Hi Jamil,

We made an effort to support SHA2 where we can but might have missed a few places. I'll look into this and hopefully be able to get back to you in a few days.

thanks,
Christina

Hello Dogtag Gurus,

I have been trying to issue CMC revocation messages signed with SHA-256, but the server fails to validate the message in the CMCAuth java policy module. If I leave all fields the same but change the signature algorithm to SHA-1 then everything seems to work fine.

I suspect this is another side-effect of the root-cause for bug 824624. It seems like in certain cases with JSS 4.2.6 when PKCS#7 messages are created using any of the SHA-2 variants, the OIDs get messed up. This happened with SCEP responses from the CA (the bug referenced above) and I had it happen with the CMC revoke modifications I made. The latter issue was fixed by pulling down JSS 4.3 and loading that jar in the classpath for the modified CMCRevoke tool. However, on the server side I ended up seeing verification failures.

I'm running pki-common-9.0.20, jss 4.2.6, and NSS 3.13.4. At one point I had heard that Dogtag 9.0.X wasn't 100% safe to run with JSS 4.3 or later. Is that still the case with the latest 9.0 packages?

Has anyone had any success generating these CMC messages using SHA-2 hash algs and getting Dogtag to accept them?

Thanks,

Jamil
