I'm at the moment realizing an S/Mime decryption using PHP. What i got so far:
$keys = array("public"=>$atm."/public-keys/".$usr.".smime",
"private"=>$atm."/private-keys/".$usr.".smime");
if(!file_exists($keys["public"])) die("Public Key not found");
if(!file_exists($keys["private"])) die("Private Key not found");
$public = file_get_contents($keys["public"]);
$private = file_get_contents($keys["private"]);
switch($_GET["debug"])
{
case "encrypt":
{
$outfile = realpath("demo-msg/out.txt");
$outfile_signed = realpath("demo-msg/out.signed.txt");
$infile = realpath("demo-msg/in.txt");
file_put_contents($infile,$msg);
$adddata = array("To" => "XXX", "From: Demo Name <XXX>", "Subject" => "Demo Subject");
if (openssl_pkcs7_encrypt($infile, $outfile, $public, $adddata))
{
//$info = file_get_contents($outfile);
echo "winenc & transfer<br>
";
file_put_contents($infile, file_get_contents($outfile));
//if(openssl_pkcs7_sign($outfile,$outfile_signed,$public,$private,$adddata, PKCS7_BINARY)) echo "winsign";
//else echo "failsign";
}
else echo "Failed Encryption";
exit;
}
default:
{
$outfile2 = realpath("demo-msg/out2.txt");
$outfile = realpath("demo-msg/out.txt");
$infile = realpath("demo-msg/smime.p7m");
//$infile = realpath("demo-msg/in.txt");
if(openssl_pkcs7_verify($infile)) echo "verified<br>
"; //tried: openssl_pkcs7_verify($infile,$PKCS7_DETACHED, tmpfile(), array(), array(), $outfile)
else die("invalid sig");
if(openssl_pkcs7_decrypt($infile, $outfile2, $public, $private)) //tried: openssl_pkcs7_decrypt($outfile, $outfile2, $public, $private)
{
echo "dec win:".file_get_contents($outfile2);
}
else echo "Oh oh! Decryption failed!";
exit;
}
}
What this snippet already can do:
Now, i want to decrypt messages that are signed too (as it's usually one step). The Problem:
Nevertheless, i don't have any clues what can be wrong with the second attempt. ANy help would be appreciated!
Speaking to myself.
Errors i made in the script:
What i misunderstood was the way, signatures are processed (and verifications are made). I assumed the message gets encrypted, then signed. It can be that way, but a lot of tools, including Office2010 first sign the message, then encrypt it. That way you can't check the signature before decrypting and have to de-sign after the decryption.
You can see my debugging-code that works down below. This will help you with your decryption problems when stumbling upon this thread.
$test = openssl_pkcs7_verify($infile, PKCS7_DETACHED ); //just to see that it doesn't work
echo "signature is ".$test."
<br>".openssl_error_string();
$dec = openssl_pkcs7_decrypt($infile, $outfile, $public, $private);
echo "<br><br>
dec is ".$dec."
<br>".openssl_error_string()."
<br>".file_get_contents($outfile);
$test = openssl_pkcs7_verify($outfile, PKCS7_DETACHED, $tmp, array(), $tmp, $outfile2 );
echo "<br><br>
signature2 is ".$test."
<br>".openssl_error_string()."
<br>".file_get_contents($outfile2);
