternalCryptoKeyID = { read=FExternalCryptoKeyID, write=FSetExternalCryptoKeyID };

Default Value

""

Remarks

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 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";

FlattenedSignature Property (JAdESSigner Component)

Specifies if the flattened signature to be used.

Syntax

__property bool FlattenedSignature = { read=FFlattenedSignature, write=FSetFlattenedSignature };

Default Value

true

Remarks

This property determines whether to use the flattened JWS JSON serialization format. This format is optimized for the single digital signature case and flattens the general JWS JSON serialization syntax by removing the "signatures" member and instead placing the "protected", "header", and "signature" members at the top-level JSON object (at the same level as the "payload" member).

When the FlattenedSignature property is set to "true" value, the signature will be represented using the flattened JWS JSON serialization format, but it is only applicable when there is a single signature involved.

When the property is set to "false" value, the signature will be represented using the general JWS JSON serialization format.

};

Default Value

crcAuto

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.

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&ignorenonce=true

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.

The ignorenonce parameter allows you to switch off client nonce verification to enable compatibility with TSA services that do not support nonce mirroring.

All the parameters are optional.

  crcAnyCRL=5,
  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.

This property is not available at design time.

Sign Method (JAdESSigner Component)

Creates a new JAdES/JWS signature over the provided data.

Syntax

void __fastcall Sign();

Remarks

Call this method to produce a new signature over the provided data.

SignAsyncBegin Method (JAdESSigner Component)

Initiates the asynchronous signing operation.

Syntax

String __fastcall SignAsyncBegin();

Remarks

When using the DC framework, call this method to initiate the asynchronous signing process. Upon completion, a pre-signed copy of the document will be saved in OutputFile (or OutputStream). Keep the pre-signed copy somewhere local, and pass the returned string ('the request state') to the DC processor for handling.

Upon receiving the response state from the DC processor, assign the path to the pre-signed copy to InputFile (or InputStream), and call SignAsyncEnd to finalize the signing.

Note that depending on the signing method and DC configuration used, you may still need to provide the public part of the signing certificate via the SigningCertificate property.

Use the ExternalCrypto.AsyncDocumentID property to supply a unique document ID to include in the request. This is helpful when creating batches of multiple async requests, as it allows you to pass the whole response batch to SignAsyncEnd and expect it to recover the correct response from the batch automatically.

AsyncState is a message of the distributed cryptography (DC) protocol. The DC protocol is based on the exchange of async states between a DC client (an application that wants to sign a PDF, XML, or Office document) and a DC server (an application that controls access to the private key). An async state can carry one or more signing requests, comprised of document hashes, or one or more signatures produced over those hashes.

In a typical scenario you get a client-side async state from the SignAsyncBegin method. This state contains document hashes to be signed on the DC server side. You then send the async state to the DC server (often represented by the DCAuth component), which processes it and produces a matching signature state. The async state produced by the server is then passed to the SignAsyncEnd method.

SignAsyncEnd Method (JAdESSigner Component)

Completes the asynchronous signing operation.

Syntax

void __fastcall SignAsyncEnd(String AsyncReply);

Remarks

When using the DC framework, call this method upon receiving the response state from the DC processor to complete the asynchronous signing process.

Before calling this method, assign the path to the pre-signed copy of the document obtained from the prior SignAsyncBegin call to InputFile (or InputStream). The method will embed the signature into the pre-signed document, and save the complete signed document to OutputFile (or OutputStream).

Note that depending on the signing method and DC configuration used, you may still need to provide the public part of the signing certificate via the SigningCertificate property.

Use the ExternalCrypto.AsyncDocumentID parameter to pass a specific document ID if using batched AsyncReply. If used, it should match the value provided on the pre-signing (SignAsyncBegin) stage.

AsyncState is a message of the distributed cryptography (DC) protocol. The DC protocol is based on the exchange of async states between a DC client (an application that wants to sign a PDF, XML, or Office document) and a DC server (an application that controls access to the private key). An async state can carry one or more signing requests, comprised of document hashes, or one or more signatures produced over those hashes.

In a typical scenario you get a client-side async state from the SignAsyncBegin method. This state contains document hashes to be signed on the DC server side. You then send the async state to the DC server (often represented by the DCAuth component), which processes it and produces a matching signature state. The async state produced by the server is then passed to the SignAsyncEnd method.

SignExternal Method (JAdESSigner Component)

Signs the data using an external signing facility.

Syntax

void __fastcall SignExternal();

Remarks

Call this method to delegate the low-level signing operation to an external, remote, or custom signing engine. This method is useful if the signature has to be made by a device accessible through a custom or non-standard signing interface.

When all preparations are done and hash is computed, the component fires ExternalSign event which allows to pass the hash value for signing.

Timestamp Method (JAdESSigner Component)

Use this method to add timestamp.

Syntax

void __fastcall Timestamp(String SigLabel, int TimestampType);

Remarks

Call this method to timestamp the signature. Use the TimestampServer property to provide the address of the TSA (Time Stamping Authority) server which should be used for timestamping. Use the TimestampType parameter to specify the type of timestamp to create

Supported timestamp types:

Upgrade Method (JAdESSigner Component)

Upgrades existing JAdES signature to a new level.

