PKCS7 Flags/Constants
The S/MIME functions make use of flags which are specified using a
bitfield which can include one or more of the following values:
PKCS7 CONSTANTS
Constant
Description
PKCS7_TEXT
Adds text/plain content type headers to encrypted/signed
message. If decrypting or verifying, it strips those headers from
the output - if the decrypted or verified message is not of MIME type
text/plain then an error will occur.
PKCS7_BINARY
Normally the input message is converted to "canonical" format
which is effectively using CR and LF as end of line: as required by
the S/MIME specification. When this options is present, no
translation occurs. This is useful when handling binary data which
may not be in MIME format.
PKCS7_NOINTERN
When verifying a message, certificates (if
any) included in the message are normally searched for the
signing certificate. With this option only the
certificates specified in the extracerts
parameter of openssl_pkcs7_verify are
used. The supplied certificates can still be used as
untrusted CAs however.
PKCS7_NOVERIFY
Do not verify the signers certificate of a signed
message.
PKCS7_NOCHAIN
Do not chain verification of signers certificates: that is
don't use the certificates in the signed message as untrusted CAs.
PKCS7_NOCERTS
When signing a message the signer's certificate is normally
included - with this option it is excluded. This will reduce the
size of the signed message but the verifier must have a copy of the
signers certificate available locally (passed using the
extracerts to
openssl_pkcs7_verify for example).
PKCS7_NOATTR
Normally when a message is signed, a set of attributes are
included which include the signing time and the supported symmetric
algorithms. With this option they are not included.
PKCS7_DETACHED
When signing a message, use cleartext signing with the MIME
type multipart/signed. This is the default
if you do not specify any flags to
openssl_pkcs7_sign.
If you turn this option off, the message will be signed using
opaque signing, which is more resistant to translation by mail relays
but cannot be read by mail agents that do not support S/MIME.
PKCS7_NOSIGS
Don't try and verify the signatures on a message
These constants were added in 4.0.6.
Signature Algorithms
OPENSSL_ALGO_SHA1
(integer)
Used as default algorithm by openssl_sign and
openssl_verify.
OPENSSL_ALGO_MD5
(integer)
OPENSSL_ALGO_MD4
(integer)
OPENSSL_ALGO_MD2
(integer)
These constants were added in 5.0.0.
