How can I convert a BouncyCastle X509Certificate to an X509Certificate2?
Easy!!
using B = Org.BouncyCastle.X509; //Bouncy certificates
using W = System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates;
W.X509Certificate2 certificate = new W.X509Certificate2(pdfCertificate.GetEncoded());
And now I can validate certificate chain in the server:
W.X509Chain ch = new W.X509Chain();
ch.ChainPolicy.RevocationMode = W.X509RevocationMode.NoCheck;
if (!ch.Build(certificate))
res |= ErroresValidacion.CAInvalida;
Useful to validate pdf certifcates extracted with iTextSharp.
From https://github.com/dotnet/corefx/wiki/ApiCompat :
Most users of X509Certificate and X509Certificate2 objects assume that the object is immutable except for the Reset()/Dispose() methods, the use of Import violates this assumption.
In other words, trying to use import throws an exception in .net core. You should now use:
new X509Certificate(cert.GetEncoded());
but, according to the .net API analyzer (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/standard/analyzers/api-analyzer),
warning PC001: X509Certificate2.X509Certificate2(byte[]) isn't supported on macOS
