The JAdESSigner class signs Javascript content electronically.

Syntax

JAdESSigner

Remarks

JAdESSigner supports a range of digital signature formats over Javascript content, including JSON Web Signatures (JWS) and ETSI JSON Advanced Electronic Signatures (JAdES).

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:

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 class from looking for any validation tokens online. If this property is switched on, the class will only use the KnownCertificates, TrustedCertificates, KnownCRLs, and KnownOCSPs collections to look for the missing validation material.
  • IgnoreChainValidationErrors makes the class 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.

Data Type

Boolean

CompactForm Property (JAdESSigner Class)

Specifies if the JWS compact serialization to be used.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
int GetCompactForm();
int SetCompactForm(int bCompactForm); Unicode (Windows) BOOL GetCompactForm();
INT SetCompactForm(BOOL bCompactForm);
int secureblackbox_jadessigner_getcompactform(void* lpObj);
int secureblackbox_jadessigner_setcompactform(void* lpObj, int bCompactForm);
bool GetCompactForm();
int SetCompactForm(bool bCompactForm);

Default Value

FALSE

Remarks

When this property is set to "true" value, the JAdES component will use the JWS compact serialization format when saving a signature.

The JWS compact serialization format is a compact, Url safe representation of a JWS (JSON Web Signature) or JWE (JSON Web Encryption) object, used for transmitting security tokens.

The JWS compact serialization format supports only one signature without unprotected header (only JWS or JAdES BaselineB signature).

Data Type

Boolean

ContentType Property (JAdESSigner Class)

Specifies payload content type.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
char* GetContentType();
int SetContentType(const char* lpszContentType); Unicode (Windows) LPWSTR GetContentType();
INT SetContentType(LPCWSTR lpszContentType);
char* secureblackbox_jadessigner_getcontenttype(void* lpObj);
int secureblackbox_jadessigner_setcontenttype(void* lpObj, const char* lpszContentType);
QString GetContentType();
int SetContentType(QString qsContentType);

Default Value

""

Remarks

Use this property to indicate the content type of the JWS Payload.

This property provides a way for the application to disambiguate among different kinds of objects that might be present in the payload, but it is typically not used when the kind of object is already known. The value of this property is a string that conforms to the Internet Media Type (MIME) format, such as "text/plain" or "application/json".

It is optional to use this property and it is recommended to omit the "application/" prefix of the media type value when it is not needed. The recipient of the signed message should treat the value as if "application/" were prepended to it, unless it already contains a '/'.

Data Type

String

Detached Property (JAdESSigner Class)

Specifies whether a detached signature should be produced or verified.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
int GetDetached();
int SetDetached(int bDetached); Unicode (Windows) BOOL GetDetached();
INT SetDetached(BOOL bDetached);
int secureblackbox_jadessigner_getdetached(void* lpObj);

bool GetDetached();
int SetDetached(bool bDetached);

Default Value

FALSE

Remarks

Use this property to specify whether a detached signature should be produced or verified.

When this property is set to "true" value, the JWS payload will be detached from the signature and may either be a single detached object or the result of concatenating multiple detached data objects. In other words, the JWS payload and the signature are stored in separate objects.

If this property is set to "true" value, the user must provide the detached content via the DataFile or DataStream or DataBytes or DataString properties.

int SetExternalCryptoMethod(int iExternalCryptoMethod); int GetExternalCryptoMode();
int SetExternalCryptoMode(int iExternalCryptoMode); QString GetExternalCryptoPublicKeyAlgorithm();
int SetExternalCryptoPublicKeyAlgorithm(QString qsExternalCryptoPublicKeyAlgorithm);

Remarks

Use this property to tune-up remote cryptography settings. SecureBlackbox supports two independent types of external cryptography: synchronous (based on the ExternalSign event) and asynchronous (based on the DC protocol and the DCAuth signing component).

This property is read-only.

Data Type

SecureBlackboxExternalCrypto

ExtractPayload Property (JAdESSigner Class)

Specifies whether a payload should be extracted.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
int GetExtractPayload();
int SetExtractPayload(int bExtractPayload); Unicode (Windows) BOOL GetExtractPayload();

int secureblackbox_jadessigner_setextractpayload(void* lpObj, int bExtractPayload);
bool GetExtractPayload();
int SetExtractPayload(bool bExtractPayload);

Default Value

FALSE

Remarks

Use this property to specify whether a payload should be extracted when signature loaded. This applies only to non-detached signatures with a payload.

When this property is set to "true" value, the JWS payload will be extracted from the signature.

The user must provide the OutputFile or OutputStream properties with a filename or stream where to save the payload, if none is provided then payload is returned via OutputBytes or OutputString properties.

Data Type

Boolean

FIPSMode Property (JAdESSigner Class)

Reserved.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
int GetFIPSMode();
int SetFIPSMode(int bFIPSMode); Unicode (Windows) BOOL GetFIPSMode();
INT SetFIPSMode(BOOL bFIPSMode);
int secureblackbox_jadessigner_getfipsmode(void* lpObj);
int secureblackbox_jadessigner_setfipsmode(void* lpObj, int bFIPSMode);
bool GetFIPSMode();

Remarks

This property is reserved for future use.

Data Type

Boolean

FlattenedSignature Property (JAdESSigner Class)

Specifies if the flattened signature to be used.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
int GetFlattenedSignature();
int SetFlattenedSignature(int bFlattenedSignature); Unicode (Windows) BOOL GetFlattenedSignature();
INT SetFlattenedSignature(BOOL bFlattenedSignature);
int secureblackbox_jadessigner_getflattenedsignature(void* lpObj);
int secureblackbox_jadessigner_setflattenedsignature(void* lpObj, int bFlattenedSignature);
bool GetFlattenedSignature();
int SetFlattenedSignature(bool bFlattenedSignature);

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.

Data Type

Boolean

IgnoreChainValidationErrors Property (JAdESSigner Class)

Makes the class tolerant to chain validation errors.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)

int secureblackbox_jadessigner_setignorechainvalidationerrors(void* lpObj, int bIgnoreChainValidationErrors);
bool GetIgnoreChainValidationErrors();
int SetIgnoreChainValidationErrors(bool bIgnoreChainValidationErrors);

Default Value

FALSE

Remarks

If this property is set to True, any errors emerging during certificate chain validation will be ignored. This setting may be handy if the purpose of validation is the creation of an LTV signature, and the validation is performed in an environment that doesn't trust the signer's certificate chain.

Data Type

Boolean

InputBytes Property (JAdESSigner Class)

Use this property to pass the input to class in byte array form.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
int GetInputBytes(char* &lpInputBytes, int &lenInputBytes);

int GetKnownCertCount();
int SetKnownCertCount(int iKnownCertCount); QByteArray GetKnownCertBytes(int iKnownCertIndex); qint64 GetKnownCertHandle(int iKnownCertIndex);
int SetKnownCertHandle(int iKnownCertIndex, qint64 lKnownCertHandle);

Remarks

Use this property to supply a list of additional certificates that might be needed for chain validation. An example of a scenario where you might want to do that is when intermediary CA certificates are absent from the standard system locations (or when there are no standard system locations), and therefore should be supplied to the class manually.

