(PHP ActiveX) RSA Hash Binary Data and Sign (and Verify)

Demonstrates how to sign the hash of binary data. Also demonstrates how to verify the RSA signature.

Note: This example uses methods introduced in Chilkat v9.5.0.77.

<?php

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

// Load an RSA private key for signing.
// For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use new COM('Chilkat_9_5_0.Chilkat.PrivateKey')
$privKey = new COM("Chilkat.PrivateKey");
$success = $privKey->LoadEncryptedPemFile('qa_data/pem/rsa_passwd.pem','passwd');
if ($success != 1) {
    print $privKey->LastErrorText . "\n";
    exit;
}

// For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use new COM('Chilkat_9_5_0.Chilkat.Rsa')
$rsa = new COM("Chilkat.Rsa");
$rsa->ImportPrivateKeyObj($privKey);

// We have some binary data (in hex) to sign
$originalData = '0102030405060708090A';
// For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use new COM('Chilkat_9_5_0.Chilkat.BinData')
$bdData = new COM("Chilkat.BinData");
$bdData->AppendEncoded($originalData,'hex');

// Hash (SHA-256) and sign the hash:
// For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use new COM('Chilkat_9_5_0.Chilkat.BinData')
$bdSignature = new COM("Chilkat.BinData");
$success = $rsa->SignBd($bdData,'sha256',$bdSignature);
if ($success != 1) {
    print $rsa->LastErrorText . "\n";
    exit;
}

// Show the RSA signature in base64
print $bdSignature->getEncoded('base64') . "\n";

// ------------------------------------------
// Get the public key from the private key
// pubKey is a Chilkat.PublicKey
$pubKey = $privKey->GetPublicKey();

// Verify the signature..
// For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use new COM('Chilkat_9_5_0.Chilkat.Rsa')
$rsa2 = new COM("Chilkat.Rsa");
$rsa2->ImportPublicKeyObj($pubKey);

$bVerified = $rsa2->VerifyBd($bdData,'sha256',$bdSignature);
print 'signature verified: ' . $bVerified . "\n";
