Functions

sct_verify

Type:function (cert: opaque of x509, logid: string, log_key: string, signature: string, timestamp: count, hash_algorithm: count, issuer_key_hash: string &default = "" &optional) : bool

Verifies a Signed Certificate Timestamp as used for Certificate Transparency. See RFC6962 for more details.

Cert:Certificate against which the SCT should be validated. Logid:Log id of the SCT. Log_key:Public key of the Log that issued the SCT proof. Timestamp:Timestamp at which the proof was generated. Hash_algorithm:Hash algorithm that was used for the SCT proof. Issuer_key_hash:  The SHA-256 hash of the certificate issuer’s public key. This only has to be provided if the SCT was encountered in an X.509 certificate extension; in that case, it is necessary for validation. Returns:T if the validation could be performed succesfully, F otherwhise.

x509_get_certificate_string

Type:function (cert: opaque of x509, pem: bool &default = F &optional) : string

Returns the string form of a certificate.

Cert:The X509 certificate opaque handle. Pem:A boolean that specifies if the certificate is returned in pem-form (true), or as the raw ASN1 encoded binary (false). Returns:X509 certificate as a string.

x509_verify

Type:function (certs: x509_opaque_vector, root_certs: table_string_of_string, verify_time: time &default = 0.0 &optional) : X509::Result

Verifies a certificate.

Certs:Specifies a certificate chain that is being used to validate the given certificate against the root store given in root_certs. The host certificate has to be at index 0. Root_certs:A list of root certificates to validate the certificate chain. Verify_time:Time for the validity check of the certificates. Returns:A record of type X509::Result containing the result code of the verify operation. In case of success also returns the full certificate chain.
