I'm writing a program that need to load a few other files. is there a way to check if those files are signed or not, without right clicking them and check? I use 300-400 files that change every few days I need to check DLL/EXE/CAB/OCX/MSI (and maybe also vbs/js)
is there a way to check it?
Assuming you want to check if a file is Authenticode signed and that the certificate is trusted you can pinvoke to WinVerifyTrust in Wintrust.dll.
Below is a wrapper (more or less reproduced from here) that can be called as follows:
AuthenticodeTools.IsTrusted(@"path\to\some\signed\file.exe")
Where AuthenticodeTools is defined as follows:
internal static class AuthenticodeTools
{
[DllImport("Wintrust.dll", PreserveSig = true, SetLastError = false)]
private static extern uint WinVerifyTrust(IntPtr hWnd, IntPtr pgActionID, IntPtr pWinTrustData);
private static uint WinVerifyTrust(string fileName)
{
Guid wintrust_action_generic_verify_v2 = new Guid("{00AAC56B-CD44-11d0-8CC2-00C04FC295EE}");
uint result=0;
using (WINTRUST_FILE_INFO fileInfo = new WINTRUST_FILE_INFO(fileName,
Guid.Empty))
using (UnmanagedPointer guidPtr = new UnmanagedPointer(Marshal.AllocHGlobal(Marshal.SizeOf(typeof (Guid))),
AllocMethod.HGlobal))
using (UnmanagedPointer wvtDataPtr = new UnmanagedPointer(Marshal.AllocHGlobal(Marshal.SizeOf(typeof (WINTRUST_DATA))),
AllocMethod.HGlobal))
{
WINTRUST_DATA data = new WINTRUST_DATA(fileInfo);
IntPtr pGuid = guidPtr;
IntPtr pData = wvtDataPtr;
Marshal.StructureToPtr(wintrust_action_generic_verify_v2,
pGuid,
true);
Marshal.StructureToPtr(data,
pData,
true);
result = WinVerifyTrust(IntPtr.Zero,
pGuid,
pData);
}
return result;
}
public static bool IsTrusted(string fileName)
{
return WinVerifyTrust(fileName) == 0;
}
}
internal struct WINTRUST_FILE_INFO : IDisposable
{
public WINTRUST_FILE_INFO(string fileName, Guid subject)
{
cbStruct = (uint)Marshal.SizeOf(typeof(WINTRUST_FILE_INFO));
pcwszFilePath = fileName;
if (subject != Guid.Empty)
{
pgKnownSubject = Marshal.AllocHGlobal(Marshal.SizeOf(typeof(Guid)));
Marshal.StructureToPtr(subject, pgKnownSubject, true);
}
else
{
pgKnownSubject = IntPtr.Zero;
