279the input message to be encrypted or signed or the message to be decrypted
280or verified.
281.IP "\fB\-inform SMIME|PEM|DER\fR" 4
282.IX Item "-inform SMIME|PEM|DER"
283this specifies the input format for the \s-1CMS\s0 structure. The default
284is \fB\s-1SMIME\s0\fR which reads an S/MIME format message. \fB\s-1PEM\s0\fR and \fB\s-1DER\s0\fR
285format change this to expect \s-1PEM\s0 and \s-1DER\s0 format \s-1CMS\s0 structures

305.IP "\fB\-stream \-indef \-noindef\fR" 4
306.IX Item "-stream -indef -noindef"
307the \fB\-stream\fR and \fB\-indef\fR options are equivalent and enable streaming I/O
308for encoding operations. This permits single pass processing of data without
309the need to hold the entire contents in memory, potentially supporting very
310large files. Streaming is automatically set for S/MIME signing with detached
311data if the output format is \fB\s-1SMIME\s0\fR it is currently off by default for all
312other operations.
313.IP "\fB\-noindef\fR" 4
314.IX Item "-noindef"
315disable streaming I/O where it would produce and indefinite length constructed
316encoding. This option currently has no effect. In future streaming will be
317enabled by default on all relevant operations and this option will disable it.
318.IP "\fB\-content filename\fR" 4
319.IX Item "-content filename"
320This specifies a file containing the detached content, this is only
321useful with the \fB\-verify\fR command. This is only usable if the \s-1CMS\s0
322structure is using the detached signature form where the content is
323not included. This option will override any content if the input format
324is S/MIME and it uses the multipart/signed \s-1MIME\s0 content type.
325.IP "\fB\-text\fR" 4
326.IX Item "-text"
327this option adds plain text (text/plain) \s-1MIME\s0 headers to the supplied
328message if encrypting or signing. If decrypting or verifying it strips
5a44c043 329off text headers: if the decrypted or verified message is not of \s-1MIME \s0
01185282
PA
330type text/plain then an error occurs.
331.IP "\fB\-noout\fR" 4
332.IX Item "-noout"
333for the \fB\-cmsout\fR operation do not output the parsed \s-1CMS\s0 structure. This
334is useful when combined with the \fB\-print\fR option or if the syntax of the \s-1CMS\s0
335structure is being checked.
336.IP "\fB\-print\fR" 4
337.IX Item "-print"
338for the \fB\-cmsout\fR operation print out all fields of the \s-1CMS\s0 structure. This
339is mainly useful for testing purposes.
340.IP "\fB\-CAfile file\fR" 4
341.IX Item "-CAfile file"
342a file containing trusted \s-1CA\s0 certificates, only used with \fB\-verify\fR.
343.IP "\fB\-CApath dir\fR" 4
344.IX Item "-CApath dir"
345a directory containing trusted \s-1CA\s0 certificates, only used with
346\&\fB\-verify\fR. This directory must be a standard certificate directory: that
347is a hash of each subject name (using \fBx509 \-hash\fR) should be linked
348to each certificate.
349.IP "\fB\-md digest\fR" 4
350.IX Item "-md digest"
351digest algorithm to use when signing or resigning. If not present then the
352default digest algorithm for the signing key will be used (usually \s-1SHA1\s0).
353.IP "\fB\-[cipher]\fR" 4
354.IX Item "-[cipher]"

