note 111336 added to function.openssl-pkcs7-sign

A note about the $flags parameter: PKCS7_BINARY has 2 effects: * converts LF to CR+LF, as described in http://www.php.net/manual/en/openssl.pkcs7.flags.php * it creates an opaque pkcs7 signature (p7m) If you want to prevent the LF->CR+LF conversion *and* still have a detached signature (p7s), use PKCS7_BINARY | PKCS7_DETACHED (both flags are set). If the signed message is already MIME multi-part, using both flags as described above seems to be the right solution to assemble the message properly. Without any flags, apparently only some of the LF characters are converted. In a specific scenario (the local MTA is Postfix and then the message goes through sendmail on another machine), the MIME boundaries get scrambled in sendmail. However, this doesn't seem to happen if the local MTA is sendmail. ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.199 Probable Submitter: 83.166.214.174 ---- Manual Page -- http://php.net/manual/en/function.openssl-pkcs7-sign.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/111336 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/111336/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/111336/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/111336/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/111336/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/111336/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/111336/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/111336 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/111336 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
