PKCS12_ADD_SAFE(3SSL) OpenSSL PKCS12_ADD_SAFE(3SSL)
NAME
PKCS12_add_safe, PKCS12_add_safe_ex, PKCS12_add_safes,
PKCS12_add_safes_ex - Create and add objects to a PKCS#12 structure
SYNOPSIS
#include <openssl/pkcs12.h>
int PKCS12_add_safe(STACK_OF(PKCS7) **psafes, STACK_OF(PKCS12_SAFEBAG) *bags,
int safe_nid, int iter, const char *pass);
int PKCS12_add_safe_ex(STACK_OF(PKCS7) **psafes, STACK_OF(PKCS12_SAFEBAG) *bags,
int safe_nid, int iter, const char *pass,
OSSL_LIB_CTX *ctx, const char *propq);
PKCS12 *PKCS12_add_safes(STACK_OF(PKCS7) *safes, int p7_nid);
PKCS12 *PKCS12_add_safes_ex(STACK_OF(PKCS7) *safes, int p7_nid,
OSSL_LIB_CTX *ctx, const char *propq);
DESCRIPTION
PKCS12_add_safe() creates a new PKCS7 contentInfo containing the
supplied PKCS12_SAFEBAGs and adds this to a set of PKCS7 contentInfos.
Its type depends on the value of safe_nid:
• If safe_nid is -1, a plain PKCS7 data contentInfo is created.
• If safe_nid is a valid PBE algorithm NID, a PKCS7 encryptedData
contentInfo is created. The algorithm uses pass as the passphrase
and iter as the iteration count. If iter is zero then a default
value for iteration count of 2048 is used.
• If safe_nid is 0, a PKCS7 encryptedData contentInfo is created using
a default encryption algorithm, currently
NID_pbe_WithSHA1And3_Key_TripleDES_CBC.
PKCS12_add_safe_ex() is identical to PKCS12_add_safe() but allows for a
library context ctx and property query propq to be used to select
algorithm implementations.
PKCS12_add_safes() creates a PKCS12 structure containing the supplied
set of PKCS7 contentInfos. The safes are enclosed first within a PKCS7
contentInfo of type p7_nid. Currently the only supported type is
NID_pkcs7_data.
PKCS12_add_safes_ex() is identical to PKCS12_add_safes() but allows for
a library context ctx and property query propq to be used to select
algorithm implementations.
NOTES
PKCS12_add_safe() makes assumptions regarding the encoding of the given
pass phrase. See passphrase-encoding(7) for more information.
RETURN VALUES
PKCS12_add_safe() returns a value of 1 indicating success or 0 for
failure.
PKCS12_add_safes() returns a valid PKCS12 structure or NULL if an error
occurred.
