64 | .Sh DESCRIPTION | ||
65 | .Fn SMIME_read_CMS | ||
66 | parses a message in S/MIME format. | ||
67 | .Pp | ||
68 | .Fa in | ||
69 | is a | ||
70 | .Vt BIO | ||
71 | to read the message from. | ||
72 | .Pp | ||
73 | If cleartext signing is used, then the content is saved in a memory BIO | ||
74 | which is written to | ||
75 | .Pf * Fa bcont ; | ||
76 | otherwise | ||
77 | .Pf * Fa bcont | ||
78 | is set to | ||
79 | .Dv NULL . | ||
80 | .Pp | ||
81 | The parsed | ||
82 | .Vt CMS_ContentInfo | ||
83 | structure is returned, or | ||
84 | .Dv NULL | ||
85 | if an error occurred. | ||
86 | .Pp | ||
87 | If | ||
88 | .Pf * Fa bcont | ||
89 | is not | ||
90 | .Dv NULL , | ||
91 | then the message is clear text signed. | ||
92 | .Pf * Fa bcont | ||
93 | can then be passed to | ||
94 | .Xr CMS_verify 3 | ||
95 | with the | ||
96 | .Dv CMS_DETACHED | ||
97 | flag set. | ||
98 | .Pp | ||
99 | Otherwise the type of the returned structure can be determined using | ||
100 | .Xr CMS_get0_type 3 . | ||
101 | .Pp | ||
102 | To support future functionality if | ||
103 | .Fa bcont | ||
104 | is not | ||
105 | .Dv NULL , | ||
106 | .Pf * Fa bcont | ||
107 | should be initialized to | ||
108 | .Dv NULL . | ||
109 | For example: | ||
110 | .Bd -literal -offset indent | ||
111 | BIO *cont = NULL; | ||
112 | CMS_ContentInfo *cms; | ||
113 | |||
114 | cms = SMIME_read_CMS(in, &cont); | ||
115 | .Ed | ||
116 | .Sh RETURN VALUES | ||
117 | .Fn SMIME_read_CMS | ||
118 | returns a valid | ||
119 | .Vt CMS_ContentInfo | ||
120 | structure or | ||
121 | .Dv NULL | ||
122 | if an error occurred. | ||
123 | The error can be obtained from | ||
124 | .Xr ERR_get_error 3 . | ||

132 | .Sh BUGS | ||
133 | The MIME parser used by | ||
134 | .Fn SMIME_read_CMS | ||
135 | is somewhat primitive. | ||
136 | While it will handle most S/MIME messages, more complex compound formats | ||
137 | may not work. | ||
138 | .Pp | ||
139 | The parser assumes that the | ||
140 | .Vt CMS_ContentInfo | ||
141 | structure is always base64 encoded and will not handle the case | ||
142 | where it is in binary format or uses quoted printable format. | ||
143 | .Pp | ||
144 | The use of a memory BIO to hold the signed content limits the size of | ||
145 | message which can be processed due to memory restraints: a streaming | ||
146 | single pass option should be available. | ||
