I am trying to generate an X509Certificate2 object using the Microsoft AES Cryptographic Provider:
CALG_AES_256 (0x00006610) 256 bit AES. This algorithm is supported by the Microsoft AES Cryptographic Provider.
My problem is that my call to CryptGenKey(providerContext, 0x6610, 0x4000001, out cryptKey) fails with the following error:
An unhandled exception of type 'System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException' occurred in mscorlib.dll
Additional information: Invalid flags specified. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80090009)
The flags I am using are (1024 << 16) | 1). Unless I am mistaken, should this not produce a 1024-bit exportable key according to the documentation on MSDN? What is the problem with my approach here?
My code is as follows:
using System;
using System.Security;
using System.Runtime.InteropServices;
using System.Runtime.CompilerServices;
using System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates;

To call it, you may use: X509Certificate2Helper.GenerateSelfSignedCertificate("CN = Example");.
Update:
If I use 0x1 for the flags:
CryptAcquireContextW(out providerContext, containerName, "Microsoft Enhanced RSA and AES Cryptographic Provider", 0x18, 0x8);
CryptGenKey(providerContext, 0x6610, 0x1, out cryptKey);
It gets past CryptGenKey, but then fails on CertCreateSelfSignCertificate with:
An unhandled exception of type 'System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException' occurred in mscorlib.dll
Additional information: Key does not exist. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8009000D)
Must this key-set be passed in differently? What is wrong with the way I have created it above?
The problem is with CryptGenKey function call. In the Algid parameter, you should pass either 0x1 (for RSA key exchange) or 0x2 (RSA digital signature). You don't need other values. And key length value should be 0x4000001 (with exportable key). Also, I noticed that you pass incorrect provider type when you instantiate CryptKeyProviderInformation object. Replace this line:
CryptKeyProviderInformation keyProvider = new CryptKeyProviderInformation {
pwszContainerName = containerName,
dwProvType = 1,
dwKeySpec = 1
};
with this line:
CryptKeyProviderInformation keyProvider = new CryptKeyProviderInformation {
pwszContainerName = containerName,
dwProvType = 0x18,
dwKeySpec = 1
};
Use this formula
(keySize * 65536) | 1;
For a 2048bit key it is 0x08000001. According to documentation of CryptGenKey method you can use RSA1024BIT_KEY to generate 1024bit key. I've tried looking for the define and found this (although it was on Adobe site :) )
#define RSA1024BIT_KEY 0x04000000
