Encrypting To decrypt data using XML Security Library the application should: Create decryption context (depending on the application it could be done once in the beggining of the program). Call decryption functions: `xmlSecDecrypt()` Verifiy the result and continue decrypted data processing. In this example, we will decrypt XML document encrypted in previous example. The source code for this example is included into the package. #### Step 0. Initializing LibXML, OpenSSL and XML Security Library. Before using the libraries we need to initialize them. This should be done once in the beginning of your program `int rnd_seed = 0; /** * Init OpenSSL: * this is a BAD way to init random numbers * generator */ while (RAND_status() != 1) { RAND_seed(&rnd_seed, sizeof(rnd_seed)); } /** * Init libxml */ xmlInitParser(); LIBXML_TEST_VERSION` `/** * Init xmlsec */ xmlSecInit();` #### Step 1. Loading key and creating the encryption context. Before encrypting or decrypting the document you should create encryption context object. In most case you will need only one context object per application `xmlSecKeysMngrPtr keysMngr = NULL; xmlSecEncCtxPtr ctx = NULL; /** * Create Keys managers */ keysMngr = xmlSecSimpleKeysMngrCreate(); if(keysMngr == NULL) { fprintf(stderr, "Error: failed to create keys manager\n"); return(-1); } /** * Create enc context */ ctx = xmlSecEncCtxCreate(keysMngr); if(ctx == NULL) { fprintf(stderr, "Error: template failed to create context\n"); return(-1) } /** * load key private rsa key */ if(xmlSecSimpleKeysMngrLoadPem(keysMgr, argv[1], NULL, NULL, 1) == NULL) { fprintf(stderr, "Error: failed to load key from \"%s\"\n", argv[1]); return(-1); }` #### Step 2. Load the document, decrypt and print result document to stdout. We are ready to decrypt the document! `xmlDocPtr doc = NULL; xmlSecEncResultPtr result = NULL; int ret; /* * build an XML tree from a the file; we need to add default * attributes and resolve all character and entities references */ xmlLoadExtDtdDefaultValue = XML_DETECT_IDS | XML_COMPLETE_ATTRS; xmlSubstituteEntitiesDefault(1); doc = xmlParseFile(filename); if (doc == NULL) { fprintf(stderr, "Error: unable to parse file \"%s\"\n", filename); goto done; } /* * Check the document is of the right kind */ if(xmlDocGetRootElement(doc) == NULL) { fprintf(stderr,"Error: empty document for file \"%s\"\n", filename); goto done; } /** * Decrypt */ ret = xmlSecDecrypt(ctx, NULL, NULL, xmlDocGetRootElement(doc), &result); if(ret < 0) { fprintf(stderr, "Error: decryption failed\n"); goto done; } /** * And print result to stdout */ ret = fwrite(xmlBufferContent(result->buffer),xmlBufferLength(result->buffer), 1, stdout);` `` #### Step 3. Cleanup. At the end we need to destroy encryption context, the doc and KeysManager; shutdown XML Security Library, libxml and OpenSSL: `/* * Cleanup */ if(ctx != NULL) { xmlSecEncCtxDestroy(ctx); } if(keysMngr != NULL) { xmlSecSimpleKeysMngrDestroy(keysMngr); } /** * Shutdown XML Sec */ xmlSecShutdown(); /** * Shutdown libxslt */ xsltCleanupGlobals();` `/* * Shutdown libxml */ xmlCleanupParser(); /* * Shutdown OpenSSL */ RAND_cleanup(); ERR_clear_error();````` #### Appendix A. The encrypted document. `<?xml version="1.0"?> <EncryptedData xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmlenc#"> <EncryptionMethod Algorithm="http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmlenc#aes128-cbc"/> <KeyInfo xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/09/xmldsig#"> <EncryptedKey xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmlenc#"> <EncryptionMethod Algorithm="http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmlenc#rsa-oaep-mgf1p"/> <KeyInfo xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/09/xmldsig#"> <KeyName>test-rsa-key</KeyName> </KeyInfo> <CipherData> <CipherValue> ETFcDnUPrXyZpaUNDCbe6r6E+YIWmoXBcppWHgv03H+0jIH+w74YKRJh601KUA4u KDUK/MbglWQ40FvQ4vhOC4X0uGtWizRllOoZJHn9ppzAcIuwURQOIjCNl9GtrcEx 14HNIlUoAEXjIbbwSaGCS5u4IdtxzhS2f9P8INh5PkpJjV9EYT73cbX4Cq5e4Yto Puox+NUpfOhSfPhTf+41+3u99Nn6oaxlLokfl//lbSE8gD2Yo48cyXN2HkX4tchF qOFdCb5bYXA/NmLnrdXXm1Fpuf4QoLDXmbfrCXGF+mHSBkVC1C49FL4ynIVGcBF3 FibDfsohFvg/ucbDhKHNVQ== </CipherValue> </CipherData> </EncryptedKey> </KeyInfo> <CipherData> <CipherValue> BwP8RHXhJ8xcFVSONxfkwOxhgZNElAmJbaaAdzAIjbk= </CipherValue> </CipherData> <EncryptionProperties> <EncryptionProperty Id="Classified" Level="Top secret"/> </EncryptionProperties> </EncryptedData>` Aleksey Sanin
