openssl_seal
Seal (encrypt) data
(PHP 4 >= 4.0.4, PHP 5)
int openssl_seal ( string data, string &sealed_data, array &env_keys, array pub_key_ids )
openssl_seal() seals (encrypts) data by using RC4 with a randomly generated secret key. The key is encrypted with each of the public keys associated with the identifiers in pub_key_ids and each encrypted key is returned in env_keys. This means that one can send sealed data to multiple recipients (provided one has obtained their public keys). Each recipient must receive both the sealed data and the envelope key that was encrypted with the recipient's public key.
Return Values
Returns the length of the sealed data on success, or FALSE on error.
If successful the sealed data is returned in
sealed_data, and the envelope keys in
env_keys.
Examples
Example 1676. openssl_seal() example
<?php
// $data is assumed to contain the data to be sealed
// fetch public keys for our recipients, and ready them
$fp = fopen("/src/openssl-0.9.6/demos/maurice/cert.pem", "r");
$cert = fread($fp, 8192);
fclose($fp);
$pk1 = openssl_get_publickey($cert);
// Repeat for second recipient
$fp = fopen("/src/openssl-0.9.6/demos/sign/cert.pem", "r");
$cert = fread($fp, 8192);
fclose($fp);
$pk2 = openssl_get_publickey($cert);
// seal message, only owners of $pk1 and $pk2 can decrypt $sealed with keys
// $ekeys[0] and $ekeys[1] respectively.
openssl_seal($data, $sealed, $ekeys, array($pk1, $pk2));
// free the keys from memory
openssl_free_key($pk1);
openssl_free_key($pk2);
?>
