The CAdESSigner class creates CAdES- and CMS-compliant electronic signatures.

Syntax

class secureblackbox.CAdESSigner

Remarks

CAdESSigner can sign documents and files in compliance with CMS Advanced Electronic Signatures (CAdES) specification. Originally developed by ETSI on the basis of PKCS#7 format and initially adopted in the European Union, CAdES has quickly become a recognized international standard for signing all sorts of electronic documents. CAdESSigner signer = new CAdESSigner(); signer.getNewSignature().setHashAlgorithm("SHA512"); // Default hashing algorithm SHA256 signer.getNewSignature().setLevel(CAdESSignature.aslBaselineT); // Set the level of the signature // Select the file which will be signed signer.setInputFile("MyExe.exe"); // Set the path where the signed file will be saved signer.setOutputFile("signedFile.scs"); // Specify the certificate that shall be used for signing signer.setSigningCertificate(new Certificate("cert.pfx","password")); // Provide the address of the Time Stamping Authority (TSA) server to be used for timestamping the signature signer.setTimestampServer("http://freetsa.org/tsr"); signer.sign(); // Sign

Besides being a signature standard in its own right, CAdES is used as part of other higher-level signature standards, such as PAdES or S/MIME. It provides a convenient framework for creating short-lived and long-term signatures over any kind of documents, and is now used by governments, healthcare providers, banks, and independent service providers all across the globe.

Standards and technologies supported

CAdESSigner offers the following signing capabilities:

  • Create and upgrade CAdES signatures in accordance with the most recent CAdES specification (ETSI EN 319 122). Some features from older versions are also supported.
  • All profiles are supported (BES, EPES, T, C, X, XL, A, including Baseline and Extended variants).
  • Timestamping using external TSAs.
  • All industry-standard cryptographic algorithms (RSA, ECDSA, SHA256-512, and many others).

Configuring the signature parameters

Configuring CAdESSigner to make it produce a signature of the right type is the main task you would need to perform in your code. Normally the service or software you will be communicating your signed documents to will provide you with the list of requirements that your signatures should match.

Typically, those will dictate the following key aspects of the signatures:

  • The signature Level (such BES, T, XL, A, or XLong). This can be passed as the Level parameter of the sign method.
  • Whether the signature should be detached or enveloping: this can be adjusted via the Detached parameter of the sign method.
  • When creating a timestamped signature (such as T or A), provide the address of your online TSA service via timestamp_server property.
  • When creating long-term signatures that include the signing chain and validation material, tune up validation parameters via revocation_check, offline_mode, and ignore_chain_validation_errors properties.

In some circumstances you will also need to adjust the following lower-level settings:

Signing certificates

CAdESSigner 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) 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 interfaces can be plugged in with the external signing feature (see below).

You can use CertificateManager and CertificateStorage components to access the signing certificate. Assign the certificate to signing_certificate property, and optionally provide the remainder of its chain via signing_chain property.

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.

You don't need to provide a signing certificate or chain when timestamping and upgrading signatures, since this type of operation does not involve the signing private key.

Signing a file

Now that you have set up all signature properties and attached the signing certificate, it is time to proceed to signing. You can provide the input document in one of the following forms: as a file (assign the path to input_file property), as a stream (assign to input_stream property), or as a byte array (assign to input_bytes). Similarly, the output can be collected in one of the same forms, either by passing the destination path or stream via output_file and output_stream respectively, or by reading the resulting document bytes from the output_bytes property after the signing completes.

Having set up the input and output (unless using output_bytes, which should be read later), call the component's sign method, passing the desired signature level and type as parameters. 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. in CAdES-BES or B-B variant), or it may involve advanced chain validation routines (CAdES-XL or -A). During the latter the component may contact a number of external revocation information sources (CRL and OCSP servers) to establish the validity of the signing certificate.

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

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

Apart from signing, CAdESSigner can perform operations on signatures of other kinds. Use upgrade method to upgrade an existing CAdES signature to a higher level (e.g. BES to XL). Use timestamp to add a generic or validation timestamp to an existing signature. Use the countersign method to add a countersignature to an existing signature. For any of these operations the input should constitute a valid CAdES signature.

External signing and DCAuth

CAdESSigner, like many other components offered by 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 usage scenario best.

Synchronous method: ExternalSign

This is a simpler method that basically lets you infiltrate into the heart of 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 sign_external instead of sign. When the hash is ready, it will be passed back to your code with on_external_sign 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 often included in the hash calculation.

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

Asynchronous method: DCAuth

DCAuth is a SecureBlackbox-own 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 CAdESSigner - initiates the operation using sign_async_begin call. This produces two outcomes: a pre-signed document (a document with a blank signature placeholder), and a request state (an object containing a hash that needs to be signed). At this point the CAdESSigner 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 controls, and passes the response state, together with the pre-signed version of the document, to the signer's sign_async_end method. sign_async_end extracts the signature from the response state and incorporates it into the pre-signed document.

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.

  • revocation_check 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.
  • offline_mode 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 known_certificates, trusted_certificates, known_crls, and known_ocsps collections to look for the missing validation material.
  • ignore_chain_validation_errors 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.
  • known_certificates, known_crls, and known_ocsps let you provide your own validation material. This may be useful when working in offline_mode, where the signer has no access to the validation sources, or where the validation material has already been collected.
  • trusted_certificates lets you provide a list of trust anchors, either as a complement to the system's or as an alternative to it.
  • blocked_certificates 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, socket_settings, and tls_settings let you tune up the connectivity and TLS options in accordance with local preferences.
  • tls_client_chain lets you provide the client certificate and its chain for TLS client authentication.
  • Subscribe to on_tls_cert_validate 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:

  • chain_validation_result contains the primary result of the chain validation routine: valid, valid but untrusted, invalid, or undefined.
  • chain_validation_details 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.
  • validation_log contains the detailed chain validation log. The log can often be very helpful in nailing down various validation issues.

auto_validate_signatures Property

Specifies whether CAdESSigner should validate any present signatures when the document is opened.

Syntax

def get_auto_validate_signatures() -> bool: ...
def set_auto_validate_signatures(value: bool) -> None: ...

auto_validate_signatures = property(get_auto_validate_signatures, set_auto_validate_signatures)

Default Value

FALSE

Remarks

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

blocked_cert_count Property

The number of records in the BlockedCert arrays.

Syntax

def get_blocked_cert_count() -> int: ...
def set_blocked_cert_count(value: int) -> None: ...

blocked_cert_count = property(get_blocked_cert_count, set_blocked_cert_count)

Default Value

0

Remarks

This property controls the size of the following arrays:

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

blocked_cert_bytes Property

Returns the raw certificate data in DER format.

Syntax

def get_blocked_cert_bytes(blocked_cert_index: int) -> bytes: ...

Remarks

Returns the raw certificate data in DER format.

The blocked_cert_index parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the blocked_cert_count property.

This property is read-only.

blocked_cert_handle Property

Allows to get or set a 'handle', a unique identifier of the underlying property object.

Syntax

def get_blocked_cert_handle(blocked_cert_index: int) -> int: ...
def set_blocked_cert_handle(blocked_cert_index: int, value: int) -> None: ...

Default Value

0

Remarks

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());

The blocked_cert_index parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the blocked_cert_count property.

cert_count Property

The number of records in the Cert arrays.

Syntax

def get_cert_count() -> int: ...

cert_count = property(get_cert_count, None)

Default Value

0

Remarks

This property controls the size of the following arrays:

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

This property is read-only.

cert_bytes Property

Returns the raw certificate data in DER format.

Syntax

def get_cert_bytes(cert_index: int) -> bytes: ...

Remarks

Returns the raw certificate data in DER format.

The cert_index parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the cert_count property.

This property is read-only.

cert_ca Property

Indicates whether the certificate has a CA capability.

Syntax

def get_cert_ca(cert_index: int) -> bool: ...

Default Value

FALSE

Remarks

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.

The cert_index parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the cert_count property.

This property is read-only.

cert_ca_key_id Property

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

Syntax

def get_cert_ca_key_id(cert_index: int) -> bytes: ...

Remarks

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

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

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

The cert_index parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the cert_count property.

This property is read-only.

cert_cert_type Property

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

Syntax

def get_cert_cert_type(cert_index: int) -> int: ...

Default Value

0

Remarks

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

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

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

The cert_index parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the cert_count property.

This property is read-only.

cert_crl_distribution_points Property

Contains a list of locations of CRL distribution points used to check this certificate's validity.

Syntax

def get_cert_crl_distribution_points(cert_index: int) -> str: ...

Default Value

""

Remarks

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

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

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

The cert_index parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the cert_count property.

This property is read-only.

cert_curve Property

Specifies the elliptic curve associated with the certificate's public key.

Syntax

def get_cert_curve(cert_index: int) -> str: ...

Default Value

""

Remarks

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

external_crypto_key_id Property

The ID of the pre-shared key used for DC request authentication.

