如何以 PKCS #1、ASN.1 DER 形式加载 RSA 公钥

Question

We have a Go app that generates an RSA key and sends the public key to the client in PKCS #1, ASN.1 DER form.

https://golang.org/pkg/crypto/x509/#MarshalPKCS1PublicKey

When I try to load the same public key in the c++ client using Botan 1.10.17:

try
{
    Botan::AutoSeeded_RNG rng;
    Botan::DataSource_Memory pubKeyMem(publicKey); // here public key is in PKCS #1, ASN.1 DER form
    Botan::RSA_PublicKey *rsaKey = dynamic_cast<Botan::RSA_PublicKey*>(Botan::X509::load_key(pubKeyMem));
    ...
}
catch (std::exception& e)
{
    cout << e.what();
}

I get an exception:

Decoding error: X.509 public key decoding failed

Here is the public key generated by the server:

Answer 1

It seems Botan 1.10.17 expects the public key in the PKIX, ASN.1 DER form. So using x509.MarshalPKIXPublicKey() instead of x509.MarshalPKCS1PublicKey() in Golang made the C++ Botan client work.
