X509_LOOKUP_NEW(3) FreeBSD Library Functions Manual X509_LOOKUP_NEW(3) NAME X509_LOOKUP_free, X509_LOOKUP_ctrl, X509_LOOKUP_add_dir, X509_LOOKUP_load_file, X509_LOOKUP_add_mem, X509_get_default_cert_dir, X509_get_default_cert_file, X509_get_default_cert_dir_env, X509_get_default_cert_file_env - certificate lookup object SYNOPSIS #include <openssl/x509_vfy.h> void X509_LOOKUP_free(X509_LOOKUP *lookup); int X509_LOOKUP_ctrl(X509_LOOKUP *lookup, int command, const char *source, long type, char **ret); int X509_LOOKUP_add_dir(X509_LOOKUP *lookup, const char *source, long type); int X509_LOOKUP_load_file(X509_LOOKUP *lookup, const char *source, long type); int X509_LOOKUP_add_mem(X509_LOOKUP *lookup, const struct iovec *source, long type); #include <openssl/x509.h> const char * X509_get_default_cert_dir(void); const char * X509_get_default_cert_file(void); const char * X509_get_default_cert_dir_env(void); const char * X509_get_default_cert_file_env(void); DESCRIPTION X509_LOOKUP_free() is a deprecated function that releases the memory used by lookup. It is provided for compatibility only. If lookup is a NULL pointer, no action occurs. The operation of X509_LOOKUP_ctrl() depends on the X509_LOOKUP_METHOD used by lookup: X509_LOOKUP_hash_dir(3) The command is required to be X509_L_ADD_DIR and the source argument is interpreted as a colon-separated, NUL-terminated list of directory names. These directories are added to an internal list of directories to search for certificate files of the given type. If type is X509_FILETYPE_DEFAULT, the source argument is ignored and /etc/ssl/certs and a type of X509_FILETYPE_PEM are used instead. X509_LOOKUP_add_dir() is a macro that calls X509_LOOKUP_ctrl() with a command of X509_L_ADD_DIR and ret set to NULL. This lookup method is peculiar in so far as calling X509_LOOKUP_ctrl() on a lookup object using it does not yet add any certificates to the associated X509_STORE object. X509_LOOKUP_file(3) The command is required to be X509_L_FILE_LOAD and the source argument is interpreted as a NUL-terminated file name. If the type is X509_FILETYPE_PEM, the file is read with BIO_new_file(3) and PEM_X509_INFO_read_bio(3) and the certificates and revocation lists found are added to the X509_STORE object associated with lookup using X509_STORE_add_cert(3) and X509_STORE_add_crl(3). If type is X509_FILETYPE_DEFAULT, the source argument is ignored and /etc/ssl/certs.pem and a type of X509_FILETYPE_PEM are used instead. If type is X509_FILETYPE_ASN1, the file is read with d2i_X509_bio(3) and the single certificate is added to the X509_STORE object associated with lookup using X509_STORE_add_cert(3). X509_LOOKUP_load_file() is a macro calling X509_LOOKUP_ctrl() with a command of X509_L_FILE_LOAD and ret set to NULL. X509_LOOKUP_mem(3) The command and type are required to be X509_L_MEM and X509_FILETYPE_PEM, respectively. The source argument is interpreted as a pointer to an iovec structure defined in <sys/uio.h>. The memory area described by that structure is read with BIO_new_mem_buf(3) and PEM_X509_INFO_read_bio(3) and the certificates and revocation lists found are added to the X509_STORE object associated with lookup using X509_STORE_add_cert(3) and X509_STORE_add_crl(3). X509_LOOKUP_add_mem() is a macro calling X509_LOOKUP_ctrl() with a command of X509_L_MEM and ret set to NULL. With LibreSSL, X509_LOOKUP_ctrl() always ignores the ret argument. If the type is X509_LU_X509, it searches the configured directories for files having that name, with a file name extension that is a small, non- negative decimal integer starting at ".0". These files are read with X509_load_cert_file(3). In each directory, the search is ended once a file with the expected name and extension does not exists. If the