Hi,
I'm trying to decrypt a DER-encoded CMS object (created by Adobe
Acrobat) with OpenSSL 1.0.2d:
$ openssl cms -decrypt -in recipient.bin -inform DER -inkey
atssecp521r1.key -recip atssecp521r1.pem

The full dumpasn1 output of the file "recipient.bin" is below at the end
of the message. Is this a correct CMS object?
If I compare this to the structure of a CMS object that was generated by
OpenSSL itself, there's a difference in the structure of the
RecipientInfos object. If I understand it correctly, this is the start
of the RecipientInfos object (starting at line 6 of the dumpasn1 output):
SET {
[1] {
SEQUENCE {
INTEGER 3
...
I can match this to the following rules in RFC 5652:
RecipientInfos ::= SET SIZE (1..MAX) OF RecipientInfo
RecipientInfo ::= CHOICE {
ktri KeyTransRecipientInfo,
kari [1] KeyAgreeRecipientInfo,
kekri [2] KEKRecipientInfo,
pwri [3] PasswordRecipientinfo,
ori [4] OtherRecipientInfo }
KeyAgreeRecipientInfo ::= SEQUENCE {
version CMSVersion, -- always set to 3
originator [0] EXPLICIT OriginatorIdentifierOrKey,
ukm [1] EXPLICIT UserKeyingMaterial OPTIONAL,
keyEncryptionAlgorithm KeyEncryptionAlgorithmIdentifier,
recipientEncryptedKeys RecipientEncryptedKeys }
If I dump a CMS object that was created with OpenSSL's CMS tool with the
same certificate as the problematic one, the structure of the
RecipientInfos object looks like this:
SET {
[1] {
INTEGER 3
...
So the "SEQUENCE" element of the KeyAgreeRecipientInfo is not present here.
Another issue in the Acrobat-generated CMS object is the top-level
CMSVersion in the EnvelopedData object being 0. I believe this is wrong
and should be 2, but apparently OpenSSL doesn't care.