Syntax

def get_external_crypto_key_id() -> str: ...
def set_external_crypto_key_id(value: str) -> None: ...

external_crypto_key_id = property(get_external_crypto_key_id, set_external_crypto_key_id)

Default Value

""

Remarks

The ID of the pre-shared key used for DC request authentication.

Asynchronous DCAuth-driven communication requires that parties authenticate each other with a secret pre-shared cryptographic key. This provides an extra protection layer for the protocol and diminishes the risk of the private key becoming abused by foreign parties. Use this property to provide the pre-shared key identifier, and use external_crypto_key_secret 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";

external_crypto_key_secret Property

The pre-shared key used for DC request authentication.

Syntax

def get_external_crypto_key_secret() -> str: ...

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.
crcAllCRL2All provided CRL endpoints will be checked, and all checks must succeed.
crcAllOCSP3All provided OCSP endpoints will be checked, and all checks must succeed.
crcAllCRLAndOCSP4All provided CRL and OCSP endpoints will be checked, and all checks must succeed.
crcAnyCRL5All provided CRL endpoints will be checked, and at least one check must succeed.
crcAnyOCSP6All provided OCSP endpoints will be checked, and at least one check must succeed.
crcAnyCRLOrOCSP7All provided CRL and OCSP endpoints will be checked, and at least one check must succeed. CRL endpoints are checked first.
crcAnyOCSPOrCRL8All 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.

Syntax

def get_timestamp_server() -> str: ...
def set_timestamp_server(value: str) -> None: ...

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 tls_client_chain 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 on_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.

tls_revocation_check Property

Specifies the kind(s) of revocation check to perform.

Syntax

def get_tls_revocation_check() -> int: ...
def set_tls_revocation_check(value: int) -> None: ...

tls_revocation_check = property(get_tls_revocation_check, set_tls_revocation_check)

Default Value

1

Remarks

Specifies the kind(s) of revocation check to perform.

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

crcNone0No revocation checking.
crcAuto1Automatic mode selection. Currently this maps to crcAnyOCSPOrCRL, but it may change in the future.
crcAllCRL2All provided CRL endpoints will be checked, and all checks must succeed.
crcAllOCSP3All provided OCSP endpoints will be checked, and all checks must succeed.
crcAllCRLAndOCSP4All provided CRL and OCSP endpoints will be checked, and all checks must succeed.
crcAnyCRL5All provided CRL endpoints will be checked, and at least one check must succeed.
crcAnyOCSP6All provided OCSP endpoints will be checked, and at least one check must succeed.
crcAnyCRLOrOCSP7All provided CRL and OCSP endpoints will be checked, and at least one check must succeed. CRL endpoints are checked first.
crcAnyOCSPOrCRL8All 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.

def set_trusted_cert_handle(trusted_cert_index: int, value: int) -> None: ...

Default Value

0

Remarks

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());

The trusted_cert_index parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the trusted_cert_count property.

unsigned_attribute_count Property

def set_validation_moment(value: str) -> None: ...

validation_moment = property(get_validation_moment, set_validation_moment)

Default Value

""

Remarks

Use this property to specify the moment in time at which signature validity should be established. The time is in UTC. Leave the setting empty to stick to the default moment (either the signature creation time or the current time).

The validity of the same signature may differ depending on the time point chosen due to temporal changes in chain validities, revocation statuses, and timestamp times.

add_attribute Method

Adds an attribute to the signature.

Syntax

def add_attribute(oid: str, value: bytes, signed_attribute: bool) -> int: ...

Remarks

Use this method to add a signed or unsigned attribute to the collection of attributes included in the new signature.

Note that CAdESSigner creates certain mandatory and/or widely used attributes automatically in accordance with requirements for a specific signing profile. For example, attributes such as SigningCertificateV2 or SigningTime are always added. Policy attributes are added if specified via the PolicyID or PolicyURI properties of the signature object.

Use the OID parameter to provide the object identifier of the attribute, in string form. For example, the OID for the SigningCertificateV2 attribute is 1.2.840.113549.1.9.16.2.47. The Value parameter should contain a well-formed, DER-encoded representation of the attribute value, in accordance with its specification.

archive Method

Archives the signature.

Syntax

def archive(sig_label: str, baseline: bool) -> None: ...

Remarks

Call this method to produce an archival signature. Archival signature (CAdES-A) is built on top of CAdES-XL by certifying it with an archival timestamp.

Set Baseline to True to produce a baseline CAdES-A.

close Method

Closes an opened container.

Syntax

def close(save_changes: bool) -> None: ...

Remarks

Use this method to close a previously opened container. Set SaveChanges to true to apply any changes made.

config Method

Sets or retrieves a configuration setting.

Syntax

def config(configuration_string: str) -> str: ...

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.

create_new Method

Create a new CAdES signature.

Syntax

def create_new() -> None: ...

Remarks

Use this method to create a new CAdES signature. When finished, call close to complete or discard the operation.

do_action Method

Performs an additional action.

Syntax

def do_action(action_id: str, action_params: str) -> str: ...

Remarks

do_action 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;....

extract_async_data Method

Extracts user data from the DC signing service response.

Syntax

def extract_async_data(async_reply: str) -> str: ...

Remarks

Call this method before finalizing the asynchronous signing process to extract the data passed to the ExternalCrypto.Data property on the pre-signing stage.

The Data parameter can be used to pass some state or document identifier along with the signing request from the pre-signing to the completion async stage.

open Method

Opens an existing container for signing or updating.

Syntax

def open() -> None: ...

Remarks

Use this method to open a container for signing or updating. When finished, call close to complete or discard the operation.

reset Method

Resets the class settings.

Syntax

def reset() -> None: ...

Remarks

reset is a generic method available in every class.

revalidate Method

Revalidates a signature in accordance with current settings.

Syntax

def revalidate(sig_label: str) -> None: ...

Remarks

Use this method to re-validate a signature in the opened CAdES signature.

select_info Method

Select signature information for a specific entity.

Syntax

def select_info(entity_label: str, info_type: int, clear_selection: bool) -> None: ...

Remarks

Use this method to select (or filter) signature-related information for a specific signature element.

Provide the unique label of the entity that you are interested in via the EntityLabel parameter. Use one of the following filters, or their combination, to specify what information you are interested in:

sitEntity1Select the current entity

sitParentEntity2Select the parent entity of the current entity

sitTimestamps4Select all timestamps covering the current entity

sitSignatures8Select all signatures covering the current entity

sitSigningChain16Select the signing chain of the current entity

sitEmbeddedCertificates256Select all certificates embedded in the current entity

sitEmbeddedCRLs512Select all CRLs embedded in the current entity

sitEmbeddedOCSPs1024Select all OCSP responses embedded in the current entity

sitEmbeddedRevInfo1792Select the whole pack of embedded revocation information (certificates, CRLs and OCSPs)

sitUsedCertificates4096Select all the certificates used to validate this entity's chain

sitUsedCRLs8192Select all the CRLs used to validate this entity's chain

sitUsedOCSPs16384Select all the OCSP responses used to validate this entity's chain

sitUsedRevInfo28672Select the whole pack of revocation information used to validate this entity's chain (certificates, CRLs, OCSP responses)

sitAttributes65536Select this entity's CMS attributes

sitReferences131072Select this entity's XML references

sitSignedParts262144Select this entity's signed parts

Following the call, the relevant pieces of information will be copied to the respective component properties (Certificates, CRLs, OCSPs). Note that you can accumulate information in the properties by making repeated calls to select_info and keeping ClearSelection set to false.

This method is useful if you would like to read/display detailed information about a particular signature or timestamp.

sign Method

Creates a new CAdES signature over the provided data.

Syntax

def sign() -> None: ...

Remarks

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

sign_async_begin Method

Initiates the asynchronous signing operation.

Syntax

def sign_async_begin() -> str: ...

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 output_file (or output_stream). 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 input_file (or input_stream), and call sign_async_end 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 signing_certificate 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 sign_async_end 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 sign_async_begin 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 sign_async_end method.

sign_async_end Method

Completes the asynchronous signing operation.

Syntax

def sign_async_end(async_reply: str) -> None: ...

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 sign_async_begin call to input_file (or input_stream). The method will embed the signature into the pre-signed document, and save the complete signed document to output_file (or output_stream).

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 signing_certificate 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 (sign_async_begin) 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 sign_async_begin 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 sign_async_end method.

sign_external Method

Signs the document using an external signing facility.

Syntax

def sign_external() -> None: ...

Remarks

Use this method to create a CAdES signature using an external signing facility for the cryptographic computations. SignRemote delegates 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 on_external_sign event which allows to pass the hash value for signing.

timestamp Method

Use this method to add timestamp.

Syntax

def timestamp(sig_label: str, timestamp_type: int) -> None: ...

