Recover forgotten author certificate password

Hi,

I can't seem to remember anymore the password I set for an author certificate that I used to sign an application. The eclipse IDE remembers the password and still continues to sign packages successfully. Does anybody know where the IDE is saving this password? I tried searching through the tizen-sdk and tizen-sdk-data folders but couldn't find anything. I'd appreciate any help.

Thanks!

Hi rgngl,

 

Path of the certificate and password (as asterisks) are avaialble @ IDE's Menu > Window > Preferences > Tizen sDK > Security Profiles. For obvious reasons IDE will not display the password of a certificate stored in the Security Profile ;)

However, you may give a try to hack and display the password field contents by using a password revelation tool. Please share if you were successfull to do so :)

 

If not, the simplest way would be to repalce the earlier certificate with a new one, as mentioned by scion above.

Hi,

I managed to find the stored passwords in the file <WORKSPACE>/.metadata/.plugins/org.tizen.common.sign/profiles.xml. But of course, the passwords are stored in encrypted format. I started digging through the Tizen IDE sources and took the methods use the decrypt those passwords.

In case someone else would find themselves in the same situation, here's the code:
