My understanding is that pesign does not do signatures for arbitrary
containers, only PE binaries. I'm also uncertain if pesign does
Authenticode style signing. I'm not sure if Secure Boot signatures are
the same kind of signatures.

osslsigncode is a reimplementation of Windows' signtool that can sign
Windows installers, PE binaries, and CAB files for driver packages.
It's required for shipping signed versions of Fedora Media Writer and
the VirtIO drivers for Windows.
