Class SshSignRequest

Namespace

SshSharp

Assembly

SshSharp.dll

One signature asked of an SshKeySigner: the algorithm, the data, and what the signature is for, so a signer can apply a policy (a key service that allows authentication only, say), log what it signs, or ask its user.

Constructors

SshSignRequest(string, ReadOnlyMemory<byte>, SshSignaturePurpose)

Creates a request (SshSharp makes them; this is for testing a signer).

Properties

Algorithm

The signature algorithm. It fixes the hash: SHA-256 for rsa-sha2-256 and ecdsa-sha2-nistp256, SHA-384 for nistp384, SHA-512 for rsa-sha2-512 and nistp521; Ed25519 signs the data itself.

Data

The data to sign: for authentication, the session identifier and the login request; for a file signature, the SSHSIG structure holding the namespace and the file's hash. It is valid only until the signing task completes; copy it to keep it.

Namespace

For a FileSignature, its namespace (for example git or file); otherwise null.

Purpose

What the signature is for.
