XMLVerifier Module

Properties   Methods   Events   Config Settings   Errors  

The XMLVerifier module provides simplified XML signature validation capabilities.

Syntax

SecureBlackbox.XMLVerifier

Remarks

Use this control to validate XML-SIG signatures. XMLVerifier is capable of validating the integrity of the references covered by the signature and the integrity of the signature itself, using the certificate contained in the signature or provided from the user' code.

Note that this component only validates the cryptographic aspects of the signatures, but does not perform any chain of trust validation. As such, it is the task of your code to ensure that the signing certificate is good for its purpose and is trusted in your environment.

If you are looking to validate certificate trust in addition to the cryptographic capabilities, please consider using XAdESVerifier. XAdESVerifier provides full support for advanced signature ecosystem, including revocation and Trusted List checking, timing checks, and chain of trust validation.

Unsign Method (XMLVerifier Module)

Deletes a signature from the document.

Syntax

public func unsign(sigLabel: String) throws -> Void
- (void)unsign:(NSString*)sigLabel;

Remarks

Use this method to delete an existing signature from the document. Use SigLabel parameter to specify the signature to be removed.

Verify Method (XMLVerifier Module)

Verifies a signed XML document.

Syntax

public func verify() throws -> Void
- (void)verify;

Remarks

Call this method to verify the signature embedded in the document. Pass the document via InputStream or InputFile property. Use VerifyDetached to verify the external data in case of a detached signature.

VerifyDetached Method (XMLVerifier Module)

Verifies a detached signature over external XML data.

Syntax

public func verifyDetached() throws -> Void
- (void)verifyDetached;

Remarks

Call this method to verify a signature over external (detached) data provided via DataStream or DataFile.

DocumentLoaded Event (XMLVerifier Module)

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

Syntax

func onDocumentLoaded(cancel: inout Bool)
- (void)onDocumentLoaded:(int*)cancel;

Remarks

The handler for this event is a good place to check document properties, which may be useful when preparing the signature, for example, the document format.

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

Error Event (XMLVerifier Module)

Information about errors during signature verification.

Syntax

func onError(errorCode: Int32, description: String)
- (void)onError:(int)errorCode :(NSString*)description;

Remarks

The event is fired in case of exceptional conditions during verification.

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 XML.

Notification Event (XMLVerifier Module)

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

Syntax

func onNotification(eventID: String, eventParam: String)
- (void)onNotification:(NSString*)eventID :(NSString*)eventParam;

Remarks

The class fires this event to let the application know about some event, occurrence, or milestone in the 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:

DocumentLoadedNotifies the application that the document has been loaded. This is a backward-compatibility-only notification. Use OnDocumentLoaded event instead.
SignaturesLoadedNotifies the application that the component has finished loading signatures.
RetrieveQualifyingPropertiesTBD
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.

ReferenceValidated Event (XMLVerifier Module)

Marks the end of a reference validation.

Syntax

func onReferenceValidated(referenceIndex: Int32, id: String, uri: String, refType: String, digestValid: Bool)
- (void)onReferenceValidated:(int)referenceIndex :(NSString*)ID :(NSString*)URI :(NSString*)refType :(BOOL)digestValid;

Remarks

The class fires this event to report completion of a reference validation. A reference is a building block of a signature as it binds signature coverage to a particular piece of the document.

ResolveReference Event (XMLVerifier Module)

Asks the application to resolve a reference.

Syntax

func onResolveReference(referenceIndex: Int32, uri: String)
- (void)onResolveReference:(int)referenceIndex :(NSString*)URI;

Remarks

This event is fired when the control could not automatically resolve a reference and requires custom treatment.

URI contains a reference to the data.

ReferenceIndex specifies the index of the reference to process.

Based on the reference's URI the event handler should set either TargetXMLElement or TargetData property of the reference.

SignatureFound Event (XMLVerifier Module)

Signifies the start of signature validation.

Syntax

func onSignatureFound(index: Int32, entityLabel: String, issuerRDN: String, serialNumber: Data, subjectKeyID: Data, certFound: Bool, validateSignature: inout Bool, validateChain: inout Bool)
- (void)onSignatureFound:(int)index :(NSString*)entityLabel :(NSString*)issuerRDN :(NSData*)serialNumber :(NSData*)subjectKeyID :(BOOL)certFound :(int*)validateSignature :(int*)validateChain;

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 (XMLVerifier Module)

Marks the completion of the signature validation routine.

Syntax

func onSignatureValidated(index: Int32, entityLabel: String, issuerRDN: String, serialNumber: Data, subjectKeyID: Data, validationResult: Int32, cancel: inout Bool)
- (void)onSignatureValidated:(int)index :(NSString*)entityLabel :(NSString*)issuerRDN :(NSData*)serialNumber :(NSData*)subjectKeyID :(int)validationResult :(int*)cancel;

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.

svtFailure4General failure

svtReferenceCorrupted5Reference corrupted (XML-based signatures only)

Certificate Type

Encapsulates an individual X.509 certificate.

Remarks

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

The following fields are available:

Fields

bytes
Data (read-only)

Default Value: ""

Returns the raw certificate data in DER format.

ca
Bool

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
Data (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
CertTypes (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
String

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
String

Default Value: ""

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

fingerprint
String (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
String (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
String

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.

String

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

keyBits
Int32 (read-only)

Default Value: 0

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.
