WinVerifyTrust performance degradation

Post by stepmikhaylov »

Encountered degradation of execution time of WinVerifyTrust function calls.
VMProtect 3.0.9 is used.
WinVerifyTrust is used for checking signatures of CAB-files.

Memory/resources protection is applied and +100 binary files are included.
Memory/resources protection gives no difference versus unprotected version.
Including files increases execution time in 4-5 times.
Memory/resources protection and including files increases execution time in 10-15 times.

We have no idea what happens inside WinVerifyTrust, because we are not autors of this API.
