5 RSA_sign, RSA_verify - RSA signatures
9 #include <openssl/rsa.h>
11 The following functions have been deprecated since OpenSSL 3.0, and can be
12 hidden entirely by defining B<OPENSSL_API_COMPAT> with a suitable version value,
13 see L<openssl_user_macros(7)>:
15 int RSA_sign(int type, const unsigned char *m, unsigned int m_len,
16 unsigned char *sigret, unsigned int *siglen, RSA *rsa);
18 int RSA_verify(int type, const unsigned char *m, unsigned int m_len,
19 unsigned char *sigbuf, unsigned int siglen, RSA *rsa);
23 All of the functions described on this page are deprecated.
24 Applications should instead use L<EVP_PKEY_sign_init(3)>, L<EVP_PKEY_sign(3)>,
25 L<EVP_PKEY_verify_init(3)> and L<EVP_PKEY_verify(3)>.
27 RSA_sign() signs the message digest B<m> of size B<m_len> using the
28 private key B<rsa> using RSASSA-PKCS1-v1_5 as specified in RFC 3447. It
29 stores the signature in B<sigret> and the signature size in B<siglen>.
30 B<sigret> must point to RSA_size(B<rsa>) bytes of memory.
31 Note that PKCS #1 adds meta-data, placing limits on the size of the
33 See L<RSA_private_encrypt(3)> for lower-level
36 B<type> denotes the message digest algorithm that was used to generate
38 If B<type> is B<NID_md5_sha1>,
39 an SSL signature (MD5 and SHA1 message digests with PKCS #1 padding
40 and no algorithm identifier) is created.
42 RSA_verify() verifies that the signature B<sigbuf> of size B<siglen>
43 matches a given message digest B<m> of size B<m_len>. B<type> denotes
44 the message digest algorithm that was used to generate the signature.
45 B<rsa> is the signer's public key.
49 RSA_sign() returns 1 on success and 0 for failure.
50 RSA_verify() returns 1 on successful verification and 0 for failure.
52 The error codes can be obtained by L<ERR_get_error(3)>.
61 L<RSA_private_encrypt(3)>,
62 L<RSA_public_decrypt(3)>
