MessageTimestamper Class

Properties Methods Events Config Settings Errors

The MessageTimestamper class timestamps data and stores it in the PKCS#7 format.

Syntax

MessageTimestamper

Remarks

PKCS#7 (Public Key Cryptography Standard #7) is a common format used to store encrypted and signed data. It is used by a variety of protocols, including S/MIME and CMS.

MessageTimestamper can timestamp binary data. The following output formats are supported: PKCS#7 TimestampedData, PKCS#7 TimestampToken (CMS), and PKCS#7 TSPReply (RFC3161).

The two principal properties that you need to set up are the TimestampServer, which should contain the address of the RFC3161-compliant TSA service, and the TimestampFormat, which should be set to the desired timestamp format.

Provide the input and output destinations via the InputFile and OutputFile properties. Depending on the TSA setup, you may also need to adjust the TLS properties (for example, provide a client certificate via the TLSClientChain collection).

Having set up the component, call the Timestamp method. MessageTimestamper will prepare the timestamp message and request the TSA service to timestamp it.

Note that MessageTimestamper creates standalone timestamps over binary messages. If you would rather timestamp an existing CMS signature, see MessageSigner or CAdESSigner components instead. MessageTimestamper timestamper = new MessageTimestamper(); timestamper.setTimestampFormat(Messagetimestamper.mtfRFC5544); //Configures the desired timestamp format. // Select the file which contains the message that will be timestamped timestamper.setInputFile("message.txt"); // Select the file where the timestamped message will be written timestamper.setOutputFile("timestampedMessage.bin"); // Specify the timestamping server timestamper.setTimestampServer("http://..."); timestamper.timestamp(); // Timestamp

TimestampServer Property (MessageTimestamper Class)

The address of the timestamping server.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
char* GetTimestampServer();
int SetTimestampServer(const char* lpszTimestampServer);

Unicode (Windows)
LPWSTR GetTimestampServer();
INT SetTimestampServer(LPCWSTR lpszTimestampServer);

char* secureblackbox_messagetimestamper_gettimestampserver(void* lpObj);
int secureblackbox_messagetimestamper_settimestampserver(void* lpObj, const char* lpszTimestampServer);

QString GetTimestampServer();
int SetTimestampServer(QString qsTimestampServer);

Default Value

Remarks

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

All the parameters are optional.

Data Type

String

Data Type

SecureBlackboxTLSSettings

Config Method (MessageTimestamper Class)

Sets or retrieves a configuration setting.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
char* Config(const char* lpszConfigurationString);

Unicode (Windows)
LPWSTR Config(LPCWSTR lpszConfigurationString);

char* secureblackbox_messagetimestamper_config(void* lpObj, const char* lpszConfigurationString);

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++)

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.

DoAction Method (MessageTimestamper Class)

Performs an additional action.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
char* DoAction(const char* lpszActionID, const char* lpszActionParams);

Unicode (Windows)
LPWSTR DoAction(LPCWSTR lpszActionID, LPCWSTR lpszActionParams);

char* secureblackbox_messagetimestamper_doaction(void* lpObj, const char* lpszActionID, const char* lpszActionParams);

QString DoAction(const QString& qsActionID, const QString& qsActionParams);

Remarks

DoAction is a generic method available in every class. It is used to perform an additional action introduced after the product major release. The list of actions is not fixed, and may be flexibly extended over time.

The unique identifier (case insensitive) of the action is provided in the ActionID parameter.

ActionParams contains the value of a single parameter, or a list of multiple parameters for the action in the form of PARAM1=VALUE1;PARAM2=VALUE2;....

Common ActionIDs:


Action	Parameters	Returned value	Description
ResetTrustedListCache	none	none	Clears the cached list of trusted lists.
ResetCertificateCache	none	none	Clears the cached certificates.
ResetCRLCache	none	none	Clears the cached CRLs.
ResetOCSPResponseCache	none	none	Clears the cached OCSP responses.

Error Handling (C++)

Reset Method (MessageTimestamper Class)

Resets the class settings.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
int Reset();

Unicode (Windows)
INT Reset();

int secureblackbox_messagetimestamper_reset(void* lpObj);

int Reset();

Remarks

Reset is a generic method available in every class.

