I have prepared an application and website where the customer can set several options for this application before he downloads it. Settings are stored in binary format on the end of the file (appended), then the edited file is sent to the end user. The problem is that the change of "contents" of the file will break the file signature - is there any chance to re-sign this changed file with any command line tools? I've tried to use Microsoft's SignTool, but it does not work properly on Linux.
You can try osslsigncode
To sign an EXE or MSI file you can now do:
osslsigncode sign -certs <cert-file> -key <der-key-file> \
-n "Your Application" -i http://www.yourwebsite.com/ \
-in yourapp.exe -out yourapp-signed.exe
or if you are using a PEM or PVK key file with a password together with a PEM certificate:
osslsigncode sign -certs <cert-file> \
-key <key-file> -pass <key-password> \
-n "Your Application" -i http://www.yourwebsite.com/ \
-in yourapp.exe -out yourapp-signed.exe
or if you want to add a timestamp as well:
osslsigncode sign -certs <cert-file> -key <key-file> \
-n "Your Application" -i http://www.yourwebsite.com/ \
-t http://timestamp.verisign.com/scripts/timstamp.dll \
-in yourapp.exe -out yourapp-signed.exe
You can use a certificate and key stored in a PKCS#12 container:
osslsigncode sign -pkcs12 <pkcs12-file> -pass <pkcs12-password> \
-n "Your Application" -i http://www.yourwebsite.com/ \
-in yourapp.exe -out yourapp-signed.exe
To sign a CAB file containing java class files:
osslsigncode sign -certs <cert-file> -key <key-file> \
-n "Your Application" -i http://www.yourwebsite.com/ \
-jp low \
-in yourapp.cab -out yourapp-signed.cab
