Overview

X509_digest_sig() calculates a digest of the given certificate cert using the same hash algorithm as in its signature, if the digest is an integral part of the certificate signature algorithm identifier. Otherwise, a fallback hash algorithm is determined as follows: SHA512 if the signature algorithm is ED25519, SHAKE256 if it is ED448, otherwise SHA256. The output parameters are assigned as follows. Unless md_used is NULL, the hash algorithm used is provided in *md_used and must be freed by the caller (if it is not NULL). Unless md_is_fallback is NULL, the *md_is_fallback is set to 1 if the hash algorithm used is a fallback, otherwise to 0.

X509_pubkey_digest() returns a digest of the DER representation of the public key in the specified X509 data object.

All other functions described here return a digest of the DER representation of their entire data objects.

The type parameter specifies the digest to be used, such as EVP_sha1(). The md is a pointer to the buffer where the digest will be copied and is assumed to be large enough; the constant EVP_MAX_MD_SIZE is suggested. The len parameter, if not NULL, points to a place where the digest size will be stored.

Return values

X509_digest_sig() returns an ASN1_OCTET_STRING pointer on success, else NULL.

All other functions described here return 1 for success and 0 for failure.
