fido_cbor_info_new() function returns a pointer to a
newly allocated, empty fido_cbor_info_t type. If memory
cannot be allocated, NULL is returned.
The fido_cbor_info_free() function
releases the memory backing *ci_p, where
*ci_p must have been previously allocated by
fido_cbor_info_new(). On return,
*ci_p is set to NULL. Either
ci_p or *ci_p may be NULL, in
which case fido_cbor_info_free() is a NOP.
The fido_dev_get_cbor_info() function
transmits a CTAP_CBOR_GETINFO command to
dev and fills ci with attributes
retrieved from the command's response. The
fido_dev_get_cbor_info() function may block.
The fido_cbor_info_decrypt() function
decrypts the encrypted fields of ci using the
persistent PIN/UV Auth token referenced by ppuat,
which must point to at least ppuat_len bytes.
The fido_cbor_info_aaguid_ptr(),
fido_cbor_info_attfmts_ptr(),
fido_cbor_info_cfgcmds_ptr(),
fido_cbor_info_encid_ptr(),
fido_cbor_info_id_ptr(),
fido_cbor_info_encstate_ptr(),
fido_cbor_info_state_ptr(),
fido_cbor_info_extensions_ptr(),
fido_cbor_info_pin_policy_url_ptr(),
fido_cbor_info_protocols_ptr(),
fido_cbor_info_reset_transports_ptr(),
fido_cbor_info_transports_ptr(), and
fido_cbor_info_versions_ptr() functions return
pointers to the authenticator attestation GUID, supported attestation
formats, supported authenticator config commands, encrypted identifier,
decrypted identifier, encrypted credential store state, decrypted credential
store state, supported extensions, PIN complexity policy URL, PIN protocol,
transports for authenticator reset, transports, and CTAP version strings of
ci. The corresponding length of a given attribute can
be obtained by fido_cbor_info_aaguid_len(),
fido_cbor_info_attfmts_len(),
fido_cbor_info_cfgcmds_len(),
fido_cbor_info_encid_len(),
fido_cbor_info_id_len(),
fido_cbor_info_encstate_len(),
fido_cbor_info_state_len(),
fido_cbor_info_extensions_len(),
fido_cbor_info_pin_policy_url_len(),
fido_cbor_info_protocols_len(),
fido_cbor_info_reset_transports_len(),
fido_cbor_info_transports_len(), or
fido_cbor_info_versions_len(). The supported
attestation formats, encrypted identifier, PIN complexity policy URL, and
transports for authenticator reset attributes are CTAP 2.2 additions. The
supported authenticator config commands and encrypted credential store state
attributes are CTAP 2.3 additions.
The fido_cbor_info_options_name_ptr() and
fido_cbor_info_options_value_ptr() functions return
pointers to the array of option names and their respective values in
ci. The length of the options array is returned by
fido_cbor_info_options_len().
The fido_cbor_info_algorithm_count()
function returns the number of supported algorithms in
ci. The
fido_cbor_info_algorithm_cose() function returns the
COSE identifier of algorithm idx in
ci, or 0 if the COSE identifier is unknown or unset.
The fido_cbor_info_algorithm_type() function returns
the type of algorithm idx in ci,
or NULL if the type is unset. Please note that the first algorithm in
ci has an idx (index) value of
0.
The fido_cbor_info_certs_name_ptr() and
fido_cbor_info_certs_value_ptr() functions return
pointers to the array of certification names and their respective values in
ci. The length of the certifications array is returned
by fido_cbor_info_certs_len().
The fido_cbor_info_maxmsgsiz() function
returns the maximum message size attribute of ci.
The fido_cbor_info_maxcredbloblen()
function returns the maximum “credBlob” length in bytes
supported by the authenticator as reported in ci.
The fido_cbor_info_maxcredcntlst()
function returns the maximum supported number of credentials in a single
credential ID list as reported in ci.
The fido_cbor_info_maxcredidlen() function
returns the maximum supported length of a credential ID as reported in
ci.
The fido_cbor_info_maxrpid_minpinlen()
function returns the maximum number of RP IDs that may be passed to
fido_dev_set_pin_minlen_rpid(3),
as reported in ci. The minimum PIN length attribute is
a CTAP 2.1 addition. If the attribute is not advertised by the
authenticator, the
fido_cbor_info_maxrpid_minpinlen() function returns
zero.
