Digital Signing Patch for InstallShield Editor included in AdminStudio 2016 SP2 and above
Summary
InstallShield digital signing feature uses a timestamp server from Symantec which is being decommissioned (more details here) and migrated to Digicert. Signing with new DigiCert URL causes breakage in Digital Signing
Symptoms
When signing an installer with SHA-256 digest, using the new Digicert server (http://timestamp.digicert.com), the resulting installer is signed by SHA-256 digest, but the countersignatures are signed with SHA1 due to an incorrect order in which InstallShield calls the signing APIs
