C# Export Private/Public RSA key from RSACryptoServiceProvider to PEM string - c#

I have an instance of System.Security.Cryptography.RSACryptoServiceProvider, i need to export it's key to a PEM string - like this:
-----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY-----

-----END RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
But there is no such option according to the MSDN documentation, there is only some kind of XML export. I can't use any third party libraries like BouncyCastle.
Is there any way to generate this string?

Please note: The code below is for exporting a private key. If you are looking to export the public key, please refer to my answer given here.
The PEM format is simply the ASN.1 DER encoding of the key (per PKCS#1) converted to Base64. Given the limited number of fields needed to represent the key, it's pretty straightforward to create quick-and-dirty DER encoder to output the appropriate format then Base64 encode it. As such, the code that follows is not particularly elegant, but does the job:
private static void ExportPrivateKey(RSACryptoServiceProvider csp, TextWriter outputStream)
{
if (csp.PublicOnly) throw new ArgumentException("CSP does not contain a private key", "csp");
var parameters = csp.ExportParameters(true);
using (var stream = new MemoryStream())
{
var writer = new BinaryWriter(stream);
writer.Write((byte)0x30); // SEQUENCE
using (var innerStream = new MemoryStream())
{
var innerWriter = new BinaryWriter(innerStream);
EncodeIntegerBigEndian(innerWriter, new byte[] { 0x00 }); // Version
EncodeIntegerBigEndian(innerWriter, parameters.Modulus);
EncodeIntegerBigEndian(innerWriter, parameters.Exponent);
EncodeIntegerBigEndian(innerWriter, parameters.D);
EncodeIntegerBigEndian(innerWriter, parameters.P);
EncodeIntegerBigEndian(innerWriter, parameters.Q);
EncodeIntegerBigEndian(innerWriter, parameters.DP);
EncodeIntegerBigEndian(innerWriter, parameters.DQ);
EncodeIntegerBigEndian(innerWriter, parameters.InverseQ);
var length = (int)innerStream.Length;
EncodeLength(writer, length);
writer.Write(innerStream.GetBuffer(), 0, length);
}
var base64 = Convert.ToBase64String(stream.GetBuffer(), 0, (int)stream.Length).ToCharArray();
outputStream.WriteLine("-----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY-----");
// Output as Base64 with lines chopped at 64 characters
for (var i = 0; i < base64.Length; i += 64)
{
outputStream.WriteLine(base64, i, Math.Min(64, base64.Length - i));
}
outputStream.WriteLine("-----END RSA PRIVATE KEY-----");
}
}
private static void EncodeLength(BinaryWriter stream, int length)
{
if (length < 0) throw new ArgumentOutOfRangeException("length", "Length must be non-negative");
if (length < 0x80)
{
// Short form
stream.Write((byte)length);
}
else
{
// Long form
var temp = length;
var bytesRequired = 0;
while (temp > 0)
{
temp >>= 8;
bytesRequired++;
}
stream.Write((byte)(bytesRequired | 0x80));
for (var i = bytesRequired - 1; i >= 0; i--)
{
stream.Write((byte)(length >> (8 * i) & 0xff));
}
}
}
private static void EncodeIntegerBigEndian(BinaryWriter stream, byte[] value, bool forceUnsigned = true)
{
stream.Write((byte)0x02); // INTEGER
var prefixZeros = 0;
for (var i = 0; i < value.Length; i++)
{
if (value[i] != 0) break;
prefixZeros++;
}
if (value.Length - prefixZeros == 0)
{
EncodeLength(stream, 1);
stream.Write((byte)0);
}
else
{
if (forceUnsigned && value[prefixZeros] > 0x7f)
{
// Add a prefix zero to force unsigned if the MSB is 1
EncodeLength(stream, value.Length - prefixZeros + 1);
stream.Write((byte)0);
}
else
{
EncodeLength(stream, value.Length - prefixZeros);
}
for (var i = prefixZeros; i < value.Length; i++)
{
stream.Write(value[i]);
}
}
}

