=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
The B<X509_STORE> structure is intended to be a consolidated mechanism for
|
|
holding information about X.509 certificates and CRLs, and constructing
|
|
and validating chains of certificates terminating in trusted roots.
|
|
It admits multiple lookup mechanisms and efficient scaling performance
|
|
with large numbers of certificates, and a great deal of flexibility in
|
|
how validation and policy checks are performed.
|
|
|
|
L<X509_STORE_new(3)> creates an empty B<X509_STORE> structure, which contains
|
|
no information about trusted certificates or where such certificates
|
|
are located on disk, and is generally not usable. Normally, trusted
|
|
certificates will be added to the B<X509_STORE> to prepare it for use,
|
|
via mechanisms such as X509_STORE_add_lookup() and X509_LOOKUP_file(), or
|
|
PEM_read_bio_X509_AUX() and X509_STORE_add_cert(). CRLs can also be added,
|
|
and many behaviors configured as desired.
|
|
|
|
Once the B<X509_STORE> is suitably configured, X509_STORE_CTX_new() is
|
|
used to instantiate a single-use B<X509_STORE_CTX> for each chain-building
|
|
and verification operation. That process includes providing the end-entity
|
|
certificate to be verified and an additional set of untrusted certificates
|
|
that may be used in chain-building. As such, it is expected that the
|
|
certificates included in the B<X509_STORE> are certificates that represent
|
|
trusted entities such as root certificate authorities (CAs).
|
|
OpenSSL represents these trusted certificates internally as B<X509> objects
|
|
with an associated B<X509_CERT_AUX>, as are produced by
|
|
PEM_read_bio_X509_AUX() and similar routines that refer to X509_AUX.
|
|
The public interfaces that operate on such trusted certificates still
|
|
operate on pointers to B<X509> objects, though.
|
|
|
|
X509_STORE_add_cert() and X509_STORE_add_crl() add the respective object
|
|
to the B<X509_STORE>'s local storage. Untrusted objects should not be
|
|
added in this way.
|
|
|
|
X509_STORE_set_depth(), X509_STORE_set_flags(), X509_STORE_set_purpose(),
|
|
X509_STORE_set_trust(), and X509_STORE_set1_param() set the default values
|
|
for the corresponding values used in certificate chain validation. Their
|
|
behavior is documented in the corresponding B<X509_VERIFY_PARAM> manual
|
|
pages, e.g., L<X509_VERIFY_PARAM_set_depth(3)>.
|
|
|
|
X509_STORE_load_locations() loads trusted certificate(s) into an
|
|
B<X509_STORE> from a given file and/or directory path. It is permitted
|
|
to specify just a file, just a directory, or both paths. The certificates
|
|
in the directory must be in hashed form, as documented in
|
|
L<X509_LOOKUP_hash_dir(3)>.
|
|
|
|
X509_STORE_set_default_paths() is somewhat misnamed, in that it does not
|
|
set what default paths should be used for loading certificates. Instead,
|
|
it loads certificates into the B<X509_STORE> from the hardcoded default
|
|
paths.
|
|
|
|
=head1 RETURN VALUES
|
|
|
|
X509_STORE_add_cert(), X509_STORE_add_crl(), X509_STORE_set_depth(),
|
|
X509_STORE_set_flags(), X509_STORE_set_purpose(),
|
|
X509_STORE_set_trust(), X509_STORE_load_locations(), and
|
|
X509_STORE_set_default_paths() return 1 on success or 0 on failure.
