RE: Re: Supported signature algorithms in Tomcat 8.5
Hi
Attached my certs. The error message they were getting were "unsupported
signature algorithm ecdsa_sha1". Unfortunately don't have the logs and can't
paste the actual client cert. I only have a packet capture during the failure
and I was comparing tomcat logs from successful case and the packet capture
from failure case. I noticed that the only difference is when the tomcat is
requesting for client certificate it is sending list of acceptable/supported
certificate types and signature algorithms. I am trying to understand where
tomcat gets those values from? We don't enable/disable any signature algorithms
in our java.security or java.policy files or in Catalina.policy files. The
only place we specify any ciphers is in our connector (connector.txt). How does
tomcat determine what to send as an acceptable/supported certificate type or
signature algorithm?
Thanks

Your attachment has been stripped. Please copy/paste your certificate in
PEM-encoded-DER format (i.e. -BEGIN CERTIFICATE-) into the body of your
post.

That would be a very odd configuration indeed.

Do you have a specific error message and/or stack trace?

Certificate types are usually "RSA" or "EC" (or maybe "DSA") and sometimes
just, generically, X.509. Signature algorithms are typically things like
"sha256withRSAencryption", etc.
Having the certificate itself would be very helpful in trying to debug this
issue.

Supported signature algorithms in Tomcat 8.5
Hi
Tomcat version : 8.5.70
Attached my self -signed client cert(ecdsatestclient.crt_txt), self signed CA
(rsatestca_original.crt_txt)output from openssl (defaultciphersuite.txt) my
connector configuration(connector.txt)
Problem: We have a client that is connecting to tomcat with an ECC cert signed
by a RSA signer. Client authentication is enabled in tomcat. They are seeing
handshake failures in ClientKeyExchange/Certificate Verify stage. To emulate
their failure I generated self signed certs and tested with tomcat. I was able
to make a successful connection. I attached my self signed certs ,connector
configuration and openssl output from my successful test. I don't have the
actual logs or client cert but I do have a packet capture during failure. I see
in "CertificateRequest" message sent by server(tomcat) it is sending a list of
"certificate types, supported signature algorithms and certificate
authorities". I get that "certificate authorities" come from tomcat's
truststore. I was comparing the packet capture and tomcat log from successful
case and noticed that "certificate types and supported signature algorithms"
are different between successful and failure cases. Why is there difference
between the "certificate types" and "signature algorithms"? Where/how does
tomcat get the values for "certificate types" and "supported signature
algorithms" ?
We don't enable/disable/define any certificate types or signature algorithms in
Catalina.policy or in the java.security or java.policy files(java that tomcat
is pointing to). We have unlimited strength cryptography policy files.
I added client certificate issuer's CA into server's trust store and vice versa
before I ran the openssl command.
The command I used to test is
openssl s_client -connect X.X.X.X:XX -cert ecdsatestclient.crt -key
myselfsigned.key -CAfile rsatestca.crt -msg -state -showcerts -debug
