Since I didn't exactly follow the "22 bytes" part I looked at it one
more time; I got curious. It turned out I accidentally cut off part of
the inner header when I intended to strip the outer header, silly me. I
went too quickly. What works for me is:
- Take the User Attribute Packet
- Strip off the header: 1 byte tag, and in my case, 2 bytes length
(lengths are encoded on 1, 2 or 5 bytes)
- Hash what's left
So:
$ gpg --export KEYID | gpgsplit
Take a file named *.attribute
Is the file smaller than 194 bytes? Wow, small attribute. Drop the first
two bytes.
Is the file between 194 and 8386 bytes inclusive? Drop the first three.
If it's larger than 8386 bytes, drop the first six bytes.
And hash the rest of the file.
$ dd if=002839-017.attribute bs=1 skip=3 status=none|gpg --print-md RIPEMD160
For a real implementation, it's better to inspect the length field
rather than reverse-compute its own length based on the file size.
The 22 bytes added goes in reverse: 2 octets encoded length apparently,
appropriate for the usual JPEG file smaller than a bit over 8 KiB, and
then 01 10 00 01 01 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 for the header
bits before the JPEG file.

Python:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
b32s = "ybndrfg8ejkmcpqxot1uwisza345h769"
def b32enc(i):
s = ""
while i:
s = b32s[i & 0x1f] + s
i >>= 5
return s
def b32dec(s):
out = 0
for c in s:
out = (out << 5) + b32s.index(c)
return out
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
If the encoded string is shorter than expected, prepend y's :-). It's
the simplest code that sort-of works. There might be more issues, it's
really bare-bones.
HTH,
Peter.
