⇱ PH56022: TLSV1.3 SUPPORT USING RACF RSA HARDWARE AND SOFTWARE KEYS WITH DIFFERENT SIGNING ALGORITHMS


PH56022: TLSV1.3 SUPPORT USING RACF RSA HARDWARE AND SOFTWARE KEYS WITH DIFFERENT SIGNING ALGORITHMS

APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • Error Message: When a user tries to use RACF RSA keys, it may
    get one of the following errors, if the signing algorithm is not
    RSASSA-PSS:
    javax.net.ssl.SSLException: No supported CertificateVerify
    signature algorithm for RSA key
    java.security.InvalidKeyException: No installed provider
    supports this key: com.ibm
    .crypto.hdwrCCA.provider.RSAPrivateHWKey
    java.security.spec.InvalidParameterSpecException: Inappropriate
    parameter specification
    javax.net.ssl.SSLHandshakeException: The Finished message cannot
    be verified.
    .
    Stack Trace: javax.net.ssl.SSLHandshakeException: The Finished
    message cannot be verified.

Local fix

  • Users need to use RACF RSA keys with RSASSA-PSS signing
    algorithms keys or EC keys to be used over TLSv1.3 which are
    supported.
    

Problem summary

  • The RACF RSA keys with RSASSA-PSS signing algorithm are
    supported for TLSv1.3. But users may encounter a TLS handshake
    error if they use a RACF keystone containing RSA keys without
    RSASSA-PSS signing algorithm. In this case, the users may see
    the following error message:
    No supported CertificateVerify signature algorithm for RSA key
    .
    This issue was introduced in Java 11.0.19 (PTF UI91990 /
    UI91991) and Java 8.0.8.5 (PTF UI92054 / UI92067), by changes
    for an earlier fix: APAR PH52876.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The support for RACF RSA hardware and software keys is added.
    So, the user can use different RSA key types with different
    signing algorithms.
    .
    This APAR will be fixed in the following Releases:
    .
    IBM Semeru Runtimes
     11 11.0.19.1
    IBM SDK, Java Technology Edition
     8 SR8 FP15 (8.0.8.15)
    .
    Contact your IBM Product's Service Team for these Service
    Refreshes and Fix Packs.
