SCT_VALIDATE(3) OpenSSL SCT_VALIDATE(3) NAME SCT_validate, SCT_LIST_validate, SCT_get_validation_status - checks Signed Certificate Timestamps (SCTs) are valid SYNOPSIS #include <openssl/ct.h> typedef enum { SCT_VALIDATION_STATUS_NOT_SET, SCT_VALIDATION_STATUS_UNKNOWN_LOG, SCT_VALIDATION_STATUS_VALID, SCT_VALIDATION_STATUS_INVALID, SCT_VALIDATION_STATUS_UNVERIFIED, SCT_VALIDATION_STATUS_UNKNOWN_VERSION } sct_validation_status_t; int SCT_validate(SCT *sct, const CT_POLICY_EVAL_CTX *ctx); int SCT_LIST_validate(const STACK_OF(SCT) *scts, CT_POLICY_EVAL_CTX *ctx); sct_validation_status_t SCT_get_validation_status(const SCT *sct); DESCRIPTION SCT_validate() will check that an SCT is valid and verify its signature. SCT_LIST_validate() performs the same checks on an entire stack of SCTs. The result of the validation checks can be obtained by passing the SCT to SCT_get_validation_status(). A CT_POLICY_EVAL_CTX must be provided that specifies: o The certificate the SCT was issued for. Failure to provide the certificate will result in the validation status being SCT_VALIDATION_STATUS_UNVERIFIED. o The issuer of that certificate. This is only required if the SCT was issued for a pre-certificate (see RFC 6962). If it is required but not provided, the validation status will be SCT_VALIDATION_STATUS_UNVERIFIED. o A CTLOG_STORE that contains the CT log that issued this SCT. If the SCT was issued by a log that is not in this CTLOG_STORE, the validation status will be SCT_VALIDATION_STATUS_UNKNOWN_LOG. If the SCT is of an unsupported version (only v1 is currently supported), the validation status will be SCT_VALIDATION_STATUS_UNKNOWN_VERSION. If the SCT's signature is incorrect, its timestamp is in the future (relative to the time in CT_POLICY_EVAL_CTX), or if it is otherwise invalid, the validation status will be SCT_VALIDATION_STATUS_INVALID. If all checks pass, the validation status will be SCT_VALIDATION_STATUS_VALID. NOTES A return value of 0 from SCT_LIST_validate() should not be interpreted as a failure. At a minimum, only one valid SCT may provide sufficient confidence that a certificate has been publicly logged. RETURN VALUES SCT_validate() returns a negative integer if an internal error occurs, 0 if the SCT fails validation, or 1 if the SCT passes validation. SCT_LIST_validate() returns a negative integer if an internal error occurs, 0 if any of SCTs fails validation, or 1 if they all pass validation. SCT_get_validation_status() returns the validation status of the SCT. If SCT_validate() or SCT_LIST_validate() have not been passed that SCT, the returned value will be SCT_VALIDATION_STATUS_NOT_SET.