Syntax

void __fastcall Upgrade(String SigLabel, int UpgradeKind);

Remarks

Use this method to upgrade JAdES signature to a new level specified by UpgradeKind. Signatures can normally be upgraded from less sophisticated levels (B, T, LT) to more sophisticated (T, LT, LTA).

Supported levels:

The supported additional upgrade kinds are:

ChainValidated Event (JAdESSigner Component)

Reports the completion of a certificate chain validation.

Syntax

typedef struct {
  int Index;
  String EntityLabel;
  String SubjectRDN;
  int ValidationResult;
  int ValidationDetails;
  bool Cancel;
} TsbxJAdESSignerChainValidatedEventParams;
typedef void __fastcall (__closure *TsbxJAdESSignerChainValidatedEvent)(System::TObject* Sender, TsbxJAdESSignerChainValidatedEventParams *e);
__property TsbxJAdESSignerChainValidatedEvent OnChainValidated = { read=FOnChainValidated, write=FOnChainValidated };

Remarks

This event is fired when a certificate chain validation routine completes. SubjectRDN identifies the owner of the validated certificate.

ValidationResult set to 0 (zero) indicates successful chain validation.

Any other value reports a failure, and ValidationDetails provides more details on its reasons.

ChainValidationProgress Event (JAdESSigner Component)

This event is fired multiple times during chain validation to report various stages of the validation procedure.

Syntax

typedef struct {
  String EventKind;
  String CertRDN;
  String CACertRDN;
  int Action;
} TsbxJAdESSignerChainValidationProgressEventParams;
typedef void __fastcall (__closure *TsbxJAdESSignerChainValidationProgressEvent)(System::TObject* Sender, TsbxJAdESSignerChainValidationProgressEventParams *e);
__property TsbxJAdESSignerChainValidationProgressEvent OnChainValidationProgress = { read=FOnChainValidationProgress, write=FOnChainValidationProgress };

Remarks

Subscribe to this event to be notified about chain validation progress. Use the Action parameter to alter the validation flow.

The EventKind parameter reports the nature of the event being reported. The CertRDN and CACertRDN parameters report the distinguished names of the certificates that are relevant for the event invocation (one or both can be empty, depending on EventKind). Use the Action parameter to adjust the validation flow.

Error Event (JAdESSigner Component)

Information about errors during signing.

Syntax

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

Remarks

This event is fired in case of exceptional conditions during the JSON processing.

ExternalSign Event (JAdESSigner Component)

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

Syntax

typedef struct {
  String OperationId;
  String HashAlgorithm;
  String Pars;
  String Data;
  String SignedData;
} TsbxJAdESSignerExternalSignEventParams;
typedef void __fastcall (__closure *TsbxJAdESSignerExternalSignEvent)(System::TObject* Sender, TsbxJAdESSignerExternalSignEventParams *e);
__property TsbxJAdESSignerExternalSignEvent 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(); };

HTTPHeaderFieldNeeded Event (JAdESSigner Component)

This event is fired when HTTP header field value is required.

__property TsbxJAdESSignerNotificationEvent 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.

This component can fire this event with the following EventID values:

ObjectNeeded Event (JAdESSigner Component)

This event is fired when object is required.

Syntax

typedef struct {
  String URI;
  String ContentType;
  bool Base64;

} TsbxJAdESSignerSignatureFoundEventParams;
typedef void __fastcall (__closure *TsbxJAdESSignerSignatureFoundEvent)(System::TObject* Sender, TsbxJAdESSignerSignatureFoundEventParams *e);
__property TsbxJAdESSignerSignatureFoundEvent OnSignatureFound = { read=FOnSignatureFound, write=FOnSignatureFound };

Remarks

This event tells the application that signature validation is about to start, and provides the details about the signer's certificate via its IssuerRDN, SerialNumber, and SubjectKeyID parameters. It fires for every signature located in the verified document or message.

The CertFound parameter is set to True if the component has found the needed certificate in one of the known locations, and to False otherwise, in which case you must provide it manually via the KnownCertificates property.

Signature validation consists of two independent stages: cryptographic signature validation and chain validation. Separate validation results are reported for each, with the and properties respectively.

Use the ValidateSignature and ValidateChain parameters to tell the verifier which stages to include in the validation.

SignatureValidated Event (JAdESSigner Component)

Marks the completion of the signature validation routine.

Syntax

typedef struct {
  int Index;
  String EntityLabel;
  String IssuerRDN;

__property TsbxJAdESSignerSignatureValidatedEvent OnSignatureValidated = { read=FOnSignatureValidated, write=FOnSignatureValidated };

Remarks

This event is fired upon the completion of the signature validation routine, and reports the respective validation result.

Use the IssuerRDN, SerialNumber, and/or SubjectKeyID parameters to identify the signing certificate.

ValidationResult is set to 0 if the validation has been successful, or to a non-zero value in case of a validation failure.

TimestampFound Event (JAdESSigner Component)

Signifies the start of a timestamp validation routine.

