.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
\&\fIX509_get0_signature()\fR sets \fB*psig\fR to the signature of \fBx\fR and \fB*palg\fR
to the signature algorithm of \fBx\fR. The values returned are internal
pointers which \fB\s-1MUST\s0 \s-1NOT\s0\fR be freed up after the call.
.PP
\&\fIX509_get0_tbs_sigalg()\fR returns the signature algorithm in the signed
portion of \fBx\fR.
.PP
\&\fIX509_get_signature_nid()\fR returns the \s-1NID\s0 corresponding to the signature
algorithm of \fBx\fR.
.PP
\&\fIX509_REQ_get0_signature()\fR, \fIX509_REQ_get_signature_nid()\fR
\&\fIX509_CRL_get0_signature()\fR and \fIX509_CRL_get_signature_nid()\fR perform the
same function for certificate requests and CRLs.
.PP
\&\fIX509_get_signature_info()\fR retrieves information about the signature of
certificate \fBx\fR. The \s-1NID\s0 of the signing digest is written to \fB*mdnid\fR,
the public key algorithm to \fB*pknid\fR, the effective security bits to
\&\fB*secbits\fR and flag details to \fB*flags\fR. Any of the parameters can
be set to \fB\s-1NULL\s0\fR if the information is not required.
.PP
\&\fIX509_SIG_INFO_get()\fR and \fIX509_SIG_INFO_set()\fR get and set information
about a signature in an \fBX509_SIG_INFO\fR structure. They are only
used by implementations of algorithms which need to set custom
signature information: most applications will never need to call
them.
.SH "NOTES"
.IX Header "NOTES"
These functions provide lower level access to signatures in certificates
where an application wishes to analyse or generate a signature in a form
where \fIX509_sign()\fR et al is not appropriate (for example a non standard
or unsupported format).
.PP
The security bits returned by \fIX509_get_signature_info()\fR refers to information
available from the certificate signature (such as the signing digest). In some
cases the actual security of the signature is less because the signing
key is less secure: for example a certificate signed using \s-1SHA\-512\s0 and a
1024 bit \s-1RSA\s0 key.
.SH "RETURN VALUES"
.IX Header "RETURN VALUES"
\&\fIX509_get_signature_nid()\fR, \fIX509_REQ_get_signature_nid()\fR and
\&\fIX509_CRL_get_signature_nid()\fR return a \s-1NID\s0.
.PP
\&\fIX509_get0_signature()\fR, \fIX509_REQ_get0_signature()\fR and
\&\fIX509_CRL_get0_signature()\fR do not return values.
.PP
\&\fIX509_get_signature_info()\fR returns 1 if the signature information
returned is valid or 0 if the information is not available (e.g.
unknown algorithms or malformed parameters).