The purpose of the certificates to be added to this collection is roughly equivalent to that of the Intermediate Certification Authorities system store in Windows.

Do not add trust anchors or root certificates to this collection: add them to TrustedCertificates instead.

This property is not available at design time.

Data Type

SecureBlackboxCertificate

int secureblackbox_jadessigner_setrevocationcheck(void* lpObj, int iRevocationCheck);
int GetRevocationCheck();
int SetRevocationCheck(int iRevocationCheck);

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.

crcNone0No revocation checking
crcAuto1Automatic mode selection. Currently this maps to crcAnyOCSPOrCRL, but it may change in the future.
crcAllCRL2Check all provided CRL endpoints for all chain certificates.
crcAllOCSP3Check all provided OCSP endpoints for all chain certificates.
crcAllCRLAndOCSP4Check all CRL and OCSP endpoints for all chain certificates.
crcAnyCRL5At least one CRL check for every certificate in the chain must succeed.
crcAnyOCSP6At least one OCSP check for every certificate in the chain must succeed.
crcAnyCRLOrOCSP7At least one CRL or OCSP check for every certificate in the chain must succeed. CRL endpoints are checked first.
crcAnyOCSPOrCRL8At least one CRL or OCSP check for every certificate in the chain must succeed. OCSP endpoints are checked first.

This setting controls the way the revocation checks are performed. 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.

Use this property to supply a list of trusted certificates that might be needed for chain validation. An example of a scenario where you might want to do that is when root CA certificates are absent from the standard system locations (or when there are no standard system locations), and therefore should be supplied to the component manually.

The purpose of this certificate collection is largely the same as that of the Windows Trusted Root Certification Authorities system store.

Use this property with extreme care as it directly affects chain verifiability; a wrong certificate added to the trusted list may result in bad chains being accepted, and forfeited signatures being recognized as genuine. Only add certificates that originate from the parties that you know and trust.

This property is not available at design time.

Data Type

SecureBlackboxCertificate

ValidationMoment Property (JAdESSigner Class)

The time point at which signature validity is to be established.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
char* GetValidationMoment();

QString Config(const QString& qsConfigurationString);

Remarks

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

These settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the class, access to these internal properties is provided through the Config method.

To set a configuration setting named PROPERTY, you must call Config("PROPERTY=VALUE"), where VALUE is the value of the setting expressed as a string. For boolean values, use the strings "True", "False", "0", "1", "Yes", or "No" (case does not matter).

To read (query) the value of a configuration setting, you must call Config("PROPERTY"). The value will be returned as a string.

Error Handling (C++)

SignAsyncBegin Method (JAdESSigner Class)

Initiates the asynchronous signing operation.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
char* SignAsyncBegin();

Unicode (Windows)
LPWSTR SignAsyncBegin();
char* secureblackbox_jadessigner_signasyncbegin(void* lpObj);
QString 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 class), which processes it and produces a matching signature state. The async state produced by the server is then passed to the SignAsyncEnd method.

Error Handling (C++)

This method returns a String value; after it returns, call the GetLastErrorCode() method to obtain its result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message.

SignAsyncEnd Method (JAdESSigner Class)

Completes the asynchronous signing operation.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
int SignAsyncEnd(const char* lpszAsyncReply);

Unicode (Windows)
INT SignAsyncEnd(LPCWSTR lpszAsyncReply);
int secureblackbox_jadessigner_signasyncend(void* lpObj, const char* lpszAsyncReply);
int SignAsyncEnd(const QString& qsAsyncReply);

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 class), which processes it and produces a matching signature state. The async state produced by the server is then passed to the SignAsyncEnd method.

Error Handling (C++)

This method returns a result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message. (Note: This method's result code can also be obtained by calling the GetLastErrorCode() method after it returns.)

SignExternal Method (JAdESSigner Class)

Signs the data using an external signing facility.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
int SignExternal();

Unicode (Windows)
INT SignExternal();
int secureblackbox_jadessigner_signexternal(void* lpObj);
int 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 class fires ExternalSign event which allows to pass the hash value for signing.

Error Handling (C++)

This method returns a result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message. (Note: This method's result code can also be obtained by calling the GetLastErrorCode() method after it returns.)

Error Handling (C++)

This method returns a result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message. (Note: This method's result code can also be obtained by calling the GetLastErrorCode() method after it returns.)

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

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
virtual int FireChainValidationProgress(JAdESSignerChainValidationProgressEventParams *e);
typedef struct {
const char *EventKind;
const char *CertRDN;
const char *CACertRDN;
int Action; int reserved; } JAdESSignerChainValidationProgressEventParams;

  int EventRetVal();
  void SetEventRetVal(int iRetVal);
};
// To handle, connect one or more slots to this signal. void ChainValidationProgress(JAdESSignerChainValidationProgressEventParams *e);
// Or, subclass JAdESSigner and override this emitter function. virtual int FireChainValidationProgress(JAdESSignerChainValidationProgressEventParams *e) {...}

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.

veaAuto0Handle the action automatically (the default behaviour)

veaContinue1Accept the request implied by the event (accept the certificate, allow the object retrieval)

veaReject2Reject the request implied by the event (reject the certificate, disallow the object retrieval)

veaAcceptNow3Accept the validated certificate immediately

veaAbortNow4Abort the validation, reject the certificate

Error Event (JAdESSigner Class)

Information about errors during signing.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
virtual int FireError(JAdESSignerErrorEventParams *e);
typedef struct {
int ErrorCode;
const char *Description; int reserved; } JAdESSignerErrorEventParams;
Unicode (Windows) virtual INT FireError(JAdESSignerErrorEventParams *e);
typedef struct {
INT ErrorCode;
LPCWSTR Description; INT reserved; } JAdESSignerErrorEventParams;
#define EID_JADESSIGNER_ERROR 6

virtual INT SECUREBLACKBOX_CALL FireError(INT &iErrorCode, LPSTR &lpszDescription);
class JAdESSignerErrorEventParams {

  void SetEventRetVal(int iRetVal);
};
// To handle, connect one or more slots to this signal. void Error(JAdESSignerErrorEventParams *e);
// Or, subclass JAdESSigner and override this emitter function. virtual int FireError(JAdESSignerErrorEventParams *e) {...}

Remarks

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

ErrorCode contains an error code and Description contains a textual description of the error.

ExternalSign Event (JAdESSigner Class)

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

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
virtual int FireExternalSign(JAdESSignerExternalSignEventParams *e);
typedef struct {
const char *OperationId;
const char *HashAlgorithm;
const char *Pars;
const char *Data;
char *SignedData; int reserved; } JAdESSignerExternalSignEventParams;
Unicode (Windows) virtual INT FireExternalSign(JAdESSignerExternalSignEventParams *e);
typedef struct {
LPCWSTR OperationId;
LPCWSTR HashAlgorithm;
LPCWSTR Pars;
LPCWSTR Data;
LPWSTR SignedData; INT reserved; } JAdESSignerExternalSignEventParams;
#define EID_JADESSIGNER_EXTERNALSIGN 7

virtual INT SECUREBLACKBOX_CALL FireExternalSign(LPSTR &lpszOperationId, LPSTR &lpszHashAlgorithm, LPSTR &lpszPars, LPSTR &lpszData, LPSTR &lpszSignedData);
class JAdESSignerExternalSignEventParams {
public:
  const QString &OperationId();

  const QString &HashAlgorithm();

  const QString &Pars();

  const QString &Data();

  const QString &SignedData();
  void SetSignedData(const QString &qsSignedData);

  int EventRetVal();
  void SetEventRetVal(int iRetVal);
};
// To handle, connect one or more slots to this signal. void ExternalSign(JAdESSignerExternalSignEventParams *e);
// Or, subclass JAdESSigner and override this emitter function. virtual int FireExternalSign(JAdESSignerExternalSignEventParams *e) {...}

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 class via the SignedData parameter.

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

The class 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 Class)

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

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
virtual int FireHTTPHeaderFieldNeeded(JAdESSignerHTTPHeaderFieldNeededEventParams *e);
typedef struct {
const char *FieldName;
char *FieldValues; int reserved; } JAdESSignerHTTPHeaderFieldNeededEventParams;
Unicode (Windows) virtual INT FireHTTPHeaderFieldNeeded(JAdESSignerHTTPHeaderFieldNeededEventParams *e);
typedef struct {

  void SetEventRetVal(int iRetVal);
};
// To handle, connect one or more slots to this signal. void HTTPHeaderFieldNeeded(JAdESSignerHTTPHeaderFieldNeededEventParams *e);
// Or, subclass JAdESSigner and override this emitter function. virtual int FireHTTPHeaderFieldNeeded(JAdESSignerHTTPHeaderFieldNeededEventParams *e) {...}

Remarks

This event is triggered when the type of signed data is HttpHeaders mechanism (jasdtHttpHeaders). It indicates that a HTTP header field value is needed.

For "(request target)" field name value return request method and target URI seperated by space character. For example: "GET https://nsoftware.com/sbb/"

Loaded Event (JAdESSigner Class)

This event is fired when the JSON has been loaded into memory.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
virtual int FireLoaded(JAdESSignerLoadedEventParams *e);
typedef struct {
int Cancel; int reserved; } JAdESSignerLoadedEventParams;
Unicode (Windows) virtual INT FireLoaded(JAdESSignerLoadedEventParams *e);
typedef struct {

};
// To handle, connect one or more slots to this signal. void Loaded(JAdESSignerLoadedEventParams *e);
// Or, subclass JAdESSigner and override this emitter function. virtual int FireLoaded(JAdESSignerLoadedEventParams *e) {...}

Remarks

The handler for this event is a good place to check JWS/JAdES signature properties, which may be useful when preparing the signature.

Set Cancel to true to terminate JSON processing on this stage.

Notification Event (JAdESSigner Class)

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

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
virtual int FireNotification(JAdESSignerNotificationEventParams *e);
typedef struct {
const char *EventID;
const char *EventParam; int reserved; } JAdESSignerNotificationEventParams;
Unicode (Windows) virtual INT FireNotification(JAdESSignerNotificationEventParams *e);
typedef struct {
LPCWSTR EventID;
LPCWSTR EventParam; INT reserved; } JAdESSignerNotificationEventParams;
#define EID_JADESSIGNER_NOTIFICATION 10

virtual INT SECUREBLACKBOX_CALL FireNotification(LPSTR &lpszEventID, LPSTR &lpszEventParam);
class JAdESSignerNotificationEventParams {
public:
  const QString &EventID();

  const QString &EventParam();

  int EventRetVal();
  void SetEventRetVal(int iRetVal);
};
// To handle, connect one or more slots to this signal. void Notification(JAdESSignerNotificationEventParams *e);
// Or, subclass JAdESSigner and override this emitter function. virtual int FireNotification(JAdESSignerNotificationEventParams *e) {...}

Remarks

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

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

LoadedReports the completion of signature processing by the component. Use the event handler to access signature-related information. The EventParam value passed with this EventID is empty.
PayloadExtractedReports the completion of payload extraction by the component if ExtractPayload property is enabled. Use the event handler to access payload. The EventParam value passed with this EventID is empty.
BeforeTimestampThis event is fired before a timestamp is requested from the timestamping authority. Use the event handler to modify TSA and HTTP settings.
TimestampErrorThis event is only fired if the class failed to obtain a timestamp from the timestamping authority. The EventParam parameter contains extended error info.
TimestampRequestA timestamp is requested from the custom timestamping authority. This event is only fired if TimestampServer was set to a virtual:// URI. The EventParam parameter contains the TSP request (or the plain hash, depending on the value provided to TimestampServer), in base16, that needs to be sent to the TSA.

Use the event handler to send the request to the TSA. Upon receiving the response, assign it, in base16, to the TimestampResponse configuration property.

ObjectNeeded Event (JAdESSigner Class)

This event is fired when object is required.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
virtual int FireObjectNeeded(JAdESSignerObjectNeededEventParams *e);
typedef struct {
const char *URI;
const char *ContentType;
int Base64; int reserved; } JAdESSignerObjectNeededEventParams;

class JAdESSignerObjectNeededEventParams {
public:
  const QString &URI();

  const QString &ContentType();

  bool Base64();
  void SetBase64(bool bBase64);

  int EventRetVal();
  void SetEventRetVal(int iRetVal);
};
// To handle, connect one or more slots to this signal. void ObjectNeeded(JAdESSignerObjectNeededEventParams *e);
// Or, subclass JAdESSigner and override this emitter function. virtual int FireObjectNeeded(JAdESSignerObjectNeededEventParams *e) {...}

Remarks

This event is triggered when the type of signed data is ObjectIdByURI mechanism (jasdtObjectIdByURI). It is fired to request the data to be signed/verified.

The event handler must pass object data to the component via DataFile or DataStream or DataBytes or DataString property.

ObjectValidate Event (JAdESSigner Class)

This event is fired when object should be verified by user.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
virtual int FireObjectValidate(JAdESSignerObjectValidateEventParams *e);
typedef struct {
const char *URI;
const char *ContentType;
const char *HashAlgorithm;
const char *Hash; int lenHash;

  bool Base64();

  bool Valid();
  void SetValid(bool bValid);

  int EventRetVal();
  void SetEventRetVal(int iRetVal);
};
// To handle, connect one or more slots to this signal. void ObjectValidate(JAdESSignerObjectValidateEventParams *e);
// Or, subclass JAdESSigner and override this emitter function. virtual int FireObjectValidate(JAdESSignerObjectValidateEventParams *e) {...}

Remarks

This event is triggered when the type of signed data is ObjectIdByURIHash mechanism (jasdtObjectIdByURIHash). It is fired to validate the detached object.