Remarks

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

on_chain_validation_progress Event

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

Syntax

class CAdESSignerChainValidationProgressEventParams(object):
  @property
  def event_kind() -> str: ...

  @property
  def cert_rdn() -> str: ...

  @property
  def ca_cert_rdn() -> str: ...

  @property
  def action() -> int: ...
  @action.setter
  def action(value) -> None: ...

# In class CAdESSigner:
@property
def on_chain_validation_progress() -> Callable[[CAdESSignerChainValidationProgressEventParams], None]: ...
@on_chain_validation_progress.setter
def on_chain_validation_progress(event_hook: Callable[[CAdESSignerChainValidationProgressEventParams], None]) -> None: ...

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

on_error Event

Information about errors during CAdES signing.

Syntax

class CAdESSignerErrorEventParams(object):
  @property
  def error_code() -> int: ...

  @property
  def description() -> str: ...

# In class CAdESSigner:
@property
def on_error() -> Callable[[CAdESSignerErrorEventParams], None]: ...
@on_error.setter
def on_error(event_hook: Callable[[CAdESSignerErrorEventParams], None]) -> None: ...

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.

on_external_sign Event

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

Syntax

class CAdESSignerExternalSignEventParams(object):
  @property
  def operation_id() -> str: ...

  @property
  def hash_algorithm() -> str: ...

  @property
  def pars() -> str: ...

  @property
  def data() -> str: ...

  @property
  def signed_data() -> str: ...
  @signed_data.setter
  def signed_data(value) -> None: ...

# In class CAdESSigner:
@property
def on_external_sign() -> Callable[[CAdESSignerExternalSignEventParams], None]: ...
@on_external_sign.setter
def on_external_sign(event_hook: Callable[[CAdESSignerExternalSignEventParams], None]) -> None: ...

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(); };

on_loaded Event

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

Syntax

class CAdESSignerLoadedEventParams(object):
  @property
  def cancel() -> bool: ...
  @cancel.setter
  def cancel(value) -> None: ...

# In class CAdESSigner:
@property
def on_loaded() -> Callable[[CAdESSignerLoadedEventParams], None]: ...
@on_loaded.setter
def on_loaded(event_hook: Callable[[CAdESSignerLoadedEventParams], None]) -> None: ...

Remarks

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

Set Cancel to true to terminate CAdES signature processing on this stage.

on_notification Event

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

Syntax

class CAdESSignerNotificationEventParams(object):
  @property
  def event_id() -> str: ...

  @property
  def event_param() -> str: ...

# In class CAdESSigner:
@property
def on_notification() -> Callable[[CAdESSignerNotificationEventParams], None]: ...
@on_notification.setter
def on_notification(event_hook: Callable[[CAdESSignerNotificationEventParams], None]) -> None: ...

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.
ContentExtractedReports the completion of message content extraction by the component if extract_content property is enabled. Use the event handler to access message content. The EventParam value passed with this EventID is empty.
SignaturesLoadedNotifies the application that the component has finished loading signatures.
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 timestamp_server was set to a virtual:// URI. The EventParam parameter contains the TSP request (or the plain hash, depending on the value provided to timestamp_server), 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.

on_signature_found Event

Signifies the start of signature validation.

Syntax

class CAdESSignerSignatureFoundEventParams(object):
  @property
  def index() -> int: ...

  @property
  def entity_label() -> str: ...

  @property
  def issuer_rdn() -> str: ...

def on_signature_found() -> Callable[[CAdESSignerSignatureFoundEventParams], None]: ...
@on_signature_found.setter
def on_signature_found(event_hook: Callable[[CAdESSignerSignatureFoundEventParams], None]) -> None: ...

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 known_certificates 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.

on_signature_validated Event

Marks the completion of the signature validation routine.

Syntax

class CAdESSignerSignatureValidatedEventParams(object):
  @property
  def index() -> int: ...

  @property

def on_signature_validated() -> Callable[[CAdESSignerSignatureValidatedEventParams], None]: ...
@on_signature_validated.setter
def on_signature_validated(event_hook: Callable[[CAdESSignerSignatureValidatedEventParams], None]) -> None: ...

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)

on_timestamp_found Event

Signifies the start of a timestamp validation routine.

Syntax

class CAdESSignerTimestampFoundEventParams(object):
  @property
  def index() -> int: ...

  @property
  def entity_label() -> str: ...

  @property
  def issuer_rdn() -> str: ...

@on_timestamp_found.setter
def on_timestamp_found(event_hook: Callable[[CAdESSignerTimestampFoundEventParams], None]) -> None: ...

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 known_certificates 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.

on_timestamp_request Event

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

Syntax

class CAdESSignerTimestampRequestEventParams(object):
  @property
  def tsa() -> str: ...

  @property
  def timestamp_request() -> str: ...

  @property
  def timestamp_response() -> str: ...
  @timestamp_response.setter
  def timestamp_response(value) -> None: ...

  @property
  def suppress_default() -> bool: ...
  @suppress_default.setter
  def suppress_default(value) -> None: ...

# In class CAdESSigner:
@property
def on_timestamp_request() -> Callable[[CAdESSignerTimestampRequestEventParams], None]: ...
@on_timestamp_request.setter
def on_timestamp_request(event_hook: Callable[[CAdESSignerTimestampRequestEventParams], None]) -> None: ...

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 timestamp_server 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.

on_timestamp_validated Event

Reports the completion of the timestamp validation routine.

Syntax

class CAdESSignerTimestampValidatedEventParams(object):
  @property
  def index() -> int: ...

  @property
  def entity_label() -> str: ...

@on_timestamp_validated.setter
def on_timestamp_validated(event_hook: Callable[[CAdESSignerTimestampValidatedEventParams], None]) -> None: ...

Remarks

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

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

on_tls_cert_needed Event

Fires when a remote TLS party requests a client certificate.

Syntax

class CAdESSignerTLSCertNeededEventParams(object):
  @property
  def host() -> str: ...

  @property
  def ca_names() -> str: ...

# In class CAdESSigner:
@property
def on_tls_cert_needed() -> Callable[[CAdESSignerTLSCertNeededEventParams], None]: ...
@on_tls_cert_needed.setter
def on_tls_cert_needed(event_hook: Callable[[CAdESSignerTLSCertNeededEventParams], None]) -> None: ...

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 tls_client_chain 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 on_tls_handshake event for the given host and, if the certificate was accepted, succeeded by the on_tls_established event.

on_tls_cert_validate Event

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

Syntax

class CAdESSignerTLSCertValidateEventParams(object):
  @property
  def server_host() -> str: ...

  @property
  def server_ip() -> str: ...

  @property
  def accept() -> bool: ...
  @accept.setter
  def accept(value) -> None: ...

# In class CAdESSigner:
@property
def on_tls_cert_validate() -> Callable[[CAdESSignerTLSCertValidateEventParams], None]: ...
@on_tls_cert_validate.setter
def on_tls_cert_validate(event_hook: Callable[[CAdESSignerTLSCertValidateEventParams], None]) -> None: ...

Remarks

This event is fired during a TLS handshake. Use the tls_server_chain 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.

on_tls_established Event

Fires when a TLS handshake with Host successfully completes.

Syntax

class CAdESSignerTLSEstablishedEventParams(object):
  @property
  def host() -> str: ...

  @property
  def version() -> str: ...

  @property
  def ciphersuite() -> str: ...

  @property
  def connection_id() -> bytes: ...

  @property
  def abort() -> bool: ...
  @abort.setter
  def abort(value) -> None: ...

# In class CAdESSigner:
@property
def on_tls_established() -> Callable[[CAdESSignerTLSEstablishedEventParams], None]: ...
@on_tls_established.setter
def on_tls_established(event_hook: Callable[[CAdESSignerTLSEstablishedEventParams], None]) -> None: ...

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.

on_tls_handshake Event

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

Syntax

class CAdESSignerTLSHandshakeEventParams(object):
  @property
  def host() -> str: ...

  @property
  def abort() -> bool: ...
  @abort.setter
  def abort(value) -> None: ...

# In class CAdESSigner:
@property
def on_tls_handshake() -> Callable[[CAdESSignerTLSHandshakeEventParams], None]: ...
@on_tls_handshake.setter
def on_tls_handshake(event_hook: Callable[[CAdESSignerTLSHandshakeEventParams], None]) -> None: ...

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 on_tls_established event. If the server chooses to request a client certificate, the on_tls_cert_needed event will also be fired.

on_tls_shutdown Event

Reports the graceful closure of a TLS connection.

Syntax

class CAdESSignerTLSShutdownEventParams(object):
  @property
  def host() -> str: ...

# In class CAdESSigner:
@property
def on_tls_shutdown() -> Callable[[CAdESSignerTLSShutdownEventParams], None]: ...
@on_tls_shutdown.setter
def on_tls_shutdown(event_hook: Callable[[CAdESSignerTLSShutdownEventParams], None]) -> None: ...

