It Was Not Possible To Download [PATCHED] A Cryptographic Signature Vlc

Now, checking the download page for the ReportViewer redistributable, I do notice it says it requires Vista SP2 or higher. Normally I would accept this, but a)I think this has recently changed, and b)downloading and manually installing this redistributable works. It's possible there are parts that do not work on XP/Vista but for my intents and purposes it installs and runs quite well despite their claims.

Examining the installation log file explains the digital signature verification failed. So I manually download the redistributable package onto the Windows XP machine and examine its signature. The signature is there, but the timestamp reports "Not available". Hitting Details also tells me the signing time is "Not available". The file itself is signed by an expired certificate, so naturally verification fails without this timestamp.

I have followed the certificate chain on the countersignature and it ends at "Microsoft Root Certificate Authority 2010". This root certificate appears to be installed in the XP machine. The only thing I can see is the "2011" version of this certificate is also in the "Third-Party Root Certification Authorities" store, while the 2010 is not. I do not know if this is the cause of the problem or normal.

Is there an update to download or a step that can be taken by "normal" users which will allow the timestamp/countersignature to be recognized in XP/Vista? "Normal" users here means someone who is not very computer-literate; I am not referring to administrator rights.

Per RFC3280, timestamp Enhanced Key Usage (EKU) extensions are used tobind the hash of an object to a time. These signed statements showthat a signature existed at a particular point in time. They are usedin code integrity situations when the code signing certificate hasexpired, to verify that the signature was made before the certificateexpired. This issue is caused by a missing timestamp Enhanced Key Usage (EKU) extension during certificate generation and signing of Microsoft core components and software. Some certificates used for two months of 2012 did not contain an X.509 timestamp Enhanced Key Usage (EKU) extension.

I would not be surprised an error like "timestamp not available" would be given even if the signature includes a timestamp when the certificate does not contain a timestamp EKU, because at a certain level that is the case and error messages often lack this sort of detail.

This update will help to ensure the continued functionality of all software that was signed with a specific certificate that did not use a timestamp Enhanced Key Usage (EKU) extension. To extend their functionality, WinVerifyTrust will ignore the lack of a timestamp EKU for these specific X.509 signatures

So when the key is entered in the program will decode the base32, calculate the has over the data, and verify with the public key that the signature in the key is valid (so we can be sure that the key came from out company).

I've found out about Bouncy castle, but I don't see any schnorr implementation in it (In fact, I didn't find much of implementation of if in c#). All my efforts on making a small signature failed (The smallest signature I've managed to create was 56 bytes).

So assuming that the data + signature is, lets say, 64 bytes. My base 32 string will be 64 * 8 / 5, which is 103 chars.combined with extra - for delimitation, and making it a little more readable, we get something which is not readable and cannot be dictated by phone (if needed).

A digital signature is a mathematical scheme for verifying the authenticity of digital messages or documents. A valid digital signature on a message gives a recipient confidence that the message came from a sender known to the recipient.[1][2]

Digital signatures are a standard element of most cryptographic protocol suites, and are commonly used for software distribution, financial transactions, contract management software, and in other cases where it is important to detect forgery or tampering.

Digital signatures are often used to implement electronic signatures, which include any electronic data that carries the intent of a signature,[3] but not all electronic signatures use digital signatures.[4][5] Electronic signatures have legal significance in some countries, including Canada,[6] South Africa,[7] the United States, Algeria,[8] Turkey,[9] India,[10] Brazil, Indonesia, Mexico, Saudi Arabia,[11] Uruguay,[12] Switzerland, Chile[13] and the countries of the European Union.[14][15]

Digital signatures employ asymmetric cryptography. In many instances, they provide a layer of validation and security to messages sent through a non-secure channel: Properly implemented, a digital signature gives the receiver reason to believe the message was sent by the claimed sender. Digital signatures are equivalent to traditional handwritten signatures in many respects, but properly implemented digital signatures are more difficult to forge than the handwritten type. Digital signature schemes, in the sense used here, are cryptographically based, and must be implemented properly to be effective. They can also provide non-repudiation, meaning that the signer cannot successfully claim they did not sign a message, while also claiming their private key remains secret.[16] Further, some non-repudiation schemes offer a timestamp for the digital signature, so that even if the private key is exposed, the signature is valid.[17][18] Digitally signed messages may be anything representable as a bitstring: examples include electronic mail, contracts, or a message sent via some other cryptographic protocol.

Secondly, it should be computationally infeasible to generate a valid signature for a party without knowing that party's private key.A digital signature is an authentication mechanism that enables the creator of the message to attach a code that acts as a signature.The Digital Signature Algorithm (DSA), developed by the National Institute of Standards and Technology, is one of many examples of a signing algorithm.

Other digital signature schemes were soon developed after RSA, the earliest being Lamport signatures,[26] Merkle signatures (also known as "Merkle trees" or simply "Hash trees"),[27] and Rabin signatures.[28]

In 1988, Shafi Goldwasser, Silvio Micali, and Ronald Rivest became the first to rigorously define the security requirements of digital signature schemes.[29] They described a hierarchy of attack models for signature schemes, and also presented the GMR signature scheme, the first that could be proved to prevent even an existential forgery against a chosen message attack, which is the currently accepted security definition for signature schemes.[29] The first such scheme which is not built on trapdoor functions but rather on a family of function with a much weaker required property of one-way permutation was presented by Moni Naor and Moti Yung.[30]

Used directly, this type of signature scheme is vulnerable to key-only existential forgery attack. To create a forgery, the attacker picks a random signature and uses the verification procedure to determine the message, m, corresponding to that signature.[31] In practice, however, this type of signature is not used directly, but rather, the message to be signed is first hashed to produce a short digest, that is then padded to larger width comparable to N, then signed with the reverse trapdoor function.[32] This forgery attack, then, only produces the padded hash function output that corresponds to , but not a message that leads to that value, which does not lead to an attack. In the random oracle model, hash-then-sign (an idealized version of that practice where hash and padding combined have close to N possible outputs), this form of signature is existentially unforgeable, even against a chosen-plaintext attack.[22][clarification needed]

As organizations move away from paper documents with ink signatures or authenticity stamps, digital signatures can provide added assurances of the evidence to provenance, identity, and status of an electronic document as well as acknowledging informed consent and approval by a signatory. The United States Government Printing Office (GPO) publishes electronic versions of the budget, public and private laws, and congressional bills with digital signatures. Universities including Penn State, University of Chicago, and Stanford are publishing electronic student transcripts with digital signatures.

A message may have letterhead or a handwritten signature identifying its sender, but letterheads and handwritten signatures can be copied and pasted onto forged messages.Even legitimate messages may be modified in transit.[33]

With a digital signature scheme, the central office can arrange beforehand to have a public key on file whose private key is known only to the branch office.The branch office can later sign a message and the central office can use the public key to verify the signed message was not a forgery before acting on it.A forger who doesn't know the sender's private key can't sign a different message, or even change a single digit in an existing message without making the recipient's signature verification fail.[33][1][2]

Replays.A digital signature scheme on its own does not prevent a valid signed message from being recorded and then maliciously reused in a replay attack.For example, the branch office may legitimately request that bank transfer be issued once in a signed message.If the bank doesn't use a system of transaction ids in their messages to detect which transfers have already happened, someone could illegitimately reuse the same signed message many times to drain an account.[33]

Non-repudiation,[14] or more specifically non-repudiation of origin, is an important aspect of digital signatures. By this property, an entity that has signed some information cannot at a later time deny having signed it. Similarly, access to the public key only does not enable a fraudulent party to fake a valid signature. 2351a5e196