The event handler must pass the object validity to the component via Valid parameter.

SignatureFound Event (JAdESSigner Class)

Signifies the start of signature validation.

  bool CertFound();

  bool ValidateSignature();
  void SetValidateSignature(bool bValidateSignature);

  bool ValidateChain();
  void SetValidateChain(bool bValidateChain);

  int EventRetVal();
  void SetEventRetVal(int iRetVal);
};
// To handle, connect one or more slots to this signal. void SignatureFound(JAdESSignerSignatureFoundEventParams *e);
// Or, subclass JAdESSigner and override this emitter function. virtual int FireSignatureFound(JAdESSignerSignatureFoundEventParams *e) {...}

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 class 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 Class)

Marks the completion of the signature validation routine.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)

// To handle, connect one or more slots to this signal. void SignatureValidated(JAdESSignerSignatureValidatedEventParams *e);
// Or, subclass JAdESSigner and override this emitter function. virtual int FireSignatureValidated(JAdESSignerSignatureValidatedEventParams *e) {...}

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.

svtValid0The signature is valid

svtUnknown1Signature validity is unknown

svtCorrupted2The signature is corrupted

svtSignerNotFound3Failed to acquire the signing certificate. The signature cannot be validated.

  int EventRetVal();
  void SetEventRetVal(int iRetVal);
};
// To handle, connect one or more slots to this signal. void TimestampFound(JAdESSignerTimestampFoundEventParams *e);
// Or, subclass JAdESSigner and override this emitter function. virtual int FireTimestampFound(JAdESSignerTimestampFoundEventParams *e) {...}

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 class 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 Class)

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

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
virtual int FireTimestampRequest(JAdESSignerTimestampRequestEventParams *e);
typedef struct {
const char *TSA;
const char *TimestampRequest;
char *TimestampResponse;
int SuppressDefault; int reserved; } JAdESSignerTimestampRequestEventParams;
Unicode (Windows) virtual INT FireTimestampRequest(JAdESSignerTimestampRequestEventParams *e);
typedef struct {

// To handle, connect one or more slots to this signal. void TimestampRequest(JAdESSignerTimestampRequestEventParams *e);
// Or, subclass JAdESSigner and override this emitter function. virtual int FireTimestampRequest(JAdESSignerTimestampRequestEventParams *e) {...}

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.

// Or, subclass JAdESSigner and override this emitter function. virtual int FireTLSCertNeeded(JAdESSignerTLSCertNeededEventParams *e) {...}

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 Class)

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

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
virtual int FireTLSCertValidate(JAdESSignerTLSCertValidateEventParams *e);
typedef struct {
const char *ServerHost;

// Or, subclass JAdESSigner and override this emitter function. virtual int FireTLSCertValidate(JAdESSignerTLSCertValidateEventParams *e) {...}

Remarks

This event is fired during a TLS handshake. Use the TLSServerChain property to access the certificate chain. In general, classes 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 class, and can be adjusted if needed.

TLSEstablished Event (JAdESSigner Class)

Fires when a TLS handshake with Host successfully completes.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
virtual int FireTLSEstablished(JAdESSignerTLSEstablishedEventParams *e);
typedef struct {
const char *Host;
const char *Version;
const char *Ciphersuite;
const char *ConnectionId; int lenConnectionId;
int Abort; int reserved; } JAdESSignerTLSEstablishedEventParams;
Unicode (Windows) virtual INT FireTLSEstablished(JAdESSignerTLSEstablishedEventParams *e);
typedef struct {
LPCWSTR Host;
LPCWSTR Version;
LPCWSTR Ciphersuite;
LPCSTR ConnectionId; INT lenConnectionId;
BOOL Abort; INT reserved; } JAdESSignerTLSEstablishedEventParams;
#define EID_JADESSIGNER_TLSESTABLISHED 20

virtual INT SECUREBLACKBOX_CALL FireTLSEstablished(LPSTR &lpszHost, LPSTR &lpszVersion, LPSTR &lpszCiphersuite, LPSTR &lpConnectionId, INT &lenConnectionId, BOOL &bAbort);
class JAdESSignerTLSEstablishedEventParams {
public:
  const QString &Host();

  const QString &Version();

  const QString &Ciphersuite();

  const QByteArray &ConnectionId();

  bool Abort();
  void SetAbort(bool bAbort);

  int EventRetVal();
  void SetEventRetVal(int iRetVal);
};
// To handle, connect one or more slots to this signal. void TLSEstablished(JAdESSignerTLSEstablishedEventParams *e);
// Or, subclass JAdESSigner and override this emitter function. virtual int FireTLSEstablished(JAdESSignerTLSEstablishedEventParams *e) {...}

Remarks

The class 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 Class)

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

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
virtual int FireTLSHandshake(JAdESSignerTLSHandshakeEventParams *e);
typedef struct {
const char *Host;
int Abort; int reserved; } JAdESSignerTLSHandshakeEventParams;
Unicode (Windows) virtual INT FireTLSHandshake(JAdESSignerTLSHandshakeEventParams *e);
typedef struct {
LPCWSTR Host;
BOOL Abort; INT reserved; } JAdESSignerTLSHandshakeEventParams;
#define EID_JADESSIGNER_TLSHANDSHAKE 21

virtual INT SECUREBLACKBOX_CALL FireTLSHandshake(LPSTR &lpszHost, BOOL &bAbort);
class JAdESSignerTLSHandshakeEventParams {
public:
  const QString &Host();

  bool Abort();
  void SetAbort(bool bAbort);

  int EventRetVal();
  void SetEventRetVal(int iRetVal);
};
// To handle, connect one or more slots to this signal. void TLSHandshake(JAdESSignerTLSHandshakeEventParams *e);
// Or, subclass JAdESSigner and override this emitter function. virtual int FireTLSHandshake(JAdESSignerTLSHandshakeEventParams *e) {...}

Remarks

The class 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 Class)

Reports the graceful closure of a TLS connection.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
virtual int FireTLSShutdown(JAdESSignerTLSShutdownEventParams *e);
typedef struct {
const char *Host; int reserved; } JAdESSignerTLSShutdownEventParams;
Unicode (Windows) virtual INT FireTLSShutdown(JAdESSignerTLSShutdownEventParams *e);
typedef struct {
LPCWSTR Host; INT reserved; } JAdESSignerTLSShutdownEventParams;
#define EID_JADESSIGNER_TLSSHUTDOWN 22

virtual INT SECUREBLACKBOX_CALL FireTLSShutdown(LPSTR &lpszHost);
class JAdESSignerTLSShutdownEventParams {
public:
  const QString &Host();

  int EventRetVal();
  void SetEventRetVal(int iRetVal);
};
// To handle, connect one or more slots to this signal. void TLSShutdown(JAdESSignerTLSShutdownEventParams *e);
// Or, subclass JAdESSigner and override this emitter function. virtual int FireTLSShutdown(JAdESSignerTLSShutdownEventParams *e) {...}

Remarks

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

Certificate Type

Encapsulates an individual X.509 certificate.