type is X509_LU_CRL, the file name extensions are expected to have a prefix of "r", i.e. they start with ".r0", and the files are read with X509_load_crl_file(3). In case of success, the first match is returned in the *object provided by the caller, overwriting any previous content. RETURN VALUES X509_LOOKUP_ctrl() returns 1 for success or 0 for failure. With library implementations other than LibreSSL, it might also return -1 for internal errors. X509_get_default_cert_dir() returns a pointer to the constant string "/etc/ssl/certs", X509_get_default_cert_file() to "/etc/ssl/certs.pem", X509_get_default_cert_dir_env() to "SSL_CERT_DIR", and X509_get_default_cert_file_env() to "SSL_CERT_FILE". ENVIRONMENT For reasons of security and simplicity, LibreSSL ignores the environment variables SSL_CERT_DIR and SSL_CERT_FILE, but other library implementations may use their contents instead of the standard locations for trusted certificates, and a few third-party application programs also inspect these variables directly and may pass their values to X509_LOOKUP_add_dir() and X509_LOOKUP_load_file(). FILES /etc/ssl/certs/ default directory for storing trusted certificates /etc/ssl/certs.pem default file for storing trusted certificates ERRORS The following diagnostics can be retrieved with ERR_get_error(3), ERR_GET_REASON(3), and ERR_reason_error_string(3): ERR_R_ASN1_LIB "ASN1 lib" d2i_X509_bio(3) failed in X509_LOOKUP_ctrl(). X509_R_BAD_X509_FILETYPE "bad x509 filetype" X509_LOOKUP_ctrl() was called with an invalid type. ERR_R_BUF_LIB "BUF lib" Memory allocation failed. X509_R_INVALID_DIRECTORY "invalid directory" The source argument of X509_LOOKUP_ctrl() with X509_L_ADD_DIR or X509_LOOKUP_add_dir() was NULL or an empty string. X509_R_LOADING_CERT_DIR "loading cert dir" X509_LOOKUP_ctrl() with X509_L_ADD_DIR or X509_LOOKUP_add_dir() was called with X509_FILETYPE_DEFAULT and adding the default directories failed. This error is added after and in addition to a more specific diagnostic. X509_R_LOADING_DEFAULTS "loading defaults" X509_LOOKUP_ctrl() with X509_L_FILE_LOAD or X509_LOOKUP_load_file() was called with X509_FILETYPE_DEFAULT and adding the certificates and revocation lists failed. This error is added after and in addition to a more specific diagnostic. ERR_R_MALLOC_FAILURE "malloc failure" Memory allocation failed. ERR_R_PEM_LIB "PEM lib" PEM_X509_INFO_read_bio(3), PEM_read_bio_X509_AUX(3), or PEM_read_bio_X509_CRL(3) failed in X509_LOOKUP_ctrl(). ERR_R_SYS_LIB "system lib" BIO_new(3), BIO_new_file(3), or BIO_read_filename(3) failed in X509_LOOKUP_ctrl(). X509_R_WRONG_LOOKUP_TYPE "wrong lookup type" X509_STORE_CTX_get_by_subject(3) was called with an invalid type. Passing an invalid command to X509_LOOKUP_ctrl() causes failure but provides no diagnostics.

X509_LOOKUP_add_mem() first appeared in OpenBSD 5.7. The other functions first appeared in SSLeay 0.8.0 and have been available since OpenBSD 2.4. BUGS If the type is X509_FILETYPE_DEFAULT or X509_FILETYPE_PEM, X509_LOOKUP_ctrl() with X509_L_FILE_LOAD and X509_LOOKUP_load_file() silently ignore failure of X509_STORE_add_cert(3) and X509_STORE_add_crl(3) and indicate success anyway. Handling of a NULL source is inconsistent for X509_LOOKUP_ctrl() with X509_L_FILE_LOAD and for X509_LOOKUP_load_file(). With X509_FILETYPE_PEM, it causes failure, but with X509_FILETYPE_ASN1, no action occurs and success is indicated. When called on a lookup object using X509_LOOKUP_mem(3), X509_LOOKUP_ctrl() raises ERR_R_PEM_LIB when called with an invalid command or type, when BIO_new_mem_buf(3) fails, when source contains zero objects, or when X509_STORE_add_cert(3) fails on the first object encountered, which is all inconsistent with the behaviour of the other lookup methods.