Remarks

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

CAdESSigner Config Settings

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.

CAdESSigner Config Settings

AddReferencesToAllUsedCertsAndRevInfo:   Whether to include all certificates and revocation references in CompleteCertificateRefs attribute.

If this property is set, all certificates and revocation references collected during validation will be added to the CompleteCertificateRefs attribute of the signature. This feature is not required by the CAdES specification, however, some processors may expect such behavior.

AddReferencesToIrrevocableCerts:   Whether references to irrevocable certificates should be included in CompleteCertificateRefs attribute.

Set this property to True to include references to irrevocable certificates in CompleteCertificateRefs attribute

AddReferenceToSigningCert:   Whether a reference to the signing certificate should be included in CompleteCertificateRefs attribute.

Set this property to True to include a reference to the signing certificate in CompleteCertificateRefs attribute

AllowPartialValidationInfo:   Whether to allow for missing validation info.

If this property is set to True, signature validation will not fail if validation information for a certificate is absent.

AsyncDocumentID:   Specifies the document ID for SignAsyncEnd() call.

Use this property when working with multi-signature DCAuth requests and responses to uniquely identify documents signed within a larger batch. This value helps ASiCSigner 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 pre-signing (SignAsyncBegin) and completion (SignAsyncEnd) stages.

ChainCurrentCACert:   Returns the current CA certificate.

This property returns the CA certificate that is used on the current step.

ChainCurrentCert:   Returns the certificate that is currently being validated.

Use this property to obtain the body of the certificate that is currently being validated.

ChainCurrentCRL:   Returns the current CRL.

Returns the CRL object that is currently being processed.

ChainCurrentCRLSize:   Returns the size of the current CRL.

This property returns the size of the CRL object that is currently being processed.

ChainCurrentOCSP:   Returns the current OCSP response.

Returns the OCSP object that is currently being processed.

ChainCurrentOCSPSigner:   Returns the signer of the current OCSP object.

Returns the signer/CA that has issued the OCSP response that is currently being processed.

ChainInterimDetails:   Returns the current interim validation details.

This property returns the interim chain validation details.

ChainInterimResult:   Returns the current interim validation result.

Use this setting to obtain the current (mid-chain) validation result. This property applies to the current validation step and may change as the chain walk proceeds. The final result will be published in the ChainValidationResult property once the validation process completes.

CheckValidityPeriodForTrusted:   Whether to check validity period for trusted certificates.

Whether to check validity period for trusted certificates.

CmsOptAnnexKArchiveTimestampV2Mode:   Toggles use of Annex K method of calculating validation timestamp hashes.

This CMS message option toggles the use of Annex K method of calculating validation timestamp hashes. Switch this option off to stick to RFC5126 p6.3.5 method.

CmsOptCheckATSHashIndexElements:   Enables extra checks when processing ATSHashIndex attribute.

This CMS message option enables an extra check to make sure every hash in ATSHashIndex has an associated CMS element.

CmsOptCompareRDNAsStrings:   Enforces comparison of RDN elements as text strings, rather than their byte encodings.

This CMS message option enforces comparison of string RDN elements as text strings rather than their original byte encodings.

CmsOptDEREncodeContentForATSv2:   Enables DER encoding for ATSv2 hashed content.

This is an outdated setting, which reflects a complicated (at times) story of AdES infrastructure development. You are unlikely to need it.

CmsOptDigitPADSSCompatibility:   Enables Digit PADSS compatibility mode.

This CMS message option enables compatibility mode with Digit PADSS software.

CmsOptForceSigningCertificateV2Usage:   Enforces use of signing-certificate-v2 attribute.

This CMS message option enforces the use of signing-certificate-v2 attribute in favour of older signing-certificate-v1. Current regulations require that signing-certificate-v2 is used at all times.

CmsOptIgnoreDERReqInArchiveTimestamps:   Switches off DER encoding requirement for archival timestamps.

This CMS message option switches off DER encoding requirement for archival timestamps (normally meaning no attribute reordering). This setting is a workaround for certain buggy CAdES products.

CmsOptImzagerMIMCompatibility:   Enables Imzager MIM compatibility mode.

This CMS message option enables compatibility mode with Imzager MIM software.

CmsOptIncludeCertToAttributes:   Regulates whether to include the signing certificate to the signature as the signing-certificate attribute.

This CMS message option controls inclusion of the signing certificate as the signing-certificate attribute. Current regulations require that this attribute is present.

CmsOptIncludeCertToMessage:   Regulates whether to include the signing certificate and its chain to the CMS.

