You probably know by now that Adobe will revoke a compromised code signing certificate in a couple of days. As we seem to have more code signing related security incidents recently, I started to develop a couple of new tools.
AnalyzePESig is a tool to check signatures in PE files, just like Sysinternals’ sigcheck. But with a couple of differences.
First, when a signature is not valid, AnalyzePESig will tell you why and still display information about the invalid signature and related certificates. Second, AnalyzePESig displays more information and third, it is open source.
Here is how you use AnalyzePESig to look for executables signed with that Adobe certificate that will soon be revoked:
analyzepesig -e -v -s -o windows.csv c:\windows
This will produce a CSV list of all executables found in the c:\windows directory.
Filter this list for lines including string fdf01dd3f37c66ac4c779d92623c77814a07fe4c (this is the fingerprint of the compromised certificate):
As you can see, I’ve Flash components signed with this compromised certificate. Now, this does not mean that these executables are compromised. To get a better idea, I can use my virustotal-search tool to search VirusTotal.
And here is another example, JP2KLib.dll, a DLL of Adobe Reader X:
