To verify that the responses are coming from us, there is a so-called ".wellknown" endpoint that you can use to access information. Inside this endpoint, you can find the "jwks_uri" which is a path to the keys that can be used to verify that the response you receive is from our server.
An example of a .wellknown endpoint (replace "pfzww" with your Base URL):
https://pfzww.audkenni.is/sso/oauth2/realms/root/realms/audkenni/.well-known/openid-configuration
This endpoint will give you a response similar to this:

responses
There are ready-made tools available for most programming languages that can be used to verify PKCS7 JWT signatures. Below is a small code example in C# that hopefully makes it clearer:
| Code Block |
|---|
privatepublic bool validateSignPKCS7VerifyJwt(string toValidate)token, {string secretKey, string audience, string byte[] fromCMSString = null; issuer) { SignedCms cms = null; try { fromCMSStringbyte[] certificateData = Convert.FromBase64String(toValidatesecretKey); X509Certificate2 cmscertificate = new SignedCmsX509Certificate2(certificateData); X509SecurityKey securityKey cms.Decode(fromCMSString= new X509SecurityKey(certificate); cms.CheckSignature(true// Define token validation parameters var tokenHandler = new JwtSecurityTokenHandler(); } var validationParameters = new TokenValidationParameters catch (Exception u) { ValidateIssuerSigningKey return false;= true, } return true; } |
The PKCS7 signature should contain the certificate of the person who is authenticating/signing. That certificate needs to be verified.

catch (Exception)

To verify the signatures
You receive PKCS7 or PKCS1 signature, depending on which method you are using.
To verify PKCS7 signature
There are ready-made tools available for most programming languages that can be used to verify PKCS7 signatures. Below is a small code example in C# that hopefully makes it clearer:
| Code Block |
|---|
private bool validateSignPKCS7(string toValidate)
{
byte[] fromCMSString = null;
SignedCms cms = null;
try
{
fromCMSString = Convert.FromBase64String(toValidate);
cms = new SignedCms();
cms.Decode(fromCMSString);
cms.CheckSignature(true);
}
catch (Exception u)
{
return false;
}
return true;
} |
The PKCS7 signature should contain the certificate of the person who is authenticating/signing. That certificate needs to be verified.
To verify PKCS1 signature
When our system returns a PKCS1 response, the digital signature and the authenticated user's certificate are included separately. To verify the digital signature, we use:
The user’s certificate
The signature
The Hash string we sent in the beginning of the authentication process (“binding_content” in CIBA, the IDToken7 input in REST API)
There are ready-made tools available for most programming languages that can be used to verify PKCS1 signatures. Below is a small code example in C# that hopefully makes it clearer:
| Code Block |
|---|
private bool validatePKCS1Signature(string signatureFromAudkenni, string hashStringFromAuthenticationRequest, string usersCertFromAudkenni)
{
byte[] orgHash = null;
byte[] signedHash = null;
byte[] certBytes = null;
X509Certificate2 certificate = null;
try
{
orgHash = Convert.FromBase64String(hashStringFromAuthenticationRequest);
signedHash = Convert.FromBase64String(signatureFromAudkenni);
certBytes = Convert.FromBase64String(usersCertFromAudkenni);
certificate = new X509Certificate2(certBytes);
RSA key = (RSA)certificate.PublicKey.Key;
RSAPKCS1SignatureDeformatter formatter = new RSAPKCS1SignatureDeformatter(key);
formatter.SetHashAlgorithm("SHA512");
var result = formatter.VerifySignature(orgHash, signedHash);
return result;
}
catch (CryptographicException e)
{
return false;
}
} |
To verify Certificates
To verify that the user's certificate you receive in the response is correct, you can use our intermediate certificate and the root certificate