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.)

Timestamp Method (MessageTimestamper Class)

Timestamps the data.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
int Timestamp();

Unicode (Windows)
INT Timestamp();

int secureblackbox_messagetimestamper_timestamp(void* lpObj);

int Timestamp();

Remarks

Call this method to timestamp the content provided in InputFile (or InputStream) with a trusted timestamp from TimestampServer.

Error Handling (C++)

Error Event (MessageTimestamper Class)

Information about errors during PKCS#7 message encryption.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
virtual int FireError(MessageTimestamperErrorEventParams *e);

typedef struct {
  int ErrorCode;
  const char *Description;
  int reserved;
} MessageTimestamperErrorEventParams;


Unicode (Windows)
virtual INT FireError(MessageTimestamperErrorEventParams *e);

typedef struct {
  INT ErrorCode;
  LPCWSTR Description;
  INT reserved;
} MessageTimestamperErrorEventParams;

#define EID_MESSAGETIMESTAMPER_ERROR 1

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

class MessageTimestamperErrorEventParams {
public:
  int ErrorCode();

  const QString &Description();

  int EventRetVal();
  void SetEventRetVal(int iRetVal);
};

// To handle, connect one or more slots to this signal.
void Error(MessageTimestamperErrorEventParams *e);

// Or, subclass MessageTimestamper and override this emitter function.
virtual int FireError(MessageTimestamperErrorEventParams *e) {...}

Remarks

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

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

Notification Event (MessageTimestamper Class)

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

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
virtual int FireNotification(MessageTimestamperNotificationEventParams *e);

typedef struct {
  const char *EventID;
  const char *EventParam;
  int reserved;
} MessageTimestamperNotificationEventParams;


Unicode (Windows)
virtual INT FireNotification(MessageTimestamperNotificationEventParams *e);

typedef struct {
  LPCWSTR EventID;
  LPCWSTR EventParam;
  INT reserved;
} MessageTimestamperNotificationEventParams;

#define EID_MESSAGETIMESTAMPER_NOTIFICATION 2

virtual INT SECUREBLACKBOX_CALL FireNotification(LPSTR &lpszEventID, LPSTR &lpszEventParam);

class MessageTimestamperNotificationEventParams {
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(MessageTimestamperNotificationEventParams *e);

// Or, subclass MessageTimestamper and override this emitter function.
virtual int FireNotification(MessageTimestamperNotificationEventParams *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:


BeforeTimestamp	This event is fired before a timestamp is requested from the timestamping authority. Use the event handler to modify TSA and HTTP settings.
TimestampError	This event is only fired if the class failed to obtain a timestamp from the timestamping authority. The EventParam parameter contains extended error info.
TimestampRequest	A 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.

TimestampRequest Event (MessageTimestamper Class)

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

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
virtual int FireTimestampRequest(MessageTimestamperTimestampRequestEventParams *e);

typedef struct {
  const char *TSA;
  const char *TimestampRequest;
  char *TimestampResponse;
  int SuppressDefault;
  int reserved;
} MessageTimestamperTimestampRequestEventParams;


Unicode (Windows)
virtual INT FireTimestampRequest(MessageTimestamperTimestampRequestEventParams *e);

typedef struct {
  LPCWSTR TSA;
  LPCWSTR TimestampRequest;
  LPWSTR TimestampResponse;
  BOOL SuppressDefault;
  INT reserved;
} MessageTimestamperTimestampRequestEventParams;

#define EID_MESSAGETIMESTAMPER_TIMESTAMPREQUEST 3

virtual INT SECUREBLACKBOX_CALL FireTimestampRequest(LPSTR &lpszTSA, LPSTR &lpszTimestampRequest, LPSTR &lpszTimestampResponse, BOOL &bSuppressDefault);

class MessageTimestamperTimestampRequestEventParams {
public:
  const QString &TSA();

  const QString &TimestampRequest();

  const QString &TimestampResponse();
  void SetTimestampResponse(const QString &qsTimestampResponse);

  bool SuppressDefault();
  void SetSuppressDefault(bool bSuppressDefault);

  int EventRetVal();
  void SetEventRetVal(int iRetVal);
};

// To handle, connect one or more slots to this signal.
void TimestampRequest(MessageTimestamperTimestampRequestEventParams *e);

// Or, subclass MessageTimestamper and override this emitter function.
virtual int FireTimestampRequest(MessageTimestamperTimestampRequestEventParams *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.

