openssl_verify -- Verify signature
Description
int openssl_verify (string data, string signature, mixed pub_key_id)
| Warning |
This function is EXPERIMENTAL. That means, that the behaviour of this function, this function name, in concreto ANYTHING documented here can change in a future release of PHP WITHOUT NOTICE. Be warned, and use this function at your own risk. |
Returns 1 if the signature is correct, 0 if it is incorrect, and
-1 on error.
openssl_verify() verifies that the
signature is correct for the specified
data using the public key associated with
pub_key_id. This must be the public key
corresponding to the private key used for signing.
Example 1. openssl_verify() example
// $data and $signature are assumed to contain the data and the signature
// fetch public key from certificate and ready it
$fp = fopen("/src/openssl-0.9.6/demos/sign/cert.pem", "r");
$cert = fread($fp, 8192);
fclose($fp);
$pubkeyid = openssl_get_publickey($cert);
// state whether signature is okay or not
$ok = openssl_verify($data, $signature, $pubkeyid);
if ($ok == 1)
echo "good";
elseif ($ok == 0)
echo "bad";
else
echo "ugly, error checking signature";
// free the key from memory
openssl_free_key($pubkeyid);
