public static final class UniversalKeyStore.PKCS12JKSKeyStore extends UniversalKeyStore
Oracle has changed the JDK default KeyStore format from "JKS" to "PKCS12",
but still uses the JKS format for its cacerts default KeyStore.
When, for instance, an application uses JSSE to connect to some TLS/HTTPS server
(and does not have explicitly set some trust store) JSSE tries to read the
certificates from the default cacerts KeyStore by instantiating a
KeyStore with the default format ("PKCS12"). When IAIK is installed as
first provider the PKCS12 KeyStore of the IAIK provider is instantiated and tries
to parse the cacerts KeyStore. This, however, must fail since
cacerts is a JKS KeyStore which cannot be read by the IAIK PKCS12KeyStore
(that, of course, expects a KeyStore in PKCS12 format). The TLS/HTTPS connection
attempt will fail with an Exception saying that the trust store cannot be
accessed because of a KeyStore parsing problem.
There are several work arounds for solving this problem (and keeping IAIK as first provider):
java -Djavax.net.ssl.trustStoreType=jks -Djavax.net.ssl.keyStoreType=jks …
setUseJKSFallBack() to true:
PKCS12KeyStore.setUSEJKSFallBack(true);
PKCS12KeyStore.setUSEJKSFallBack(true);)
the IAIK PKCS12KeyStore will be advised to try the JKS format anytime it fails
to parse a PKCS#12 KeyStore. This may cause some overhead. For that reason -- and
because you may not notice that you read a JKS KeyStore while you are expecting to
read a PKCS#12 KeyStore) the JKS fallback mechanism is disabled by default and
has to be explicitly enabled by calling PKCS12KeyStore.setUSEJKSFallBack(true);.UniversalKeyStore.KeyStoreType, UniversalKeyStore.PKCS12JKSKeyStoreKS_TYPE_IAIK, KS_TYPE_PKCS12| Constructor and Description |
