.SH NAME

gnutls_pkcs7_verify_direct \- API function

.SH SYNOPSIS

.B #include <gnutls/pkcs7.h>

.sp

.BI "int gnutls_pkcs7_verify_direct(gnutls_pkcs7_t " pkcs7 ", gnutls_x509_crt_t " signer ", unsigned " idx ", const gnutls_datum_t * " data ", unsigned " flags ");"

.SH ARGUMENTS

.IP "gnutls_pkcs7_t pkcs7" 12

should contain a \fBgnutls_pkcs7_t\fP type

.IP "gnutls_x509_crt_t signer" 12

the certificate believed to have signed the structure

.IP "unsigned idx" 12

the index of the signature info to check

.IP "const gnutls_datum_t * data" 12

The data to be verified or \fBNULL\fP

.IP "unsigned flags" 12

Zero or an OR list of \fBgnutls_certificate_verify_flags\fP

.SH "DESCRIPTION"

This function will verify the provided data against the signature

present in the SignedData of the PKCS \fB7\fP structure. If the data

provided are NULL then the data in the encapsulatedContent field

will be used instead.

Note that, unlike \fBgnutls_pkcs7_verify()\fP this function does not

verify the key purpose of the signer. It is expected for the caller

to verify the intended purpose of the \fBsigner\fP \-e.g., via \fBgnutls_x509_crt_get_key_purpose_oid()\fP,

or \fBgnutls_x509_crt_check_key_purpose()\fP.

Note also, that since GnuTLS 3.5.6 this function introduces checks in the

end certificate ( \fIsigner\fP ), including time checks and key usage checks.

.SH "RETURNS"

On success, \fBGNUTLS_E_SUCCESS\fP (0) is returned, otherwise a

negative error value. A verification error results to a

\fBGNUTLS_E_PK_SIG_VERIFY_FAILED\fP and the lack of encapsulated data

to verify to a \fBGNUTLS_E_REQUESTED_DATA_NOT_AVAILABLE\fP.

.SH "SINCE"
