I have tried evote - very nice, I'll try to use it in our school.
In evote/views/default/ballot_verifier.py I found:
# this is the code that verifies the signature
public_key = rsa.PublicKey.load_pkcs1(pk_pem)
if rsa.verify(ballot, signature, public_key)*==None*:
print 'valid'
else:
print 'invalid'
But rsa.verify returns True if there is a match and throws an exception if
not.
An invalid public key also throws an exception.
Therefore I think it should be something like
# this is the code that verifies the signature
*try:*
public_key = rsa.PublicKey.load_pkcs1(pk_pem)
if rsa.verify(ballot, signature, public_key):
print 'valid'
else: # maybe not necessary
print 'invalid' # maybe not necessary
*except:*
print 'invalid'
