This is because the code then becomes transparent to the algorithm used and much more flexible.</p> <p>The call to <code>EVP_VerifyFinal()</code> internally finalizes a copy of the digest context. This means that calls to <code>EVP_VerifyUpdate()</code> and <code>EVP_VerifyFinal()</code> can be called later to digest and verify additional data.</p> <p>Since only a copy of the digest context is ever finalized the context must be cleaned up after use by calling <code>EVP_MD_CTX_free()</code> or a memory leak will occur.</p> <p> </p> <hr /> <h1><a name="bugs">BUGS</a></h1> <p>Older versions of this documentation wrongly stated that calls to <code>EVP_VerifyUpdate()</code> could not be made after calling <code>EVP_VerifyFinal()</code>.</p> <p>Since the public key is passed in the call to <code>EVP_SignFinal()</code> any error relating to the private key (for example an unsuitable key and digest combination) will not be indicated until after potentially large amounts of data have been passed through <code>EVP_SignUpdate()</code>.</p> <p>It is not possible to change the signing parameters using these function.</p> <p>The previous two bugs are fixed in the newer EVP_DigestVerify*() function.</p> <p> </p> <hr /> <h1><a name="see_also">SEE ALSO</a></h1> <p><em>evp(7)</em>, <em>EVP_SignInit(3)</em>, <em>EVP_DigestInit(3)</em>, <em>evp(7)</em>, <em>HMAC(3)</em>, <em>MD2(3)</em>, <em>MD5(3)</em>, <em>MDC2(3)</em>, <em>RIPEMD160(3)</em>, <em>SHA1(3)</em>, <em>dgst(1)</em></p> <p> </p> <hr /> <h1><a name="copyright">COPYRIGHT</a></h1> <p>Copyright 2000-2020 The OpenSSL Project Authors.
