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.

import 'package:chilkat/chilkat.dart';

void main() {
  // 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

  final signedSoapXmlUrl = 'https://www.chilkatsoft.com/exampleData/signedSoapBinarySecurityToken.xml';

  // First, let's get the signed SOAP XML..
  final http = CkHttp();
  final sbXml = CkStringBuilder();
  try {
    http.quickGetSb(signedSoapXmlUrl, sbXml);
  } on ChilkatException catch (e) {
    print(e.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.
