Hi, Max,

Overall looks very good. Just one more thing:

Different key classes seems to differ in their handling of IOException in their constructor which produces the DER bytes.

DSAPrivateKey changed to use AssertionError, XDHPrivateKeyImpl and EdDSAPrivateKeyImpl throws ProviderException. It seems that all other PrivateKey classes use InvalidKeyException. Perhaps it'd be nice to use InvalidKeyException for consistency sake?

Thanks,
Valerie

I've inlined more methods that is only called once and inside the same method.

Hi Max,

I like this new structure better. Much easier to understand. Most of the 
changes are technical debt that's accumulated inside PKCS8Key class.

A few notable differences which I am not so sure about are

- the encodedKey is returned by getEncoded() directly w/o cloning, and
Too bad. I'll fix.

- the protected parseKeyBits() method being made private. I wonder if the 
parseKeyBits() method should be made abstract so it's more obvious that the 
subclasses needs to parse the key bytes into algorithm-specific components.
Or how about I just inline parseKeyBits in those child classes into their 
constructors? I don't think the child class will forget it. Otherwise, why 
write a child class?

Thanks,
Max

Can you please take a look (not a review) at an updated webrev at 
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~weijun/8244565/webrev.02/? It contains the code to inspect 
the extra fields. I haven't deal with the "..." here yet.

However, when I tried to consolidate the DER parsing into one place, I've made 
more and more changes everywhere. The major change now is a base constructor 
PKCS8Key(byte[]) and subclass constructors that call it and no more protected 
parseKeyBits(). Although I don't think there is any technical error here but at 
the end of the day I'm asking myself if this is too much code change for such a 
simple bug.

Do you like the overall structure? If yes, I'll continue this way. Otherwise, I 
can restrict the change only inside PKCS8Key.

Thanks,
Max

I suppose we can allow trailing data to conform to "..." then.

But the "[[2: publicKey [1] PublicKey OPTIONAL ]]," line mean that the 
publicKey should not be present for V1? This should be checked?

According to 
https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/what-does-string-three-elipses-mean-asn1:

    The string "..." in ASN.1 is called an extension marker. The extension 
marker,
    ellipsis, is an indication that extension additions are expected. It makes 
no
    statement as to how such additions should be handled. However they shall 
not be
    treated as an error during the decoding process.

So there might be more fields in the future. Do you still insist we need more 
validation?

True, the current handling of the extra bytes in parseKey() and decode() are 
kind of opposite, one does not allow any extra bytes but the other ignores all. 
The trailing bytes may look harmless but simply ignores it may open up 
something unexpected.

Given that this is key related class, I think it's important to do reasonable 
validation even though we currently do not use these trailing bytes. It'd also 
be good if the handling can be consistent regardless of the call path.

Hi Max,

I saw in the bug description that handling and parsing of the public key will 
be resolved in a separate enhancement which is fine with me.

In addition to relaxing the PKCS8 version check to accept 1, the current webrev 
does not check for the trailing bytes and its validity. Perhaps we should 
consider adding necessary checks to ensure spec conformance? Perhaps some 
utility method like: (This includes basic checks plus checks for multiple 
attributes and version 1 w/ public key. )

    private static void checkTrailingBytes(DerInputStream derIn, int version)
            throws IOException {
        boolean hasAttributes = false;
        boolean hasPublicKey = false;
        while (derIn.available () != 0) {
            // check for OPTIONAL attributes and/or publicKey
            DerValue tmp = derIn.getDerValue();
            if (tmp.isContextSpecific((byte)0) && !hasAttributes) {
                // OPTIONAL attributes not supported yet
                // discard for now and move on
                hasAttributes = true;
            } else if (version == V2 && tmp.isContextSpecific((byte)1) &&
                !hasPublicKey) {
                // OPTIONAL v2 public key not supported yet
                // discard for now and move on
                hasPublicKey = true;
            } else {
                throw new IOException ("illegal encoding in private key");
            }
        }
    }
I wonder if this is necessary. The extra bytes are quite harmless, and we 
didn't check it in decode().

Besides the encoding parsing check above, maybe V1, V2 can be made private 
static?
OK.

I noticed that the PKCS8Key class has a block of code under the comments "Try again using 
JDK1.1-style...", however the provider property "PrivateKey.PKCS#8.<alg>" seems long 
gone? Without these property, this block of code seems useless and probably should be cleaned up as well.
Yes.

As for the test, the existing comments for the EXPECTED bytes are off and plain misleading. Could you please 
fix them or at least remove them. For example, the comment of "integer 3" should be associated with 
"0x02, 0x01, 0x03," bytes instead of "0x01, 0x02, 0x02,". In the updated test, 
NEW_ENCODED_KEY_INTS is PKCS8 v1 key and NEW_ENCODED_KEY_INTS_2 is PKCS8 v2 key w/ public key. Since the 
version value is always at index 4, we can either clone the existing bytes or directly override the version 
value in NEW_ENCODED_KEY_INTS or NEW_ENCODED_KEY_INTS_2 to add additional negative tests, e.g. encoding w/ 
the version value 2 (anything besides the allowed 0 and 1), version value 0 w/ trailing public key. It'd be 
nice to test version 1 w/ trailing bytes w/ invalid tag value as well.
If you still want checkTrailingBytes, then yes.

Thanks,
Max

Thanks,

Valerie

Now we accepts a PKCS8 file with version being 0 or 1. The publicKey and 
attributes are still not parsed.

I also take this chance to make some format change.

There is no regression test and I'll add one. I can generate a PKCS8 key and 
then modify the version from 0 to 1 and try to read it. Or I can find a PKCS8 
generated by some other tool and embed it the test to read it. Please advise 
which is better.
