.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
The \s-1EVP\s0 signature verification routines are a high-level interface to digital
signatures.
.PP
\&\fIEVP_VerifyInit_ex()\fR sets up verification context \fBctx\fR to use digest
\&\fBtype\fR from \s-1ENGINE\s0 \fBimpl\fR. \fBctx\fR must be created by calling
\&\fIEVP_MD_CTX_new()\fR before calling this function.
.PP
\&\fIEVP_VerifyUpdate()\fR hashes \fBcnt\fR bytes of data at \fBd\fR into the
verification context \fBctx\fR. This function can be called several times on the
same \fBctx\fR to include additional data.
.PP
\&\fIEVP_VerifyFinal()\fR verifies the data in \fBctx\fR using the public key \fBpkey\fR
and against the \fBsiglen\fR bytes at \fBsigbuf\fR.
.PP
\&\fIEVP_VerifyInit()\fR initializes verification context \fBctx\fR to use the default
implementation of digest \fBtype\fR.
.SH "RETURN VALUES"
.IX Header "RETURN VALUES"
\&\fIEVP_VerifyInit_ex()\fR and \fIEVP_VerifyUpdate()\fR return 1 for success and 0 for
failure.
.PP
\&\fIEVP_VerifyFinal()\fR returns 1 for a correct signature, 0 for failure and \-1 if some
other error occurred.
.PP
The error codes can be obtained by \fIERR_get_error\fR\|(3).
.SH "NOTES"
.IX Header "NOTES"
The \fB\s-1EVP\s0\fR interface to digital signatures should almost always be used in
preference to the low-level interfaces. This is because the code then becomes
transparent to the algorithm used and much more flexible.
.PP
The call to \fIEVP_VerifyFinal()\fR internally finalizes a copy of the digest context.
This means that calls to \fIEVP_VerifyUpdate()\fR and \fIEVP_VerifyFinal()\fR can be called
later to digest and verify additional data.
.PP
Since only a copy of the digest context is ever finalized the context must
be cleaned up after use by calling \fIEVP_MD_CTX_free()\fR or a memory leak
will occur.
.SH "BUGS"
.IX Header "BUGS"
Older versions of this documentation wrongly stated that calls to
\&\fIEVP_VerifyUpdate()\fR could not be made after calling \fIEVP_VerifyFinal()\fR.
.PP
Since the public key is passed in the call to \fIEVP_SignFinal()\fR any error
relating to the private key (for example an unsuitable key and digest
combination) will not be indicated until after potentially large amounts of
data have been passed through \fIEVP_SignUpdate()\fR.
.PP
It is not possible to change the signing parameters using these function.
.PP
The previous two bugs are fixed in the newer EVP_DigestVerify*() function.