TLSCertNeeded Event (MessageTimestamper Class)

Fires when a remote TLS party requests a client certificate.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
virtual int FireTLSCertNeeded(MessageTimestamperTLSCertNeededEventParams *e);

typedef struct {
  const char *Host;
  const char *CANames;
  int reserved;
} MessageTimestamperTLSCertNeededEventParams;


Unicode (Windows)
virtual INT FireTLSCertNeeded(MessageTimestamperTLSCertNeededEventParams *e);

typedef struct {
  LPCWSTR Host;
  LPCWSTR CANames;
  INT reserved;
} MessageTimestamperTLSCertNeededEventParams;

#define EID_MESSAGETIMESTAMPER_TLSCERTNEEDED 4

virtual INT SECUREBLACKBOX_CALL FireTLSCertNeeded(LPSTR &lpszHost, LPSTR &lpszCANames);

class MessageTimestamperTLSCertNeededEventParams {
public:
  const QString &Host();

  const QString &CANames();

  int EventRetVal();
  void SetEventRetVal(int iRetVal);
};

// To handle, connect one or more slots to this signal.
void TLSCertNeeded(MessageTimestamperTLSCertNeededEventParams *e);

// Or, subclass MessageTimestamper and override this emitter function.
virtual int FireTLSCertNeeded(MessageTimestamperTLSCertNeededEventParams *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 (MessageTimestamper 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(MessageTimestamperTLSCertValidateEventParams *e);

typedef struct {
  const char *ServerHost;
  const char *ServerIP;
  int Accept;
  int reserved;
} MessageTimestamperTLSCertValidateEventParams;


Unicode (Windows)
virtual INT FireTLSCertValidate(MessageTimestamperTLSCertValidateEventParams *e);

typedef struct {
  LPCWSTR ServerHost;
  LPCWSTR ServerIP;
  BOOL Accept;
  INT reserved;
} MessageTimestamperTLSCertValidateEventParams;

#define EID_MESSAGETIMESTAMPER_TLSCERTVALIDATE 5

virtual INT SECUREBLACKBOX_CALL FireTLSCertValidate(LPSTR &lpszServerHost, LPSTR &lpszServerIP, BOOL &bAccept);

class MessageTimestamperTLSCertValidateEventParams {
public:
  const QString &ServerHost();

  const QString &ServerIP();

  bool Accept();
  void SetAccept(bool bAccept);

  int EventRetVal();
  void SetEventRetVal(int iRetVal);
};

// To handle, connect one or more slots to this signal.
void TLSCertValidate(MessageTimestamperTLSCertValidateEventParams *e);

// Or, subclass MessageTimestamper and override this emitter function.
virtual int FireTLSCertValidate(MessageTimestamperTLSCertValidateEventParams *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 (MessageTimestamper Class)

Fires when a TLS handshake with Host successfully completes.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
virtual int FireTLSEstablished(MessageTimestamperTLSEstablishedEventParams *e);

typedef struct {
  const char *Host;
  const char *Version;
  const char *Ciphersuite;
  const char *ConnectionId;
  int lenConnectionId;
  int Abort;
  int reserved;
} MessageTimestamperTLSEstablishedEventParams;


Unicode (Windows)
virtual INT FireTLSEstablished(MessageTimestamperTLSEstablishedEventParams *e);

typedef struct {
  LPCWSTR Host;
  LPCWSTR Version;
  LPCWSTR Ciphersuite;
  LPCSTR ConnectionId;
  INT lenConnectionId;
  BOOL Abort;
  INT reserved;
} MessageTimestamperTLSEstablishedEventParams;

#define EID_MESSAGETIMESTAMPER_TLSESTABLISHED 6

virtual INT SECUREBLACKBOX_CALL FireTLSEstablished(LPSTR &lpszHost, LPSTR &lpszVersion, LPSTR &lpszCiphersuite, LPSTR &lpConnectionId, INT &lenConnectionId, BOOL &bAbort);

class MessageTimestamperTLSEstablishedEventParams {
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(MessageTimestamperTLSEstablishedEventParams *e);