The fido_cbor_info_maxlargeblob() function
returns the maximum length in bytes of an authenticator's serialized
largeBlob array as reported in ci.
The fido_cbor_info_maxpinlen() function
returns the maximum PIN length enforced by the authenticator as reported in
ci. The maximum PIN length attribute is a CTAP 2.2
addition. If the attribute is not advertised by the authenticator, the
fido_cbor_info_maxpinlen() function returns
zero.
The fido_cbor_info_minpinlen() function
returns the minimum PIN length enforced by the authenticator as reported in
ci. The minimum PIN length attribute is a CTAP 2.1
addition. If the attribute is not advertised by the authenticator, the
fido_cbor_info_minpinlen() function returns
zero.
The fido_cbor_info_pin_policy() function
returns information about whether an additional PIN complexity policy is
enforced by the authenticator, as reported by ci. The
PIN complexity policy attribute is a CTAP 2.2 addition. The value is 1 if an
additional policy is enforced, 0 if no such policy is enforced, or -1 if the
feature is not supported by the authenticator.
The fido_cbor_info_fwversion() function
returns the firmware version attribute of ci.
The fido_cbor_info_uv_attempts() function
returns the number of UV attempts that the platform may attempt before
falling back to PIN authentication. If 1, then all
fido_dev_get_uv_retry_count(3)
retries are handled internally by the authenticator and the platform may
only attempt non-PIN UV once. The UV attempts attribute is a CTAP 2.1
addition. If the attribute is not advertised by the authenticator, the
fido_cbor_info_uv_attempts() function returns
zero.
The fido_cbor_info_uv_count_since_pin()
function returns the number of built-in UV operations since the last PIN
entry. The UV count since last PIN entry attribute is a CTAP 2.2 addition.
If the attribute is not advertised by the authenticator, the
fido_cbor_info_uv_count_since_pin() function returns
-1.
The fido_cbor_info_uv_modality() function
returns a bitmask representing different UV modes supported by the
authenticator, as defined in the FIDO Registry of Predefined Values and
reported in ci. See the
FIDO_UV_MODE_* definitions in
<fido/param.h> for the set
of values defined by libfido2 and a brief description of each. The UV
modality attribute is a CTAP 2.1 addition. If the attribute is not
advertised by the authenticator, the
fido_cbor_info_uv_modality() function returns
zero.
The fido_cbor_info_rk_remaining() function
returns the estimated number of additional resident/discoverable credentials
that can be stored on the authenticator as reported in
ci. The estimated number of remaining resident
credentials is a CTAP 2.1 addition. If the attribute is not advertised by
the authenticator, the fido_cbor_info_rk_remaining()
function returns -1.
The fido_cbor_info_new_pin_required()
function returns whether a new PIN is required by the authenticator as
reported in ci. If
fido_cbor_info_new_pin_required() returns true,
operations requiring PIN authentication will fail until a new PIN is set on
the authenticator. The
fido_dev_set_pin(3) function
can be used to set a new PIN.
The fido_cbor_info_long_touch_reset()
function returns true if a long touch is required to reset the
authenticator. The long touch for reset attribute is a CTAP 2.2 addition. If
the attribute is not advertised by the authenticator, the
fido_cbor_info_long_touch_reset() function returns
false.
A complete example of how to use these functions can be found in the example/info.c file shipped with libfido2.
fido_dev_get_cbor_info() and
fido_cbor_info_decrypt() are defined in
<fido/err.h>. On success,
FIDO_OK is returned.
The fido_cbor_info_aaguid_ptr(),
fido_cbor_info_encid_ptr(),
fido_cbor_info_encstate_ptr(),
fido_cbor_info_extensions_ptr(),
fido_cbor_info_protocols_ptr(),
fido_cbor_info_transports_ptr(),
fido_cbor_info_versions_ptr(),
fido_cbor_info_options_name_ptr(), and
fido_cbor_info_options_value_ptr() functions return
NULL if the respective field in ci is absent. If not
NULL, returned pointers are guaranteed to exist until any API function that
takes ci without the const qualifier
is invoked.
