NAME

PKCS7_encrypt - create a PKCS#7 envelopedData structure

SYNOPSIS

PKCS7 *PKCS7_encrypt(STACK_OF(X509) *certs, BIO *in, const EVP_CIPHER *cipher, int flags);

DESCRIPTION

PKCS7_encrypt() creates and returns a PKCS#7 envelopedData structure. certs is a list of recipient certificates. in is the content to be encrypted. cipher is the symmetric cipher to use. flags is an optional set of flags.

NOTES

Only RSA keys are supported in PKCS#7 and envelopedData so the recipient certificates supplied to this function must all contain RSA public keys, though they do not have to be signed using the RSA algorithm.

EVP_des_ede3_cbc() (triple DES) is the algorithm of choice for S/MIME use because most clients will support it.

Some old ``export grade'' clients may only support weak encryption using 40 or 64 bit RC2. These can be used by passing EVP_rc2_40_cbc() and EVP_rc2_64_cbc() respectively.

The algorithm passed in the cipher parameter must support ASN1 encoding of its parameters.

Many browsers implement a ``sign and encrypt'' option which is simply an S/MIME envelopedData containing an S/MIME signed message. This can be readily produced by storing the S/MIME signed message in a memory BIO and passing it to PKCS7_encrypt().

The following flags can be passed in the flags parameter.

If the PKCS7_TEXT flag is set MIME headers for type text/plain are prepended to the data.

Normally the supplied content is translated into MIME canonical format (as required by the S/MIME specifications) if PKCS7_BINARY is set no translation occurs. This option should be used if the supplied data is in binary format otherwise the translation will corrupt it. If PKCS7_BINARY is set then PKCS7_TEXT is ignored.
