Name

OpenXPKI::Service::SCEP::Command::PKIOperation

Description

Implements the functionality required to answer SCEP PKIOperation messages.

Functions

execute

Parses the PKCS#7 container for the message type, calls a function depending on that type and returns the result, including the HTTP header needed for the scep CGI script.

__send_cert

Create the response for the GetCert request by extracting the serial number from the request, find the certificate and return it.

__send_crl

Create the response for the GetCRL request by extracting the used CA certificate from the request and returning its crl.

Called by execute if the message type is 'PKCSReq' (19). This is the message type that is used when an SCEP client asks for a certificate. Named parameters are TOKEN and PKCS7, where token is a token from the OpenXPKI::Crypto::TokenManager of type 'SCEP'. PKCS7 is the PKCS#7 data received from the client. Using the crypto token, the transaction ID of the request is acquired. Using this transaction ID, a database lookup is done (using the datapool) to see whether there is already an existing workflow corresponding to the transaction ID.

If there is no workflow, a new one of the type defined in the server configuration is created and the (base64-encoded) PKCS#7 request as well as the transaction ID is saved in the workflow context. From there on, the work takes place in the workflow.