With the current version of .NET, this can be done in a simple way.
RSA rsa = RSA.Create();
rsa.KeySize = 4096;
// Private key export.
string hdrPrv = "-----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY-----";
string ftrPrv = "-----END RSA PRIVATE KEY-----";
string keyPrv = Convert.ToBase64String(rsa.ExportPkcs8PrivateKey());
string PEMPrv = "${hdrPrv}\n{keyPrv}\n{ftrPrv}";
// Public key export (with a correction for more accuracy from RobSiklos's comment to have the key in PKCS#1 RSAPublicKey format)
string hdrPub = "-----BEGIN RSA PUBLIC KEY-----";
string ftrPub = "-----END RSA PUBLIC KEY-----";
string keyPub = Convert.ToBase64String(rsa.ExportRSAPublicKey());
string PEMPub = "${hdrPub}\n{keyPub}\n{ftrPub}";
// Distribute PEMs.
Note: To have the nicely formatted file with new lines, you can write a little function to do it for you.
With the solution given above, you will have a file with only three lines.

If you're using .NET Core 3.0 this is already implemented out of the box
public string ExportPrivateKey(RSA rsa)
{
var privateKeyBytes = rsa.ExportRSAPrivateKey();
var builder = new StringBuilder("-----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY");
builder.AppendLine("-----");
var base64PrivateKeyString = Convert.ToBase64String(privateKeyBytes);
var offset = 0;
const int LINE_LENGTH = 64;
while (offset < base64PrivateKeyString.Length)
{
var lineEnd = Math.Min(offset + LINE_LENGTH, base64PrivateKeyString.Length);
builder.AppendLine(base64PrivateKeyString.Substring(offset, lineEnd - offset));
offset = lineEnd;
}
builder.Append("-----END RSA PRIVATE KEY");
builder.AppendLine("-----");
return builder.ToString();
}

For anyone else who balked at the original answer's apparent complexity (which is very helpful, don't get me wrong), I thought I'd post my solution which is a little more straightforward IMO (but still based on the original answer):
public class RsaCsp2DerConverter {
private const int MaximumLineLength = 64;
// Based roughly on: http://stackoverflow.com/a/23739932/1254575
public RsaCsp2DerConverter() {
}
public byte[] ExportPrivateKey(String cspBase64Blob) {
if (String.IsNullOrEmpty(cspBase64Blob) == true)
throw new ArgumentNullException(nameof(cspBase64Blob));
var csp = new RSACryptoServiceProvider();
csp.ImportCspBlob(Convert.FromBase64String(cspBase64Blob));
if (csp.PublicOnly)
throw new ArgumentException("CSP does not contain a private key!", nameof(csp));
var parameters = csp.ExportParameters(true);
var list = new List<byte[]> {
new byte[] {0x00},
parameters.Modulus,
parameters.Exponent,
parameters.D,
parameters.P,
parameters.Q,
parameters.DP,
parameters.DQ,
parameters.InverseQ
};
return SerializeList(list);
}
private byte[] Encode(byte[] inBytes, bool useTypeOctet = true) {
int length = inBytes.Length;
var bytes = new List<byte>();
if (useTypeOctet == true)
bytes.Add(0x02); // INTEGER
bytes.Add(0x84); // Long format, 4 bytes
bytes.AddRange(BitConverter.GetBytes(length).Reverse());
bytes.AddRange(inBytes);
return bytes.ToArray();
}
public String PemEncode(byte[] bytes) {
if (bytes == null)
throw new ArgumentNullException(nameof(bytes));
var base64 = Convert.ToBase64String(bytes);
StringBuilder b = new StringBuilder();
b.Append("-----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY-----\n");
for (int i = 0; i < base64.Length; i += MaximumLineLength)
b.Append($"{ base64.Substring(i, Math.Min(MaximumLineLength, base64.Length - i)) }\n");
b.Append("-----END RSA PRIVATE KEY-----\n");
return b.ToString();
}
private byte[] SerializeList(List<byte[]> list) {
if (list == null)
throw new ArgumentNullException(nameof(list));
var keyBytes = list.Select(e => Encode(e)).SelectMany(e => e).ToArray();
var binaryWriter = new BinaryWriter(new MemoryStream());
binaryWriter.Write((byte) 0x30); // SEQUENCE
binaryWriter.Write(Encode(keyBytes, false));
binaryWriter.Flush();
var result = ((MemoryStream) binaryWriter.BaseStream).ToArray();
binaryWriter.BaseStream.Dispose();
binaryWriter.Dispose();
return result;
}
}

