Fixed In Version: jss-4.4.0-13.el7_5 Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
Previously, due to a missing parameter check, encoding and decoding of an AlgorithmIdentifier object in the Java Security Services (JSS) was inconsistent. As a consequence, if JSS decoded an AlgorithmIdentifier object and encoded it again, JSS added in certain situations incorrectly a NULL parameter. This update detects if a parameter exists and no longer adds the NULL parameter. As a result, encoding and decoding AlgorithmIdentifier objects in JSS is consistent.

test procedure:

The same test procedure provided from the other bug should work for this one:

Comment 6 Amol K 2018-07-31 09:20:35 UTC
I tested this Bugzilla on 10.5.1-14.el7_5 version.

I followed the steps which CFu mention in the comment #3

After the dumpasn1 output, I'm not able to see NULL in 'OBJECT IDENTIFIER ecdsaWithSHA256 (1 2 840 10045 4 3 2)' block.

```
    <06 08 2A 86 48 CE 3D 04 03 02>
 18   8: . . . OBJECT IDENTIFIER ecdsaWithSHA256 (1 2 840 10045 4 3 2)
       : . . . . (ANSI X9.62 ECDSA algorithm with SHA256)
       : . . . }

```
