Implementacion De Firmas Digitales en Java

WARNING

Jim Manico recently brought to my attention this wiki page, the same who asked me to check exactly. In doing so, I noticed several errors and areas of weakness. Lately, I have the intention to revisit this page (hopefully with the help of one of the original owners), but I do not have time to do a full review at this time. Therefore, I will summarize the problems observed on this page and leaving you the decision to use or not, with these warnings.

1. First, this page does not describe "digital signatures". Rather, it describes a concept known as "digital envelopes", which is a scheme used with objects such as S / MIME. Digital signatures not only encrypt the actual message text, only encrypts the hash of the message text.
2. UTF-8 should be used to convert between Java byte strings and arrays to ensure adequate portability across different operating systems.
3. The certificate chain must always be validated. In this example, the certificate is self-signed, so this is not relevant and will not be true in the normal case. Furthermore, it should be noted that the self-signed, but acceptable for demonstration purposes certificates is considered a dubious practice for production, as it opens the door to spoofing attacks.
4. NIST now recommends using key size 2048 bits for RSA or DSA keys.
5. There is a consistent use of weak algorithms. Here are some suggested replacements:
   1. Use "RSA/ECB/OAEPWithSHA1AndMGF1Padding" instead of "RSA/ECB/PKCS1Padding".
   2. Use SHA1 (or better SHA256, SHA1 but at least) instead of MD5 for message digest.
   3. Use "SHA1withRSA" for the signature algorithm instead of "MD5withRSA".
   4. When creating a symmetric encryption system to encrypt the message text, use "AES / CBC / PKCS5Padding" and choose an IV random for each text message instead of simply using "AES", ending with "AES / ECB / PKCS5Padding ". ECB mode is extremely weak for a regular plain text. (OK for random bit encryption, however, is well used with RSA.) However, the use CBC and PKCS5Padding could make it vulnerable to "Padding Oracle" attacks, so caution is advised. You can use Encryptor 2.0 ESAPI 's to avoid it. (Note also, this part is the concept of "on digital". If this page was really limited by "digital signatures" would not apply because it would be irrelevant.)

I hope to get soonest, before cleaning this wiki page. Meanwhile, email me your questions.

Overview

This article presents a brief overview of the concepts involved with digital signatures and provides code examples for the application of digital signatures in Java using the Java Cryptography Architecture (JCA).

What is a digital signature?

A digital signature is a concept that helps to get the non-repudiation of origin (ie, the integrity of Origin) data. By digitally signing the document, the person signing, says he is the author of the document or the signed message.

Need for Digital Signature

During the "E" revolution was a need for authentication of critical transactions especially in the financial world. If Alice agreed to transfer $ x to Bob, then there had to be a way for Bob to ensure that:

• It was Alice who performed the transaction and not someone else impersonating Alice (Authentication).
• The amount agreed by Alice is $ x (Integrity).
• Alice could not discuss his statement transaction $ x a Bob (Non-repudiation of origin).

These concerns were treated with a solution known as digital signatures. More background information on digital signatures can be found here

Digital signatures in Java using JCA

Java Cryptography Architecture is a framework for accessing and developing cryptographic functionality for the Java platform. JCA provider implements cryptographic functionality such as digital signatures and message digests. The default JCA provider is SUN JDK 1.4.2.

Security considerations when implementing digital signature

Two major safety considerations that must be taken into account when applying digital signatures are:

1. Sign the message and then encrypt the signed message.
2. Sign the hash of the message instead of the entire message.

Performance considerations when implementing digital signature

Because asymmetric encryption algorithms such as RSA, DSA are computationally slower than symmetric encryption algorithms such as AES, it is a good practice, encrypt the actual message that is transmitted using a symmetric key algorithm and then encrypt the key that is used in symmetric key algorithm using an asymmetric key algorithm. For example, if you want to convey the message "Hello World Digital Signatures", then this message is first encrypted with a symmetric key, for example, an AES 128-bit key as x7oFaHSPnWxEMiZE/0qYrg and then this key is encrypted with an algorithm as RSA asymmetric key.

Algorithm to implement digital signature using the RSA algorithm

The provider RSA Java implementation has a limitation in that encryption can be performed on the data length <= 117 bytes only. If the data is of a length> 117 bytes, it will launch a IllegalBlockSizeException: Data must have more than 117 bytes symmetry there has to be encrypted and then signed.

RSA PKCS # 1 algorithm can only encrypt data size k - 11, where k whose length is one byte and the RSA module 11 is the number of bytes used by the filling PCKS # 1 v1.5. Therefore, if we use an RSA key size of 1024 bits, we could encrypt only 128-11 => 117 bytes of data. There are two options available to encrypt data byte size larger.

1. We could use an RSA key length> 1024. For example, using 2048 bits, then we could encrypt 256-11 => 245 bytes of data. The disadvantage of this approach is that it would be capable of encoding data size> x bytes (in the above example x is 245).
2. Analyze the input data chunks of bytes in size <117 and apply encryption on each piece. The code example of this approach can be found here.

Both approaches could affect performance since the RSA key larger or approach of "divide and conquer" of input bytes are computationally expensive.

Algorithm

With the foregoing, the following algorithm can be used for the implementation of public key cryptography in Java.

1. Encrypt the message using a symmetric key
2. Concatenate the symmetric key + symmetric hash + hash key message.
3. Encrypt the concatenated string with the public key of the recipient.
4. Sign data to be transmitted (encrypted symmetric key + the + Hash hash key message).
5. Validate the signature.
6. Deciphering the message with the recipient's private key to obtain the symmetric key.
7. Validate the integrity of the key using the hash key.
8. It decipher the real message using the symmetric key that has been decrypted, analyzed and integrity checks.
9. Calculate MessageDigest of data.
10. Validate whether the message digest decrypted text matches the message digest of the original message.
