| =head1 NAME |
| |
| PKCS7_decrypt - decrypt content from a PKCS#7 envelopedData structure |
| |
| =head1 SYNOPSIS |
| |
| #include <openssl/pkcs7.h> |
| |
| int PKCS7_decrypt(PKCS7 *p7, EVP_PKEY *pkey, X509 *cert, BIO *data, int flags); |
| |
| =head1 DESCRIPTION |
| |
| PKCS7_decrypt() extracts and decrypts the content from a PKCS#7 envelopedData |
| structure. B<pkey> is the private key of the recipient, B<cert> is the |
| recipients certificate, B<data> is a BIO to write the content to and |
| B<flags> is an optional set of flags. |
| |
| =head1 NOTES |
| |
| Although the recipients certificate is not needed to decrypt the data it is needed |
| to locate the appropriate (of possible several) recipients in the PKCS#7 structure. |
| |
| The following flags can be passed in the B<flags> parameter. |
| |
| If the B<PKCS7_TEXT> flag is set MIME headers for type B<text/plain> are deleted |
| from the content. If the content is not of type B<text/plain> then an error is |
| returned. |
| |
| =head1 RETURN VALUES |
| |
| PKCS7_decrypt() returns either 1 for success or 0 for failure. |
| The error can be obtained from ERR_get_error(3) |
| |
| =head1 BUGS |
| |
| PKCS7_decrypt() must be passed the correct recipient key and certificate. It would |
| be better if it could look up the correct key and certificate from a database. |
| |
| The lack of single pass processing and need to hold all data in memory as |
| mentioned in PKCS7_sign() also applies to PKCS7_verify(). |
