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.

  //  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.
