.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
\&\fBX509_verify()\fR verifies the signature of certificate \fIx\fR using public key
\&\fIpkey\fR. Only the signature is checked: no other checks (such as certificate
chain validity) are performed.
.PP
\&\fBX509_self_signed()\fR checks whether certificate \fIcert\fR is self-signed.
For success the issuer and subject names must match, the components of the
authority key identifier (if present) must match the subject key identifier etc.
The signature itself is actually verified only if \fBverify_signature\fR is 1, as
for explicitly trusted certificates this verification is not worth the effort.
.PP
\&\fBX509_REQ_verify_ex()\fR, \fBX509_REQ_verify()\fR and \fBX509_CRL_verify()\fR
verify the signatures of certificate requests and CRLs, respectively.
.SH "RETURN VALUES"
.IX Header "RETURN VALUES"
\&\fBX509_verify()\fR,
\&\fBX509_REQ_verify_ex()\fR, \fBX509_REQ_verify()\fR and \fBX509_CRL_verify()\fR
return 1 if the signature is valid and 0 if the signature check fails.
If the signature could not be checked at all because it was ill-formed,
the certificate or the request was not complete or some other error occurred
then \-1 is returned.
.PP
\&\fBX509_self_signed()\fR returns the same values but also returns 1
if all respective fields match and \fBverify_signature\fR is 0.
