IJ55548: THE PKCS12 KEYSTORE LOAD OPERATION RETURNS AN INCOMPLETE CERTIFICATE CHAIN.

APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • Error Message: N/A
    .
    Stack Trace: N/A
    .
    The certificate chain displayed is truncated at the first
     expired certificate. The certificate chain
    length does not
     indicate the full certificate chain length.
    

Local fix

  • Import the updated end-entity certificate along with its valid
     certificate chain, ensuring all certificates have
    current expiry
     dates.
    

Problem summary

  • During loading of a PKCS12 KeyStore the certificate chain
     construction for a private key entry was stopped at
    the first
     expired certificate in the chain.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The PKCS12 KeyStore load operation has been updated to return
    the
     full certificate chain for a private key,
    irrespective of the
     certificate's expiration status.
