PKCS11 XML Signature using Certificate and Private Key on Smart Card / USB Token

See more PKCS11 Examples

Sample code showing how to use PKCS11 to create an XML digital signature with a certificate and private key stored on a smart card or USB token.

Note: This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.96 or later.

Perl

use chilkat();

$success = 0;

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

# Note: Chilkat's PKCS11 implementation runs on Windows, Linux, Mac OS X, and other supported operating systems.

$pkcs11 = chilkat::CkPkcs11->new();

# This example is tested on Windows using a Giesecke and Devrient Sm@rtCafe Expert 3.2 smart card.
# You will use the DLL (or shared lib) provided by your smart card vendor, or a DLL compatible with your smart card.
# On Windows, if the DLL is located in C:\Windows\System32, specify only the filename.
# Otherwise provide the full path.
$pkcs11->put_SharedLibPath("aetpkss1.dll");

# Make it an authenticated session by calling Login.
$userType = 1;
# Make sure to use the correct PIN for your smart card..
$pin = "0000";

$success = $pkcs11->QuickSession($userType,$pin);
if ($success == 0) {
    print $pkcs11->lastErrorText() . "\r\n";
    exit;
}

# Get the certificate (on the smart card) that has a private key.
$cert = chilkat::CkCert->new();
$success = $pkcs11->FindCert("privateKey","",$cert);
if ($success == 1) {
    print "Cert with private key: " . $cert->subjectCN() . "\r\n";
}
else {
    print "No certificates having a private key were found." . "\r\n";
    $success = $pkcs11->CloseSession();
    exit;
}

# At this point, we have the cert to be used for signing.
# Our XML signing code is the same as for a cert obtained from any other source..

# First generate the following XML to be signed:
# Use this online tool to generate code from sample XML: 
# Generate Code to Create XML