// Or, subclass MessageTimestamper and override this emitter function.
virtual int FireTLSEstablished(MessageTimestamperTLSEstablishedEventParams *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 (MessageTimestamper Class)

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

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
virtual int FireTLSHandshake(MessageTimestamperTLSHandshakeEventParams *e);

typedef struct {
  const char *Host;
  int Abort;
  int reserved;
} MessageTimestamperTLSHandshakeEventParams;


Unicode (Windows)
virtual INT FireTLSHandshake(MessageTimestamperTLSHandshakeEventParams *e);

typedef struct {
  LPCWSTR Host;
  BOOL Abort;
  INT reserved;
} MessageTimestamperTLSHandshakeEventParams;

#define EID_MESSAGETIMESTAMPER_TLSHANDSHAKE 7

virtual INT SECUREBLACKBOX_CALL FireTLSHandshake(LPSTR &lpszHost, BOOL &bAbort);

class MessageTimestamperTLSHandshakeEventParams {
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(MessageTimestamperTLSHandshakeEventParams *e);

// Or, subclass MessageTimestamper and override this emitter function.
virtual int FireTLSHandshake(MessageTimestamperTLSHandshakeEventParams *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 (MessageTimestamper Class)

Reports the graceful closure of a TLS connection.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
virtual int FireTLSShutdown(MessageTimestamperTLSShutdownEventParams *e);

typedef struct {
  const char *Host;
  int reserved;
} MessageTimestamperTLSShutdownEventParams;


Unicode (Windows)
virtual INT FireTLSShutdown(MessageTimestamperTLSShutdownEventParams *e);

typedef struct {
  LPCWSTR Host;
  INT reserved;
} MessageTimestamperTLSShutdownEventParams;

#define EID_MESSAGETIMESTAMPER_TLSSHUTDOWN 8

virtual INT SECUREBLACKBOX_CALL FireTLSShutdown(LPSTR &lpszHost);

class MessageTimestamperTLSShutdownEventParams {
public:
  const QString &Host();

  int EventRetVal();
  void SetEventRetVal(int iRetVal);
};

// To handle, connect one or more slots to this signal.
void TLSShutdown(MessageTimestamperTLSShutdownEventParams *e);

// Or, subclass MessageTimestamper and override this emitter function.
virtual int FireTLSShutdown(MessageTimestamperTLSShutdownEventParams *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.

The following fields are available:

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

IssuerRDN
char*
Default Value: ""

A list of Property=Value pairs that uniquely identify the certificate issuer.

Example: /C=US/O=Nationwide CA/CN=Web Certification Authority

Use the KeyBits, Curve, and PublicKeyBytes fields 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 PublicKeyBytes or PrivateKeyBytes field 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 Fingerprint field. 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:


ckuUnknown	`0x00000`	Unknown key usage
ckuDigitalSignature	`0x00001`	Digital signature
ckuNonRepudiation	`0x00002`	Non-repudiation
ckuKeyEncipherment	`0x00004`	Key encipherment
ckuDataEncipherment	`0x00008`	Data encipherment
ckuKeyAgreement	`0x00010`	Key agreement
ckuKeyCertSign	`0x00020`	Certificate signing
ckuCRLSign	`0x00040`	Revocation signing
ckuEncipherOnly	`0x00080`	Encipher only
ckuDecipherOnly	`0x00100`	Decipher only
ckuServerAuthentication	`0x00200`	Server authentication
ckuClientAuthentication	`0x00400`	Client authentication
ckuCodeSigning	`0x00800`	Code signing
ckuEmailProtection	`0x01000`	Email protection
ckuTimeStamping	`0x02000`	Timestamping
ckuOCSPSigning	`0x04000`	OCSP signing
ckuSmartCardLogon	`0x08000`	Smartcard logon
ckuKeyPurposeClientAuth	`0x10000`	Kerberos - client authentication
ckuKeyPurposeKDC	`0x20000`	Kerberos - KDC

Set this field 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 field 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 field 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 field 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 field is independent from PrivateKeyBytes, 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 SubjectRDN.

