DESCRIPTION
Signed Certificate Timestamps (SCTs) are defined by RFC 6962, Section
3.2. They constitute a promise by a Certificate Transparency (CT) log
to publicly record a certificate. By cryptographically verifying that a
log did indeed issue an SCT, some confidence can be gained that the
certificate is publicly known.
An internal representation of an SCT can be created in one of two ways.
The first option is to create a blank SCT, using SCT_new(), and then
populate it using:
o SCT_set_version() to set the SCT version.
Only SCT_VERSION_V1 is currently supported.
o SCT_set_log_entry_type() to set the type of certificate the SCT was
issued for:
CT_LOG_ENTRY_TYPE_X509 for a normal certificate.
CT_LOG_ENTRY_TYPE_PRECERT for a pre-certificate.
o SCT_set0_log_id() or SCT_set1_log_id() to set the LogID of the CT log
that the SCT came from.
The former takes ownership, whereas the latter makes a copy. See RFC
6962, Section 3.2 for the definition of LogID.
o SCT_set_timestamp() to set the time the SCT was issued (time in
milliseconds since the Unix Epoch).
o SCT_set_signature_nid() to set the NID of the signature.
o SCT_set0_signature() or SCT_set1_signature() to set the raw signature
value.
The former takes ownership, whereas the latter makes a copy.
o SCT_set0_extensions() or SCT_set1_extensions to provide SCT
extensions.
The former takes ownership, whereas the latter makes a copy.
Alternatively, the SCT can be pre-populated from the following data
using SCT_new_from_base64():
o The SCT version (only SCT_VERSION_V1 is currently supported).
o The LogID (see RFC 6962, Section 3.2), base64 encoded.
o The type of certificate the SCT was issued for:
CT_LOG_ENTRY_TYPE_X509 for a normal certificate.
CT_LOG_ENTRY_TYPE_PRECERT for a pre-certificate.
SCT_set_source() can be used to record where the SCT was found (TLS
extension, X.509 certificate extension or OCSP response). This is not
required for verifying the SCT.
NOTES
Some of the setters return int, instead of void. These will all return
1 on success, 0 on failure. They will not make changes on failure.
All of the setters will reset the validation status of the SCT to
SCT_VALIDATION_STATUS_NOT_SET (see SCT_validate(3)).
SCT_set_source() will call SCT_set_log_entry_type() if the type of
certificate the SCT was issued for can be inferred from where the SCT
was found. For example, an SCT found in an X.509 extension must have
been issued for a pre- certificate.
SCT_set_source() will not refuse unknown values.
RETURN VALUES
SCT_set_version() returns 1 if the specified version is supported, 0
otherwise.
SCT_set_log_entry_type() returns 1 if the specified log entry type is
supported, 0 otherwise.
SCT_set0_log_id() and SCT_set1_log_id return 1 if the specified LogID
is a valid SHA-256 hash, 0 otherwise. Additionally, SCT_set1_log_id
returns 0 if malloc fails.
SCT_set_signature_nid returns 1 if the specified NID is supported, 0
otherwise.
SCT_set1_extensions and SCT_set1_signature return 1 if the supplied
buffer is copied successfully, 0 otherwise (i.e. if malloc fails).
SCT_set_source returns 1 on success, 0 otherwise.