Here is a GREAT NEWS, with .NET 7, Microsoft has added a new method to export RSA keys directly to PEM format.
Refer RSA.ExportRSAPrivateKeyPem Method
Below is how you can use it.
using (var rsa = new RSACryptoServiceProvider(2048)) // Generate a new 2048 bit RSA key
{
// RSA keys in PKCS#1 format, PEM encoded
string publicPrivateKeyPEM = rsa.ExportRSAPrivateKeyPem();
string publicOnlyKeyPEM = rsa.ExportRSAPublicKeyPem();
// RSA keys in XML format
string publicPrivateKeyXML = rsa.ToXmlString(true);
string publicOnlyKeyXML = rsa.ToXmlString(false);
// RSA keys in byte array
byte[] publicPrivateKey = rsa.ExportRSAPrivateKey();
byte[] publicOnlyKey = rsa.ExportRSAPublicKey();
}

public static Func<string, string> ToBase64PemFromKeyXMLString= (xmlPrivateKey) =>
{
if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(xmlPrivateKey))
throw new ArgumentNullException("RSA key must contains value!");
var keyContent = new PemReader(new StringReader(xmlPrivateKey));
if (keyContent == null)
throw new ArgumentNullException("private key is not valid!");
var ciphrPrivateKey = (AsymmetricCipherKeyPair)keyContent.ReadObject();
var asymmetricKey = new AsymmetricKeyEntry(ciphrPrivateKey.Private);
PrivateKeyInfo privateKeyInfo = PrivateKeyInfoFactory.CreatePrivateKeyInfo(asymmetricKey.Key);
var serializedPrivateKey = privateKeyInfo.ToAsn1Object().GetDerEncoded();
return Convert.ToBase64String(serializedPrivateKey);
};

BouncyCastle invalid parameter passed to AES init

I have a .net framework 4.5.2 project in which AES 256/GCM/NO padding implementation has to be performed. I found out that framework doesn't support GCM directly hence I tried using BouncyCastle. While passing the params it looks like something is wrong being passed to initialization. Also I wanted to make the Keysize as 256 bit . I took this page as reference
Below is the code which I'm trying :
public class BouncyCastleCustom:ICipherParameters
{
private const string ALGORITHM = "AES";
private const byte AesIvSize = 16;
private const byte GcmTagSize = 16; // in bytes
private readonly CipherMode _cipherMode = CipherMode.GCM;
//private const string _cipherMode = "GCM";
private readonly string _algorithm = ALGORITHM;
public string Encrypt(string plainText, byte[] key)
{
var random = new SecureRandom();
var iv = random.GenerateSeed(AesIvSize);
var keyParameters = CreateKeyParameters(key, iv, GcmTagSize * 8);
var cipher = CipherUtilities.GetCipher(_algorithm);
cipher.Init(true, keyParameters);/*System.ArgumentException: 'invalid parameter passed to AES init - Org.BouncyCastle.Crypto.Parameters.AeadParameters'*/
var plainTextData = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(plainText);
var cipherText = cipher.DoFinal(plainTextData);
return PackCipherData(cipherText, iv);
}
public string Decrypt(string cipherText, byte[] key)
{
var (encryptedBytes, iv, tagSize) = UnpackCipherData(cipherText);
var keyParameters = CreateKeyParameters(key, iv, tagSize * 8);
var cipher = CipherUtilities.GetCipher(_algorithm);
cipher.Init(false, keyParameters);
var decryptedData = cipher.DoFinal(encryptedBytes);
return Encoding.UTF8.GetString(decryptedData);
}
private ICipherParameters CreateKeyParameters(byte[] key, byte[] iv, int macSize)
{
var keyParameter = new KeyParameter(key);
if (_cipherMode == CipherMode.CBC)
{
return new ParametersWithIV(keyParameter, iv);
}
else if (_cipherMode == CipherMode.GCM)
{
return new AeadParameters(keyParameter, macSize, iv);
}
throw new Exception("Unsupported cipher mode");
}
private string PackCipherData(byte[] encryptedBytes, byte[] iv)
{
var dataSize = encryptedBytes.Length + iv.Length + 1;
if (_cipherMode == CipherMode.GCM)
dataSize += 1;
var index = 0;
var data = new byte[dataSize];
data[index] = AesIvSize;
index += 1;
if (_cipherMode == CipherMode.GCM)
{
data[index] = GcmTagSize;
index += 1;
}
Array.Copy(iv, 0, data, index, iv.Length);
index += iv.Length;
Array.Copy(encryptedBytes, 0, data, index, encryptedBytes.Length);
return Convert.ToBase64String(data);
}
private (byte[], byte[], byte) UnpackCipherData(string cipherText)
{
var index = 0;
var cipherData = Convert.FromBase64String(cipherText);
byte ivSize = cipherData[index];
index += 1;
byte tagSize = 0;
if (_cipherMode == CipherMode.GCM)
{
tagSize = cipherData[index];
index += 1;
}
byte[] iv = new byte[ivSize];
Array.Copy(cipherData, index, iv, 0, ivSize);
index += ivSize;
byte[] encryptedBytes = new byte[cipherData.Length - index];
Array.Copy(cipherData, index, encryptedBytes, 0, encryptedBytes.Length);
return (encryptedBytes, iv, tagSize);
}
public enum CipherMode //cannot access BouncyCastle inbuilt CipherMode
{
CBC,
GCM
}
}
static void Main(string[] args)
{
BouncyCastleCustom aes = new BouncyCastleCustom();
var encrypted = aes.Encrypt("testDemo", Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes("mysmallkey1234551298765134567890"));
Console.WriteLine("Encrypted testDemo: " + encrypted);
string decrypted = aes.Decrypt(encrypted, Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes("mysmallkey1234551298765134567890"));
Console.WriteLine("Decrypted: " + decrypted);

My symmetric encryption adds data to my rsa key I want to save and load encrypted

