We are talking about different things. You are talking about signatures
i'm talking about if the approve with signing is safe or not
and it is safe - the way its coded now, since an expired cert
can't sign a request because it is catched during signature verification
so the certificate-verification code isn't reached anymore in case of an failure
before...
and an expired cert 'throws' an error
and I'm talking about certs. You can use
$db->getItem (DATATYPE => "VALID_CERTIFICATE", KEY => 123)
and you get an expired certificate without any warnings. If you do this
with DBI then nothing happens. You get a simple undef.
so this is a problem, but i don't use this call anyway
but the dbm interface should be changed then - i think
and i havn't checked what:
my $tmpCert = libGetSignerCertificateDB( SIGNATURE=>$signer );
calls internal... ;o)
