Manually creating a GPG Public Key I want to manually create a GPG public key that can be imported into GPG, i.e. I want to create a file with a Public-Key Packet, a User ID Packet and a Signature Packet (for an example see here). I already managed to correctly create a Public-Key Packet with a User ID Packet and a Signature Packet, except for the hash/signature of the Signature Packet.
I tried to hash data as described in RFC 4880, however the description there is rather imprecise. For example it does not state what exactly constitutes a public key body (is it only n or also the public exponent e?) or if &quot;tags&quot; are to be hashed as well. With tags I mean fixed data preceding certain elements of a packet (e.g. for the public exponent e the tag is 00 11; see here).
Unfortunately the GPG source code and its resulting binary are also not very helpful for understanding what data exactly is hashed. I am currently tracing the export function (i.e. gpg --export) but I can't find the function that is used to hash the data for the Signature Packet (interestingly enough, neither the hash_public_key() function in g10/keyid.c nor the make_keysig_packet() function in g10/sign.c seem to be used for that).
Does anyone know what exactly is hashed and can exemplify it?
Based on the example given in the question (see here) the following (hex-encoded) bytes would be hashed:
