Re: [Pki-devel] [PATCH] 29 Fix for ticket 219 - BugZilla issue 816232

Please review the patch for ticket 219 - fix BZ 816232 - incorrect casting from BigInt to Int in installation wizard. This patch is for the DogTag 9 branch. The previous one was for DogTag 10 branch. Defect description: The serial number generated for certificates is wrong when the number is large. Problem is due to the conversion of BigInteger to integer while generating a new serial number, which truncates the most significant bits in the serial number and therefore a large number (eg. 10fff0001) becomes a smaller number (eg. fff0001). This conversion in turn leads to a collision if a certificate with the smaller number exists in the database. Steps to reproduce the defect: - Create a CA. - (1) - Edit the fields minSerialNumber and maxSerialNumber in the <CA-Installation Path>/conf.CS.cfg to large values like 100000000 and 110000000. - Restart the CA. - Configure the CA. - Create a new CA. - Configure this as a clone to (1)CA - After the Certificates are generated, view the serial number by clicking on "View Certificate in PrettyPrint". Results: Before the patch is applied: The serial number is truncated.(Wrong) After the patch is applied: The serial number is found as expected. --Abhishek Koneru On Mon, 2012-08-13 at 18:44 -0400, Abhishek Koneru wrote: > Please review the patch with fix for ticket 219 in Dog Tag 10 Beta. > > --Abhishek Koneru > _______________________________________________ > Pki-devel mailing list > Pki-devel(a)redhat.com > https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/pki-devel _______________________________________________ Pki-devel mailing list Pki-devel(a)redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/pki-devel