Syntax

SecureBlackboxCertificate (declared in secureblackbox.h)

Remarks

This type keeps and provides access to X.509 certificate details.

Fields

Bytes
char* (read-only)

Default Value:

Returns the raw certificate data in DER format.

CA
int

Default Value: FALSE

Indicates whether the certificate has a CA capability. For the certificate to be considered a CA, it must have its Basic Constraints extension set with the CA indicator enabled.

Set this property when generating a new certificate to have its Basic Constraints extension generated automatically.

CAKeyID
char* (read-only)

Default Value:

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 setting, and for lower-level certificates, from the parent certificate's subject key ID extension.

CertType
int (read-only)

Default Value: 0

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 class to load or create new certificate and certificate requests objects.

CRLDistributionPoints
char*

Default Value: ""

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.

Curve
char*

Default Value: ""

Specifies the elliptic curve associated with the certificate's public key. This setting only applies to certificates containing EC keys.

Fingerprint
char* (read-only)

Default Value: ""

Contains the fingerprint (a hash imprint) of this certificate.

While there is no formal standard defining what a fingerprint is, a SHA1 hash of the certificate's DER-encoded body is typically used.

FriendlyName
char* (read-only)

Default Value: ""

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.

Handle
int64

Default Value: 0

Allows to get or set a 'handle', a unique identifier of the underlying property object. Use this property to assign objects of the same type in a quicker manner, without copying them fieldwise.

When you pass a handle of one object to another, the source object is copied to the destination rather than assigned. It is safe to get rid of the original object after such operation. pdfSigner.setSigningCertHandle(certMgr.getCertHandle());

HashAlgorithm
char*

Default Value: ""

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 to find out the hash algorithm that is part of the certificate signature.

Use the , , and properties to get more details about the key the certificate contains.

KeyBits
int (read-only)

Default Value: 0

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 or property would typically contain auxiliary values, and therefore be longer.

KeyFingerprint
char* (read-only)

Default Value: ""

Returns a SHA1 fingerprint of the public key contained in the certificate.

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

KeyUsage
int

Default Value: 0

Indicates the purposes of the key contained in the certificate, in the form of an OR'ed flag set.

This value is a bit mask of the following values:

ckuUnknown0x00000Unknown key usage

ckuDigitalSignature0x00001Digital signature

ckuNonRepudiation0x00002Non-repudiation

ckuKeyEncipherment0x00004Key encipherment

ckuKeyPurposeClientAuth0x10000Kerberos - client authentication

ckuKeyPurposeKDC0x20000Kerberos - KDC

Set this property before generating the certificate to propagate the key usage flags to the new certificate.

KeyValid
int (read-only)

Default Value: FALSE

Returns True if the certificate's key is cryptographically valid, and False otherwise.

OCSPLocations
char*

Default Value: ""

Locations of OCSP services that can be used to check this certificate's validity in real time, as recorded by the CA.

Set this property before calling the certificate manager's Generate method to propagate it to the new certificate.

The OCSP locations 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.

OCSPNoCheck
int

Default Value: FALSE

Accessor to the value of the certificate's ocsp-no-check extension.

Origin
int (read-only)

Default Value: 0

Returns the location that the certificate was taken or loaded from.

PolicyIDs
char*

Default Value: ""

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.

PrivateKeyBytes
char* (read-only)

Default Value:

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.

PrivateKeyExists
int (read-only)

Default Value: FALSE

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 , 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.

PrivateKeyExtractable
int (read-only)

Default Value: FALSE

Indicates whether the private key is extractable (exportable).

PublicKeyBytes
char* (read-only)

Default Value:

Contains the certificate's public key in DER format.

This typically would contain an ASN.1-encoded public key value. The exact format depends on the type of the public key contained in the certificate.

Qualified
int (read-only)

Default Value: FALSE

Indicates whether the certificate is qualified.

This property is set to True if the certificate is confirmed by a Trusted List to be qualified.

QualifiedStatements
int

Default Value: 0

Returns a simplified qualified status of the certificate.

Qualifiers
char* (read-only)

Default Value: ""

A list of qualifiers.

Contains a comma-separated list of qualifier aliases for the certificate, for example QCP-n-qscd,QCWithSSCD.

SelfSigned
int (read-only)

Default Value: FALSE

Indicates whether the certificate is self-signed (root) or signed by an external CA.

SerialNumber
char*

Default Value:

Returns the certificate's serial number.

The serial number is a binary string that uniquely identifies a certificate among others issued by the same CA. According to the X.509 standard, the (issuer, serial number) pair should be globally unique to facilitate chain building.

SigAlgorithm
char* (read-only)

Default Value: ""

Indicates the algorithm that was used by the CA to sign this certificate.

A signature algorithm typically combines hash and public key algorithms together, such as sha256WithRSAEncryption or ecdsa-with-SHA256.

Source
int (read-only)

Default Value: 0

Returns the source (location or disposition) of a cryptographic primitive entity, such as a certificate, CRL, or OCSP response.

Subject
char* (read-only)

Default Value: ""

The common name of the certificate holder, typically an individual's name, a URL, an e-mail address, or a company name. This is part of a larger set of credentials available via .

SubjectAlternativeName
char*

Default Value: ""

Returns or sets the value of the Subject Alternative Name extension of the certificate.

Subject alternative names are used to provide additional names that are impractical to store in the main field. For example, it is often used to store all the domain names that a TLS certificate is authorized to protect.

The alternative names 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 element separator.

SubjectKeyID
char*

Default Value:

Contains a unique identifier of the certificate's cryptographic key.

Subject Key Identifier is a certificate extension which allows a specific public key to be associated with a certificate holder. Typically, subject key identifiers of CA certificates are recorded as respective CA key identifiers in the subordinate certificates that they issue, which facilitates chain building.

The and properties of self-signed certificates typically contain identical values, as in that specific case, the issuer and the subject are the same entity.

SubjectRDN
char*

Default Value: ""

A list of Property=Value pairs that uniquely identify the certificate holder (subject).

Depending on the purpose of the certificate and the policies of the CA that issued it, the values included in the subject record may differ drastically and contain business or personal names, web URLs, email addresses, and other data.

Example: /C=US/O=Oranges and Apples, Inc./OU=Accounts Receivable/1.2.3.4.5=Value with unknown OID/CN=Margaret Watkins.

Valid
int (read-only)

Default Value: FALSE

Indicates whether or not the signature over the certificate or the request is valid and matches the public key contained in the CA certificate/request.

ValidFrom
char*

Default Value: ""

The time point at which the certificate becomes valid, in UTC.

