// I am creating file using file byte array, bind password to it and attached this file to email, i got below error

Are you sure that you are receiving a valid PDF document in byte array? Please share the sample PDF document which you are obtaining after below step:

File.WriteAllBytes(tempSourceFile, fileBytes);

We will test the scenario in our environment and address it accordingly.

It is hard to determine the error cause without replicating the issue in our environment. There is a possibility that bytes are getting corrupted in your code routine. Please try to share a sample console application that is able to reproduce the error. This way we can try to replicate it in our environment and address it accordingly.
