Authenticode Sign using Smartcard or USB Token

See more Code Signing Examples

Demonstrates how to Authenticode sign an EXE or DLL using a smartcard or USB token, such as a Yubikey.

Note: Chilkat's code signing class was added in v9.5.0.97

  // First create the following JSON to specify that SHA256 is to be used,
  // and provide timestamp server information.

  // {
  //   "hashAlg": "sha256",
  //   "timestampToken": {
  //     "enabled": true,
  //     "tsaUrl": "http://timestamp.digicert.com",
  //     "requestTsaCert": true,
  //     "hashAlg": "sha256"
  //   }
  // }

  json.updateString('timestampToken.tsaUrl', 'http://timestamp.digicert.com');
  json.updateBool('timestampToken.requestTsaCert', true);

  // The only difference in signing with a smartcard or USB token
  // is that the cert is loaded from a smartcard or USB token, instead of a PFX or from elsewhere
  // such as from the Windows certificate store.
  final cert = CkCert();

  // Yubico YubiKey OTP+FIDO+CCID 0, default PIN = 123456
  cert.smartCardPin = '123456';

  // Assuming you have the Yubikey inserted into the USB on the computer...
  // and there is only 1 signing certificate on the Yubikey, then just load from
  // the "smartcard".  (assuming you don't have additional smartcards or USB tokens plugged in)
  try {
    cert.loadFromSmartcard('');
  } on ChilkatException catch (e) {
    print(e.lastErrorText);
    return;
  }

  // If the smartcard/token has several possible certificates that can be used for signing,
  // then see the online documentation for the LoadFromSmartcard method,
  // and also see the online documentation and examples for Chilkat Pkcs11 and ScMinidriver.
  // There are many possible ways to load a Chilkat certificate object with a cert (and associated private key)
  // from a variety of sources.  The only coding difference for any signing function in Chilkat,
  // whether it be a PDF, XmlDSig, CMS, etc. is in how the cert is loaded.

  // You can sign .exe or .dll files.
  final exePath = 'C:/someOtherDir/HelloWorld.exe';

  final signer = CkCodeSign();

  // If successful, the following call will apply the signature to the EXE (or DLL).
  try {
    signer.addSignature(exePath, cert, json);