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 SubjectRDN 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 SubjectKeyID and CAKeyID fields 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.

Ciphersuites
char*
Default Value: ""

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

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

ClientAuth
int
Default Value: 0

Enables or disables certificate-based client authentication.

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


ccatNoAuth	`0`
ccatRequestCert	`1`
ccatRequireCert	`2`

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:


crapmCompatible	`0`	TLS 1.0 and 1.1 compatibility mode (renegotiation indication extension is disabled).
crapmStrict	`1`	Renegotiation attack prevention is enabled and enforced.
crapmAuto	`2`	Automatically 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.


crcNone	`0`	No revocation checking.
crcAuto	`1`	Automatic mode selection. Currently this maps to crcAnyOCSPOrCRL, but it may change in the future.
crcAllCRL	`2`	All provided CRL endpoints will be checked, and all checks must succeed.
crcAllOCSP	`3`	All provided OCSP endpoints will be checked, and all checks must succeed.
crcAllCRLAndOCSP	`4`	All provided CRL and OCSP endpoints will be checked, and all checks must succeed.
crcAnyCRL	`5`	All provided CRL endpoints will be checked, and at least one check must succeed.
crcAnyOCSP	`6`	All provided OCSP endpoints will be checked, and at least one check must succeed.
crcAnyCRLOrOCSP	`7`	All provided CRL and OCSP endpoints will be checked, and at least one check must succeed. CRL endpoints are checked first.
crcAnyOCSPOrCRL	`8`	All provided CRL and OCSP endpoints will be checked, and at least one check must succeed. OCSP endpoints are checked first.

This setting controls the way the revocation checks are performed for every certificate in the chain. Typically certificates come with two types of revocation information sources: CRL (certificate revocation lists) and OCSP responders. CRLs are static objects periodically published by the CA at some online location. OCSP responders are active online services maintained by the CA that can provide up-to-date information on certificate statuses in near real time.

There are some conceptual differences between the two. CRLs are normally larger in size. Their use involves some latency because there is normally some delay between the time when a certificate was revoked and the time the subsequent CRL mentioning that is published. The benefits of CRL is that the same object can provide statuses for all certificates issued by a particular CA, and that the whole technology is much simpler than OCSP (and thus is supported by more CAs).

This setting lets you adjust the validation course by including or excluding certain types of revocation sources from the validation process. The crcAnyOCSPOrCRL setting (give preference to the faster OCSP route and only demand one source to succeed) is a good choice for most typical validation environments. The "crcAll*" modes are much stricter, and may be used in scenarios where bulletproof validity information is essential.

Note: If no CRL or OCSP endpoints are provided by the CA, the revocation check will be considered successful. This is because the CA chose not to supply revocation information for its certificates, meaning they are considered irrevocable.

Note: Within each of the above settings, if any retrieved CRL or OCSP response indicates that the certificate has been revoked, the revocation check fails.

Constructors

TLSSettings()

Creates a new TLSSettings object.

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 MessageTimestamper 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(int count) {}
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 (MessageTimestamper 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.

MessageTimestamper Config Settings

MediaType: Media type.

The media type.

ProtectMetadata: Protect metadata.

Set to true to include the metadata to the timestamp coverage.

TempPath: Path for storing temporary files.

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

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).

TimestampType: TBD.

TBD

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.

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.

Note: Unlike other classs, PDFSigner class uses the same hash algorithm for the main signature and any associated timestamps during signing. 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).

UseUndefSize: Allows or forbids the use of ASN.1 tags of undefined size.

Usually PKCS#7 messages are handled correctly when undefined-size tags are used. However some ASN.1 parsers (S/MIME handler in Outlook Express, security plugins of Adobe Acrobat) can't correctly handle such tags. If you are targeting such software, you need this property.

Base Config Settings

ASN1UseGlobalTagCache: Controls whether ASN.1 module should use a global object cache.

This is a performance setting. It is unlikely that you will ever need to adjust it.

AssignSystemSmartCardPins: Specifies whether CSP-level PINs should be assigned to CNG keys.

