TX signature verification (derive z value with TX having mutiple inputs)

[akaki]

Hello,

I would like to verify a signature for a given input of a transaction having multiple inputs and 1 output.
My calculations work in case of 1 input and 1 output.

My question is close to the one in this topic: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5327054.0/ However, I still need help to know where I make errors.


For example, let's consider this TX=3c457f53a327aec79a851b19679bd9a2825d848f3bf11c2f9785375c9818b201
I tried to check the signature (s) for the first input.

From the raw transaction, I was able to fill the fields that make the message (m):

version                                                     01000000

Inputs count (=2*UTXO)                            02
1st UTXO
     previous TX hash                                  2cce4dc9e7a2de90bacf13073c1b256c714c73f5f42f8d28d291ae40c58b0f21
     index of UTXO in previous TX                 00000000
     scriptSig (with prev. TX scriptPubKey)    19+76a914+e3e67d92d6334b0274beb908067eddd09d37900d+88ac+ffffffff
2nd UTXO
     previous TX hash                                 1e4f4d473a0488f3afccecf7e4facb09f1ef67975c6901af001663c79823437c
     index of UTXO in previous TX                00000000
     scriptSig (empty)                                 01+00+ffffffff

Output count                                            01
Value of 1st UTXO (=14791 Satoshis)         C739000000000000
Output script                                            19+76a914+232fc87e0fb5171b82bace360eed8e35ae59f056+88ac
lock time + hash code type                        00000000+01000000

I'm not sure about the fields, nor about their contents, so I need confirmation or correction ! Assuming it's OK, than we concatenate all:

I'm sure about the implementation of last formula using ecdsa bceause it works with a single input transaction. Thus, the probleme is in the fields and/or their filling.

I made a little debugging with bitcoin-java library, with the help of blockstream api, to obtain the full hex of the transaction, and obtained the following:

m=01000000022cce4dc9e7a2de90bacf13073c1b256c714c73f5f42f8d28d291ae40c58b0f21000000001976a914e3e67d92d6334b0274beb908067eddd09d37900d88acffffffff1e4f4d473a0488f3afccecf7e4facb09f1ef67975c6901af001663c79823437c0000000000ffffffff01d0390000000000001976a914232fc87e0fb5171b82bace360eed8e35ae59f05688ac0000000001000000

z=b7855748a719df6a358a6d4d83b47d6848403830481273eb81a1cde1a32343f8

So, if my m is correct, the mistake is in the 2nd input scriptSig field and the value.

Then you should start at the beginning and first learn what each of those fields mean and how they are encoded.
https://developer.bitcoin.org/devguide/transactions.html
https://developer.bitcoin.org/reference/transactions.html#raw-transaction-format

     scriptSig (empty)                                 01+00+ffffffff

Value of 1st UTXO (=14791 Satoshis)         C739000000000000

You have 2 mistakes.
1. Your signature script is not empty, it is OP_0. You should set it to empty.
That is why I said you should start at the beginning. Each script has a length (yours is 0x01 byte) followed by the script as bytes (your script is 0x00). To set it to empty you have to set the length to 0 and not have any extra bytes.

2. You changed the amount from 14800 to 14791.

Thanks pooya87 and bitcoinbeto. It solved it.
