Description Aaron Ogburn 2013-05-13 17:40:17 EDT 
Description of problem:

When performing Diffie-Hellman key agreement for SSL/TLS, the TLS
specification (RFC 5246) says that "Leading bytes of Z that contain all zero
bits are stripped before it is used as the pre_master_secret."

However, com.sun.crypto.provider.DHKeyAgreement.java does not strip leading
zero bytes. This causes approximately 1 out 256 SSL/TLS handshakes with
DH/DHE cipher suites to fail (when the leading byte happens, by chance, to
be zero).


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

java 1.7.0.19. openjdk package version 2.3.9.1.el6_4


How reproducible:

Very


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start the provided TestServer class:

java -Djavax.net.debug=all -Djavax.net.ssl.keyStore=./test_keystore.jks
-Djavax.net.ssl.keyStorePassword=password TestServer

2.  Test repeated connections through openssl.  Can use attached script:

./openssl_client.sh


You will occassionally see openssl gets a handshake failure.  The ssl logging logs a "SSLHandshakeException: Invalid Padding lengh"

  
Actual results: 

Roughly one out of 256 connections fail.


Expected results:

Every connection succeeds

It seems this commit from March 2012 inadvertently broke this:

In 2.3.10: http://blog.fuseyism.com/index.php/2013/06/28/security-icedtea-2-3-10-for-openjdk-7-released/

Need info from jvanek when this is packaged.

6.4 have already recieved 2.3.10. So the issue should be fixed.
