+4.3.1 Release Notes
+===================
+
+.. _release_date_2009-12-02:
+
+`Release Date: 2009-12-02 <#release_date_2009-12-02>`__
+-------------------------------------------------------
+
+.. container::
+
+`Introduction <#introduction>`__
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+.. container::
+
+ Network Security Services for Java (JSS) 4.3.1 is a minor release with the following new
+ features:
+
+ - Support for SSL3 & TLS Renegotiation Vulnerability
+ - Support to explicitly set the key usage for the generated private key
+
+ JSS 4.3.1 is `tri-licensed <https://www.mozilla.org/MPL>`__ under MPL 1.1/GPL 2.0/LGPL 2.1.
+
+.. _new_in_jss_4.3.1:
+
+`New in JSS 4.3.1 <#new_in_jss_4.3.1>`__
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+.. container::
+
+ A list of bug fixes and enhancement requests were implemented in this release can be obtained by
+ running this `bugzilla
+ query <http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/buglist.cgi?product=JSS&target_milestone=4.3.1&target_milestone=4.3.1&bug_status=RESOLVED&resolution=FIXED>`__
+
+ **JSS 4.3.1 requires :ref:`mozilla_projects_nss_3_12_5_release_notes` or higher.**
+
+ .. rubric:: SSL3 & TLS Renegotiation Vulnerability
+ :name: ssl3_tls_renegotiation_vulnerability
+
+ See `CVE-2009-3555 <http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2009-3555>`__ and `US-CERT
+ VU#120541 <http://www.kb.cert.org/vuls/id/120541>`__ for more information about this security
+ vulnerability.
+
+ All SSL/TLS renegotiation is disabled by default in NSS 3.12.5 and therefore will be disabled by
+ default with JSS 4.3.1. This will cause programs that attempt to perform renegotiation to
+ experience failures where they formerly experienced successes, and is necessary for them to not
+ be vulnerable, until such time as a new safe renegotiation scheme is standardized by the IETF.
+
+ If an application depends on renegotiation feature, it can be enabled by setting the environment
+ variable NSS_SSL_ENABLE_RENEGOTIATION to 1. By setting this environmental variable, the fix
+ provided by these patches will have no effect and the application may become vulnerable to the
+ issue.
+
+ This default setting can also be changed within the application by using the following JSS
+ methods:
+
+ - SSLServerSocket.enableRenegotiation(int mode)
+ - SSLSocket.enableRenegotiation(int mode)
+ - SSLSocket.enableRenegotiationDefault(int mode)
+
+ The mode of renegotiation that the peer must use can be set to the following:
+
+ - SSLSocket.SSL_RENEGOTIATE_NEVER - Never renegotiate at all. (Default)
+ - SSLSocket.SSL_RENEGOTIATE_UNRESTRICTED - Renegotiate without
+ restriction, whether or not the peer's client hello bears the
+ renegotiation info extension (like we always did in the past).
+ - SSLSocket.SSL_RENEGOTIATE_REQUIRES_XTN - NOT YET IMPLEMENTED
+
+ .. rubric:: Explicitly set the key usage for the generated private key
+ :name: explicitly_set_the_key_usage_for_the_generated_private_key
+
+ | In PKCS #11, each keypair can be marked with the operations it will
+ | be used to perform. Some tokens require that a key be marked for
+ | an operation before the key can be used to perform that operation;
+ | other tokens don't care. NSS/JSS provides a way to specify a set of
+ | flags and a corresponding mask for these flags.

+
+ Before building JSS, you need to set up your system as follows:
+
+ #. Build NSPR/NSS by following the
+ :ref:`mozilla_projects_nss_reference_building_and_installing_nss_build_instructions`,
+ #. To check that NSS built correctly, run ``all.sh`` (in ``mozilla/security/nss/tests``) and
+ examine the results (in
+ ``mozilla/test_results/security/``\ *computername*.#\ ``/results.html``.
+ #. Install a Java compiler and runtime. JSS supports Java version 1.5 or later. We suggest you
+ use the latest.
+ #. You must have Perl version 5.005 or later.
