Detailed Interface¶

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.

Issuer_key_hash:
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.
	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_from_der¶

Type:	`function` (der: `string`) : `opaque` of x509

Constructs an opaque of X509 from a der-formatted string.

Note:	this function is mostly meant for testing purposes

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_issuer_name_hash¶

Type:	`function` (cert: `opaque` of x509, hash_alg: `count`) : `string`

Get the hash of the issuer’s distinguished name.

Cert:

The X509 certificate opaque handle.

Hash_alg:

the hash algorithm to use, according to the IANA mapping at

:https://www.iana.org/assignments/tls-parameters/tls-parameters.xhtml#tls-parameters-18

Returns:

The hash as a string.

x509_ocsp_verify¶

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

Verifies an OCSP reply.

Certs:	Specifies the certificate chain to use. Server certificate first.
Ocsp_reply:	the ocsp reply to validate.
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.

x509_parse¶

Type:	`function` (cert: `opaque` of x509) : `X509::Certificate`

Parses a certificate into an X509::Certificate structure.

Cert:	The X509 certificate opaque handle.
Returns:	A X509::Certificate structure.

x509_set_certificate_cache¶

Type:	`function` (tbl: `string_any_table`) : `bool`

This function can be used to set up certificate caching. It has to be passed a table[string] which can contain any type.

After this is set up, for each certificate encountered, the X509 analyzer will check if the entry tbl[sha256 of certificate] is set. If this is the case, the X509 analyzer will skip all further processing, and instead just call the callback that is set with

x509_set_certificate_cache_hit_callback.

Tbl:	Table to use as the certificate cache.
Returns:	Always returns true.

Note

The base scripts use this function to set up certificate caching. You should only change the cache table if you are sure you will not conflict with the base scripts.

x509_set_certificate_cache_hit_callback¶

Type:	`function` (f: `string_any_file_hook`) : `bool`

This function sets up the callback that is called when an entry is matched against the table set by x509_set_certificate_cache.

F:	The callback that will be called when encountering a certificate in the cache table.
Returns:	Always returns true.

Note

The base scripts use this function to set up certificate caching. You should only change the callback function if you are sure you will not conflict with the base scripts.

x509_spki_hash¶

Type:	`function` (cert: `opaque` of x509, hash_alg: `count`) : `string`

Get the hash of the Subject Public Key Information of the certificate.

Cert:

The X509 certificate opaque handle.

Hash_alg:

the hash algorithm to use, according to the IANA mapping at

:https://www.iana.org/assignments/tls-parameters/tls-parameters.xhtml#tls-parameters-18

Returns:

The hash as a string.

x509_subject_name_hash¶

Type:	`function` (cert: `opaque` of x509, hash_alg: `count`) : `string`

Get the hash of the subject’s distinguished name.

Cert:

The X509 certificate opaque handle.

Hash_alg:

the hash algorithm to use, according to the IANA mapping at

:https://www.iana.org/assignments/tls-parameters/tls-parameters.xhtml#tls-parameters-18

Returns:

The hash 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.
