Verify SOAP XML using a wsse:SecurityTokenReference

See more XML Digital Signatures Examples

This example verifies a SOAP XML Digital Signature where the KeyInfo in the XML Signature is a wsse:SecurityTokenReference to the X.509 certificate embedded elsewhere in the SOAP XML. Java

import com.chilkatsoft.*;

public class ChilkatExample {

  static {
    try {
        System.loadLibrary("chilkat");
    } catch (UnsatisfiedLinkError e) {
      System.err.println("Native code library failed to load.\n" + e);
      System.exit(1);
    }
  }

  public static void main(String argv[])
  {
    boolean success = false;

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

    // The SOAP XML with digital signature verified in this example is available at 
    // https://www.chilkatsoft.com/exampleData/signedSoapBinarySecurityToken.xml

    String signedSoapXmlUrl = "https://www.chilkatsoft.com/exampleData/signedSoapBinarySecurityToken.xml";

    // First, let's get the signed SOAP XML..
    CkHttp http = new CkHttp();
    CkStringBuilder sbXml = new CkStringBuilder();
    success = http.QuickGetSb(signedSoapXmlUrl,sbXml);
    if (success != true) {
        System.out.println(http.lastErrorText());
        return;
        }

    // The signed XML downloaded from the above URL contains the following.
    // Note: Everything we need to verify the signature is already available within the signed XML.
    // The KeyInfo part of the Signature contains a reference to the wsse:BinarySecurityToken
    // For clarity, here is the KeyInfo section extracted from the Signature below:
    // 
    // <ds:KeyInfo><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></ds:KeyInfo>
    // 
    // Chilkat has the capability to automatically follow the SecurityTokenReference.  It will automatically locate the 
    // certificate contained in the wsse:BinarySecurityToken element (in this case identified by Id="x509cert00"), 
    // automatically extracts the public key from the base64 X.509 certificate, and uses it to verify the signature.