This is a low-level tweak for certain cryptographic providers. It is unlikely that you will ever need to adjust it.

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

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

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

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

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

Supported values are:


off		No caching (default)
local		Local caching
global		Global caching

Cookies: Gets or sets local cookies for the class.

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

DefDeriveKeyIterations: Specifies the default key derivation algorithm iteration count.

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

DNSLocalSuffix: The suffix to assign for TLD names.

Use this global setting to adjust the default suffix to assign to top-level domain names. The default is .local.

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

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

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

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

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

HardwareCryptoUsePolicy: The hardware crypto usage policy.

This global setting controls the hardware cryptography usage policy: auto, enable, or disable.

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

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

HttpVersion: The HTTP version to use in any inner HTTP client components created.

Set this property to 1.0 or 1.1 to indicate the HTTP version that any internal HTTP clients should use.

IgnoreExpiredMSCTLSigningCert: Whether to tolerate the expired Windows Update signing certificate.

It is not uncommon for Microsoft Windows Update Certificate Trust List to be signed with an expired Microsoft certificate. Setting this global property to true makes SBB ignore the expired factor and take the Trust List into account.

ListDelimiter: The delimiter character for multi-element lists.

Allows to set the delimiter for any multi-entry values returned by the component as a string object, such as file lists. For most of the components, this property is set to a newline sequence.

LogDestination: Specifies the debug log destination.

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

Supported values are:


file		File
console		Console
systemlog		System Log (supported for Android only)
debugger		Debugger (supported for VCL for Windows and .Net)

LogDetails: Specifies the debug log details to dump.

Contains a comma-separated list of values that specifies which debug log details to dump.

Supported values are:


time		Current time
level		Level
package		Package name
module		Module name
class		Class name
method		Method name
threadid		Thread Id
contenttype		Content type
content		Content
all		All details

LogFile: Specifies the debug log filename.

Use this property to provide a path to the log file.

LogFilters: Specifies the debug log filters.

Contains a comma-separated list of value pairs ("name:value") that describe filters.

Supported filter names are:


exclude-package		Exclude a package specified in the value
exclude-module		Exclude a module specified in the value

LogFlushMode: Specifies the log flush mode.

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


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

LogLevel: Specifies the debug log level.

Use this property to provide the desired debug log level.

Supported values are:


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

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

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

The default value of this setting is 100.

LogRotationMode: Specifies the log rotation mode.

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


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

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

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

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

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

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

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

OldClientSideRSAFallback: Specifies whether the SSH client should use a SHA1 fallback.

Tells the SSH client to use a legacy ssh-rsa authentication even if the server indicates support for newer algorithms, such as rsa-sha-256. This is a backward-compatibility tweak.

PKICache: Specifies which PKI elements (certificates, CRLs, OCSP responses) should be cached.

The PKICache setting specifies which Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) elements should be cached to optimize performance and reduce retrieval times. It supports comma-separated values to indicate the specific types of PKI data that should be cached.

Supported Values:


certificate	Enables caching of certificates.
crl	Enables caching of Certificate Revocation Lists (CRLs).
ocsp	Enables caching of OCSP (Online Certificate Status Protocol) responses.

Example (default value): PKICache=certificate,crl,ocsp In this example, the component caches certificates, CRLs, and OCSP responses.

PKICachePath: Specifies the file system path where cached PKI data is stored.

The PKICachePath setting defines the file system path where cached PKI data (e.g., certificates, CRLs, OCSP responses and Trusted Lists) will be stored. This allows the system to persistently save and retrieve PKI cache data, even across application restarts.

The default value is an empty string - no cached PKI data is stored on disk.

Example: PKICachePath=C:\Temp\cache In this example, the cached PKI data is stored in the C:\Temp\cache directory.

ProductVersion: Returns the version of the SecureBlackbox library.

This property returns the long version string of the SecureBlackbox library being used (major.minor.build.revision).

ServerSSLDHKeyLength: Sets the size of the TLS DHE key exchange group.

Use this property to adjust the length, in bits, of the DHE prime to be used by the TLS server.

StaticDNS: Specifies whether static DNS rules should be used.

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

Supported values are:


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

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

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

StaticIPAddresses: Gets or sets all the static DNS rules.

