I am trying to determine the best method for code-signing an executable using Bouncy Castle, managed code, or un-managed code from C#. Since CAPICOM is now deprecated, I imagine one of the SignerSign methods from mssign32.dll is the best way to go if it needs to be done unmanaged.
This answer (https://stackoverflow.com/a/3952235/722078) seems close, but it produces a .p7m file, which, while appearing to be the right size, will not run correctly (obviously renamed to .exe before running).
The solution given by the question-asker here (API/Library to replace signtool.exe) seemed promising and managed, but like Tom Canham mentions in the comments below, "it appears that this is for signing enveloped messages. Authenticode -- the code-signing that signtool does -- is different, which is why the EXE doesn't run after the signing." I receive the same error that Tom does when I sign using either the question-asker's solution or the previously referenced Bouncy Castle solution.
The only option that I have not attempted yet is given here (https://stackoverflow.com/a/6429860/722078), and while it looks promising, I am not positive that it uses "authenticode" code-signing as opposed "enveloped message" code-signing. This answer also has the benefit of not using the CAPICOM interop methods which are now deprecated, so I imagine I will report back on my results using this method today. If this is the best option, could anybody out there speak to the differences between SignerSign, SignerSignEx, and SignerSignEx2 functions that are exported from mssign32.dll? I have read that SignerSignEx2 should be used with Windows 8 and higher...
Long story short, I would like to replicate the ability of signtool.exe to sign an executable given a .exe file, .pfx file, and password like so:
signtool sign /f cert.pfx /p password application.exe
I am looking for the best option to programmatically code-sign an executable (PE if it matters) using authenticode signing, and I would prefer to use bouncy castle or managed code if possible, although I will use something unmanaged if it works and is not currently deprecated.
Thanks!
As far as I can tell, SignSigner and SignSignerEx are available as of Windows XP, which is the oldest operating system I care to support. Because I do not need to worry about Windows App Store publication, this answer is limited to SignSigner and SignSignerEx, although the import for SignSignerEx2 is very similar to SignSignerEx, and I wouldn't expect it to cause any problems.
The following class allows you to sign an executable with a .pfx by calling:
SignWithCert(string appPath, string certPath, string certPassword, string timestampUrl);
It also allows you to sign an executable with a certificate from a key store by calling:
SignWithThumbPrint(string appPath, string thumbprint, string timestampUrl);
If you want to sign using a cert installed into a key store, you may need to update FindCertByThumbPrint(string thumbPrint) to check more key stores than I care to check. 99.5% of the time, our customers sign with a .pfx and not with a thumbprint.
For the sake of illustration, SignWithCert() utilizes SignerSignEx and SignerTimeStampEx, while SignWithThumbPrint() utilizes SignerSign and SignerTimeStamp.
They're easily interchanged. SignerSignEx and SignerTimeStampEx give you back a SIGNER_CONTEXT pointer and allow you to modify the behavior of the functions with the dwFlags argument (if you're signing a portable executable). Valid flag options are listed at here. Basically, if you pass 0x0 as the dwFlags to SignerSignEx, the output will be identical to just using SignerSign. In my case, I imagine I'll be using SignerSign because I don't believe I need a pointer to the signer context for any conceivable reason.
Anyway, here is the class. This is my first time posting code here, so I hope I haven't broken it in formatting.
The code works as expected, and the executable runs fine and signed, BUT the binary output of the signature block differs slightly from the binary output of signtool.exe (in that test, a timestamp was used by neither tool). I attribute this to the fact that signtool.exe appears to use CAPICOM for signing and this uses Mssign32.dll, but all in all, I am pretty pleased with it in the initial set of tests.
The error handling obviously needs improvement.
Thanks to GregS and everybody out there who's posted code samples previously.
Here's the relevant stuff. I will update this block with comments and improvements when I get the chance to do so.
Update 1: Added somewhat better error handling and comments, along with some reformatting of the thumbprint in FindCertByThumbprint(string thumbprint) to allow the cert to be found on Windows 8 and Windows 10 (public preview). Those OSes wouldn't return a match when spaces were left in the thumbprint, so I am now fixing them before searching.
