Damaged app after Info.list is edited

I'm getting a "... app is damaged and can't be opened" alert, presumably from MacOS Gatekeeper, when trying to open an app on which I modified the Info.plist file.

I simply added this :

CFBundleURLTypes, CFBundleURLName and CFBundleURLSchemes

I tried editing the plist with a texte editor and Xcode, same error occurs. If I remove the above items from the plist, the app opens normally. The app is signed correctly, am I supposed to sign the plist as well ?

Testing with : MacBook Pro, MacOS 10.12.2, AIR SDK 23, Captive runtime

Any ideas ?

I think issue with signatures of published app. Try to resign it after your plist was edited
