encoder Module
pki.encoder.CustomTypeDecoder(dct)
class pki.encoder.CustomTypeEncoder(skipkeys=False, ensure_ascii=True, check_circular=True,
allow_nan=True, sort_keys=False, indent=None, separators=None, encoding='utf-8', default=None)
Bases: json.encoder.JSONEncoder
A custom JSONEncoder class that knows how to encode core custom objects.
Custom objects are encoded as JSON object literals (ie, dicts) with one key, 'TypeName' where
'TypeName' is the actual name of the type to which the object belongs. That single key maps to
another object literal which is just the __dict__ of the object encoded.
Reason for ignoring the error: E0202 - An attribute affected in json.encoder line 157 hide this
method reported by pylint:
The error is in json.encoder.JSONEncoder class. There is a default method (which is overridden
here) and also a class attribute self.default initialized in the init method of the class. The
intention of such usage being that a custom default method object can be passed to init when
creating an instance of JSONEncoder, which is then assigned to class's default method. (which is
valid) But pylint raises an issue due to the usage of same name for a method and an attribute in
which case the attribute definition hides the method. The reason and example for the issue: (top

archive_encrypted_data(inst, *args, **kwargs)
Archive a secret (symmetric key or passphrase) on the DRM.
Refer to archive_key() comments for a description of client_key_id, data_type,
key_algorithm and key_size.
The following parameters are also required:
• encrypted_data - which is the data encrypted by a session key (168 bit 3DES
symmetric key)
• wrapped_session_key - the above session key wrapped by the DRM transport
certificate public key.
• the algorithm_oid string for the symmetric key wrap

This function is useful if the caller wants to do their own wrapping of the secret, or if
the secret was generated on a separate client machine and the wrapping was done there.
The function returns a KeyRequestResponse object containing a KeyRequestInfo object with
details about the archival request and key archived.
archive_key(inst, *args, **kwargs)

client ID. If a record for a duplicate active key exists, a BadRequestException is thrown.
data_type can be one of the following:
KeyClient.SYMMETRIC_KEY_TYPE, KeyClient.ASYMMETRIC_KEY_TYPE,
KeyClient.PASS_PHRASE_TYPE
key_algorithm and key_size are applicable to symmetric keys only. If a symmetric key is
being archived, these parameters are required.
private_data is the raw secret to be archived. It will be wrapped and sent to the DRM.
The function returns a KeyRequestResponse object containing a KeyRequestInfo object with
details about the archival request and key archived.