Currently I am trying to implement a save function for my RSA key with the help of bouncycastle. I am running into problems if I try to save my public or private key encrypted and load it afterwards.
As a little example here the original public key:
305C300D06092A864886F70D0101010500034B00304802410096B4751049165D1E046063EA22E8FFA0F90AE1DD997A3876DA5F79C7DE97951F009AC9ACA3EB91114F8A32C04F48293B6665CD6DD5C406C81CD13270A2AB61130203010001
What I get after loading it (it adds 4 zeroes, bigger key means more zeroes added):
305C300D06092A864886F70D0101010500034B00304802410096B4751049165D1E046063EA22E8FFA0F90AE1DD997A3876DA5F79C7DE97951F009AC9ACA3EB91114F8A32C04F48293B6665CD6DD5C406C81CD13270A2AB611302030100010000
I found out it has something to do with my implementation of the symmetric encryption and the padding used there. Normal text no matter how long it is just works fine without extra data getting added.
This is the code I am using for my AES encryption:
Encryption
byte[] outputBytes = new byte[0];
AesEngine aesengine = new AesEngine();
CbcBlockCipher aesblockCipher = new CbcBlockCipher(aesengine);
PaddedBufferedBlockCipher aescipher = new PaddedBufferedBlockCipher(aesblockCipher);
KeyParameter aeskeyParameter = new KeyParameter(Hash.HashDataBlock(password, Hash.HashAlgorithm.SHA3).Bytes);
aescipher.Init(true, aeskeyParameter);
outputBytes = new byte[aescipher.GetOutputSize(inputBytes.Bytes.Length)];
int aeslength = aescipher.ProcessBytes(inputBytes.Bytes, outputBytes, 0);
aescipher.DoFinal(outputBytes, aeslength);
Decryption
byte[] inputBytes = input.Bytes;
byte[] outputBytes = new byte[0];
AesEngine aesengine = new AesEngine();
CbcBlockCipher aesblockCipher = new CbcBlockCipher(aesengine);
PaddedBufferedBlockCipher aescipher = new PaddedBufferedBlockCipher(aesblockCipher);
KeyParameter aeskeyParameter = new KeyParameter(Hash.HashDataBlock(password, Hash.HashAlgorithm.SHA3).Bytes);
aescipher.Init(false, aeskeyParameter);
outputBytes = new byte[aescipher.GetOutputSize(inputBytes.Length)];
int aeslength = aescipher.ProcessBytes(inputBytes, outputBytes, 0);
aescipher.DoFinal(outputBytes, aeslength);
My Functions to save and load the keys. The DataBlock class just converts data to needed formats like UTF8, Base64 or just byte arrays:
public static void SaveKeyEncrypted(DataBlock key, string path, DataBlock password)
{
StreamWriter sw = new StreamWriter(path);
DataBlock encrypted = SymmetricEncryption.Encrypt(key, password, SymmetricEncryption.SymmetricAlgorithms.AES);
sw.Write(encrypted.Base64);
sw.Close();
}
public static DataBlock ReadKeyEncrypted(string path, DataBlock password)
{
StreamReader sr = new StreamReader(path);
DataBlock readData = new DataBlock(sr.ReadLine(), DataBlock.DataType.Base64);
sr.Close();
return SymmetricEncryption.Decrypt(readData, password, SymmetricEncryption.SymmetricAlgorithms.AES);
}

Function to generate a keypair
public static DataBlock[] GenerateKeyPair(KeyPairSize keyPairSize)
{
RsaKeyPairGenerator keyPairGenerator = new RsaKeyPairGenerator();
keyPairGenerator.Init(new KeyGenerationParameters(new SecureRandom(new CryptoApiRandomGenerator()), (int) keyPairSize));

DataBlock[] keyPairData = new DataBlock[2];
keyPairData[0] = new DataBlock(pkInfo.GetDerEncoded());
keyPairData[1] = new DataBlock(info.GetDerEncoded());
return keyPairData;
}
Code to reproduce the error:
DataBlock[] keyPair = AsymmetricEncryption.GenerateKeyPair(AsymmetricEncryption.KeyPairSize.Bits512);
DataBlock pass = new DataBlock("1234", DataBlock.DataType.UTF8);
DataBlock orig = new DataBlock("Hello World", DataBlock.DataType.UTF8);
DataBlock encrypted = AsymmetricEncryption.Encrypt(orig, keyPair[1]);
AsymmetricEncryption.SaveKeyEncrypted(keyPair[0], "D:\\privateenc", pass);
AsymmetricEncryption.SaveKeyEncrypted(keyPair[1], "D:\\publicenc", pass);
DataBlock privateKey = AsymmetricEncryption.ReadKeyEncrypted("D:\\privateenc", pass);
DataBlock publicKey = AsymmetricEncryption.ReadKeyEncrypted("D:\\publicenc", pass);
DataBlock decrypted = AsymmetricEncryption.Decrypt(encrypted, privateKey);
Console.WriteLine(decrypted.UTF8);
The encryption/decryption method is not needed because the error already happens after reading the encrypted key on my harddrive.
Why/where is the extra data added and how can I fix it?
I was able to fix it by adding the initial byte array length of the key to the encrypted text and read it later on. In the read function I cut everything after the original size of the key.
The main problem is still present and this is just a workaround.

