RsaKeyParameters pubKey = PublicKeyFactory.CreateKey(
Convert.FromBase64String(base64pubkey)) as RsaKeyParameters;
but this returns exception since FromBase64String accepts only pure base64 string.
How to fix this ? Probably I need to extract key from base64pubkey in binary form to pass to CreateKey
You could try use only:
string base64pubkey = #"MIICnzCCAggCCQDbr9OvJHgzmDANBgkqhkiG9w0BAQUFADCBkzELMAkGA1UEBhMC

I would like to write a small program that sign a string with a Windows Personal User Certificate.
I found that CAPICOM was a solution, but it now a legacy and only a 32bit compatible solution.
Ideally I would like something like:
digest = sign(string, 'myWindowsCertificate');
You could simply use the System.Security.Cryptography.
Let's imagine you want to sign with a WISeKey key present in your Store:
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
using System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates;
using System.Security.Cryptography;
namespace ConsoleApp1
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
X509Store store = new X509Store(StoreName.My, StoreLocation.CurrentUser);
store.Open(OpenFlags.ReadOnly);
foreach (var cert in store.Certificates)
{
string desc = cert.GetNameInfo(X509NameType.SimpleName, true);
if (desc.Contains("WISeKey"))
{
RSA pk = cert.GetRSAPrivateKey();
byte[] buffer = Encoding.Default.GetBytes("Hello World ... !");
byte[] signature = pk.SignData(buffer, HashAlgorithmName.SHA256, RSASignaturePadding.Pkcs1);
System.Console.WriteLine(BitConverter.ToString(signature));
break;
}
}
Console.ReadLine();
}
}
}
I can't get the signature verification working, like it's described here. I'm using BouncyCastle.NetCore 1.8.1.3 and the project is a .NETCoreApp 1.0.
I'm developing on macOS 10.12.1, running dotnet core 1.0.4 and my server is running Ubuntu 16.04.2-x64 running the release version, build as netcore1.0 and ubuntu16.04-x64 app.
The rest of the system runs without problems, except the signature verification.
My validation always returns false.
Here is my service for validating the signature and body:
using System;
using System.IO;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
namespace MySkill.Main.Services
{
public class CertificationValidationService : ICertificationValidationService
{
private const string Algorithm = "SHA1withRSA";
public async Task<bool> IsValidSiganture(Stream body, Stream certData, string signature)
{
var pemReader = new Org.BouncyCastle.OpenSsl.PemReader(new StreamReader(certData));
var cert = (Org.BouncyCastle.X509.X509Certificate)pemReader.ReadObject();
using (var sr = new StreamReader(body))
{
var content = await sr.ReadToEndAsync();
var result = CheckRequestSignature(Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(content), signature, cert);
return result;
}
}
private static bool CheckRequestSignature(byte[] bodyData, string signature, Org.BouncyCastle.X509.X509Certificate cert)
{
byte[] sig = Convert.FromBase64String(signature);
var pubKey = (Org.BouncyCastle.Crypto.Parameters.RsaKeyParameters)cert.GetPublicKey();
var signer = Org.BouncyCastle.Security.SignerUtilities.GetSigner(Algorithm);
signer.Init(false, pubKey);
signer.BlockUpdate(bodyData, 0, bodyData.Length);
return signer.VerifySignature(sig);
}
}
}
Does anybody have a tip, what i'm doing wrong or has used a different framework or apis?
From the code you shared it looks correct. Without seeing the rest of the code I am not sure if the Signature you got is correct. You can take a look at our C# code that passed certification at https://github.com/sophtron/Alexa-Skill-Sophtron and compare against your own to see if there are any differences.
I tried RSACryptoServiceProvider from .net library for signature validation and it had never worked. So I had to switch to BouncyCastle.1.8.1 too and it worked for me.
I have been following the Oauth2 Service account documentation on Googles website. I have also been picking apart Googles .net client libray trying to get this to work.
I have reached the Computing the signature stage.
The privacy key from Google looks like this

My ideas
the dp value seams to be off everything I have read says it should be 128 bytes not 127.
Note:
I am not using the p12. file I am using the Json service account file. Answers using the X509Certificate2 and the p12 key file will not help.

Is there a programatic way of disabling a client app's certificate trust in C#?
You can use X509Certificate Class
and maybe X509Certificate2 Class
Example;
using System;
using System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates;
public class X509
{
public static void Main()
{
// The path to the certificate.
string Certificate = "Certificate.cer";
// Load the certificate into an X509Certificate object.
X509Certificate cert = new X509Certificate(Certificate);
// Get the value.
string resultsTrue = cert.ToString(true);
// Display the value to the console.
Console.WriteLine(resultsTrue);
// Get the value.
string resultsFalse = cert.ToString(false);
// Display the value to the console.
Console.WriteLine(resultsFalse);
}
}
We're trying to generate an X509 certificate (including the private key) programmatically using C# and the BouncyCastle library. We've tried using some of the code from this sample by Felix Kollmann but the private key part of the certificate returns null. Code and unit test are as below:
using System;
using System.Collections;
using Org.BouncyCastle.Asn1;
using Org.BouncyCastle.Asn1.X509;
using Org.BouncyCastle.Crypto;

Just to clarify, an X.509 certificate does not contain the private key. The word certificate is sometimes misused to represent the combination of the certificate and the private key, but they are two distinct entities. The whole point of using certificates is to send them more or less openly, without sending the private key, which must be kept secret. An X509Certificate2 object may have a private key associated with it (via its PrivateKey property), but that's only a convenience as part of the design of this class.
In your first BouncyCastle code example, newCert is really just the certificate and DotNetUtilities.ToX509Certificate(newCert) is built from the certificate only.
Considering that the PKCS#12 format requires the presence of a private key, I'm quite surprised that the following part even works (considering you're calling it on a certificate which can't possibly know the private key):
.Export(System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates.X509ContentType.Pkcs12,
"password");
(gen.Generate(kp.Private) signs the certificate using the private key, but doesn't put the private key in the certificate, which wouldn't make sense.)
If you want your method to return both the certificate and the private key you could either:
Return an X509Certificate2 object in which you've initialized the PrivateKey property
Build a PKCS#12 store and returns its byte[] content (as if it was a file). Step 3 in the link you've sent (mirror) explains how to build a PKCS#12 store.
Returning the byte[] (DER) structure for the X.509 certificate itself will not contain the private key.
If your main concern (according to your test case) is to check that the certificate was built from an RSA key-pair, you can check the type of its public key instead.
I realise this is an old post but I found these excellent articles which go through the process:
