Class MTCCosignedMessage

java.lang.Object

org.bouncycastle.cert.plants.MTCCosignedMessage

public final class MTCCosignedMessage
extends Object

Wire encoder for the CosignedMessage struct defined by Section 5.3.1 of draft-ietf-plants-merkle-tree-certs:

struct {
    uint8 label[12] = "subtree/v1\n\0";
    opaque cosigner_name<1..2^8-1>;
    uint64 timestamp;
    opaque log_origin<1..2^8-1>;
    uint64 start;
    uint64 end;
    HashValue subtree_hash;
} CosignedMessage;

cosigner_name and log_origin are the ASCII strings "oid/1.3.6.1.4.1." + <dotted-decimal trust anchor ID>, constructed from the binary trust anchor IDs supplied by the caller.

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
static byte[]	encode(byte[] logId, long start, long end, byte[] subtreeHash, byte[] cosignerId)	Equivalent to encode(byte[], long, long, long, byte[], byte[]) with timestamp == 0, which is the only value permitted inside an MTCProof cosigner signature per Section 6.1 of the draft.
static byte[]	encode(byte[] logId, long timestamp, long start, long end, byte[] subtreeHash, byte[] cosignerId)	Encodes a CosignedMessage in the wire format defined by Section 5.3.1.
static byte[]	encode(MTCLog log, byte[] subtreeHash, byte[] cosignerId)	Equivalent to encode(byte[], long, long, byte[], byte[]) taking the log ID and subtree window from an MTCLog.
static byte[]	encode(MTCLog log, long timestamp, byte[] subtreeHash, byte[] cosignerId)	Equivalent to encode(byte[], long, long, long, byte[], byte[]) taking the log ID and subtree window from an MTCLog.

Method Details

encode

public static byte[] encode(byte[] logId,
 long start,
 long end,
 byte[] subtreeHash,
 byte[] cosignerId)
                     throws IOException

Equivalent to encode(byte[], long, long, long, byte[], byte[]) with timestamp == 0, which is the only value permitted inside an MTCProof cosigner signature per Section 6.1 of the draft.

Throws:

IOException

encode

public static byte[] encode(MTCLog log,
 byte[] subtreeHash,
 byte[] cosignerId)
                     throws IOException

Equivalent to encode(byte[], long, long, byte[], byte[]) taking the log ID and subtree window from an MTCLog. Convenient for issuer-side code that already carries an MTCLog object.

Throws:

IOException

encode

public static byte[] encode(MTCLog log,
 long timestamp,
 byte[] subtreeHash,
 byte[] cosignerId)
                     throws IOException

Equivalent to encode(byte[], long, long, long, byte[], byte[]) taking the log ID and subtree window from an MTCLog. Use the non-MTCProof case where a non-zero timestamp is required.

Throws:

IOException

encode

public static byte[] encode(byte[] logId,
 long timestamp,
 long start,
 long end,
 byte[] subtreeHash,
 byte[] cosignerId)
                     throws IOException

Encodes a CosignedMessage in the wire format defined by Section 5.3.1.

Parameters:

logId - binary trust anchor ID of the log

timestamp - POSIX timestamp (zero inside an MTCProof; non-zero elsewhere)

start - subtree start index

end - subtree end index

subtreeHash - hash of the subtree

cosignerId - binary trust anchor ID of the cosigner

Returns:

the encoded CosignedMessage bytes

Throws:

IOException