-----END RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
I've seen a bunch of other SO articles but they are not exactly what I need.
c# RSA extract public key from private key
Use RSA private key to generate public key?
C# RSA Public Key Output Not Correct
In order to do this I had to combine a couple answers here:
https://stackoverflow.com/a/28407693
https://stackoverflow.com/a/32243171/645283

}
if (value.Length - prefixZeros == 0)
{
EncodeLength(stream, 1);
stream.Write((byte)0);
}
else
{
if (forceUnsigned && value[prefixZeros] > 0x7f)
{
// Add a prefix zero to force unsigned if the MSB is 1
EncodeLength(stream, value.Length - prefixZeros + 1);
stream.Write((byte)0);
}
else
{
EncodeLength(stream, value.Length - prefixZeros);
}
for (var i = prefixZeros; i < value.Length; i++)
{
stream.Write(value[i]);
}
}
}
}
Then, I was able to export (more like piece together) the public key like by calling PemKeyUtils.ExportPublicKey:
using (RSACryptoServiceProvider rsaCsp = PemKeyUtils.GetRSAProviderFromPemString(privateKeyInPemFormat))
{
return PemKeyUtils.ExportPublicKey(rsaCsp);
}
You aren't very clear on what you want. You can use the Bouncycastle library to parse the PEM data and return the RSA keypair, from which you can extract the public key. Here is some sample code:
using System.IO;
using Org.BouncyCastle.Crypto;
using Org.BouncyCastle.OpenSsl;
namespace ImportRSAPrivateKeyPEM
{
class MainClass
{
readonly static string PEM_PRIV_KEY = #"-----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY-----

If you need to convert from Bouncycastle types to .NET types then the methods of Org.BouncyCastle.Security.DotNetUtilities can be used. The Org.BouncyCastle.Asn1.Pkcs.RsaPrivateKeyStructure may also be of use depending on what you want to do.
Unfortunately documentation on the Bouncycastle C# library seems to be pretty thin. There always the source code itself, which is what I use.

C# RSA Public Key Output Not Correct

I am currently trying to generate and send a public RSA key using C#. It should be a 2048 bit long key in PEM format. I have successfully done so using OpenSSL command with the following (some output are shortened):
$ openssl genrsa 2048

The following code is what I use to generate a public key using C#:
// Variables
CspParameters cspParams = null;
RSACryptoServiceProvider rsaProvider = null;
StreamWriter publicKeyFile = null;
string publicKey = "";
try
{
// Create a new key pair on target CSP
cspParams = new CspParameters();
cspParams.ProviderType = 1; // PROV_RSA_FULL
cspParams.Flags = CspProviderFlags.CreateEphemeralKey;
rsaProvider = new RSACryptoServiceProvider(2048, cspParams);
// Export public key
result = ExportPublicKeyToPEMFormat(rsaProvider);
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
}
The ExportPublicKeyToPEMFormat can be found from this thread:

Obviously there is something different with the formats between the two public key.
The OpenSSL key always starst with

My key starts with
"MIIBKwIBAAKCAQEA"
Unfortunately, the code in the answer you referenced isn't really correct - it exports a private key PEM format, but with only the public key fields correctly set, this is not the same as exporting an RSA public key in standard format.
I actually wrote the code in the other answer to that question, and at the time wrote a mode for exporting the public key in the standard format, but didn't include it in that answer as it wasn't required. Here it is:
private static void ExportPublicKey(RSACryptoServiceProvider csp, TextWriter outputStream)
{
var parameters = csp.ExportParameters(false);
using (var stream = new MemoryStream())
{
var writer = new BinaryWriter(stream);
writer.Write((byte)0x30); // SEQUENCE
using (var innerStream = new MemoryStream())
{
var innerWriter = new BinaryWriter(innerStream);
innerWriter.Write((byte)0x30); // SEQUENCE
EncodeLength(innerWriter, 13);
innerWriter.Write((byte)0x06); // OBJECT IDENTIFIER
var rsaEncryptionOid = new byte[] { 0x2a, 0x86, 0x48, 0x86, 0xf7, 0x0d, 0x01, 0x01, 0x01 };
EncodeLength(innerWriter, rsaEncryptionOid.Length);
innerWriter.Write(rsaEncryptionOid);
innerWriter.Write((byte)0x05); // NULL
EncodeLength(innerWriter, 0);
innerWriter.Write((byte)0x03); // BIT STRING
using (var bitStringStream = new MemoryStream())
{
var bitStringWriter = new BinaryWriter(bitStringStream);
bitStringWriter.Write((byte)0x00); // # of unused bits
bitStringWriter.Write((byte)0x30); // SEQUENCE
using (var paramsStream = new MemoryStream())
{
var paramsWriter = new BinaryWriter(paramsStream);
EncodeIntegerBigEndian(paramsWriter, parameters.Modulus); // Modulus
EncodeIntegerBigEndian(paramsWriter, parameters.Exponent); // Exponent
var paramsLength = (int)paramsStream.Length;
EncodeLength(bitStringWriter, paramsLength);
bitStringWriter.Write(paramsStream.GetBuffer(), 0, paramsLength);
}
var bitStringLength = (int)bitStringStream.Length;
EncodeLength(innerWriter, bitStringLength);
innerWriter.Write(bitStringStream.GetBuffer(), 0, bitStringLength);
}
var length = (int)innerStream.Length;
EncodeLength(writer, length);
writer.Write(innerStream.GetBuffer(), 0, length);
}
var base64 = Convert.ToBase64String(stream.GetBuffer(), 0, (int)stream.Length).ToCharArray();
outputStream.WriteLine("-----BEGIN PUBLIC KEY-----");
for (var i = 0; i < base64.Length; i += 64)
{
outputStream.WriteLine(base64, i, Math.Min(64, base64.Length - i));
}
outputStream.WriteLine("-----END PUBLIC KEY-----");
}
}
private static void EncodeLength(BinaryWriter stream, int length)
{
if (length < 0) throw new ArgumentOutOfRangeException("length", "Length must be non-negative");
if (length < 0x80)
{
// Short form
stream.Write((byte)length);
}
else
{
// Long form
var temp = length;
var bytesRequired = 0;
while (temp > 0)
{
temp >>= 8;
bytesRequired++;
}
stream.Write((byte)(bytesRequired | 0x80));
for (var i = bytesRequired - 1; i >= 0; i--)
{
stream.Write((byte)(length >> (8 * i) & 0xff));
}
}
}
private static void EncodeIntegerBigEndian(BinaryWriter stream, byte[] value, bool forceUnsigned = true)
{
stream.Write((byte)0x02); // INTEGER
var prefixZeros = 0;
for (var i = 0; i < value.Length; i++)
{
if (value[i] != 0) break;
prefixZeros++;
}
if (value.Length - prefixZeros == 0)
{
EncodeLength(stream, 1);
stream.Write((byte)0);
}
else
{
if (forceUnsigned && value[prefixZeros] > 0x7f)
{
// Add a prefix zero to force unsigned if the MSB is 1
EncodeLength(stream, value.Length - prefixZeros + 1);
stream.Write((byte)0);
}
else
{
EncodeLength(stream, value.Length - prefixZeros);
}
for (var i = prefixZeros; i < value.Length; i++)
{
stream.Write(value[i]);
}
}
}
On .Net Framework, one simple way to extract the public key from an RSA object is to create a temporary X509Certificate2 object from it and then call the GetPublicKey() method on that, as shown below:
var tempCertRequest = new CertificateRequest("CN=DummyCN", rsa, HashAlgorithmName.SHA256, RSASignaturePadding.Pkcs1);
var tempCert = tempCertRequest.CreateSelfSigned(DateTimeOffset.Now, DateTimeOffset.Now.AddDays(3));
return tempCert.GetPublicKey();
GetPublicKey() will return the public key as a byte[]. You can convert it to Base64 using Convert.ToBase64String() if required.

