Example Signature Verification
This is an example of verifying signatures using your Keygen account's public key. You can find your public key within your account's settings page. Verifying response signatures will help prevent simple MITM attacks, where the attacker redirects traffic from your licensing server (e.g. Keygen) to their own locally controlled server, or where you have cached a validation response locally and want to verify its integrity (i.e. it has not been tampered with).
Running the example
First up, configure a few environment variables:
# Keygen product token (don't share this!)
export KEYGEN_PRODUCT_TOKEN="YOUR_KEYGEN_PRODUCT_TOKEN"
# Your Keygen account ID
export KEYGEN_ACCOUNT_ID="YOUR_KEYGEN_ACCOUNT_ID"
# Your Keygen account's public key
export KEYGEN_PUBLIC_KEY=$(printf %b \
'-----BEGIN PUBLIC KEY-----\n' \
'zdL8BgMFM7p7+FGEGuH1I0KBaMcB/RZZSUu4yTBMu0pJw2EWzr3CrOOiXQI3+6bA\n' \
# …
'efK41Ml6OwZB3tchqGmpuAsCEwEAaQ==\n' \
'-----END PUBLIC KEY-----')
You can either run each line above within your terminal session before
starting the app, or you can add the above contents to your ~/.bashrc
file and then run source ~/.bashrc
after saving the file.
Next, install dependencies with yarn
:
yarn
Then run the script with the route you want to fetch:
yarn start '/licenses/442160c6-20d2-44a7-883d-245e38f651fd'
yarn start '/users/dbe63060-eee7-4c87-98fa-f133fb8131fa'
yarn start '/machines?page[number]=1&page[size]=5'
The above commands will only succeed if the signature verification is successful, so be sure to copy your public key correctly. You can find your public key within your account's settings page.
