Sign SOAP XML using a wsse:SecurityTokenReference

See more XML Digital Signatures Examples

This example signs SOAP XML such that the KeyInfo in the XML Signature is a wsse:SecurityTokenReference to the X.509 certificate embedded elsewhere in the SOAP XML.

; This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
; See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

; To begin, we'll need a PFX containing a certificate and private key, and the SOAP XML to be signed.
; Chilkat provides sample data at chilkatsoft.com and chilkatdownload.com, and our first step is to download.

; -------------------------------------------------------------------------
; Step 1: Get the SOAP XML template to be signed.
; 
$oSbXml = ObjCreate("Chilkat.StringBuilder")

$oHttp = ObjCreate("Chilkat.Http")
$bSuccess = $oHttp.QuickGetSb("https://www.chilkatsoft.com/exampleData/wssSoapTemplate.xml",$oSbXml)
If ($bSuccess = False) Then
    ConsoleWrite($oHttp.LastErrorText & @CRLF)
    Exit
EndIf

; The SOAP XML template contains this:

; <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF8"?>
; <SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
; <SOAP-ENV:Header>
;  <wsse:Security xmlns:ds="http://www.w3.org/2000/09/xmldsig#"
;                 xmlns:wsse="http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-wssecurity-secext-1.0.xsd"
;                 xmlns:wsu="http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-wssecurity-utility-1.0.xsd"
;                 xmlns:xenc="http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmlenc#" SOAP-ENV:mustUnderstand="1">
;  <wsse:BinarySecurityToken
;                EncodingType="http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-soap-message-security-1.0#Base64Binary"
;                ValueType="http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-x509-token-profile-1.0#X509"
;                wsu:Id="x509cert00">BASE64_CERT</wsse:BinarySecurityToken>
;  </wsse:Security>
; </SOAP-ENV:Header>
; <SOAP-ENV:Body xmlns:wsu="http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-wssecurity-utility-1.0.xsd" wsu:Id="TheBody">
;  <getVersion xmlns="http://msgsec.wssecfvt.ws.ibm.com"/>
; </SOAP-ENV:Body>
; </SOAP-ENV:Envelope>
; 

; -------------------------------------------------------------------------
; Step 2: Get the test certificate and private key stored in a .pfx
; 
$oPfxData = ObjCreate("Chilkat.BinData")
$bSuccess = $oHttp.QuickGetBd("http://chilkatdownload.com/example_data/testcertificate.pfx",$oPfxData)
If ($bSuccess = False) Then
    ConsoleWrite($oHttp.LastErrorText & @CRLF)
    Exit
EndIf

$oPfx = ObjCreate("Chilkat.Pfx")
Local $sPassword = "test"
$bSuccess = $oPfx.LoadPfxEncoded($oPfxData.GetEncoded("base64"),"base64",$sPassword)
If ($bSuccess = False) Then
    ConsoleWrite($oPfx.LastErrorText & @CRLF)
    Exit
EndIf

; -------------------------------------------------------------------------
; Step 3: Get the certificate from the PFX.
; 
$oCert = ObjCreate("Chilkat.Cert")
$bSuccess = $oPfx.CertAt(0,$oCert)
If ($bSuccess = False) Then
    ConsoleWrite($oPfx.LastErrorText & @CRLF)
    Exit
EndIf

; -------------------------------------------------------------------------
; Step 4: Replace "BASE64_CERT" with the actual base64 encoded certificate.
; 
$oBdCert = ObjCreate("Chilkat.BinData")
$oCert.ExportCertDerBd($oBdCert)

Local $iNumReplaced = $oSbXml.Replace("BASE64_CERT",$oBdCert.GetEncoded("base64"))

; -------------------------------------------------------------------------
; Step 5: Build the wsse:SecurityTokenReference XML.
; This will be the CustomKeyInfoXml (see below).
; 
$oRefXml = ObjCreate("Chilkat.Xml")
$oRefXml.Tag = "wsse:SecurityTokenReference"
$oRefXml.UpdateAttrAt("wsse:Reference",True,"URI","#x509cert00")
$oRefXml.UpdateAttrAt("wsse:Reference",True,"ValueType","http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-x509-token-profile-1.0#X509")

; The above lines of code builds the following XML:

; 	<wsse:SecurityTokenReference>
; 	    <wsse:Reference URI="#x509cert00" ValueType="http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-x509-token-profile-1.0#X509" />
; 	</wsse:SecurityTokenReference>
; 
$oRefXml.EmitXmlDecl = False
ConsoleWrite($oRefXml.GetXml() & @CRLF)

; -------------------------------------------------------------------------
; Step 6: Setup the XML Digital Signature Generator and add the XML Signature.
; 
$oGen = ObjCreate("Chilkat.XmlDSigGen")
$oGen.SigLocation = "SOAP-ENV:Envelope|SOAP-ENV:Header|wsse:Security"
$oGen.SignedInfoPrefixList = "wsse SOAP-ENV"
$oGen.AddSameDocRef("TheBody","sha1","EXCL_C14N","","")
$oGen.KeyInfoType = "Custom"
$oRefXml.EmitCompact = True

$oGen.CustomKeyInfoXml = $oRefXml.GetXml()
$oGen.SetX509Cert($oCert,True)

$bSuccess = $oGen.CreateXmlDSigSb($oSbXml)
If ($bSuccess = False) Then
    ConsoleWrite($oGen.LastErrorText & @CRLF)
    Exit
EndIf

; Examine the signed XML
ConsoleWrite($oSbXml.GetAsString() & @CRLF)

; Pretty-printed, the XML signature looks as shown here: 
; (The exact XML signature is shown below. Pretty-printing invalidates the XML signature.)
