Description

The Set Object Attribute Mechanism denoted CKM_SET_ATTRIBUTES is a TICKET mechanism used to modify the attributes of a key. It does not take a parameter.

The ticket specifies the Digest of the key/object to modify and the new attribute values. The ticket is digitally signed and the certificate used to verify the signature must be contained in the CKA_ADMIN_CERT attribute of the key object being modified.

This mechanism is only used with the CT_PresentTicket command.
