Abstract
A computer system obtains a request to apply a signed patch to a piece of signed executable code. The computer system determines whether the signed patch is allowed to be applied to the signed executable based on a set of patch policies. If the patch policies allow the patch to be applied, the patch is applied to the signed executable code. The computer system generates a new digital signature for the modified executable code thereby allowing the resulting signed patched executable code to be verified and executed by the computer system.
