tutanota/buildSrc/installerSigner.js

/**
 * Utility to codesign the finished Installers.
 * This enables the App to verify the authenticity of the Updates, and
 * enables the User to verify the authenticity of their manually downloaded
 * Installer with the openssl utility.
 *
 * ATTENTION MAC USERS: Safari started to automatically unpack zip files and then delete them,
 * so you'll have to look in your trash to get the original file.
 * once we switch to dmg this won't be necessary anymore, but:
 * https://github.com/electron-userland/electron-builder/issues/2199
 *
 * The installer signatures are created in the following files:
 * https://mail.tutanota.com/desktop/win-sig.bin (for Windows)
 * https://mail.tutanota.com/desktop/mac-sig-dmg.bin (for Mac .dmg installer)
 * https://mail.tutanota.com/desktop/mac-sig-zip.bin (for Mac .zip update file)
 * https://mail.tutanota.com/desktop/linux-sig.bin (for Linux)
 *
 * They allow verifying the initial download via
 *
 *      # get public key from github
 *      wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tutao/tutanota/master/tutao-pub.pem
 *          or
 *      curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tutao/tutanota/master/tutao-pub.pem > tutao-pub.pem
 *      # validate the signature against public key
 *      openssl dgst -sha512 -verify tutao-pub.pem -signature signature.bin tutanota.installer.ext
 *
 * openssl should Print 'Verified OK' after the second command if the signature matches the certificate
 *
 * This prevents an attacker from getting forged Installers/updates installed/applied
 *
 * get pem cert from pfx:
 * openssl pkcs12 -in comodo-codesign.pfx -clcerts -nokeys -out tutao-cert.pem
 *
 * get private key from pfx:
 * openssl pkcs12 -in comodo-codesign.pfx -nocerts -out tutao.pem
 *
 * get public key from pem cert:
 * openssl x509 -pubkey -noout -in tutao-cert.pem > tutao-pub.pem
