CMS_add1_recipient_cert3ssl
Add recipients to a cms enveloped data structure
Usage
#include <openssl/cms.h>CMS_RecipientInfo *CMS_add1_recipient(CMS_ContentInfo *cms, X509 *recip,EVP_PKEY *originatorPrivKey,X509 *originator, unsigned int flags);CMS_RecipientInfo *CMS_add1_recipient_cert(CMS_ContentInfo *cms,X509 *recip, unsigned int flags);CMS_RecipientInfo *CMS_add0_recipient_key(CMS_ContentInfo *cms, int nid,unsigned char *key, size_t keylen,unsigned char *id, size_t idlen,ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME *date,ASN1_OBJECT *otherTypeId,ASN1_TYPE *otherType);
Overview
CMS_add1_recipient() adds recipient recip and provides the originator pkey originatorPrivKey and originator certificate originator to CMS_ContentInfo. The originator-related fields are relevant only in case when the keyAgreement method of providing of the shared key is in use.
CMS_add1_recipient_cert() adds recipient recip to CMS_ContentInfo enveloped data structure cms as a KeyTransRecipientInfo or KEMRecipientInfo structure, or as a KeyAgreeRecipientInfo structure with an ephemeral key.
CMS_add0_recipient_key() adds symmetric key key of length keylen using wrapping algorithm nid, identifier id of length idlen and optional values date, otherTypeId and otherType to CMS_ContentInfo enveloped data structure cms as a KEKRecipientInfo structure.
The CMS_ContentInfo structure should be obtained from an initial call to CMS_encrypt() with the flag CMS_PARTIAL set.
Notes
The main purpose of this function is to provide finer control over a CMS enveloped data structure where the simpler CMS_encrypt() function defaults are not appropriate. For example if one or more KEKRecipientInfo structures need to be added. New attributes can also be added using the returned CMS_RecipientInfo structure and the CMS attribute utility functions.
OpenSSL will by default identify recipient certificates using issuer name and serial number. If CMS_USE_KEYID is set it will use the subject key identifier value instead. An error occurs if all recipient certificates do not have a subject key identifier extension.
Currently only AES based key wrapping algorithms are supported for nid, specifically: NID_id_aes128_wrap, NID_id_aes192_wrap and NID_id_aes256_wrap. If nid is set to NID_undef then an AES wrap algorithm will be used consistent with keylen.
Return values
CMS_add1_recipient_cert() and CMS_add0_recipient_key() return an internal pointer to the CMS_RecipientInfo structure just added or NULL if an error occurs.
