RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Andrew Mike 2019-07-30 20:20:40 UTC 
1. Proposed title of this feature request  
PDF Signature support in Evince
  
3. What is the nature and description of the request? 
Evince currently does not show any signature information if the PDF is signed. Customer wants Evince to show signature information and details, in a similar way LibreOffice Draw does. That way an Evince user could easily verify that the PDF is "valid" by inspecting the signature details.
  
4. Why does the customer need this? (List the business requirements here)  

Customer's employees work with signed PDFs on a daily basis -- not just PDFs signed by the customer itself, but from other public organizations such as the goverment, etc.

5. How would the customer like to achieve this? (List the functional requirements here)

Customer wants Evince to show signature information and details if the PDF is signed.
  
6. For each functional requirement listed, specify how Red Hat and the customer can test to confirm the requirement is successfully implemented.  

When opening a signed PDF with Evince, customer would be advsed that the PDF is signed, if the signature is valid or not, and the custoemr would be able to see information and details of the signature (issuer, CA path to certificate, etc).

7. Is there already an existing RFE upstream or in Red Hat Bugzilla?  

There seem to be some upstream bugs against poppler related to this:

https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/poppler/poppler/issues/64
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/poppler/poppler/issues/464
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/poppler/poppler/merge_requests/124
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/poppler/poppler/issues/800
  
8. Does the customer have any specific timeline dependencies and which release would they like to target (i.e. RHEL5, RHEL6)?  

"The sooner the better".
  
9. Is the sales team involved in this request and do they have any additional input?  

Sales is not involved.
  
10. List any affected packages or components.  

evince, popper (presumptive)
  
11. Would the customer be able to assist in testing this functionality if implemented?

Yes.
Comment 9 Tomas Popela 2022-06-15 11:03:38 UTC 
I'm moving this bug to RHEL 9 as there's no way for us to fix this in RHEL 8 as we will need to break API/ABI to implement this and poppler's ACG level in RHEL 8 is "2" which means that the API/ABI should be stable across the RHEL 8 lifecycle. In RHEL 9 we have the ACG level 4 that allows us to break API/ABI.
