I tried that test file and it chokes several asn1 parsing tools. It looks like the attribute is added OK and then things go badly amiss after it. This would be the case if you'd added the PKCS#7 structure along with some trailing data, for example if the length was wrong you passed to ASN1_STRING_set(). Could you send or post the octet string version: it is much easier to confirm that's the case with that. Thanks for your comments, here you're the octet string version.The content inside de octet string is the same the length of the file. This file is generated with the same code that use to the previous files the only difference is that for this version I'm using PKCS7_add_attribute(si, NID_pkcs7_signed, V_ASN1_OCTET_STRING,(void *)oct)  instead of using PKCS7_add_attribute(si, NID_pkcs7_signed, V_ASN1_SEQUENCE,(void *)oct).
