Verify signature

Compute HMAC-SHA256 over timestamp + "." + rawBody using your secret. Compare to header (without the sha256= prefix) with constant-time equality, and reject if timestamp is too old (e.g., > 5 minutes).

// Node (TypeScript)
import crypto from 'node:crypto';

function verify(req: any, rawBody: Buffer, secret: string): boolean {
  const ts = req.headers['x-status-webhook-timestamp'];
  const sig = String(req.headers['x-status-webhook-signature'] || '').replace(/^sha256=/, '');
  if (!ts || !sig) return false;
  const now = Math.floor(Date.now()/1000);
  if (Math.abs(now - Number(ts)) > 300) return false; // 5m
  const mac = crypto.createHmac('sha256', secret).update(String(ts)).update('.').update(rawBody).digest('hex');
  return crypto.timingSafeEqual(Buffer.from(mac, 'hex'), Buffer.from(sig, 'hex'));
}

// Rust (axum-ish)
use hmac::{Hmac, Mac};
use sha2::Sha256;

fn verify(ts: &str, sig_hdr: &str, body: &[u8], secret: &str) -> bool {
    let sig = sig_hdr.strip_prefix("sha256=").unwrap_or(sig_hdr);
    if let Ok(ts_int) = ts.parse::() {
        if (chrono::Utc::now().timestamp() - ts_int).abs() > 300 { return false; }
    } else { return false; }
    let mut mac = Hmac::::new_from_slice(secret.as_bytes()).unwrap();
    mac.update(ts.as_bytes());
    mac.update(b".");
    mac.update(body);
    let calc = hex::encode(mac.finalize().into_bytes());
    subtle::ConstantTimeEq::ct_eq(calc.as_bytes(), sig.as_bytes()).into()
}
