    | LXXI. OpenSSL functions| Attenzione |  | Questo modulo �
SPERIMENTALE. Ovvero, il comportamento di queste
funzioni, i nomi di queste funzioni, in definitiva tutto ci� 
che � documentato qui pu� cambiare nei futuri rilasci 
del PHP senza preavviso. Siete avvisati, l'uso di questo modulo 
� a vostro rischio. | 
Introduzione
     This module uses the functions of  for generation and verification
     of signatures and for sealing (encrypting) and opening (decrypting)
     data. OpenSSL offers many features that this module currently doesn't
     support. Some of these may be added in the future.
    Requisiti
     In order to use the OpenSSL functions you need to install the  package.
     PHP-4.0.4pl1 requires OpenSSL >= 0.9.6, but PHP-4.0.5 and greater
     will also work with OpenSSL >= 0.9.5.
    Istallazione
     To use PHP's OpenSSL support you must also compile PHP --with-openssl[=DIR].
    Configurazione RuntimeQuesta estensione non definisce
alcuna direttiva di configurazioneKey/Certificate parameters
     Quite a few of the openssl functions require a key or a certificate
     parameter. PHP 4.0.5 and earlier have to use a key or certificate
     resource returned by one of the openssl_get_xxx functions.
     Later versions may use one of the following methods:
      
        Certificates
         
           An X.509 resource returned from
           openssl_x509_read()
          A string having the format
           file://path/to/cert.pem; the named file must
           contain a PEM encoded certificate
          
           A string containing the content of a certificate, PEM encoded
          
        Public/Private Keys
         A key resource returned from
           openssl_get_publickey() or
           openssl_get_privatekey()
          For public keys only: an X.509 resourceA string having the format
           file://path/to/file.pem - the named file must
           contain a PEM encoded certificate/private key (it may contain both)
          
           A string containing the content of a certificate/key, PEM encoded
          
           For private keys, you may also use the syntax
           array($key, $passphrase) where $key represents a
           key specified using the file:// or textual content notation above, and
           $passphrase represents a string containing the passphrase for that
           private key
          
Certificate Verification
     When calling a function that will verify a signature/certificate, the
     cainfo parameter is an array containing file and
     directory names that specify the locations of trusted CA files. If a
     directory is specified, then it must be a correctly formed hashed
     directory as the openssl command would use.
    Costanti Predefinite
Queste costanti sono definite da questa estensione e 
sono disponibili solo se l'estensione � stata compilata
nel PHP o se � stata caricata dinamicamente a runtime.
 PKCS7 Flags/Constants
    The S/MIME functions make use of flags which are specified using a
    bitfield which can include one or more of the following values:
     Tabella 1. PKCS7 CONSTANTS | Constant | Description | 
|---|
 | PKCS7_TEXT | adds text/plain content type headers to encrypted/signed
         message. If decrypting or verifying, it strips those headers from
         the output - if the decrypted or verified message is not of MIME type
         text/plain then an error will occur. |  | PKCS7_BINARY | normally the input message is converted to "canonical" format
         which is effectively using CR and LF as end of line: as required by
         the S/MIME specification.  When this options is present, no
         translation occurs.  This is useful when handling binary data which
         may not be in MIME format. |  | PKCS7_NOINTERN | when verifying a message, certificates (if
           any) included in the message are normally searched for the
           signing certificate. With this option only the
           certificates specified in the extracerts
           parameter of openssl_pkcs7_verify() are
           used.  The supplied certificates can still be used as
           untrusted CAs however. |  | PKCS7_NOVERIFY | do not verify the signers certificate of a signed
         message. |  | PKCS7_NOCHAIN | do not chain verification of signers certificates: that is
         don't use the certificates in the signed message as untrusted CAs. |  | PKCS7_NOCERTS | when signing a message the signer's certificate is normally
         included - with this option it is excluded.  This will reduce the
         size of the signed message but the verifier must have a copy of the
         signers certificate available locally (passed using the
         extracerts to
         openssl_pkcs7_verify() for example. |  | PKCS7_NOATTR | normally when a message is signed, a set of attributes are
         included which include the signing time and the supported symmetric
         algorithms.  With this option they are not included. |  | PKCS7_DETACHED | When signing a message, use cleartext signing with the MIME
         type multipart/signed.  This is the default if the
         flags parameter to
         openssl_pkcs7_sign() if you do not specify any
         flags. If you turn this option off, the message will be signed using
         opaque signing, which is more resistant to translation by mail relays
         but cannot be read by mail agents that do not support S/MIME. |  | PKCS7_NOSIGS | Don't try and verify the signatures on a message | 
Nota: These constants were added in 4.0.6.

 |  | I had a hard time to make OpenSSL extension to load on Win98+Apache
1.3.17+Php4.0.4pl1.
Always complained about missing
extension.
 
 Eventually I found this page:
 
 and
there was the magic: One seems to need the files "libeay32.dll"
and "ssleay32.dll" in system32 directory.
 
 You can get
them from
 download
an apache .zip file, for example
"Apache_1.3.19-Mod_SSL_2.8.2-OpenSSL_0.9.6-WIN32.zip", extract
it, and copy the mentioned files from that Apache directory.
 
 At
least phpinfo() says OpenSSL as loaded extension. Now I can start to
 play with it :)

 |  | PHP 4.0.5 and OpenSSL
 if you got an error message where php
complains about missing dlls, copy all files from /php/dll directory to
your windows/system(32) directory.
 If it still can't load because the
MSVCR70.DLL is missing (not provided with the release found on this page),
go to this link, download it and place it in
windows/system(32).

 |  | in trying to install the win32 extensions php_curl and php_openssl with php
loaded as an apache module. Starting apache said that. it could not load
the libraries due to missing dlls, i check the existence of the dlls in
the php/dll directory and pasted them everywhere i could think imginable.
the promlem lay in the php.ini file, for what ever reason the
extension_dir was chanegd to the dir of my php install
"./newphp" i changed it to the correct
"c:\windows\system" and it worked beautifully, now if i could
only get mcrypt to work.

 |  | Why not PHP use openSSL's BIGNUM library to replace the liscensed BCMath
functions? This does not seems very hard to do!
 |  |

 |  | The BCMath library has been released under the LGPL

 |  | Can someone please post a "howto" or "getting started"
for the openssl + php?  I'd like to encrypt data in my database with a
public key, and later, decrypt this with an off-site private
key.
 The only thing I have done so far is recompile PHP with ssl
support.  And the 'openssl' command on my rh7.3 linux system is short on
the documentation.
 
 Thanks
 John