+
+ Now you are ready to build JSS. Follow these steps:
+
+ #. Switch to the appropriate directory and check out JSS from the root of your source tree.
+
+ .. code::
+
+ cvs co -r JSS_4_3_1_RTM mozilla/security/jss
+
+ or
+
+ .. code::
+
+ cvs co -r JSS_4_3_RTM mozilla/security/jss
+
+ #. Setup environment variables needed for compiling Java source. The ``JAVA_HOME`` variable
+ indicates the directory containing your Java SDK installation. Note, on Windows platforms it
+ is best to have JAVA_HOME set to a directory path that doest not have spaces.
+
+ **Unix**
+
+ .. code::
+
+ setenv JAVA_HOME /usr/local/jdk1.5.0 (or wherever your JDK is installed)
+
+ **Windows**
+
+ .. code::
+
+ set JAVA_HOME=c:\programs\jdk1.5.0 (or wherever your JDK is installed)
+
+ **Windows (Cygnus)**
+
+ .. code::
+
+ JAVA_HOME=/cygdrive/c/programs/jdk1.5.0 (or wherever your JDK is installed)
+ export JAVA_HOME
+
+ | **Windows build Configurations WINNT vs WIN95**
+
+ .. code::
+
+ As of NSS 3.15.4, NSPR/NSS/JSS build generates a "WIN95" configuration by default on Windows.
+ We recommend most applications use the "WIN95" configuration. If you want JSS to be used
+ with your applet and the Firefox browser than you must build WIN95. (See JSS FAQ)
+ The "WIN95" configuration supports all versions of Windows. The "WIN95" name is historical;
+ it should have been named "WIN32".
+ To generate a "WINNT" configuration, set OS_TARGET=WINNT and build NSPR/NSS/JSS WIN95.
+
+ | Mac OS X
+ | It has been recently reported that special build instructions are necessary to succeed
+ building JSS on OSX. Please
+ see `HOWTO_successfully_compile_JSS_and_NSS_for_32_and_64_bits_on_OSX_10.6_(10.6.7) </HOWTO_successfully_compile_JSS_and_NSS_for_32_and_64_bits_on_OSX_10.6_(10.6.7)>`__
+ for contributed instructions.
+ |
+
+ #. Build JSS.
+
+ .. code::
+
+ cd mozilla/security/jss
+ gmake
+
+ #. Sign the JSS jar.
+
+ .. code::
+
+ If you're intention is to modify and build the JSS source you
+ need to Apply for your own JCE code-signing certificate
+
+ If you made no changes and your goal is to build JSS you can use the
+ signed binary release of the jss4.jar from ftp.mozilla.org.
+ with your built jss4 JNI shared library.
+
+ Next, you should read the instructions on `using JSS <Using_JSS>`__. \ No newline at end of file

+ - http://www.dogtagpki.org/wiki/JSS
+
+ **NOTE: As much of the JSS documentation is sorely out-of-date, updated information will be a
+ work in progress, and many portions of any legacy documentation will be re-written over the
+ course of time. Stay tuned!**
+
+ Legacy JSS information can still be found at:

+
+ Network Security Services for Java (JSS) is a Java interface to
+ `NSS <https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/NSS>`__. JSS supports most of the security
+ standards and encryption technologies supported by :ref:`mozilla_projects_nss_reference`. JSS
+ also provides a pure Java interface for ASN.1 types and BER/DER encoding.
+
+ JSS offers a implementation of Java SSL sockets that uses NSS's SSL/TLS implementation rather
+ than Sun's JSSE implementation. You might want to use JSS's own `SSL
+ classes <ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/security/jss/releases>`__ if you want to use some
+ of the capabilities found in NSS's SSL/TLS library but not found in JSSE.
+
+ NSS is the cryptographic module where all cryptographic operations are performed. JSS essentially
+ provides a Java JNI bridge to NSS C shared libraries. When NSS is put in FIPS mode, JSS ensures
+ FIPS compliance by ensuring that all cryptographic operations are performed by the NSS
+ cryptographic module.
+
+ JSS offers a JCE provider, `"Mozilla-JSS" JCA Provider notes <JSS/JSS_Provider_Notes>`__.
