GSS_VERIFY_MIC(3GSS) | Generic Security Services API Library Functions | GSS_VERIFY_MIC(3GSS) |
gss_verify_mic - verify integrity of a received message
cc [ flag... ] file... -lgss [ library... ] #include <gssapi/gssapi.h> OM_uint32 gss_verify_mic(OM_uint32 *minor_status,
const gss_ctx_id_t context_handle, const gss_buffer_t message_buffer,
const gss_buffer_t token_buffer, gss_qop_t *qop_state);
The gss_verify_mic() function verifies that a cryptographic MIC, contained in the token parameter, fits the supplied message. The qop_state parameter allows a message recipient to determine the strength of protection that was applied to the message.
Since some application-level protocols may wish to use tokens emitted by gss_wrap(3GSS) to provide secure framing, the GSS-API supports the calculation and verification of MICs over zero-length messages.
The parameter descriptions for gss_verify_mic() follow:
minor_status
context_handle
message_buffer
token_buffer
qop_state
gss_verify_mic() may return the following status codes:
GSS_S_COMPLETE
GSS_S_DEFECTIVE_TOKEN
GSS_S_BAD_SIG
GSS_S_DUPLICATE_TOKEN
GSS_S_OLD_TOKEN
GSS_S_UNSEQ_TOKEN
GSS_S_GAP_TOKEN
GSS_S_CONTEXT_EXPIRED
GSS_S_NO_CONTEXT
GSS_S_FAILURE