See KRAClient.list_keys for the valid values of status. Returns a KeyInfoCollection
object.
list_requests(inst, *args, **kwargs)
List/Search key requests in the DRM.
See KRAClient.list_requests for the valid values of request_state and request_type.
Returns a KeyRequestInfoCollection object.
modify_key_status(inst, *args, **kwargs)
Modify the status of a key
process_returned_key(inst, *args, **kwargs)
Decrypt the returned key and place in key.data
The data will either by encrypted using an encryption algorithm - in which case, the key
data will contain an encryption algorithm OID, or it will be key wrapped - in which case,
the key data will contain a key wrap mechanism name.
Only one of these should be present. If we are talking to an older server, and none is
present, we will assume encryption.
recover_key(inst, *args, **kwargs)
Create a request to recover a secret.
To retrieve a symmetric key or passphrase, the only parameter that is required is the
keyId. It is possible (but not required) to pass in the session keys/passphrase and
nonceData for the retrieval at this time. Those parameters are documented in the docstring
for retrieve_key below.
To retrieve an asymmetric key, the keyId and the the base-64 encoded certificate is
required.
reject_request(inst, *args, **kwargs)
Reject a secret recovery request.
retrieve_key(inst, *args, **kwargs)
Retrieve a secret (passphrase or symmetric key) from the DRM.
This method will retrieve a key from the KRA given the key_id or request_id (one of which
must be specified). The data is returned as a KeyData object (which is recast to a Key
object).
If request_id is specified, then the value of key_id is ignored. Exceptions will be thrown
if the caller is not the originator of the request, or the request is not approved.
If key_id is specified instead, the following behavior applies:
• If the key can be retrieved synchronously - ie. only one agent's approval is required,
then the KeyData will include the secret.
• If the key cannot be retrieved synchronously - ie. if more than one approval is needed,
then the KeyData object will include the request ID for a recovery request that was
created on the server. When that request is approved, callers can retrieve the key using
retrieve_key() and setting the request_id.
To ensure data security in transit, the data will be returned encrypted by a session key
(168 bit 3DES symmetric key) - which is first wrapped (encrypted) by the public key of the
DRM transport certificate before being sent to the DRM. The parameter
trans_wrapped_session_key refers to this wrapped session key.
If the trans_wrapped_session_key is not provided by caller, the method will call
CryptoProvider methods to generate and wrap the session key. The function will return the
KeyData object with a private_data attribute which stores the unwrapped key information.
If the trans_wrapped_session_key is provided by the caller, the method will simply pass the
data to the KRA, and will return the secret wrapped in the session key. The secret will
still need to be unwrapped by the caller. The function will return the KeyData object,
where the KeyData structure includes the wrapped secret and some nonce data to be used as a
salt when unwrapping.
retrieve_key_by_passphrase(inst, *args, **kwargs)
Retrieve a secret (passphrase or symmetric key) from the DRM using a passphrase.
This function generates a key recovery request, approves it, and retrieves the secret
referred to by key_id. This assumes that only one approval is required to authorize the
recovery.
The secret is secured in transit by wrapping the secret with a passphrase using PBE
encryption.
There are two ways of using this function:
1. A passphrase is provided by the caller.
In this case, CryptoProvider methods will be called to create the data to securely send
the passphrase to the DRM. Basically, three pieces of data will be sent:
• the passphrase wrapped by a 168 bit 3DES symmetric key (the session key). This is
referred to as the parameter session_wrapped_passphrase.
• the session key wrapped with the public key in the DRM transport certificate. This is
referred to as the trans_wrapped_session_key.
• ivps nonce data, referred to as nonce_data
The function will return the tuple (KeyData, unwrapped_secret)
2. The caller provides the trans_wrapped_session_key, session_wrapped_passphrase and
nonce_data.
In this case, the data will simply be passed to the DRM. The function will return the
secret encrypted by the passphrase using PBE Encryption. The secret will still need to
be decrypted by the caller.
The function will return the tuple (KeyData, None)
retrieve_key_by_pkcs12(inst, *args, **kwargs)
Retrieve an asymmetric private key and return it as PKCS12 data.
This function generates a key recovery request, approves it, and retrieves the secret
referred to by key_id in a PKCS12 file. This assumes that only one approval is required to
authorize the recovery.
This function requires the following parameters: - key_id : the ID of the key -
certificate: the certificate associated with the private key - passphrase: A passphrase for
the pkcs12 file.
The function returns a KeyData object.
retrieve_key_data(inst, *args, **kwargs)
Retrieve a secret from the DRM.
@param: data - a KeyRecoveryRequest containing the keyId of the secret being retrieved, the
request_id of the approved recovery request and a wrapping mechanism. More details at
KRAClient.retrieve_key.
Returns a KeyData object containing the wrapped secret.
set_crypto_algorithms(inst, *args, **kwargs)
set_transport_cert(transport_cert_nick)
Set the transport certificate for crypto operations

util Module
Module containing utility functions and classes for the Dogtag python code
pki.util.chmod(path, perms)
Change permissions of a file or folder recursively.
pki.util.chown(path, uid, gid)
Change ownership of a file or folder recursively.
pki.util.copy(source, dest)
Copy a file or a folder and its contents.
pki.util.copydirs(source, dest)
Copy a folder and its parents while preserving their attributes.
pki.util.copyfile(source, dest, overwrite=True)
Copy a file or link while preserving its attributes.
pki.util.copytree(src, dst, symlinks=False, ignore=None)
Recursively copy a directory tree using copy2().
PATCH: This code was copied from 'shutil.py' and patched to
allow 'The destination directory to already exist.'
If exception(s) occur, an Error is raised with a list of reasons.
If the optional symlinks flag is true, symbolic links in the source tree result in symbolic links
in the destination tree; if it is false, the contents of the files pointed to by symbolic links
are copied.
The optional ignore argument is a callable. If given, it is called with the src parameter, which
is the directory being visited by copytree(), and names which is the list of src contents, as
returned by os.listdir():
callable(src, names) -> ignored_names
Since copytree() is called recursively, the callable will be called once for each directory that
is copied. It returns a list of names relative to the src directory that should not be copied.
Consider this example code rather than the ultimate tool.
pki.util.customize_file(input_file, output_file, params)
Customize a file with specified parameters.
pki.util.load_properties(filename, properties)
pki.util.read_environment_files(env_file_list=None)
pki.util.store_properties(filename, properties)
