The CryptVerifyDetachedMessageSignature function verifies a signed message's signature.

C# Signature:

    [DllImport("Crypt32.dll", SetLastError = true)]
    static internal extern bool CryptVerifyDetachedMessageSignature(
    internal extern bool CryptVerifyDetachedMessageSignature(
        ref CRYPT_VERIFY_MESSAGE_PARA pVerifyPara,
        int dwSignerIndex,
        byte[] pbDetachedSignBlob,
        int cbDetachedSignBlob,
        int cToBeSigned,
        IntPtr[] rgpbToBeSigned,
        int[] rgcbToBeSigned,
        IntPtr ppSignerCert);

VB Signature:

Declare Function CryptVerifyDetachedMessageSignature Lib "crypt32.dll" (TODO) As TODO

User-Defined Types:

None.

Notes:

None.

Sample Code:

    Marshal.Copy(messageData, 0, buffer, messageData.Length);
    IntPtr[] rgpbToBeSigned = new IntPtr[1] { buffer };
    int[] rgcbToBeSigned = new int[1] { messageData.Length };