Use this property to get static DNS rules from the current rules storage or restore them back between application sessions. If StaticDNS of the class is set to "local", the property returns/restores the rules from/to the internal storage of the class. If StaticDNS of the class is set to "global", the property returns/restores the rules from/to the GLOBAL storage. The rules list is returned and accepted in JSON format.

Tag: Allows to store any custom data.

Use this config property to store any custom data.

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).

TLSSessionPurgeInterval: Specifies how often the session cache should remove the expired TLS sessions.

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).

UseCRLObjectCaching: Specifies whether reuse of loaded CRL objects is enabled.

This setting enables or disables the caching of CRL objects. When set to true (the default value), the system checks if a CRL object is already loaded in memory before attempting to load a new instance. If the object is found, the existing instance is reused, and its reference count is incremented to track its usage. When the reference count reaches zero, indicating that no references to the object remain, the system will free the object from memory. This setting enhances performance by minimizing unnecessary object instantiation and promotes efficient memory management, particularly in scenarios where CRL objects are frequently used.

UseInternalRandom: Switches between SecureBlackbox-own and platform PRNGs.

Allows to switch between internal/native PRNG implementation and the one provided by the platform.

UseLegacyAdESValidation: Enables legacy AdES validation mode.

Use this setting to switch the AdES component to the validation approach that was used in SBB 2020/SBB 2022 (less attention to temporal details).

UseOCSPResponseObjectCaching: Specifies whether reuse of loaded OCSP response objects is enabled.

This setting enables or disables the caching of OCSP response objects. When set to true (the default value), the system checks if a OCSP response object is already loaded in memory before attempting to load a new instance. If the object is found, the existing instance is reused, and its reference count is incremented to track its usage. When the reference count reaches zero, indicating that no references to the object remain, the system will free the object from memory. This setting enhances performance by minimizing unnecessary object instantiation and promotes efficient memory management, particularly in scenarios where OCSP response objects are frequently used.

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.

UseSystemNativeSizeCalculation: An internal CryptoAPI access tweak.

This is an internal setting. Please do not use it unless instructed by the support team.

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.

XMLRDNDescriptorName[OID]: Defines an OID mapping to descriptor names for the certificate's IssuerRDN or SubjectRDN.

This property defines custom mappings between Object Identifiers (OIDs) and descriptor names. This mapping specifies how the certificate's issuer and subject information (ds:IssuerRDN and ds:SubjectRDN elements respectively) are represented in XML signatures.

The property accepts comma-separated values where the first descriptor name is used when the OID is mapped, and subsequent values act as aliases for parsing.

Syntax: Config("XMLRDNDescriptorName[OID]=PrimaryName,Alias1,Alias2");

Where:

OID: The Object Identifier from the certificate's IssuerRDN or SubjectRDN that you want to map.

PrimaryName: The main descriptor name used in the XML signature when the OID is encountered.

Alias1, Alias2, ...: Optional alternative names recognized during parsing.

Usage Examples:

Map OID 2.5.4.5 to SERIALNUMBER: Config("XMLRDNDescriptorName[2.5.4.5]=SERIALNUMBER");

Map OID 1.2.840.113549.1.9.1 to E, with aliases EMAIL and EMAILADDRESS: Config("XMLRDNDescriptorName[1.2.840.113549.1.9.1]=E,EMAIL,EMAILADDRESS");

XMLRDNDescriptorPriority[OID]: Specifies the priority of descriptor names associated with a specific OID.

This property specifies the priority of descriptor names associated with a specific OID that allows to reorder descriptors in the ds:IssuerRDN and ds:SubjectRDN elements during signing.

XMLRDNDescriptorReverseOrder: Specifies whether to reverse the order of descriptors in RDN.

Specifies whether to reverse the order of descriptors in the ds:IssuerRDN and ds:SubjectRDN elements during XML signing. By default, this property is set to true (as specified in RFC 2253, 2.1).

XMLRDNDescriptorSeparator: Specifies the separator used between descriptors in RDN.

Specifies the separator used between descriptors in the ds:IssuerRDN and ds:SubjectRDN elements during XML signing. By default, this property is set to ", " value.