This CMS message option controls inclusion of the signing certificate to the CMS structure. It is recommended that the certificate is included. Note that this option has no effect if the signature level used (e.g. XL) enforces inclusion of the certificate to the message.

CmsOptInsertContentType:   Regulates whether the content-type time attribute should be included in the signature structure.

This CMS message option specifies whether the content-type attribute should be included in the signature structure.

CmsOptInsertMessageDigests:   Regulates whether the message-digest signed attribute should be included in the signature structure.

This CMS message option controls inclusion of the message-digest attribute in the signature structure. Current regulations require that this attribute is present at all times.

CmsOptInsertSigningTime:   Regulates whether the signing-time attribute should be included in the signature structure.

This CMS message option specifies whether the signing-time attribute should be included in the signature structure. Switch it off to suppress inclusion of the signing-time attribute.

CmsOptSkipEnvContentInfoOnSigArchival:   Excludes hashing of enveloped content when calculating an archival timestamp.

This CMS message option excludes hashing of enveloped content when calculating an archival timestamp. This setting is a workaround for certain buggy CAdES products.

CmsOptUseATSHashIndexV1:   Enables use of ATSHashIndexV1 attribute.

This CMS message option enables use of deprecated ATSHashIndexV1 attribute when calculating archival timestamp V3 hashes.

CmsOptUseATSHashIndexV3:   Enables the use of the third version of archival timestamps.

Enables the use of archival timestamp v3 objects when creating long-term and archival signatures. This is the default setting. Setting it to false tells the components to stick with archival timestamps version 2.

CmsOptUseGeneralizedTimeFormat:   Enables or disables encoding of the signing-time attribute using ASN.1 GENERALIZEDTIME type.

This CMS message option controls whether the signing-time attribute should be encoded as GENERALIZEDTIME or UTCTIME. Current regulations require that the GENERALIZEDTIME type is used at all times.

CmsOptUseGenericSigAlgorithmOIDs:   Enables use of generic signature algorithm OIDs in the signature.

This CMS message option enforces the use of generic public key algorithm OIDs (e.g. rsaEncryption) instead of hash algorithm-specific variants (e.g. sha256withRsaEncryption). This setting is a workaround for certain buggy CAdES products.

CmsOptUsePlainContentForTimestampHashes:   Makes CAdESSigner ignore ASN.1 content formatting when calculating timestamp hashes.

This CMS message option causes CAdESSigner to ignore ASN.1 formatting when feeding content to timestamp hashes (might make a difference with split OCTETSTRINGs for extra long contents). This option is only applicable to content timestamps and ArchivalTimestampV1's. This setting is a workaround for certain buggy CAdES products.

ContentType:   The content type of the CMS message.

Specifies the content type of the CMS message.

CustomTrustedLists:   Specifies the custom TrustedLists.

Use this property to specify the custom TSLs (Trust Service status Lists) to the validator. The URLs list is comma-separated.

CustomTSLs:   Specifies the custom TrustedLists.

Use this property to specify the custom TSLs (Trust Service status Lists) to the validator. The URLs list is comma-separated.

DeepCountersignatureValidation:   Whether to validate countersignatures.

When this property is set, deep validation of countersignatures is performed.

DeepTimestampValidation:   Whether to perform deep validation of all timestamps.

When this property is set, deep validation of all signature's timestamps is performed.

DislikeOpenEndedOCSPs:   Tells the class to discourage OCSP responses without an explicit NextUpdate parameter.

When this property is set to True, the validation engine treats OCSP response without a NextUpdate field as 'substandard' and tries to obtain some further revocation material for the certificate in question (a different OCSP or a CRL, even if the class is configured to prefer the OCSP route). This is to work around Adobe Reader's intolerance to such OCSPs when classifying signed documents as LTV (as of August 2022).

ForceCompleteChainValidation:   Whether to check the CA certificates when the signing certificate is invalid.

Set this property to True to check issuer (CA) certificates if the signing or an intermediate chain certificate is invalid.

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.

IgnoreChainLoops:   Whether chain loops should be ignored.

Set this property to True to make the validation engine ignore chain loops. This may be an option when you need to process chains from buggy CAs that happen to include subchains that sign themselves.

IgnoreChainValidationErrors:   Whether to ignore any certificate chain validation issues.

Enable this property to ignore any chain validation errors when creating a signature. This may be useful if the signature is created in an environment which uses different trust settings to the validation environment.

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 trusted_certificates property) are considered trusted.

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).
