Struct x509_parser::x509::X509Certificate

pub struct X509Certificate<'a> {
    pub tbs_certificate: TbsCertificate<'a>,
    pub signature_algorithm: AlgorithmIdentifier<'a>,
    pub signature_value: BitStringObject<'a>,
}

An X.509 v3 Certificate.

X.509 v3 certificates are defined in RFC5280, section 4.1. This object uses the same structure for content, so for ex the subject can be accessed using the path x509.tbs_certificate.subject.

X509Certificate also contains convenience methods to access the most common fields (subject, issuer, etc.).

A X509Certificate is a zero-copy view over a buffer, so the lifetime is the same as the buffer containing the binary representation.

fn display_x509_info(x509: &X509Certificate<'_>) {
     let subject = &x509.tbs_certificate.subject;
     let issuer = &x509.tbs_certificate.issuer;
     println!("X.509 Subject: {}", subject);
     println!("X.509 Issuer: {}", issuer);
     println!("X.509 serial: {}", x509.tbs_certificate.raw_serial_as_string());
}

Fields

tbs_certificate: TbsCertificate<'a>

signature_algorithm: AlgorithmIdentifier<'a>

signature_value: BitStringObject<'a>

Implementations

impl<'a> X509Certificate<'a>

pub fn version(&self) -> X509Version

Get the version of the encoded certificate

pub fn subject(&self) -> &X509Name

Get the certificate subject.

pub fn issuer(&self) -> &X509Name

Get the certificate issuer.

pub fn validity(&self) -> &Validity

Get the certificate validity.

pub fn extensions(&self) -> &HashMap<Oid, X509Extension>

Get the certificate extensions.

impl<'a> X509Certificate<'a>

pub fn verify_signature(
    &self,
    public_key: Option<&SubjectPublicKeyInfo>
) -> Result<(), X509Error>

This is supported on feature="verify" only.

Verify the cryptographic signature of this certificate

public_key is the public key of the signer. For a self-signed certificate, (for ex. a public root certificate authority), this is the key from the certificate, so you can use None.

For a leaf certificate, this is the public key of the certificate that signed it. It is usually an intermediate authority.
