[xmlsec] Custom CRL

Dear *,

I'm using the C API to write perl bindings to xmlsec, I'm currently just interested in using the signature validation, since I don't currently care about signing.

I've been able to successfully validate a signature going through the examples, however, I now need to add a custom CRL (Certificate Revocation List), which will be published by the root-ca one or two times a day.

I added the following code to my validator:


  /* initialize CRL */

  /* if a CRLFILE was passed, load it */
  X509_CRL *crl=NULL;
  
  if(crlfile != NULL){
    
      crl=__load_crl(crlfile);
      
      if(crl==NULL){
        result=-1;
        goto done;
      }
      
      xmlSecKeyDataStorePtr x509Store=NULL;
      
      x509Store = xmlSecKeysMngrGetDataStore(mngr, xmlSecOpenSSLX509StoreId);
      if(x509Store == NULL) {
        fprintf(stderr, "Cannot get key store to open CRL\n");
        goto done;
      }
      
            
      if(xmlSecOpenSSLX509StoreAdoptCrl(x509Store, crl ) < 0){
         fprintf(stderr, "Cannot Add CRL to keyStore\n");
          goto done;
      }
  }



However, it yields no results when performing the actual validation, if the signature is valid, but the certificate has been revoked, xmlSecDSigCtxVerify() will still validate.

Any thoughts?
