Revision a520723f29aac6598ff0d69e34f5e9b88213e511 authored by Matt Caswell on 14 October 2016, 12:07:00 UTC, committed by Matt Caswell on 28 October 2016, 08:43:41 UTC
The previous commit inspired a review of all the length checks for the extension adding code. This adds more robust checks and adds checks where some were missing previously. The real solution for this is to use WPACKET which is currently in master - but that cannot be applied to release branches. Reviewed-by: Rich Salz <rsalz@openssl.org>

=head1 NAME
CMS_get0_type, CMS_set1_eContentType, CMS_get0_eContentType, CMS_get0_content - get and set CMS content types and content
=head1 SYNOPSIS
#include <openssl/cms.h>
const ASN1_OBJECT *CMS_get0_type(CMS_ContentInfo *cms);
int CMS_set1_eContentType(CMS_ContentInfo *cms, const ASN1_OBJECT *oid);
const ASN1_OBJECT *CMS_get0_eContentType(CMS_ContentInfo *cms);
ASN1_OCTET_STRING **CMS_get0_content(CMS_ContentInfo *cms);
=head1 DESCRIPTION
CMS_get0_type() returns the content type of a CMS_ContentInfo structure as
and ASN1_OBJECT pointer. An application can then decide how to process the
CMS_ContentInfo structure based on this value.
CMS_set1_eContentType() sets the embedded content type of a CMS_ContentInfo
structure. It should be called with CMS functions with the B<CMS_PARTIAL>
flag and B<before> the structure is finalised, otherwise the results are
undefined.
ASN1_OBJECT *CMS_get0_eContentType() returns a pointer to the embedded
content type.
CMS_get0_content() returns a pointer to the B<ASN1_OCTET_STRING> pointer
containing the embedded content.
=head1 NOTES
As the B<0> implies CMS_get0_type(), CMS_get0_eContentType() and
CMS_get0_content() return internal pointers which should B<not> be freed up.
CMS_set1_eContentType() copies the supplied OID and it B<should> be freed up
after use.
The B<ASN1_OBJECT> values returned can be converted to an integer B<NID> value
using OBJ_obj2nid(). For the currently supported content types the following
values are returned:
NID_pkcs7_data
NID_pkcs7_signed
NID_pkcs7_digest
NID_id_smime_ct_compressedData:
NID_pkcs7_encrypted
NID_pkcs7_enveloped
The return value of CMS_get0_content() is a pointer to the B<ASN1_OCTET_STRING>
content pointer. That means that for example:
ASN1_OCTET_STRING **pconf = CMS_get0_content(cms);
B<*pconf> could be NULL if there is no embedded content. Applications can
access, modify or create the embedded content in a B<CMS_ContentInfo> structure
using this function. Applications usually will not need to modify the
embedded content as it is normally set by higher level functions.
=head1 RETURN VALUES
CMS_get0_type() and CMS_get0_eContentType() return and ASN1_OBJECT structure.
CMS_set1_eContentType() returns 1 for success or 0 if an error occurred. The
error can be obtained from ERR_get_error(3).

L<ERR_get_error(3)|ERR_get_error(3)>
=head1 HISTORY
CMS_get0_type(), CMS_set1_eContentType() and CMS_get0_eContentType() were all
first added to OpenSSL 0.9.8
