Check Authenticode signature on Windows with Go
Raw
winverify.go
//go:build windows
// Credit is due to "heaths" for his part in this program and inspiration, see: https://gist.github.com/heaths/ebbca7d956f0b42bbb33193f0837e272?permalink_comment_id=5766639#gistcomment-5766639
// This program implements an advanced Windows digital signature verification tool.
// It leverages Windows WinTrust API functions to validate Authenticode signatures on executable files (.exe, .dll, .sys, etc.)
// with support for both standard verification and extended verification modes. The tool provides detailed
// signature information including certificate chains, timestamps, and signature algorithms.
//
// IMPORTANT SECURITY NOTES:
// - This tool extracts real certificate data using Windows CryptoAPI
// - Uses unsafe.Pointer operations with proper validation and bounds checking
// - This tool is designed for Windows platforms only
//
// SECURITY HARDENED:
// - Command-line argument validation (count limits, size limits, character validation)
// - Path traversal prevention with path validation
// - TOCTOU attack prevention through exclusive file access
// - Integer overflow protection in all pointer arithmetic operations
// - Memory safety measures with bounds checking and safe memory copying
// - Thread-safe operations with proper mutex synchronization
// - Resource exhaustion prevention through input validation and limits
// - Technically advanced error handling with security-focused responses
//
// Features:
// - Dual verification modes: WinVerifyTrust and WinVerifyTrustEx
// - Technically advanced signature validation with certificate chain analysis
// - Timestamp verification and detailed certificate information
// - Thread-safe verification with proper Windows API compliance
// - Support for various executable formats (.exe, .dll, .sys, etc.)
//
// Usage:
//
// winverify [-mode=trust|trustex] [-verbose] <file1> [file2] ...
//
// The tool requires Windows and uses official Microsoft WinTrust APIs
// for cryptographic signature verification.
