Expand description

Low-level digital signature (e.g. DSA, ECDSA, Ed25519).

These are low-level signatures used as part of the OpenSSH certificate format to represent signatures by certificate authorities (CAs), as well as the higher-level SshSig format, which provides general-purpose signing functionality using SSH keys.

From OpenSSH’s PROTOCOL.certkeys specification:

Signatures are computed and encoded according to the rules defined for the CA’s public key algorithm (RFC4253 section 6.6 for ssh-rsa and ssh-dss, RFC5656 for the ECDSA types, and RFC8032 for Ed25519).

RSA signature support is implemented using the SHA2 family extensions as described in RFC8332.

Implementations

Create a new signature with the given algorithm and raw signature data.

See specifications in toplevel Signature documentation for how to format the raw signature data for a given algorithm.

Returns

Get the Algorithm associated with this signature.

Get the raw signature as bytes.
