| 32 | .Fn X509_check_trust | ||
| 33 | checks whether the | ||
| 34 | .Fa certificate | ||
| 35 | is marked as trusted for the purpose corresponding to the requested | ||
| 36 | .Fa trust | ||
| 37 | identifier. | ||
| 38 | .Pp | ||
| 39 | The standard algorithm used by all built-in trust checking functions | ||
| 40 | performs the following tests in the following order. | ||
| 41 | The first matching test terminates the algorithm | ||
| 42 | and decides the return value. | ||
| 43 | .Bl -enum | ||
| 44 | .It | ||
| 45 | If | ||
| 46 | .Xr X509_add1_reject_object 3 | ||
| 47 | was previously called on the | ||
| 48 | .Fa certificate | ||
| 49 | with the ASN.1 object identifier corresponding to the requested | ||
| 50 | .Fa trust | ||
| 51 | identifier, | ||
| 52 | .Dv X509_TRUST_REJECTED | ||
| 53 | is returned. | ||
| 54 | .It | ||
| 55 | If | ||
| 56 | .Xr X509_add1_trust_object 3 | ||
| 57 | was previously called on the | ||
| 58 | .Fa certificate | ||
| 59 | with the ASN.1 object identifier corresponding to the requested | ||
| 60 | .Fa trust | ||
| 61 | identifier, | ||
| 62 | .Dv X509_TRUST_TRUSTED | ||
| 63 | is returned. | ||
| 64 | .It | ||
| 65 | If | ||
| 66 | .Xr X509_add1_reject_object 3 | ||
| 67 | or | ||
| 68 | .Xr X509_add1_trust_object 3 | ||
| 69 | were previously called on the | ||
| 70 | .Fa certificate , | ||
| 71 | but neither of them | ||
| 72 | with the ASN.1 object identifier corresponding to the requested | ||
| 73 | .Fa trust | ||
| 74 | identifier, | ||
| 75 | .Dv X509_TRUST_UNTRUSTED | ||
| 76 | is returned. | ||
| 77 | .It | ||
| 78 | This so-called | ||
| 79 | .Dq compatibility | ||
| 80 | step is skipped by some of the trust checking functions. | ||
| 81 | If neither | ||
| 82 | .Xr X509_add1_reject_object 3 | ||
| 83 | nor | ||
| 84 | .Xr X509_add1_trust_object 3 | ||
| 85 | was previously called on the | ||
| 86 | .Fa certificate | ||
| 87 | and if the | ||
| 88 | .Fa certificate | ||
| 89 | is a self-signed, | ||
| 90 | .Dv X509_TRUST_TRUSTED | ||
| 91 | is returned. | ||
| 92 | .It | ||
| 93 | Otherwise, | ||
| 94 | .Dv X509_TRUST_UNTRUSTED | ||
| 95 | is returned. | ||
| 96 | .El | ||
| 97 | .Pp | ||
| 98 | By default, the following | ||
| 99 | .Fa trust | ||
| 100 | identifiers are supported. | ||
| 101 | The | ||
| 102 | .Dq ASN.1 NID | ||
| 103 | column indicates the correspondig ASN.1 object identifier; | ||
| 104 | for the relationship between ASN.1 NIDs and OIDs, see the | ||
| 105 | .Xr OBJ_nid2obj 3 | ||
| 106 | manual page. | ||
| 107 | The | ||
| 108 | .Qq compat | ||
| 109 | column indicates whether the compatibility step in the standard algorithm | ||
| 110 | detailed above is used or skipped. | ||

| 126 | .Pp | ||
| 127 | For the following | ||
| 128 | .Fa trust | ||
| 129 | identifiers, the standard algorithm is modified: | ||
| 130 | .Bl -tag -width Ds | ||
| 131 | .It Dv X509_TRUST_COMPAT | ||
| 132 | .Xr X509_add1_reject_object 3 | ||
| 133 | and | ||
| 134 | .Xr X509_add1_trust_object 3 | ||
| 135 | settings are completely ignored | ||
| 136 | and all steps before the compatibility step are skippped. | ||
| 137 | The | ||
| 138 | .Fa certificate | ||
| 139 | is trusted if and only if it is self-signed. | ||
| 140 | .It 0 | ||
| 141 | The third step in the standard algorithm is skipped, and the | ||
| 142 | compatibility step is used even if | ||
| 143 | .Xr X509_add1_reject_object 3 | ||
| 144 | or | ||
| 145 | .Xr X509_add1_trust_object 3 | ||
| 146 | were called with ASN.1 object identifiers not corresponding to | ||
| 147 | .Dv NID_anyExtendedKeyUsage . | ||
| 148 | .It \-1 | ||
| 149 | The | ||
| 150 | .Fa certificate | ||
| 151 | is not inspected and | ||
| 152 | .Dv X509_TRUST_TRUSTED | ||
| 153 | is always returned. | ||
| 154 | .It invalid | ||
| 155 | If the | ||
| 156 | .Fa trust | ||
| 157 | argument is neither 0 nor \-1 nor valid as a trust identifier, | ||
| 158 | it is re-interpreted as an ASN.1 NID | ||
| 159 | and used itself for the standard algorithm. | ||
| 160 | The compatibility step is skipped in this case. | ||
| 161 | .El | ||
| 162 | .Pp | ||
| 163 | The | ||
| 164 | .Fa flags | ||
| 165 | argument is ignored by all built-in trust checking functions, | ||
| 166 | but user-specified trust checking functions might use it. | ||
| 167 | .Pp | ||
| 168 | If the function | ||
| 169 | .Xr X509_TRUST_add 3 | ||
| 170 | was called before | ||
| 171 | .Fn X509_check_trust , | ||
| 172 | it may have installed different, user-supplied checking functions | ||
| 173 | for some of the standard | ||
| 174 | .Fa trust | ||
| 175 | identifiers listed above, or it may have installed additional, | ||
| 176 | user-supplied checking functions for user-defined | ||
| 177 | .Fa trust | ||
| 178 | identifiers not listed above. | ||
| 179 | .Sh RETURN VALUES | ||
| 180 | .Fn X509_check_trust | ||
| 181 | returns the following values: | ||
| 182 | .Bl -tag -width Ds | ||
| 183 | .It Dv X509_TRUST_TRUSTED | ||
| 184 | The | ||
| 185 | .Fa certificate | ||
| 186 | is explicitly or implicitly trusted for the requested purpose. | ||
| 187 | .It Dv X509_TRUST_REJECTED | ||
| 188 | The | ||
| 189 | .Fa certificate | ||
| 190 | is explicitely rejected for the requested purpose. | ||
| 191 | .It Dv X509_TRUST_UNTRUSTED | ||
| 192 | The | ||
| 193 | .Fa certificate | ||
| 194 | is neither trusted nor explicitely rejected, | ||
| 195 | which implies that it is not trusted. | ||