Syntax

typedef struct {
  int Index;
  String EntityLabel;
  String IssuerRDN;
  DynamicArray SerialNumber;
  DynamicArray SubjectKeyID;
  bool CertFound;
  bool ValidateTimestamp;
  bool ValidateChain;
} TsbxJAdESSignerTimestampFoundEventParams;
typedef void __fastcall (__closure *TsbxJAdESSignerTimestampFoundEvent)(System::TObject* Sender, TsbxJAdESSignerTimestampFoundEventParams *e);
__property TsbxJAdESSignerTimestampFoundEvent OnTimestampFound = { read=FOnTimestampFound, write=FOnTimestampFound };

Remarks

This event fires for every timestamp identified during signature processing, and reports the details about the signer's certificate via its IssuerRDN, SerialNumber, and SubjectKeyID parameters.

The CertFound parameter is set to True if the component has found the needed certificate in one of the known locations, and to False otherwise, in which case you must provide it manually via the KnownCertificates property.

Just like with signature validation, timestamp validation consists of two independent stages: cryptographic signature validation and chain validation. Separate validation results are reported for each, with the and properties respectively.

Use the ValidateSignature and ValidateChain parameters to tell the verifier which stages to include in the validation.

TimestampRequest Event (JAdESSigner Component)

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

__property TsbxJAdESSignerTimestampRequestEvent 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.

TimestampValidated Event (JAdESSigner Component)

Reports the completion of the timestamp validation routine.

Syntax

typedef struct {
  int Index;
  String EntityLabel;
  String IssuerRDN;

__property TsbxJAdESSignerTLSCertNeededEvent OnTLSCertNeeded = { read=FOnTLSCertNeeded, write=FOnTLSCertNeeded };

Remarks

This event fires to notify the implementation that a remote TLS server has requested a client certificate. The Host parameter identifies the host that makes a request, and the CANames parameter (optional, according to the TLS spec) advises on the accepted issuing CAs.

Use the TLSClientChain property in response to this event to provide the requested certificate. Please make sure the client certificate includes the associated private key. Note that you may set the certificates before the connection without waiting for this event to fire.

This event is preceded by the TLSHandshake event for the given host and, if the certificate was accepted, succeeded by the TLSEstablished event.

TLSCertValidate Event (JAdESSigner Component)

This event is fired upon receipt of the TLS server's certificate, allowing the user to control its acceptance.

Syntax

typedef struct {
  String ServerHost;
  String ServerIP;
  bool Accept;
} TsbxJAdESSignerTLSCertValidateEventParams;
typedef void __fastcall (__closure *TsbxJAdESSignerTLSCertValidateEvent)(System::TObject* Sender, TsbxJAdESSignerTLSCertValidateEventParams *e);

Remarks

This event is fired during a TLS handshake. Use the TLSServerChain property to access the certificate chain. In general, components may contact a number of TLS endpoints during their work, depending on their configuration.

Accept is assigned in accordance with the outcome of the internal validation check performed by the component, and can be adjusted if needed.

TLSEstablished Event (JAdESSigner Component)

Fires when a TLS handshake with Host successfully completes.

Syntax

typedef struct {
  String Host;
  String Version;
  String Ciphersuite;

__property TsbxJAdESSignerTLSEstablishedEvent OnTLSEstablished = { read=FOnTLSEstablished, write=FOnTLSEstablished };

Remarks

The component uses this event to notify the application about a successful completion of a TLS handshake.

The Version, Ciphersuite, and ConnectionId parameters indicate the security parameters of the new connection. Use the Abort parameter if you need to terminate the connection at this stage.

TLSHandshake Event (JAdESSigner Component)

Fires when a new TLS handshake is initiated, before the handshake commences.

Syntax

typedef struct {
  String Host;
  bool Abort;
} TsbxJAdESSignerTLSHandshakeEventParams;
typedef void __fastcall (__closure *TsbxJAdESSignerTLSHandshakeEvent)(System::TObject* Sender, TsbxJAdESSignerTLSHandshakeEventParams *e);
__property TsbxJAdESSignerTLSHandshakeEvent OnTLSHandshake = { read=FOnTLSHandshake, write=FOnTLSHandshake };

Remarks

The component uses this event to notify the application about the start of a new TLS handshake to Host. If the handshake is successful, this event will be followed by the TLSEstablished event. If the server chooses to request a client certificate, the TLSCertNeeded event will also be fired.

TLSShutdown Event (JAdESSigner Component)

Reports the graceful closure of a TLS connection.

Syntax

typedef struct {
  String Host;
} TsbxJAdESSignerTLSShutdownEventParams;
typedef void __fastcall (__closure *TsbxJAdESSignerTLSShutdownEvent)(System::TObject* Sender, TsbxJAdESSignerTLSShutdownEventParams *e);
__property TsbxJAdESSignerTLSShutdownEvent OnTLSShutdown = { read=FOnTLSShutdown, write=FOnTLSShutdown };

Remarks

This event notifies the application about the closure of an earlier established TLS connection. Note that only graceful connection closures are reported.

Config Settings (JAdESSigner 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.
