NAME
Net::DNS::RR::SIG - DNS SIG resource record
SYNOPSIS
use Net::DNS;
$rr = Net::DNS::RR->new('name SIG typecovered algorithm labels
orgttl sigexpiration siginception
keytag signame signature');
use Net::DNS::SEC;
$sigrr = Net::DNS::RR::SIG->create( $string, $keypath,
sigval => 10 # minutes
);
$sigrr->verify( $string, $keyrr ) || die $sigrr->vrfyerrstr;
$sigrr->verify( $packet, $keyrr ) || die $sigrr->vrfyerrstr;
DESCRIPTION
Class for DNS digital signature (SIG) resource records.
In addition to the regular methods inherited from Net::DNS::RR the class contains a method
to sign packets and scalar data strings using private keys (create) and a method for
verifying signatures.
The SIG RR is an implementation of RFC2931. See Net::DNS::RR::RRSIG for an implementation
of RFC4034.
METHODS
The available methods are those inherited from the base class augmented by the type-
specific methods defined in this package.
Use of undocumented package features or direct access to internal data structures is
discouraged and could result in program termination or other unpredictable behaviour.
algorithm
$algorithm = $rr->algorithm;
The algorithm number field identifies the cryptographic algorithm used to create the
signature.
algorithm() may also be invoked as a class method or simple function to perform mnemonic
and numeric code translation.
sigexpiration and siginception times
sigex sigin sigval
$expiration = $rr->sigexpiration;
$expiration = $rr->sigexpiration( $value );
$inception = $rr->siginception;
$inception = $rr->siginception( $value );
The signature expiration and inception fields specify a validity time interval for the
signature.
The value may be specified by a string with format 'yyyymmddhhmmss' or a Perl time()
value.
Return values are dual-valued, providing either a string value or numerical Perl time()
value.
keytag
$keytag = $rr->keytag;
$rr->keytag( $keytag );
The keytag field contains the key tag value of the KEY RR that validates this signature.
signame
$signame = $rr->signame;
$rr->signame( $signame );
The signer name field value identifies the owner name of the KEY RR that a validator is
supposed to use to validate this signature.
signature
sig
$sig = $rr->sig;
$rr->sig( $sig );
The Signature field contains the cryptographic signature that covers the SIG RDATA
(excluding the Signature field) and the subject data.
sigbin
$sigbin = $rr->sigbin;
$rr->sigbin( $sigbin );
Binary representation of the cryptographic signature.
create
Create a signature over scalar data.
use Net::DNS::SEC;
$keypath = '/home/olaf/keys/Kbla.foo.+001+60114.private';
$sigrr = Net::DNS::RR::SIG->create( $data, $keypath );
$sigrr = Net::DNS::RR::SIG->create( $data, $keypath,
sigval => 10
);
$sigrr->print;
# Alternatively use Net::DNS::SEC::Private
$private = Net::DNS::SEC::Private->new($keypath);
$sigrr= Net::DNS::RR::SIG->create( $data, $private );
create() is an alternative constructor for a SIG RR object.
This method returns a SIG with the signature over the data made with the private key
stored in the key file.
The first argument is a scalar that contains the data to be signed.
The second argument is a string which specifies the path to a file containing the private
key as generated using dnssec-keygen, a program that comes with the ISC BIND distribution.
The optional remaining arguments consist of ( name => value ) pairs as follows:
sigin => 20211201010101, # signature inception
sigex => 20211201011101, # signature expiration
sigval => 10, # validity window (minutes)
The sigin and sigex values may be specified as Perl time values or as a string with the
format 'yyyymmddhhmmss'. The default for sigin is the time of signing.
The sigval argument specifies the signature validity window in minutes ( sigex = sigin +
sigval ).
By default the signature is valid for 10 minutes.
o Do not change the name of the private key file. The create method uses the filename
as generated by dnssec-keygen to determine the keyowner, algorithm, and the keyid
(keytag).
verify
$verify = $sigrr->verify( $data, $keyrr );
$verify = $sigrr->verify( $data, [$keyrr, $keyrr2, $keyrr3] );
The verify() method performs SIG0 verification of the specified data against the signature
contained in the $sigrr object itself using the public key in $keyrr.
If a reference to a Net::DNS::Packet is supplied, the method performs a SIG0 verification
on the packet data.
The second argument can either be a Net::DNS::RR::KEYRR object or a reference to an array
of such objects. Verification will return successful as soon as one of the keys in the
array leads to positive validation.
Returns false on error and sets $sig->vrfyerrstr
vrfyerrstr
$sig0 = $packet->sigrr || die 'not signed';
print $sig0->vrfyerrstr unless $sig0->verify( $packet, $keyrr );
$sigrr->verify( $packet, $keyrr ) || die $sigrr->vrfyerrstr;
REMARKS
The code is not optimised for speed.
If this code is still around in 2100 (not a leap year) you will need to check for proper
handling of times after 28th February.
