How can I make openssl doesn't add a signed attribute "signingTime" when I sign a cms/cades singnature?

Hello Antonio,


Thanks for your answer.So there is no way to not add the "signingTime" attribute? Is there a plan to make the attribute optional in the near future?


Regards.

Hello Shiyao,

the signing time attribute has always been considered mandatory or in
any case useful and only with CAdES optional and even with PAdES not
allowed.
A request similar to yours has already been received (see
https://mta.openssl.org/pipermail/openssl-users/2017-February/005240.html)
I also believe that CMS API flag would be useful that allows
suppression of the signing-time attribute.

In openssl libs, signing-time attribute is set in the function CMS_SignerInfo_sign. But I can't find a way to control it not to set  signing-time attribute. So I want to know if there is a way to not to set signing-time attribute or delete this attribute without changing the openssl source code.