Try To Code HMAC-SHA256 using C#.Net

i try to coding HMAC-SHA256 Algorithm as Function
HMAC (K,m) = H((K ⊕ opad) ∥ H((K ⊕ ipad) ∥ m))
where
H is a cryptographic hash function,
K is a secret key padded to the right with extra zeros to the input block size of the hash function, or the hash of the original key if it's longer than that block size,
m is the message to be authenticated,
∥ denotes concatenation,
⊕ denotes exclusive or (XOR),
opad is the outer padding (0x5c5c5c…5c5c, one-block-long hexadecimal constant),
ipad is the inner padding(0x363636…3636, one-block-long hexadecimal constant).
and this my code
public static string MyHMACHash(string key , string message)
{
Encoding encoding = Encoding.UTF8;
//var md = System.Security.Cryptography.MD5CryptoServiceProvider.Create();
SHA256 hash = SHA256Managed.Create();
byte[] trans_5C = new byte[32];
byte[] trans_36 = new byte[32];
byte[] b_key = encoding.GetBytes(key);
// TODO: also check if key is to short
if (b_key.Length > 32)
b_key = hash.ComputeHash(b_key);
for (int i = 0; i < 32; i++)
{
trans_5C[i] = 92;
trans_36[i] = 54;
if (i < key.Length)
{
trans_5C[i] ^= b_key[i];
trans_36[i] ^= b_key[i];
}
}
byte[] inner = hash.ComputeHash(trans_36.Concat(encoding.GetBytes(message)).ToArray());
var Fhash = hash.ComputeHash(trans_5C.Concat(inner).ToArray());
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
foreach (byte b in Fhash)
sb.Append(b.ToString("x2"));
string result = sb.ToString(); // = 9036a1a3f654aefeab426e9f7e17288e
return result;
}
but when i try to test this code the result Non-conforming to standard HMAC-SHA256 hashing on the standard internet web sites
Here is the modified version with custom HMAC generation. Main thing to consider is that Input Block Size referred in the K, is the hash algorithm block size; not returned hashed byte length. For SHA256, block size is 64 bytes. I believe you were using 32byte block size. You can find different block size references here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secure_Hash_Algorithm.
public static string MyHMACHash(string key, string message)
{
Encoding encoding = Encoding.UTF8;
//Reference http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secure_Hash_Algorithm
//SHA256 block size is 512 bits => 64 bytes.
const int HashBlockSize = 64;
var keyBytes = encoding.GetBytes(key);
var opadKeySet = new byte[HashBlockSize];
var ipadKeySet = new byte[HashBlockSize];
if (keyBytes.Length > HashBlockSize)
{
keyBytes = GetHash(keyBytes);
}
// This condition is independent of previous
// condition. If previous was true
// we still need to execute this to make keyBytes same length
// as blocksize with 0 padded if its less than block size
if (keyBytes.Length < HashBlockSize)
{
var newKeyBytes = new byte[HashBlockSize];
keyBytes.CopyTo(newKeyBytes, 0);
keyBytes = newKeyBytes;
}
for (int i = 0; i < keyBytes.Length; i++)
{
opadKeySet[i] = (byte)(keyBytes[i] ^ 0x5C);
ipadKeySet[i] = (byte)(keyBytes[i] ^ 0x36);
}
var hash = GetHash(ByteConcat(opadKeySet,
GetHash(ByteConcat(ipadKeySet, encoding.GetBytes(message)))));
// Convert to standard hex string
return hash.Select<byte, string>(a => a.ToString("x2"))
.Aggregate<string>((a, b) => string.Format("{0}{1}", a, b));
}
public static byte[] GetHash(byte[] bytes)
{
using (var hash = new SHA256Managed())
{
return hash.ComputeHash(bytes);
}
}
public static byte[] ByteConcat(byte[] left, byte[] right)
{
if (null == left)
{
return right;
}
if (null == right)
{
return left;
}
byte[] newBytes = new byte[left.Length + right.Length];
left.CopyTo(newBytes, 0);
right.CopyTo(newBytes, left.Length);
return newBytes;
}
