Req #26076 [Asn->Opn]: openssl_pkcs7_verify should output the verified mail

Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=26076&edit=1 ID: 26076 Updated by: wez@php.net Reported by: ivan dot dolezal at vsb dot cz Summary: openssl_pkcs7_verify should output the verified mail -Status: Assigned +Status: Open Type: Feature/Change Request Package: OpenSSL related Operating System: * PHP Version: * Assigned To: wez Block user comment: N Private report: N Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2011-04-24 19:19:53] mo at nevali dot net openssl_pkcs7_verify does nowadays include an optional parameter to output the cleartext version of the message to a file — HOWEVER, this parameter cannot be used unless the preceding parameters are ALSO used. This is because although they are optional, there is no default value for the $extracerts parameter which can be specified explicitly. The implementation checks to see whether the C string (char * extracerts) is NULL or not, which it will never be if the parameter is actually specified (even if it's a PHP null value, as this will be coerced to the empty string). This is a slightly awkward problem if you don't actually have any extra certificates. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-11-02 04:52:52] wez@php.net Already have plans to implement this. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-11-02 02:17:03] ivan dot dolezal at vsb dot cz Description: ------------ The openssl_pkcs7_verify is able to verify signed e-mail, but I can't get the verified message out of it to process it further. As OpenSSL shell does have this functionality: switch "-text" in... openssl smime -verify -CApath /etc/ssl/certs/ -in signedmessage.txt -text ...outputs the message to STDOUT. Expected result: ---------------- a new optional parametr called by reference in the function openssl_pkcs7_verify, that would output the message from the e-mail Actual result: -------------- Currently there is no (documented) way to get the verified message out of S/MIME. I can verify the message, find out, who signed it (with other functions), but I can't process the message from the mail. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=26076&edit=1
