TS_VERIFY_CTX_SET_CERTS(3ossl) OpenSSL TS_VERIFY_CTX_SET_CERTS(3ossl)
NAME
TS_VERIFY_CTX_set_certs, TS_VERIFY_CTS_set_certs - set certificates for
TS response verification
SYNOPSIS
#include <openssl/ts.h>
STACK_OF(X509) *TS_VERIFY_CTX_set_certs(TS_VERIFY_CTX *ctx,
STACK_OF(X509) *certs);
STACK_OF(X509) *TS_VERIFY_CTS_set_certs(TS_VERIFY_CTX *ctx,
STACK_OF(X509) *certs);
DESCRIPTION
The Time-Stamp Protocol (TSP) is defined by RFC 3161. TSP is a protocol
used to provide long term proof of the existence of a certain datum
before a particular time. TSP defines a Time Stamping Authority (TSA)
and an entity who shall make requests to the TSA. Usually the TSA is
denoted as the server side and the requesting entity is denoted as the
client.
In TSP, when a server is sending a response to a client, the server
normally needs to sign the response data - the TimeStampToken (TST) -
with its private key. Then the client shall verify the received TST by
the server's certificate chain.
TS_VERIFY_CTX_set_certs() is used to set the server's certificate chain
when verifying a TST. ctx is the verification context created in
advance and certs is a stack of X509 certificates.
TS_VERIFY_CTS_set_certs() is a misspelled version of
TS_VERIFY_CTX_set_certs() which takes the same parameters and returns
the same result.
RETURN VALUES
TS_VERIFY_CTX_set_certs() returns the stack of X509 certificates the
user passes in via parameter certs.

HISTORY
The spelling of TS_VERIFY_CTX_set_certs() was corrected in OpenSSL
3.0.0. The misspelled version TS_VERIFY_CTS_set_certs() has been
retained for compatibility reasons, but it is deprecated in OpenSSL
3.0.0.