ValidTo
char*

Default Value: ""

The time point at which the certificate expires, in UTC.

Constructors

Certificate()

Creates a new object with default field values.

CRL Type

Represents a Certificate Revocation List.

Syntax

SecureBlackboxCRL (declared in secureblackbox.h)

Remarks

CRLs store information about revoked certificates, i.e., certificates that have been identified as invalid by their issuing certificate authority (CA) for any number of reasons.

Each CRL object lists certificates from a single CA and identifies them by their serial numbers. A CA may or may not publish a CRL, may publish several CRLs, or may publish the same CRL in multiple locations.

Unlike OCSP responses, CRLs only list certificates that have been revoked. They do not list certificates that are still valid.

Fields

Bytes
char* (read-only)

Default Value:

Returns the raw CRL data in DER format.

CAKeyID
char*

Default Value:

A unique identifier (fingerprint) of the CA certificate's private key, if present in the CRL.

EntryCount
int (read-only)

Default Value: 0

Returns the number of certificate status entries in the CRL.

Handle
int64

Default Value: 0

Allows to get or set a 'handle', a unique identifier of the underlying property object. Use this property to assign objects of the same type in a quicker manner, without copying them fieldwise.

When you pass a handle of one object to another, the source object is copied to the destination rather than assigned. It is safe to get rid of the original object after such operation. pdfSigner.setSigningCertHandle(certMgr.getCertHandle());

Issuer
char* (read-only)

Default Value: ""

The common name of the CRL issuer (CA), typically a company name.

IssuerRDN
char* (read-only)

Default Value: ""

A collection of information, in the form of [OID, Value] pairs, uniquely identifying the CRL issuer.

Location
char* (read-only)

Default Value: ""

The URL that the CRL was downloaded from.

NextUpdate
char*

Default Value: ""

The planned time and date of the next version of this CRL to be published.

SigAlgorithm
char*

Default Value: "0"

The public key algorithm that was used by the CA to sign this CRL.

Source
int (read-only)

Default Value: 0

Returns the source (location or disposition) of a cryptographic primitive entity, such as a certificate, CRL, or OCSP response.

TBS
char* (read-only)

Default Value:

The to-be-signed part of the CRL (the CRL without the signature part).

ThisUpdate
char*

Default Value: ""

The date and time at which this version of the CRL was published.

Constructors

CRL()

Creates an empty CRL object.

ExternalCrypto Type

Specifies the parameters of external cryptographic calls.

Syntax

SecureBlackboxExternalCrypto (declared in secureblackbox.h)

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
char*

Default Value: ""

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 the pre-signing (SignAsyncBegin) and completion (SignAsyncEnd) stages.

CustomParams
char*

Default Value: ""

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

Data
char*

Default Value: ""

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

ExternalHashCalculation
int

Default Value: FALSE

Specifies whether the message hash is to be calculated at the external endpoint. Please note that this mode is not supported by the DCAuth class.

If set to true, the class will pass a few kilobytes of to-be-signed data from the document to the OnExternalSign event. This only applies when SignExternal() is called.

HashAlgorithm
char*

Default Value: "SHA256"

Specifies the request's signature hash algorithm.

KeyID
char*

Default Value: ""

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 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
char*

Default Value: ""

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.

Default Value: 0

The outcome of a certificate chain validation routine.

Available options:

cvtValid0The chain is valid

cvtValidButUntrusted1The chain is valid, but the root certificate is not trusted

cvtInvalid2The chain is not valid (some of certificates are revoked, expired, or contain an invalid signature)

cvtCantBeEstablished3The validity of the chain cannot be established because of missing or unavailable validation information (certificates, CRLs, or OCSP responses)

Use the ValidationLog property to access the detailed validation log.

ClaimedSigningTime
char*

Default Value: ""

The signing time from the signer's computer.

Use this property to provide the signature production time. The claimed time is not supported by a trusted source; it may be inaccurate, forfeited, or wrong, and as such is usually taken for informational purposes only by verifiers. Use timestamp servers to embed verifiable trusted timestamps. The time is in UTC.

CompatibilityErrors
int (read-only)

Default Value: 0

Returns compatibility errors encountered during validation.

Use this property to get specific compatibility errors encountered during validation. Unlike chain validation details, compatibility errors indicate violations by the signature of the assumed signature level/profile. For example, BES signatures are required to contain the signing time attribute. A prospective BES signature without such attribute will invoke a compatibility error.

ContainsLongTermInfo
int (read-only)

Default Value: FALSE

TBD

ContentType
char*

Default Value: ""

Specifies payload content type.

Use this property to indicate the content type of the JWS Payload.

This property provides a way for the application to disambiguate among different kinds of objects that might be present in the payload, but it is typically not used when the kind of object is already known. The value of this property is a string that conforms to the Internet Media Type (MIME) format, such as "text/plain" or "application/json".

It is optional to use this property and it is recommended to omit the "application/" prefix of the media type value when it is not needed. The recipient of the signed message should treat the value as if "application/" were prepended to it, unless it already contains a '/'.

Countersigned
int (read-only)

Default Value: FALSE

Indicates if the signature is countersigned.

Use this property to find out whether the JWS/JAdES signature contains any countersignatures over the main signature(s).

EntityLabel
char* (read-only)

Default Value: ""

Use this property to get the signature label.

TBD

Handle
int64

Default Value: 0

Allows to get or set a 'handle', a unique identifier of the underlying property object. Use this property to assign objects of the same type in a quicker manner, without copying them fieldwise.

When you pass a handle of one object to another, the source object is copied to the destination rather than assigned. It is safe to get rid of the original object after such operation. pdfSigner.setSigningCertHandle(certMgr.getCertHandle());

HashAlgorithm

The supported values are:

javUnknown0Unknown

jav1111JAdES v1.1.1

LastArchivalTime
char* (read-only)

Default Value: ""

Indicates the most recent archival time of an archived signature

This property returns the time of the most recent archival timestamp applied to the signature. This property only makes sense for 'archived' (e.g. CAdES-A) signatures. Time is in UTC.

jaslBaselineT2Baseline T (B-T, timestamped)

jaslBaselineLT3Baseline LT (B-LT, long-term)

jaslBaselineLTA4Baseline LTA (B-LTA, long-term with archived timestamp)

ObjectType
char*

Default Value: "jose+json"

Specifies signature object content type.

Use this property to specify the content type of the signature object.

It is used by the application to differentiate between different types of objects that might be present in an application data structure containing a JWS or JAdES.

The default value is "jose+json" which indicates that it is a JWS or JAdES using the JWS JSON Serialization, and "jose" which indicates that the object is a JWS or JAdES using the JWS Compact Serialization. Other type values can also be used by the application.

ParentEntity
char*

Default Value: 0

Enables or disables certificate-based client authentication.

Set this property to true to tune up the client authentication type:

ccatNoAuth0
ccatRequestCert1
ccatRequireCert2

ECCurves
char*

Default Value: ""

Defines the elliptic curves to enable.

