smartcard usage: Encrypt and Sign appears to succeded with wrong PIN

Reported by steve | February 22nd, 2017 @ 05:37 PM

smartcard required to reproduce

User reported on Tender:

It is possible for an "encrypt and sign" operation to fail without the user being notified, producing an encrypted but unsigned file. I can reproduce this by providing the wrong PIN to a smart card, it probably also applies to signing keys with passphrase.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Select a file to encrypt using the Finder services menu
2. Sign and encrypt the file to yourself
3. Enter the wrong PIN for the signing key

There is a dialog saying that the encryption was successful.
An encrypted but unsigned file is created.

Expected
There is a dialog saying that the signing failed.
There is no dialog indicating any kind of success.
There is no file created.
