(Objective-C) PKCS11 Find Specific Certificate on Smart Card or USB Token

See more PKCS11 Examples

This example code shows how to find a particular certificate on a smart card or USB token.

Note: This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.88 or later.

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

// Note: Chilkat's PKCS11 implementation runs on Windows, Linux, Mac OS X, and other supported operating systems.

CkoPkcs11 *pkcs11 = [[CkoPkcs11 alloc] init];

// Set your shared lib path -- either a full path to the DLL, .so, or .dylib,
// or just the filename if the driver is in a location that can be automatically found. (Such as in C:\Windows\System32)
pkcs11.SharedLibPath = @"C:/Program Files (x86)/Gemalto/IDGo 800 PKCS#11/IDPrimePKCS1164.dll";

BOOL success = [pkcs11 Initialize];
if (success == NO) {
    NSLog(@"%@",pkcs11.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

// Pass -1 for the slotID to open a session on the first non-empty slot.
int slotID = -1;

// Open a session.
BOOL readWrite = YES;
success = [pkcs11 OpenSession: [NSNumber numberWithInt: slotID] readWrite: readWrite];
if (success == NO) {
    NSLog(@"%@",pkcs11.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

// Make it an authenticated session by calling Login.
// 
// If we don't authenticate, then we won't be able to see the private keys, and thus
// we won't know which certificates have an associated private key stored on the smart card.

// The smart card PIN is passed to the Login method.
// userType 1 indicates a "Normal User".
int userType = 1;
NSString *pin = @"0000";
success = [pkcs11 Login: [NSNumber numberWithInt: userType] pin: pin];

    NSLog(@"%@",pkcs11.LastErrorText);
    success = [pkcs11 CloseSession];
    return;
}

// --------------------------------------------------------------------------
// The FindCert method can find a particular certificate in a number of different ways.
// I'll demonstrate some common ways..

// 1) In many cases you'll be working with a smart card that contains one certificate that is to be used for 
// signing, and it is the certificate that is associated with the private key also stored on the smart card (or USB token).
// There may be other certificates on the card, but these are the issuer certificates in the chain of authentication.
// You're just interested in getting the certificate with the private key.
// You can do it like this:
CkoCert *cert = [[CkoCert alloc] init];
// Pass the keyword "privateKey" in the 1st argument, and an empty string in the 2nd arg.
// This returns the 1st certificate that has a private key.
success = [pkcs11 FindCert: @"privateKey" partValue: @"" cert: cert];
if (success == YES) {
    NSLog(@"%@%@",@"Cert with private key: ",cert.SubjectCN);
}
else {
    NSLog(@"%@",@"No certificates having a private key were found.");
}

// 2) Find a certificate by the Subject Common Name
success = [pkcs11 FindCert: @"subjectCN" partValue: @"Chil application account (8c9be8e0-5544-4cd0-9062-290fbff353a7)" cert: cert];
if (success == YES) {
    NSLog(@"%@%@",@"Found: ",cert.SubjectCN);
}
else {
    NSLog(@"%@%@",@"Not found: ",cert.SubjectCN);
}

// 3) Find a certificate by hex serial number
success = [pkcs11 FindCert: @"serial" partValue: @"5087bf1feda006af54a02f23a851104948acc26f" cert: cert];
if (success == YES) {
    NSLog(@"%@%@",@"Found: ",cert.SerialNumber);
}
else {
    NSLog(@"%@%@",@"Not found: ",cert.SerialNumber);
}

// 4) Find a certificate by hex serial number and Issuer Common Name
success = [pkcs11 FindCert: @"serial:issuerCN" partValue: @"5087bf1feda006af54a02f23a851104948acc26f:Ibanity Production Third Party Application CA" cert: cert];
if (success == YES) {
    NSLog(@"%@%@",@"Found: ",cert.SubjectCN);
}
else {
    NSLog(@"%@%@",@"Not found: ",cert.SubjectCN);
}

// --------------------------------------------------------------------------

// Revert to an unauthenticated session by calling Logout.
success = [pkcs11 Logout];
if (success == NO) {
    NSLog(@"%@",pkcs11.LastErrorText);
    success = [pkcs11 CloseSession];
    return;
}

// When finished, close the session.
// It is important to close the session (memory leaks will occur if the session is not properly closed).
success = [pkcs11 CloseSession];
if (success == NO) {
    NSLog(@"%@",pkcs11.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

NSLog(@"%@",@"Success.");
