type +.Fa nid +to the +.Fa unauthenticatedAttributes +list of +.Fa si , +and it adds a new ASN.1 ANY object of type +.Fa attrtype +with the given +.Fa value +to the new attribute. +Ownership of the +.Fa value +is transferred into the new attribute object, so the calling code +must not +.Xr free 3 +the +.Fa value . +If the list already contains an unauthenticated attribute of type +.Fa nid +before the call, the new attribute replaces the old one +instead of being appended to the end of the list. +.Pp +.Fn PKCS7_set_attributes +frees the +.Fa unauthenticatedAttributes +list of +.Fa si +and all the attributes contained in it and replaces it with a deep copy of +.Fa sk . +.Pp +.Fn PKCS7_get_attribute +retrieves the first ASN.1 ANY member of the attribute of type +.Fa nid +from the +.Fa unauthenticatedAttributes +list of +.Fa si . +.Pp +The behaviour of +.Fn PKCS7_add_signed_attribute , +.Fn PKCS7_set_signed_attributes , +and +.Fn PKCS7_get_signed_attribute +is identical except that they operate on the list of +.Fa authenticatedAttributes . +.Pp +The normal way to use +.Fn PKCS7_add_signed_attribute +is to first create a +.Vt SignedInfo +object with +.Xr PKCS7_sign 3 +using the +.Dv PKCS7_PARTIAL +or +.Dv PKCS7_STREAM +flag, retrieve the +.Vt PKCS7_SIGNER_INFO +object with +.Xr PKCS7_get_signer_info 3 +or add an additional one with +.Xr PKCS7_sign_add_signer 3 , +call +.Fn PKCS7_add_signed_attribute +for each desired additional attribute, then do the signing with +.Xr PKCS7_final 3 +or with another finalizing function. +.Pp +The four remaining functions are wrappers around +.Fn PKCS7_add_signed_attribute . +.Pp +.Fn PKCS7_add_attrib_content_type +sets the +.Dv NID_pkcs9_contentType +attribute to +.Fa coid , +which specifies the content type of the +.Vt ContentInfo +value to be signed. +This attribute is mandatory and automatically added by +.Xr PKCS7_sign 3 +and +.Xr PKCS7_sign_add_signer 3 +unless the +.Dv PKCS7_NOATTR +flag is present. +Objects suitable as +.Fa coid +arguments can for example be obtained with +.Xr OBJ_nid2obj 3 . +If +.Fa coid +is +.Dv NULL , +the content type defaults to +.Dv NID_pkcs7_data . +.Pp +.Fn PKCS7_add1_attrib_digest +sets or replaces the +.Dv NID_pkcs9_messageDigest +attribute, which is the message digest of the contents octets +of the DER-encoding of the content field of the +.Vt ContentInfo +value being signed, to a copy of +.Fa md , +which is assumed to be +.Fa mdlen +bytes long. +If +.Fa mdlen +is -1, then +.Fn strlen md +is used instead of +.Fa mdlen . +This attribute is mandatory and automatically added by +.Xr PKCS7_dataFinal 3 +and +.Xr PKCS7_final 3 . +.Pp +.Fn PKCS7_add0_attrib_signing_time +sets or replaces the optional +.Dv NID_pkcs9_signingTime +attribute to +.Fa t , +specifying the time at which the signer performed the signing process. +Ownership of +.Fa t +is transferred into the new attribute object, so the calling code +must not +.Xr free 3 +.Fa t . +If +.Fa t +is +.Dv NULL , +a new +.Vt ASN1_TIME +structure is allocated. +This attribute is automatically added by +.Xr PKCS7_dataFinal 3 +and +.Xr PKCS7_final 3 . +.Pp +.Fn PKCS7_add_attrib_smimecap +sets or replaces the optional +.Dv NID_SMIMECapabilities +attribute, indicating algorithms the sender is prepared to handle. +The +.Fa cap +pointer is not stored in the new attribute object and can be passed to +.Fn sk_X509_ALGOR_pop_free +after the call. +This attribute is automatically added by +.Xr PKCS7_sign 3 +and +.Xr PKCS7_sign_add_signer 3 +unless the +.Dv PKCS7_NOATTR +or +.Dv PKCS7_NOSMIMECAP +flag is present. +.Sh RETURN VALUES +.Fn PKCS7_add_attribute , +.Fn PKCS7_set_attributes , +.Fn PKCS7_add_signed_attribute , +.Fn PKCS7_set_signed_attributes , +.Fn PKCS7_add_attrib_content_type , +.Fn PKCS7_add1_attrib_digest , +.Fn PKCS7_add0_attrib_signing_time , +and +.Fn PKCS7_add_attrib_smimecap +return 1 on success or 0 on failure. +The most common reason for failure is lack of memory. +.Fn PKCS7_add_attribute +and +.Fn PKCS7_add_signed_attribute +also fail if +.Fa nid +is invalid, and +.Fn PKCS7_add_attrib_content_type +if +.Fa si +already contains an authenticated attribute of type +.Dv NID_pkcs9_contentType . +.Pp +.Fn PKCS7_get_attribute +and +.Fn PKCS7_get_signed_attribute +return an internal pointer to an ASN.1 ANY object or +.Dv NULL +on failure. +They fail if +.Fa nid +is invalid, if the respective list in +.Fa si +contains no attribute of the requested type, or if an invalid element +is found in the list before finding the attribute of the requested type. +.Sh SEE ALSO +.Xr ASN1_TIME_new 3 , +.Xr ASN1_TYPE_new 3 , +.Xr OBJ_nid2obj 3 , +.Xr PKCS7_final 3 , +.Xr PKCS7_get_signer_info 3 , +.Xr PKCS7_new 3 , +.Xr PKCS7_sign 3 , +.Xr

by RFC 2315. +It succeeds even when +.Fa sk +is empty, leaving +.Fa si +in a state that violates the standard. +.Pp +.Fn PKCS7_add0_attrib_signing_time +does not validate +.Fa t +beyond checking that it is well-formed per RFC 5652, section 11.3. +In particular, it may set the signing time to the future +or to the remote past. +.Sh BUGS +A function to remove individual attributes from these lists
