The values returned are internal pointers which \fBMUST NOT\fR be freed up after the call. .PP \&\fBX509_set0_signature()\fR and \fBX509_REQ_set1_signature_algo()\fR are the equivalent setters for the two values of \fBX509_get0_signature()\fR. .PP \&\fBX509_get0_tbs_sigalg()\fR returns the signature algorithm in the signed portion of \fBx\fR. .PP \&\fBX509_get_signature_nid()\fR returns the NID corresponding to the signature algorithm of \fBx\fR. .PP \&\fBX509_REQ_get0_signature()\fR, \fBX509_REQ_get_signature_nid()\fR \&\fBX509_CRL_get0_signature()\fR and \fBX509_CRL_get_signature_nid()\fR perform the same function for certificate requests and CRLs. .PP \&\fBX509_ACERT_get0_signature()\fR, \fBX509_ACERT_get_signature_nid()\fR and \&\fBX509_ACERT_get0_info_sigalg()\fR perform the same function for attribute certificates. .PP \&\fBX509_get_signature_info()\fR retrieves information about the signature of certificate \fBx\fR. The NID of the signing digest is written to \fB*mdnid\fR, the public key algorithm to \fB*pknid\fR, the effective security bits to \&\fB*secbits\fR and flag details to \fB*flags\fR. Any of the parameters can be set to \fBNULL\fR if the information is not required. .PP \&\fBX509_SIG_INFO_get()\fR and \fBX509_SIG_INFO_set()\fR get and set information about a signature in an \fBX509_SIG_INFO\fR structure. They are only used by implementations of algorithms which need to set custom signature information: most applications will never need to call them. .SH NOTES .IX Header "NOTES" These functions provide lower level access to signatures in certificates where an application wishes to analyse or generate a signature in a form where \fBX509_sign()\fR et al is not appropriate (for example a non standard or unsupported format). .PP The security bits returned by \fBX509_get_signature_info()\fR refers to information available from the certificate signature (such as the signing digest). In some cases the actual security of the signature is less because the signing key is less secure: for example a certificate signed using SHA\-512 and a 1024 bit RSA key. .SH "RETURN VALUES" .IX Header "RETURN VALUES" \&\fBX509_get_signature_nid()\fR, \fBX509_REQ_get_signature_nid()\fR and \&\fBX509_CRL_get_signature_nid()\fR return a NID. .PP \&\fBX509_get0_signature()\fR, \fBX509_REQ_get0_signature()\fR and \&\fBX509_CRL_get0_signature()\fR do not return values. .PP \&\fBX509_get_signature_info()\fR returns 1 if the signature information returned is valid or 0 if the information is not available (e.g. unknown algorithms or malformed parameters). .PP \&\fBX509_REQ_set1_signature_algo()\fR returns 0 on success; or 1 on an error (e.g. null ALGO pointer). X509_REQ_set0_signature does not return an error value. .SH "SEE ALSO" .IX Header "SEE ALSO" \&\fBd2i_X509\fR\|(3), \&\fBERR_get_error\fR\|(3), \&\fBX509_CRL_get0_by_serial\fR\|(3), \&\fBX509_get_ext_d2i\fR\|(3), \&\fBX509_get_extension_flags\fR\|(3), \&\fBX509_get_pubkey\fR\|(3), \&\fBX509_get_subject_name\fR\|(3), \&\fBX509_get_version\fR\|(3), \&\fBX509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt\fR\|(3), \&\fBX509_NAME_ENTRY_get_object\fR\|(3), \&\fBX509_NAME_get_index_by_NID\fR\|(3), \&\fBX509_NAME_print_ex\fR\|(3), \&\fBX509_new\fR\|(3), \&\fBX509_sign\fR\|(3), \&\fBX509V3_get_d2i\fR\|(3), \&\fBX509_verify_cert\fR\|(3) .SH HISTORY .IX Header "HISTORY" The \&\fBX509_get0_signature()\fR and \fBX509_get_signature_nid()\fR functions were added in OpenSSL 1.0.2. .PP The \&\fBX509_REQ_get0_signature()\fR, \fBX509_REQ_get_signature_nid()\fR, \&\fBX509_CRL_get0_signature()\fR and \fBX509_CRL_get_signature_nid()\fR were added in OpenSSL 1.1.0. .PP The \fBX509_REQ_set0_signature()\fR and \fBX509_REQ_set1_signature_algo()\fR were added in OpenSSL 1.1.1e. .PP The \fBX509_ACERT_get0_signature()\fR, \fBX509_ACERT_get0_info_sigalg()\fR and \&\fBX509_ACERT_get_signature_nid()\fR functions were added in OpenSSL 3.4. .SH COPYRIGHT .IX Header "COPYRIGHT" Copyright 2015\-2024 The OpenSSL Project Authors.