Extensions
char*

Default Value: ""

Provides access to TLS extensions.

ForceResumeIfDestinationChanges
int

Default Value: FALSE

Whether to force TLS session resumption when the destination address changes.

PreSharedIdentity
char*

Default Value: ""

Defines the identity used when the PSK (Pre-Shared Key) key-exchange mechanism is negotiated.

PreSharedKey
char*

Default Value: ""

Contains the pre-shared key for the PSK (Pre-Shared Key) key-exchange mechanism, encoded with base16.

PreSharedKeyCiphersuite
char*

Default Value: ""

Defines the ciphersuite used for PSK (Pre-Shared Key) negotiation.

RenegotiationAttackPreventionMode
int

Default Value: 2

Selects the renegotiation attack prevention mechanism.

The following options are available:

crapmCompatible0TLS 1.0 and 1.1 compatibility mode (renegotiation indication extension is disabled).
crapmStrict1Renegotiation attack prevention is enabled and enforced.
crapmAuto2Automatically choose whether to enable or disable renegotiation attack prevention.

RevocationCheck
int

Default Value: 1

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.

crcNone0No revocation checking
crcAuto1Automatic mode selection. Currently this maps to crcAnyOCSPOrCRL, but it may change in the future.
crcAllCRL2Check all provided CRL endpoints for all chain certificates.
crcAllOCSP3Check all provided OCSP endpoints for all chain certificates.
crcAllCRLAndOCSP4Check all CRL and OCSP endpoints for all chain certificates.
crcAnyCRL5At least one CRL check for every certificate in the chain must succeed.
crcAnyOCSP6At least one OCSP check for every certificate in the chain must succeed.
crcAnyCRLOrOCSP7At least one CRL or OCSP check for every certificate in the chain must succeed. CRL endpoints are checked first.
crcAnyOCSPOrCRL8At least one CRL or OCSP check for every certificate in the chain must succeed. OCSP endpoints are checked first.

This setting controls the way the revocation checks are performed. 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.

SecureBlackboxList Type

Syntax

SecureBlackboxList<T> (declared in secureblackbox.h)

Remarks

SecureBlackboxList is a generic class that is used to hold a collection of objects of type T, where T is one of the custom types supported by the JAdESSigner class.

Methods

GetCount This method returns the current size of the collection.

int GetCount() {}

SetCount This method sets the size of the collection. This method returns 0 if setting the size was successful; or -1 if the collection is ReadOnly. When adding additional objects to a collection call this method to specify the new size. Increasing the size of the collection preserves existing objects in the collection.

int SetCount() {}

Get This method gets the item at the specified position. The index parameter specifies the index of the item in the collection. This method returns NULL if an invalid index is specified.

T* Get(int index) {}

Set This method sets the item at the specified position. The index parameter specifies the index of the item in the collection that is being set. This method returns -1 if an invalid index is specified. Note: Objects created using the new operator must be freed using the delete operator; they will not be automatically freed by the class.

T* Set(int index, T* value) {}

Config Settings (JAdESSigner Class)

The class accepts one or more of the following configuration settings. Configuration settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the class, access to these internal properties is provided through the Config method.

JAdESSigner Config Settings

AddSignedDataTimestamp:   Whether to add signed data timestamp during signing.

If this property is set to True, the signed data timestamp will be added.

CertThumbprint:   Specifies the certificate thumbprint.

The certificate thumbprint that was included into the signature.

CertURL:   Specifies the certificate URL.

The certificate URL that was included or to be included into the signature.

The certificate URL is the "x5u" (X.509 URL) Header Parameter that refers to a resource for the X.509 public key certificate or certificate chain corresponding to the key used to digitally sign the JWS or JAdES.

DataBase64:   Specifies whether data is Base64-URL-encoded.

This property controls the "b64" header parameter and it determines the representation of the JWS payload or object data. Its value must be the same for all signatures if there are multiple of them in the JSON.

If the value is set to "true", the JWS payload will be represented as a Base64-URL-encoded string.

If the value is "false", the JWS payload will be represented without any encoding.

The default value of this property is "true".

ForceCompleteChainValidationForTrusted:   Whether to continue with the full validation up to the root CA certificate for mid-level trust anchors.

Set this property to True to enable full chain validation for explicitly trusted intermediary or end-entity certificates. This may be useful when creating signatures to enforce completeness of the collected revocation information. It often makes sense to set this property to false when validating signatures to reduce validation time and avoid issues with badly configured environments.

GracePeriod:   Specifies a grace period to apply during revocation information checks.

Use this property to specify a grace period (in seconds). Grace period applies to certain subprotocols, such as OCSP, and caters to the inaccuracy and/or missynchronization of clocks on different participating systems. Any time deviations within the grace period will be tolerated.

IgnoreOCSPNoCheckExtension:   Whether the OCSP NoCheck extension should be ignored.

Set this property to True to make the validation engine ignore the OCSP no-check extension. You would normally need to set this property when validating severely non-compliant chains that misuse the extension, causing chain loops or other validation issues.

IgnoreSystemTrust:   Whether trusted Windows Certificate Stores should be treated as trusted.

Specifies whether, during chain validation, the class should respect the trust to CA certificates as configured in the operating system. In Windows this effectively defines whether the class should trust the certificates residing in the Trusted Root Certification Authorities store.

If IgnoreSystemTrust is True, certificates residing in the trusted root store are treated as if they are known, rather than trusted. Only certificates provided via other means (such as the TrustedCertificates property) are considered trusted.

IgnoreTimestampFailure:   Whether to ignore time-stamping failure during signing.

If this property is set to True, any failure during time-stamping process will be ignored.

ImplicitlyTrustSelfSignedCertificates:   Whether to trust self-signed certificates.

Set this property to True to implicitly trust all self-signed certificates. Use it with care as trusting just about every self-signed certificate is unwise. One exceptional reason where this property may be handy is where a chain is validated in an environment that is not supposed to trust it (for example, a signing, rather than verifying environment, or a QA server). Trusting all self-signing certificates (which are normally trusted) allows emulating the verifying environment without actually changing its security settings.

IncludeKnownRevocationInfoToSignature:   Whether to include custom revocation info to the signature.

This property specifies whether revocation pieces provided via KnownCertificates, KnownCRLs, and KnownOCSPs properties should be included into the signature. This property lets you include custom validation elements to the signature in addition to the ones comprising the signing chain.

JAdESOptions:   Specifies the JAdES options.

Contains a comma-separated list of values that specifies JAdES options.

Supported values are:

WriteBase64ParamThe parameter controls the inclusion of the "b64" header parameter in the signature. When this flag is set, the "b64" header parameter will always be included in the header. Otherwise, the "b64" header parameter will only be included in the header when it is required.
PreferEtsiUClearInstanceThe parameter determines whether the EtsiU components should be written as clear JSON instances or as Base64-encoded strings. When this flag is set, EtsiU components will be written as clear JSON instances, if possible. Otherwise, the EtsiU components will be Base64url-encoded strings.

