RSA_SIGN_ASN1_OCTET_STRING(3ossl) OpenSSL RSA_SIGN_ASN1_OCTET_STRING(3ossl)
NAME
RSA_sign_ASN1_OCTET_STRING, RSA_verify_ASN1_OCTET_STRING - RSA
signatures
SYNOPSIS
#include <openssl/rsa.h>
The following functions have been deprecated since OpenSSL 3.0, and can
be hidden entirely by defining OPENSSL_API_COMPAT with a suitable
version value, see openssl_user_macros(7):
int RSA_sign_ASN1_OCTET_STRING(int dummy, unsigned char *m,
unsigned int m_len, unsigned char *sigret,
unsigned int *siglen, RSA *rsa);
int RSA_verify_ASN1_OCTET_STRING(int dummy, unsigned char *m,
unsigned int m_len, unsigned char *sigbuf,
unsigned int siglen, RSA *rsa);
DESCRIPTION
All of the functions described on this page are deprecated.
Applications should instead use EVP PKEY APIs.
RSA_sign_ASN1_OCTET_STRING() signs the octet string m of size m_len
using the private key rsa represented in DER using PKCS #1 padding. It
stores the signature in sigret and the signature size in siglen. sigret
must point to RSA_size(rsa) bytes of memory.
dummy is ignored.
The random number generator must be seeded when calling
RSA_sign_ASN1_OCTET_STRING(). If the automatic seeding or reseeding of
the OpenSSL CSPRNG fails due to external circumstances (see RAND(7)),
the operation will fail.
RSA_verify_ASN1_OCTET_STRING() verifies that the signature sigbuf of
size siglen is the DER representation of a given octet string m of size
m_len. dummy is ignored. rsa is the signer's public key.
RETURN VALUES
RSA_sign_ASN1_OCTET_STRING() returns 1 on success, 0 otherwise.
RSA_verify_ASN1_OCTET_STRING() returns 1 on successful verification, 0
otherwise.
The error codes can be obtained by ERR_get_error(3).
BUGS
These functions serve no recognizable purpose.

HISTORY
All of these functions were deprecated in OpenSSL 3.0.
