RFR 8044755: Add a test for algorithm constraints check in jarsigner (original) (raw)

Oh, I was just updating the webrev to

http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~weijun/8044755/webrev.01/

As we've just discussed offline, the reason the 2nd jarsigner call fails is a double weakness, not only the signer's key is 512 bit, but also signer's cert is signed by a 512 key (of CA).

Therefore I update the test to use a weak signature alg -- MD2withRSA. This time I believe the weakness of CA's cert won't infect the its signature when signing signer.

Thanks Max

Looks fine to me.

FYI, I'd like to remove the temporary files (a.jar, ks, etc) after a testing. Xuelei On 6/4/2014 2:21 PM, Wang Weijun wrote: Please review a new test at
