Overview

What is SSL ?

SSL - Secure Socket Layer is an Application layer cryptographic protocol developed by Netscape for securing communication over the Internet. The security services provided by SSL are

  1. Confidentiality through Encryption of data using Symmetric Key Encryption Algorithms
  2. Non - Repudiation of Origin / Origin Integrity through Digital Signatures using Asymmetric key Encryption Algorithms or Public Key Cryptographic Algorithms
  3. Data Integrity through Hashing using Message Digest or Hashing Algorithms

What is JSSE ?

JSSE is the acronym of Jave Secure Socket Extensions. As the name implies it is a set of Java API's which provides SSL / TLS functionalities. JSSE follows a Provider Architecture wherein the functionalities specified in the Service Provider Interface can be implemented by any Service Provider. JSSE comes bundled with a default service provider named SunJSSE. JSSE was an optional package on jdk ##x and ##x. Since jdk ##x, JSSE comes pre-configured with the standard jdk package

The JSSE Implementation of SSL

JSSE provides an implementation for creating SSLSocket (used by clients) and SSLServerSocket (used by server).

Algorithm for creating SSL Client socket

  1. Determine the SSL Server Name and port in which the SSL server is listening
  2. Register the JSSE provider
  3. Create an instance of SSLSocketFactory
  4. Create an instance of SSLSocket
  5. Create an OutputStream object to write to the SSL Server
  6. Create an InputStream object to receive messages back from the SSL Server

Algorithm for creating SSL Server socket

  1. Register the JSSE provider
  2. Set System property for keystore by specifying the keystore which contains the server certificate
  3. Set System property for the password of the keystore which contains the server certificate
  4. Create an instance of SSLServerSocketFactory
  5. Create an instance of SSLServerSocket by specifying the port to which the SSL Server socket needs to bind with
  6. Initialize an object of SSLSocket
  7. Create InputStream object to read data sent by clients
  8. Create an OutputStream object to write data back to clients.

SSL Handshake Protocol

The SSL handshake protocol happens between the client and the server and comprises of 4 rounds that enable peers to agree on keys, ciphers and MAC algorithms. The handshake is explained below with the parameters captured in the debug mode during the execution of SSLClient and SSLServer java files.


Round 1 : Create the SSL connection between the Client and the Server

Once the handshake is complete, secure communication can commence.

The Need for Keytool

The server needs to generate a certificate and a private key associated with its certificate. This certificate would be sent to the clients who wishes to communicate with the server. These functionalities of Key generation, Key management , certificate management are taken care by a tool provided by Sun known as keytool. Keytool uses keystores to store the public / private keys as well as certificates. keystores are datastores implemented as files. Private keys are protected with passwords.

Algorithms supported by Keytool

Keytool supports any algorithm implemented by the registered cryptographic service providers. Default key pair generation algorithm is DSA with a keysize of 1024 bits. The signature algorithm is derived from the algorithm of the private keys. DSA gets coupled with SHA1 by default and so "SHA1withDSA" would be used. RSA gets coupled with MD5 and so "MD5withRSA" would be used.

Some of the frequently used functions of keytool are:

Generating keys using keytools

Key pairs can be generated using keytool with the following command and options

$bash # keytool -genkey -alias testkey -keystore testkeystore.ks
Enter keystore password:  testpwd
What is your first and last name?
  [Unknown]:  Tom
What is the name of your organizational unit?
  [Unknown]:  security
What is the name of your organization?
  [Unknown]:  ABC Inc
What is the name of your City or Locality?
  [Unknown]:  Fort Meade
What is the name of your State or Province?
  [Unknown]:  MA
What is the two-letter country code for this unit?
  [Unknown]:  US
Is CN=Tom, OU=security, O=ABC Inc, L=Fort Meade, ST=MA, C=US correct?
  [no]:  y

Enter key password for <testkey>
        (RETURN if same as keystore password):
  • The option -genkey is used to generate the keys.
  • -alias specifies the name of the key. This can be verified by the command keytool -list -keystore testkeystore.ks
  • -keystore is the name of the keystore to where the key needs to be added. If no keystore name is specified, the generated keys will be added to the default keystore. The default keystore gets autogenerated when the first key is created and is located in the users home directory with an ".keystore" extension.

The following defaults would be applied during the genkey process: * keyalg - defaults to DSA * keysize - defaults to 1024 bits * validity - defaults to 90 days

Importing certificates into keystore from .cer files

A certificate represented usually by a .cer file is imported into the keystore so that it gets added to the list of trusted certificates.

$bash # keytool -import -keystore testkeystore.ks -file ssltest.cer
Enter keystore password:  testpwd
Owner: CN=Jane P, OU=Network Admins, O=NewCo, L=Denver, ST=CO, C=US
Issuer: CN=Jane P, OU=Network Admins, O=NewCo, L=Denver, ST=CO, C=US
Serial number: 45697b96
Valid from: Sun Nov 26 06:33:42 EST 2006 until: Wed Apr 12 07:33:42 EDT 2034
Certificate fingerprints:
         MD5:  BD:AA:A5:77:AC:92:17:0E:D3:6E:E2:8F:2B:12:A5:6C
         SHA1: 2F:BF:88:E1:2F:26:B9:C3:64:5E:C5:7F:F4:BF:43:7F:37:3D:BE:C5
Trust this certificate? [no]:  yes
Certificate was added to keystore

The certificate ssltest.cer is successfully imported into the keystore. The serial number generated is unique to this certificate and is useful during certificate revocations. When a certificate is revoked, the serial number gets added to the CRL (Certificate revocation list). Warning: Before importing a certificate, validate if the certificate really belongs to the entity it claims to represent.

Use the keytool -printcert -file ssltest.cer to view the contents of the certificate

$bash # keytool -printcert -file ssltest.cer
Owner: CN=Jane P, OU=Network Admins, O=NewCo, L=Denver, ST=CO, C=US
Issuer: CN=Jane P, OU=Network Admins, O=NewCo, L=Denver, ST=CO, C=US
Serial number: 45697b96
Valid from: Sun Nov 26 06:33:42 EST 2006 until: Wed Apr 12 07:33:42 EDT 2034
Certificate fingerprints:
         MD5:  BD:AA:A5:77:AC:92:17:0E:D3:6E:E2:8F:2B:12:A5:6C
         SHA1: 2F:BF:88:E1:2F:26:B9:C3:64:5E:C5:7F:F4:BF:43:7F:37:3D:BE:C5

# Verify from the Issuer of the certificate if the Certificate fingerprint matches.

Exporting certificates from keystore to files

To export a certificate from a keystore to a file, the following command could be used

$bash # keytool -export -alias testkey -keystore testkeystore.ks -file testkey.cer
Enter keystore password:  testpwd
Certificate stored in file <testkey.cer>
Now you can verify the contents of the exported certificate using the command.
$bash # keytool -printcert -file testkey.cer
Owner: CN=Tom, OU=security, O=ABC Inc, L=Fort Meade, ST=MA, C=US
