  160. \&\fBCMS_decrypt()\fR extracts the decrypted content from a \s-1CMS\s0 EnvelopedData
  161. or AuthEnvelopedData structure.
  162. It uses \fBCMS_decrypt_set1_pkey()\fR to decrypt the content
  163. with the recipient private key \fIpkey\fR if \fIpkey\fR is not \s-1NULL.\s0
  164. In this case, the associated certificate is recommended to provide in \fIcert\fR \-
  165. see the \s-1NOTES\s0 below.
  166. \&\fIout\fR is a \s-1BIO\s0 to write the content to and
  167. \&\fIflags\fR is an optional set of flags.
  168. If \fIpkey\fR is \s-1NULL\s0 the function assumes that decryption was already done
  169. (e.g., using \fBCMS_decrypt_set1_pkey()\fR or \fBCMS_decrypt_set1_password()\fR) and just
  170. provides the content unless \fIcert\fR, \fIdcont\fR, and \fIout\fR are \s-1NULL\s0 as well.
  171. The \fIdcont\fR parameter is used in the rare case where the encrypted content
  172. is detached. It will normally be set to \s-1NULL.\s0

  176. recommended but may be \s-1NULL,\s0 and the (optional) originator certificate \fIpeer\fR.
  177. On success, it also records in \fIcms\fR the decryption key \fIpkey\fR, and then
  178. should be followed by \f(CW\*(C`CMS_decrypt(cms, NULL, NULL, dcont, out, flags)\*(C'\fR.

  191. Although the recipients certificate is not needed to decrypt the data it is
  192. needed to locate the appropriate (of possible several) recipients in the \s-1CMS\s0
  193. structure.
  194. .PP
  195. If \fIcert\fR is set to \s-1NULL\s0 all possible recipients are tried. This case however
  196. is problematic. To thwart the \s-1MMA\s0 attack (Bleichenbacher's attack on
  197. \&\s-1PKCS\s0 #1 v1.5 \s-1RSA\s0 padding) all recipients are tried whether they succeed or
  198. not. If no recipient succeeds then a random symmetric key is used to decrypt
  199. the content: this will typically output garbage and may (but is not guaranteed
  200. to) ultimately return a padding error only. If \fBCMS_decrypt()\fR just returned an
  201. error when all recipient encrypted keys failed to decrypt an attacker could
  202. use this in a timing attack. If the special flag \fB\s-1CMS_DEBUG_DECRYPT\s0\fR is set
  203. then the above behaviour is modified and an error \fBis\fR returned if no
  204. recipient encrypted key can be decrypted \fBwithout\fR generating a random
  205. content encryption key. Applications should use this flag with
  206. \&\fBextreme caution\fR especially in automated gateways as it can leave them
  207. open to attack.
  208. .PP
  209. It is possible to determine the correct recipient key by other means (for
  210. example looking them up in a database) and setting them in the \s-1CMS\s0 structure
  211. in advance using the \s-1CMS\s0 utility functions such as \fBCMS_set1_pkey()\fR,
  212. or use \fBCMS_decrypt_set1_password()\fR if the recipient has a symmetric key.
  213. In these cases both \fIcert\fR and \fIpkey\fR should be set to \s-1NULL.\s0
  214. .PP
  215. To process KEKRecipientInfo types \fBCMS_set1_key()\fR or \fBCMS_RecipientInfo_set0_key()\fR
  216. and \fBCMS_RecipientInfo_decrypt()\fR should be called before \fBCMS_decrypt()\fR and
  217. \&\fIcert\fR and \fIpkey\fR set to \s-1NULL.\s0
  218. .PP
  219. The following flags can be passed in the \fIflags\fR parameter.
  220. .PP
  221. If the \fB\s-1CMS_TEXT\s0\fR flag is set \s-1MIME\s0 headers for type \f(CW\*(C`text/plain\*(C'\fR are deleted
  222. from the content. If the content is not of type \f(CW\*(C`text/plain\*(C'\fR then an error is
  223. returned.