SW
355the encryption algorithm to use. For example triple \s-1DES \s0(168 bits) \- \fB\-des3\fR
356or 256 bit \s-1AES \- \s0\fB\-aes256\fR. Any standard algorithm name (as used by the
01185282
PA
357\&\fIEVP_get_cipherbyname()\fR function) can also be used preceded by a dash, for
358example \fB\-aes_128_cbc\fR. See \fBenc\fR for a list of ciphers
359supported by your version of OpenSSL.
360.Sp
361If not specified triple \s-1DES\s0 is used. Only used with \fB\-encrypt\fR and
362\&\fB\-EncryptedData_create\fR commands.
363.IP "\fB\-nointern\fR" 4
364.IX Item "-nointern"
365when verifying a message normally certificates (if any) included in
366the message are searched for the signing certificate. With this option
367only the certificates specified in the \fB\-certfile\fR option are used.
368The supplied certificates can still be used as untrusted CAs however.
369.IP "\fB\-no_signer_cert_verify\fR" 4
370.IX Item "-no_signer_cert_verify"
371do not verify the signers certificate of a signed message.
372.IP "\fB\-nocerts\fR" 4
373.IX Item "-nocerts"
374when signing a message the signer's certificate is normally included
375with this option it is excluded. This will reduce the size of the
376signed message but the verifier must have a copy of the signers certificate
377available locally (passed using the \fB\-certfile\fR option for example).
378.IP "\fB\-noattr\fR" 4
379.IX Item "-noattr"
380normally when a message is signed a set of attributes are included which
381include the signing time and supported symmetric algorithms. With this
382option they are not included.
383.IP "\fB\-nosmimecap\fR" 4
384.IX Item "-nosmimecap"
385exclude the list of supported algorithms from signed attributes, other options
386such as signing time and content type are still included.
387.IP "\fB\-binary\fR" 4
388.IX Item "-binary"
389normally the input message is converted to \*(L"canonical\*(R" format which is
390effectively using \s-1CR\s0 and \s-1LF\s0 as end of line: as required by the S/MIME
391specification. When this option is present no translation occurs. This
392is useful when handling binary data which may not be in \s-1MIME\s0 format.
393.IP "\fB\-nodetach\fR" 4
394.IX Item "-nodetach"
395when signing a message use opaque signing: this form is more resistant
396to translation by mail relays but it cannot be read by mail agents that
397do not support S/MIME. Without this option cleartext signing with
398the \s-1MIME\s0 type multipart/signed is used.
399.IP "\fB\-certfile file\fR" 4
400.IX Item "-certfile file"
401allows additional certificates to be specified. When signing these will
402be included with the message. When verifying these will be searched for
403the signers certificates. The certificates should be in \s-1PEM\s0 format.
404.IP "\fB\-certsout file\fR" 4
405.IX Item "-certsout file"
406any certificates contained in the message are written to \fBfile\fR.
407.IP "\fB\-signer file\fR" 4
408.IX Item "-signer file"
409a signing certificate when signing or resigning a message, this option can be
410used multiple times if more than one signer is required. If a message is being
411verified then the signers certificates will be written to this file if the
412verification was successful.
413.IP "\fB\-recip file\fR" 4
414.IX Item "-recip file"
415the recipients certificate when decrypting a message. This certificate
416must match one of the recipients of the message or an error occurs.
417.IP "\fB\-keyid\fR" 4
418.IX Item "-keyid"
419use subject key identifier to identify certificates instead of issuer name and
420serial number. The supplied certificate \fBmust\fR include a subject key

492The \s-1MIME\s0 message must be sent without any blank lines between the
493headers and the output. Some mail programs will automatically add
494a blank line. Piping the mail directly to sendmail is one way to
495achieve the correct format.
496.PP
497The supplied message to be signed or encrypted must include the
498necessary \s-1MIME\s0 headers or many S/MIME clients wont display it
499properly (if at all). You can use the \fB\-text\fR option to automatically
500add plain text headers.
501.PP
502A \*(L"signed and encrypted\*(R" message is one where a signed message is
503then encrypted. This can be produced by encrypting an already signed
504message: see the examples section.
505.PP
506This version of the program only allows one signer per message but it
507will verify multiple signers on received messages. Some S/MIME clients
508choke if a message contains multiple signers. It is possible to sign
509messages \*(L"in parallel\*(R" by signing an already signed message.
510.PP
511The options \fB\-encrypt\fR and \fB\-decrypt\fR reflect common usage in S/MIME
512clients. Strictly speaking these process \s-1CMS\s0 enveloped data: \s-1CMS\s0
513encrypted data is used for other purposes.

519The \fB\-stream\fR and \fB\-indef\fR options enable experimental streaming I/O support.

522\&\fB\-sign\fR operation if the content is not detached.
523.PP
524Streaming is always used for the \fB\-sign\fR operation with detached data but
525since the content is no longer part of the \s-1CMS\s0 structure the encoding
5a44c043 526remains \s-1DER.\s0

527.PP
528If the \fB\-decrypt\fR option is used without a recipient certificate then an
529attempt is made to locate the recipient by trying each potential recipient
530in turn using the supplied private key. To thwart the \s-1MMA\s0 attack
531(Bleichenbacher's attack on \s-1PKCS\s0 #1 v1.5 \s-1RSA\s0 padding) all recipients are
532tried whether they succeed or not and if no recipients match the message
533is \*(L"decrypted\*(R" using a random key which will typically output garbage.
534The \fB\-debug_decrypt\fR option can be used to disable the \s-1MMA\s0 attack protection
535and return an error if no recipient can be found: this option should be used
536with caution. For a fuller description see \fICMS_decrypt\fR\|(3)).
