<h1 id="DESCRIPTION">DESCRIPTION</h1>

<p>X509_STORE_CTX_set_verify_cb() sets the verification callback of <b>ctx</b> to <b>verify_cb</b> overwriting any existing callback.</p>

<p>The verification callback can be used to customise the operation of certificate verification, either by overriding error conditions or logging errors for debugging purposes.</p>

<p>However, a verification callback is <b>not</b> essential and the default operation is often sufficient.</p>

<p>The <b>ok</b> parameter to the callback indicates the value the callback should return to retain the default behaviour. If it is zero then an error condition is indicated. If it is 1 then no error occurred. If the flag <b>X509_V_FLAG_NOTIFY_POLICY</b> is set then <b>ok</b> is set to 2 to indicate the policy checking is complete.</p>

<p>The <b>ctx</b> parameter to the callback is the <b>X509_STORE_CTX</b> structure that is performing the verification operation. A callback can examine this structure and receive additional information about the error, for example by calling X509_STORE_CTX_get_current_cert(). Additional application data can be passed to the callback via the <b>ex_data</b> mechanism.</p>

<p>X509_STORE_CTX_get_verify_cb() returns the value of the current callback for the specific <b>ctx</b>.</p>

<p>X509_STORE_CTX_get_get_issuer(), X509_STORE_CTX_get_check_issued(), X509_STORE_CTX_get_check_revocation(), X509_STORE_CTX_get_get_crl(), X509_STORE_CTX_get_check_crl(), X509_STORE_CTX_get_cert_crl(), X509_STORE_CTX_get_check_policy(), X509_STORE_CTX_get_lookup_certs(), X509_STORE_CTX_get_lookup_crls() and X509_STORE_CTX_get_cleanup() return the function pointers cached from the corresponding <b>X509_STORE</b>, please see <a href="../man3/X509_STORE_set_verify.html">X509_STORE_set_verify(3)</a> for more information.</p>

<h1 id="WARNINGS">WARNINGS</h1>

<p>In general a verification callback should <b>NOT</b> unconditionally return 1 in all circumstances because this will allow verification to succeed no matter what the error. This effectively removes all security from the application because <b>any</b> certificate (including untrusted generated ones) will be accepted.</p>

<h1 id="NOTES">NOTES</h1>

<p>The verification callback can be set and inherited from the parent structure performing the operation. In some cases (such as S/MIME verification) the <b>X509_STORE_CTX</b> structure is created and destroyed internally and the only way to set a custom verification callback is by inheriting it from the associated <b>X509_STORE</b>.</p>

<h1 id="RETURN-VALUES">RETURN VALUES</h1>

<p>X509_STORE_CTX_set_verify_cb() does not return a value.</p>

<h1 id="EXAMPLES">EXAMPLES</h1>

<p>Default callback operation:</p>

<pre><code> int verify_callback(int ok, X509_STORE_CTX *ctx) {
     return ok;
 }</code></pre>

<p>Simple example, suppose a certificate in the chain is expired and we wish to continue after this error:</p>

<pre><code> int verify_callback(int ok, X509_STORE_CTX *ctx) {
     /* Tolerate certificate expiration */
     if (X509_STORE_CTX_get_error(ctx) == X509_V_ERR_CERT_HAS_EXPIRED)
         return 1;
     /* Otherwise don&#39;t override */
     return ok;
 }</code></pre>

<p>More complex example, we don&#39;t wish to continue after <b>any</b> certificate has expired just one specific case:</p>

<pre><code> int verify_callback(int ok, X509_STORE_CTX *ctx)
 {
     int err = X509_STORE_CTX_get_error(ctx);
     X509 *err_cert = X509_STORE_CTX_get_current_cert(ctx);

     if (err == X509_V_ERR_CERT_HAS_EXPIRED) {
         if (check_is_acceptable_expired_cert(err_cert)
             return 1;
     }
     return ok;
 }</code></pre>

<p>Full featured logging callback. In this case the <b>bio_err</b> is assumed to be a global logging <b>BIO</b>, an alternative would to store a BIO in <b>ctx</b> using <b>ex_data</b>.</p>

<pre><code> int verify_callback(int ok, X509_STORE_CTX *ctx)
 {
     X509 *err_cert;
     int err, depth;

     err_cert = X509_STORE_CTX_get_current_cert(ctx);
     err = X509_STORE_CTX_get_error(ctx);
     depth = X509_STORE_CTX_get_error_depth(ctx);

     BIO_printf(bio_err, &quot;depth=%d &quot;, depth);
     if (err_cert) {
         X509_NAME_print_ex(bio_err, X509_get_subject_name(err_cert),
                            0, XN_FLAG_ONELINE);
         BIO_puts(bio_err, &quot;\n&quot;);
     }
     else
         BIO_puts(bio_err, &quot;&lt;no cert&gt;\n&quot;);
     if (!ok)
         BIO_printf(bio_err, &quot;verify error:num=%d:%s\n&quot;, err,
                    X509_verify_cert_error_string(err));
     switch (err) {
     case X509_V_ERR_UNABLE_TO_GET_ISSUER_CERT:
         BIO_puts(bio_err, &quot;issuer= &quot;);
         X509_NAME_print_ex(bio_err, X509_get_issuer_name(err_cert),
                            0, XN_FLAG_ONELINE);
         BIO_puts(bio_err, &quot;\n&quot;);
         break;
     case X509_V_ERR_CERT_NOT_YET_VALID:
     case X509_V_ERR_ERROR_IN_CERT_NOT_BEFORE_FIELD:
         BIO_printf(bio_err, &quot;notBefore=&quot;);
         ASN1_TIME_print(bio_err, X509_get_notBefore(err_cert));
         BIO_printf(bio_err, &quot;\n&quot;);
         break;
     case X509_V_ERR_CERT_HAS_EXPIRED:
     case X509_V_ERR_ERROR_IN_CERT_NOT_AFTER_FIELD:
         BIO_printf(bio_err, &quot;notAfter=&quot;);
         ASN1_TIME_print(bio_err, X509_get_notAfter(err_cert));
         BIO_printf(bio_err, &quot;\n&quot;);
         break;
     case X509_V_ERR_NO_EXPLICIT_POLICY:
         policies_print(bio_err, ctx);
         break;
     }
     if (err == X509_V_OK &amp;&amp; ok == 2)
         /* print out policies */

     BIO_printf(bio_err, &quot;verify return:%d\n&quot;, ok);
     return(ok);
 }</code></pre>