KeyId:   Specifies Key ID.

The Key ID that was included or to be included into the signature.

Key ID is a hint indicating which key was used to secure the JWS or JAdES.

PolicyDescription:   signature policy description.

This property specifies the Description of the signature policy.

PolicyExplicitText:   The explicit text of the user notice.

Use this property to specify the explicit text of the user notice to be displayed when the signature is verified.

Defines the "noticeNumbers" part of the NoticeReference signature policy qualifier for CAdES-EPES.

PolicyUNOrganization:   The organization part of the NoticeReference qualifier.

Defines the "organization" part of the NoticeReference signature policy qualifier for CAdES-EPES.

ProductionPlace:   Identifies the place of the signature production.

The signature production place in JSON format that was included or to be included into the signature.

Sample value: '{"addressCountry": "UK", "addressLocality": "London", "postalCode": "N1 7GU", "streetAddress": "20-22 Wenlock Road"}'

PromoteLongOCSPResponses:   Whether long OCSP responses are requested.

Set this property to True to force the class to publish the 'long' form of OCSP responses. Otherwise, only BasicOCSPResponse blobs are promoted.

ProtectedHeader:   Specifies the protected header.

The protected header that was included or to be included into the signature.

SchemeParams:   The algorithm scheme parameters to employ.

Use this property to specify the parameters of the algorithm scheme if needed.

This setting is used to provide parameters for some cryptographic schemes. Use the Name1=Value1;Name2=Value2;... syntax to encode the parameters. For example: Scheme=PSS;SaltSize=32;TrailerField=1.

SignerAttrs:   Identifies the signer attributes.

The signer attributes in JSON format that was included or to be included into the signature.

SignerCommitments:   Identifies the signer commitments.

The signer commitments in JSON format that was included or to be included into the signature.

SigningCertIncludeThumbprint:   Specifies whether to include signing certificate thumbprint.

If this property is set to True, the signing certificate thumbprint will be included into the signature.

SigningCertIncludeValue:   Specifies whether to include signing certificate value.

If this property is set to True, the signing certificate value will be included into the signature.

SigningChainIncludeThumbprints:   Specifies whether to include signing chain thumbprints.

If this property is set to True, the signing chain thumbprints will be included into the signature.

SigningChainIncludeValue:   Specifies whether to include signing chain values.

If this property is set to True, the signing chain values will be included into the signature.

TempPath:   Location where the temporary files are stored.

This setting specifies an absolute path to the location on disk where temporary files are stored.

ThumbprintHashAlgorithm:   Specifies the thumbprint hash algorithm.

The certificate thumbprint hash algorithm that was included or to be included into the signature.

TimestampResponse:   A base16-encoded timestamp response received from a TSA.

When using virtual:// timestamp endpoints, assign this property in your Notification event handler with the TSP response that you receive from the TSA. Remember to encode the response in hex (base16).

ocspOCSP responses

TLSChainValidationDetails:   Contains the advanced details of the TLS server certificate validation.

Check this property in the TLSCertValidate event handler to access the TLS certificate validation details.

TLSChainValidationResult:   Contains the result of the TLS server certificate validation.

Check this property in the TLSCertValidate event handler to obtain the TLS certificate validation result.

TLSClientAuthRequested:   Indicates whether the TLS server requests client authentication.

Check this property in the TLSCertValidate event handler to find out whether the TLS server requests the client to provide the authentication certificate. If this property is set to true, provide your certificate via the TLSClientChain property. Note that the class may fire this event more than once during each operation, as more than one TLS-enabled server may need to be contacted.

TLSValidationLog:   Contains the log of the TLS server certificate validation.

Check this property in the TLSCertValidate event handler to retrieve the validation log of the TLS server.

TolerateMinorChainIssues:   Whether to tolerate minor chain issues.

This parameter controls whether the chain validator should tolerate minor technical issues when validating the chain. Those are:

  • CA, revocation source, TLS key usage requirements are not mandated
  • Violation of OCSP issuer requirements are ignored
  • The AuthorityKeyID extension in CRL- and certificate-issuing CAs are ignored (helps with incorrectly renewed certificates)
  • Basic constraints and name constraints of CA certificates are ignored
  • Some weaker algorithms are tolerated
TspAttemptCount:   Specifies the number of timestamping request attempts.

Use this property to specify a number of timestamping request attempts.

In case of a timestamping failure, provide new TSA and HTTP settings inside the Notification event handler ('BeforeTimestamp' and 'TimestampError' event IDs).

TspHashAlgorithm:   Sets a specific hash algorithm for use with the timestamping service.

In default configuration class uses the 'SHA256' hash algorithm. Use this property to specify a different hash algorithm for the timestamp.

TspReqPolicy:   Sets a request policy ID to include in the timestamping request.

Use this property to provide a specific request policy OID to include in the timestamping request. Use the standard human-readable OID notation (1.2.3.4.5).

UnprotectedHeader:   Specifies the unprotected header.

The unprotected header that was included or to be included into the signature.

UseMicrosoftCTL:   Enables or disables the automatic use of the Microsoft online certificate trust list.

Enable this property to make the chain validation module automatically look up missing CA certificates in the public Windows Update repository.

UsePSS:   Whether to use RSASSA-PSS algorithm.

Although the RSASSA-PSS algorithm provides better security than a classic RSA scheme (PKCS#1-1.5), please take into account that RSASSA-PSS is a relatively new algorithm which may not be understood by older implementations.

UseSystemCertificates:   Enables or disables the use of the system certificates.

Use this property to tell the chain validation module to automatically look up missing CA certificates in the system certificates. In many cases it is beneficial to switch this property on, as the operating system certificate configuration provides a representative trust framework.

ValidationDataRefsDetails:   Specifies validation data references details to include to the signature.

Contains a comma-separated list of values that specifies which validation data references details to include to the "xRefs", "rRefs", "axRefs" and "arRefs" JSON objects/arrays.

Supported values are:

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.

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

noneNo rotation
deleteolderDelete older entries from the cache upon reaching LogMaxEventCount
keepolderKeep 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.

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.

TLSSessionGroup:   Specifies the group name of TLS sessions to be used for session resumption.

Use this property to limit the search of chached TLS sessions to the specified group. Sessions from other groups will be ignored. By default, all sessions are cached with an empty group name and available to all the classes.

TLSSessionLifetime:   Specifies lifetime in seconds of the cached TLS session.

Use this property to specify how much time the TLS session should be kept in the session cache. After this time, the session expires and will be automatically removed from the cache. Default value is 300 seconds (5 minutes).

Use this property to specify the time interval of purging the expired TLS sessions from the session cache. Default value is 60 seconds (1 minute).

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.

Trappable Errors (JAdESSigner Class)

Error Handling (C++)

Call the GetLastErrorCode() method to obtain the last called method's result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution.
