Constant Detail

EXPIRED

Constant

public static const EXPIRED:String = "expired"

Language Version:

ActionScript 3.0

Runtime Versions:

AIR 2

The certificate is outside its valid period.

Indicates that certificate validation processing was attempted, but failed because the validity period of the certificate is either before or after the current date. On some operating systems, the notYetValid status is reported when the current date is before the validity period of the cerificate. On other operating systems, the expired status is reported in both cases.

INVALID

Constant

public static const INVALID:String = "invalid"

Language Version:

ActionScript 3.0

Runtime Versions:

AIR 2

An invalid certificate.

Indicates that certificate validation processing was attempted, but failed. This is the generic faliure status that is reported when a more specific certificate status cannot be determined.

INVALID_CHAIN

Constant

public static const INVALID_CHAIN:String = "invalidChain"

Language Version:

ActionScript 3.0

Runtime Versions:

AIR 2

A root or intermediate certificate in this certificate's chain is invalid.

Indicates that certificate validation processing was attempted, but failed because the certificate's trust chain was invalid.

NOT_YET_VALID

Constant

public static const NOT_YET_VALID:String = "notYetValid"

Language Version:

ActionScript 3.0

Runtime Versions:

AIR 2

The certificate is not yet valid.

Indicates that a certificate is not yet valid. The current date is before the notBefore date/time of the certificate

PRINCIPAL_MISMATCH

Constant

public static const PRINCIPAL_MISMATCH:String = "principalMismatch"

Language Version:

ActionScript 3.0

Runtime Versions:

AIR 2

The certificate common name does not match the expected host name.

Indicates that certificate validation processing was attempted, but failed because the certificate's common name does not match the fully qualified domain name of the host.

REVOKED

Constant

public static const REVOKED:String = "revoked"

Language Version:

ActionScript 3.0

Runtime Versions:

AIR 2

The certificate has been revoked.

Indicates that certificate validation processing was attempted, but failed because the certificate has been revoked. On some operating systems, the revoked status is also reported when the certificate (or its root certificate) has been added to the list of untrusted certificates on the client computer.

TRUSTED

Constant

public static const TRUSTED:String = "trusted"

Language Version:

ActionScript 3.0

Runtime Versions:

AIR 2

A valid, trusted certificate.

Indicates that a certificate has not expired, has not failed a revocation check, and chains to a trusted root certificate.

UNKNOWN

Constant

public static const UNKNOWN:String = "unknown"

Language Version:

ActionScript 3.0

Runtime Versions:

AIR 2

The validity of the certificate is not known.

Indicates that certificate validation processing has not been performed yet on a certificate.

UNTRUSTED_SIGNERS

Constant

public static const UNTRUSTED_SIGNERS:String = "untrustedSigners"

Language Version:

ActionScript 3.0

Runtime Versions:

AIR 2

The certificate does not chain to a trusted root certificate.

Indicates that certificate validation processing was attempted, but that the certificate does not chain to any of the root certificates in the client trust store. On some operating systems, the untrustedSigners is also reported if the certificate is in the list of untrusted certificates on the client computer.
