Additional notes

(Please edit this page to include any of your own useful hints and tips for fixing this error.)

This error indicates that the certificate used to verify a binary with the imgverify command is not a code-signing certificate. A certificate used for code-signing must include the codeSigning extended key usage.

Things to try:

Check that your certificate includes the codeSigning extended key usage. For example, to check the certificate codesign.crt:

  $ openssl x509 -in codesign.crt -noout -text
  ...
     X509v3 extensions:
          X509v3 Key Usage:
              Digital Signature
          X509v3 Extended Key Usage:
              Code Signing
  ...

Generate a new code-signing certificate including the codeSigning extended key usage. If you are using OpenSSL to generate the certificate, then you need to include the following extensions:
```
  keyUsage=digitalSignature
  extendedKeyUsage=codeSigning
```

A certificate used for code-signing must also include the digitalSignature key usage.
