I need to load the following RSA public key from a file for use with the RSACryptoServiceProvider class. How can I do this?
-----BEGIN PUBLIC KEY-----
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX/syEKqEkMtQL0+d
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX+izR

Just call the 'RSA' method with the text you want to encrypt and you're done.
You can create an RSACryptoServiceProvider
from a PEM file using the following class (GetRSAProviderFromPemFile
method).
Warning: Don't just copy code from StackOverflow without verification! Especially not crypto code! This code has bugs (see comments). You may want to write and run tests before using this in production (if you really have no better option). I refuse to edit the code to fix it, as it would be just as unreliable as before without tests and an active maintainer.

If you're talking about an X509 certificate:

byte[] certBytes = new byte[fs.Length];
fs.Read(certBytes, 0, (Int32)fs.Length);

EDITED after the comment of @hkproj done in "7/16/2012 15:04:58 Z":
Looking around here I found "Reading PEM RSA Public Key Only using Bouncy Castle". I guess what you want is this:
using (StreamReader reader = File.OpenText(@"c:\RSA.txt"))
{
Org.BouncyCastle.OpenSsl.PemReader pr =
new Org.BouncyCastle.OpenSsl.PemReader(reader);
Org.BouncyCastle.Utilities.IO.Pem.PemObject po = pr.ReadPemObject();
Console.WriteLine("PemObject, Type: " + po.Type);
Console.WriteLine("PemObject, Length: " + po.Content.Length);
}
However, with your file I get an error: System.IO.IOException : base64 data appears to be truncated
.
So changing your file to something like:
-----BEGIN PUBLIC KEY-----
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX/syEKqEkMtQL0+d
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX+izR
KbGMRtur2TYklnyVkjeeHfAggo8vWQmWesnOG55vQYHbOOFoJbk0EkwEr5R/PbKm
byXPPN8zwnS5/XXXXXXXXXXXXZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
-----END PUBLIC KEY-----
The result is:
PemObject, Type: PUBLIC KEY
PemObject, Length: 192
As of .Net 5.0 you can import an RSA public key from a string like so:
var rsaPublicKey = RSA.Create();
rsaPublicKey.ImportFromPem(publicKeyString);
