How to verify that my orgainization signed a trusted windows binary?

Question

This is a followup question to question 1072540, \'WinVerifyTrust to check for a specific signature?\'.

I want to write a C++ function Lets call it TrustedByUs

You want the CMSG_SIGNER_INFO_PARAM instead.

You can use this to get the entire certificate by looking up the certificate in the certificate store returned by CryptQueryObject:

CryptMsgGetParam(hMsg, 
                 CMSG_SIGNER_INFO_PARAM, 
                 0, 
                 NULL, 
                 &dwSignerInfo);
PCMSG_SIGNER_INFO pSignerInfo = (PCMSG_SIGNER_INFO) malloc(dwSignerInfo);
CryptMsgGetParam(hMsg, 
                 CMSG_SIGNER_INFO_PARAM, 
                 0, 
                 pSignerInfo, 
                 &dwSignerInfo);

PCCERT_CONTEXT pCertContext = CertFindCertificateInStore(hStore,
                                          ENCODING,
                                          0,
                                          CERT_FIND_SUBJECT_CERT,
                                          (PVOID)pSignerInfo,
                                          NULL);
// Compare with your certificate:
// - check pCertContext->pbCertEncoded (length is pCertContext->cbCertEncoded)

// *OR*
// Compare with your public-key:
// - check pCertContext->pCertInfo->SubjectPublicKeyInfo.Algorithm and
//   pCertContext->pCertInfo->SubjectPublicKeyInfo.PublicKey
