About:
Libjcat is a library designed to parse and process Jcat files, which are used for storing firmware update metadata and digital signatures. It provides a robust API for integrating Jcat support into applications, enabling secure verification of update artifacts. This library is essential for developers building secure firmware management systems.
Key Features:
  • Parses Jcat file formats (JSON-based)
  • Verifies digital signatures for security
  • Provides a C API for integration
  • Supports multiple compression formats
Use Cases:
  • Integrating secure firmware update verification into applications
  • Parsing metadata from Jcat files for system management tools
Alternatives:
  • fwupd – fwupd uses libjcat internally; libjcat is the lower-level library for Jcat handling.
