I have tried every method I can imagine, including working from
several other peoples examples but I just can't get the signature on
secure requests working in ruby.
I get the a "400 Bad Request error". Given that it is bad request I am
pretty sure my signature is being constructed incorrectly. Here is my
code given a specific data to sign:
data = "GET https://www.google.com/accounts/AuthSubSessionToken
1208475262 97612217129769266447"
key = OpenSSL::PKey::RSA.new(File.read("config/privkey.pem"))
sig = key.private_encrypt(Digest::SHA1::hexdigest(data))
# at this stage the data looks all crazy: ""\225\037� ~
\275 \225\211Dg\245I\261$\032u`\025�...."
sig = Base64.b64encode(sig.to_s)
This gives sig as: "lR/
mAX69wo2ViURnpUmxJBp1YBXiDTkCgtj9zTXMtjqYg8jnPg0g9FTw3pUt
\nfPVY3MPczOHcmF5NN5+UYuJbwpFMFZ2e+DZHn1gGE+XZznyNqY9tNg3szYAr
\n2okXUp5qYYnTvojiulpWQZqO2lNSo1eLmcNHSWO+79eZuJ1JQlE=\n"
And my Header ends up being:
"Authorization: AuthSub token=\"CKPrudSKERDWzqnw______8B\" sigalg=
\"rsa-sha1\" data=\"GET https://www.google.com/accounts/AuthSubSessionToken
1208475262 97612217129769266447\" sig=\"lR/
mAX69wo2ViURnpUmxJBp1YBXiDTkCgtj9zTXMtjqYg8jnPg0g9FTw3pUt
\nfPVY3MPczOHcmF5NN5+UYuJbwpFMFZ2e+DZHn1gGE+XZznyNqY9tNg3szYAr
\n2okXUp5qYYnTvojiulpWQZqO2lNSo1eLmcNHSWO+79eZuJ1JQlE=\n\""
This is what gives me a bad request. I have tried various different
ways of doing this, the other way of producing the rsa-sha1 signature
that I saw on the net was by changing sig to be:
sig = key.sign(OpenSSL::Digest::SHA1.new, data)
This ended up giving me base 64 encoded signature of:
"NkHzHLAk/PSoWf2Eie1N1DUrTXh6OtNgKl4wa9rLjeWI7Le3E0LNcvsvfRDj
\nYZ9skWLCVwmx45HxZqUSRp/06Upr9MP9oeDCPgLR35CmoVTpQFrdzD5ODt7y
\nSQuEYDn81D1vngMBJHivLjVMZDPTVyzO0xZaTb4pAkEGph/jApM=\n"
Not sure why that should be different, but I can't quite find any
documentation on what exactly the sign method does.
Either way given that I am getting bad request back, I am guessing
this is a fundamental difference between what Google Authsub API
expects and what ruby is through out.
This is with ruby 1.8.5. Running under Rails 1.2.6 (if that's
relevant)
Thanks in advance,
