How to retrieve files digital signature information? - c++

Question

I have searched for a way to retrieve information from a digital signed PE file. I need the publisher, publisher link , issuer name and subject name. I need winapi / c / c++ code (functions) and i need a fast method , i don't need to check if the signature is valid or not.

Answer 1

Here is code that I wrote for a project of mine that will do this. It returns the details in a struct of type NSIGINFO. Feel free to use it - no attribution necessary, but I would appreciate it if you would leave the copyright intact.
If there's any functions missing (I had to consolidate things from a couple of different places so I may have missed something) please let me know and I'll make the necessary tweaks.
Let me know how this works for you. Good luck.

Answer 2

Microsoft provides a way to do it in this support link: How To Get Information from Authenticode Signed Executables
You can use the WinVerifyTrust() API to verify an Authenticode signed
executable.
Although a signature is verified, a program may also have to do the
following:
Determine the details of the certificate that signed the
executable.
Determine the date and time that the file was time
stamped.
Retrieve the URL link associated with the file.
Retrieve the timestamp certificate.
This article demonstrates how to use
CryptQueryObject() API to retrieve detailed information from an
Authenticode signed executable.