+
+ JSS, jss4.jar, is still built with JDK 1.4.2. While JDK 1.4.2 is EOL'd and all new product
+ development should be using the latest
+ `JavaSE <http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp>`__, legacy business products that must
+ use JDK 1.4 or 1.5 can continue to add NSS/JSS security fixes/enhancements.
+
+ JSS is used by Red Hat and Sun products that do crypto in Java. JSS is available under the
+ Mozilla Public License, the GNU General Public License, and the GNU Lesser General Public
+ License. JSS requires `NSPR <https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/NSPR>`__ and
+ `NSS <https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/NSS>`__.
+
+ Java provides a JCE provider called SunPKCS11 (see `Java PKCS#11 Reference
+ Guide <http://download.java.net/jdk7/docs/technotes/guides/security/p11guide.html>`__.) SunPKCS11
+ can be configured to use the NSS module as the crytographic provider. If you are planning to just
+ use JSS JCE provider as a bridge to NSS's FIPS validated PKCS#11 module, then the SunPKCS11 JCE
+ provider may do all that you need. Note that Java 1.5 claimed no FIPS compliance, and `Java
+ 1.6 <http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/technotes/guides/security/enhancements.html>`__ or higher
+ needs to be used. A current limitation to the configured SunPKCS11-NSS bridge configuration is if
+ you add a PKCS#11 module to the NSS database such as for a smartcard, you won't be able to access
+ that smartcard through the SunPKCS11-NSS bridge. If you use JSS, you can easily get lists of
+ modules and tokens that are configured in the NSS DB and freely access all of it.

+ - `JSS 3.2 has JCA support. When will JSS have JSSE support? <#jssjsse>`__
+
+ **What versions of JDK and JRE do you suggest?**
+
+ - JSS 3.x works with JDK versions 1.2 or higher, except version 1.3.0. Most attention for future
+ development and bug fixing will go to JDK 1.4 and later, so use that if you can. If you are
+ using JDK 1.3.x, you will need to use at least version 1.3.1--see `bug
+ 113808 <http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=113808>`__. JSS only supports the native
+ threading model (no green threads). For JSS 3.2 and higher, if you use JDK 1.4 or higher you
+ will not need to install the JCE, but if you using an earlier version of the JDK then you will
+ also have to install JCE 1.2.1. See also the document `Using JSS <Using_JSS>`__.
+
+ **Does JSS have 64 bit support?**
+
+ - Yes, JSS 3.2 and higher supports 64 bit. You will need JDK 1.4 or higher and all the 64 bit
+ versions of NSPR, and NSS. As well you must use the java flag -d64 to specify the 64-bit data
+ model.
+
+ **Is JSS FIPS Compliant?**
+
+ - NSS is a FIPS-certified software library. JSS is considered a FIPS-compliant software library
+ since it only uses NSS for any and all crypto routines.
+
+ **Is there any sample code and documentation?**
+
+ - The `Using JSS <Using_JSS>`__ document describes how to set up your environment to run JSS.
+ The only other documentation is the
+ `Javadoc <ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/security/jss/releases/JSS_4_3_RTM/doc/JSS_4_3_RTM-doc.zip>`__.

+
+ **If I don't call setCipherPolicy, is the DOMESTIC policy used by default?**
+
+ - Yes, domestic is the default because we call NSS_SetDomesticPolicy() during
+ CryptoManager.initialize(). setCipherPolicy does not need to be called by a JSS app unless
+ that app wants to limit itself to export-allowed cipher suites.
+
+ **My SSL connection is hanging on Windows?**
+
+ - NSPR makes use of NT vs. Windows distinction and provides different NT and Windows builds.
+ Many Netscape products, including NSS, have NT and Windows builds that are essentially the
+ same except one difference: one is linked with the NT version of NSPR and the other is linked
+ with the Windows version of NSPR. The NT fiber problem affects applications that call blocking
+ system calls from the primordial thread. Either use the WIN 95 version of NSPR/NSS/JSS
+ components (essentially all non-fiber builds) or set the environment variable
+ NSPR_NATIVE_THREADS_ONLY=1. You can find more information in bugzilla bug
+ `102251 <http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=102251>`__ SSL session cache locking
+ issue with NT fibers
+
+ **How can I tell which SSL/TLS ciphers JSS supports?**
+
+ - Check
+ http://lxr.mozilla.org/mozilla/source/security/jss/org/mozilla/jss/ssl/SSLSocket.java#730
+
+ **How can I debug my SSL connection?**
+
+ - By using the NSS tool :ref:`mozilla_projects_nss_tools_ssltap`
+
+ **Can you explain JSS SSL certificate approval callbacks?**
+
+ - NSS has three callbacks related to certificates. JSS has two. But JSS combines two of the NSS
+ callbacks into one.
+
+ - NSS's three SSL cert callbacks are:
+
+ #. SSL_AuthCertificateHook sets a callback to authenticate the peer's certificate. It is
+ called instead of NSS's routine for authenticating certificates.
+ #. SSL_BadCertHook sets a callback that is called when NSS's routine fails to authenticate the
+ certificate.
+ #. SSL_GetClientAuthDataHook sets a callback to return the local certificate for SSL client
+ auth.
+
+ JSS's two callbacks are:
+
+ #. SSLCertificateApprovalCallback is a combination of SSL_AuthCertificateHook and
+ SSL_BadCertHook. It runs NSS's cert authentication check, then calls the callback
+ regardless of whether the cert passed or failed. The callback is told whether the cert
+ passed, and then can do anything extra that it wants to do before making a final decision.
+ #. SSLClientCertificateSelectionCallback is analogous to SSL_GetClientAuthDataHook.
+
+ |
+ | **Can I have multiple JSS instances reading separate db's?**
+
+ - No, you can only have one initialized instance of JSS for each database.
+
+ **Once JSS initialized, I can't get anymore instances with
+ CertificateFactory.getInstance("X.509")?**
+
+ - In version previous to JSS 3.1, JSS removes the default SUN provider on startup. Upgrade to
+ the latest JSS, or, in the ``CryptoManager.InitializationValues`` object you pass to
+ ``CryptoManager.initialize()``, set ``removeSunProivider=true``.
+
+ **Is it possible to sign data in Java with JSS? What I am trying to do is write a Java applet
+ that will access the Netscape certificate store, retrieve a X509 certificate and then sign some
+ data.**
+
+ - The best way to do this is with the PKCS #7 signedData type. Check out the
+ `javadoc <ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/security/jss/releases/JSS_4_3_RTM/doc/JSS_4_3_RTM-doc.zip>`__.
+
+ **How do I convert org.mozilla.jss.crypto.X509Certificate to
+ org.mozilla.jss.pkix.cert.Certificate?**
+
+ - .. code::
+
+ import java.io.ByteArrayInputStream;
+
+ [...]
+
+ Certificate cert = (Certificate) ASN1Util.decode(
+ Certificate.getTemplate(),x509Cert.getEncoded() );
+
+ **How do I convert org.mozilla.jss.pkix.cert to org.mozilla.jss.crypto.X509Certificate?**
+
+ - `Cryptomanager.importCertPackage() <ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/security/jss/releases/JSS_4_3_RTM/doc/JSS_4_3_RTM-doc.zip>`__
+
+ **Is it possible to use JSS to acces cipher functionality from pkcs11 modules?**
+
+ - Yes. Before JSS 3.2 you would use CryptoManager to obtain the CryptoToken you want to use,
+ then call CryptoToken.getCipherContext() to get an encryption engine. But as of JSS 3.2 you
+ would use the `JSS JCA provider <JSS_Provider_Notes>`__.
+
+ **Can you explain token names and keys with regards to JSS?**
+
+ - The token name is different depending on which application you are running. In JSS, the token
+ is called "Internal Key Storage Token". You can look it up by name using
+ CryptoManager.getTokenByName(), but a better way is to call
+ CryptoManager.getInternalKeyStorageToken(), which works no matter what the token is named. In
+ general, a key is a handle to an underlying object on a PKCS #11 token, not merely a Java
+ object residing in memory. Symmetric Key usage: basically encrypt/decrypt is for data and
+ wrap/unwrap is for keys.
+
+ J\ **SS 3.2 has JCA support. When will JSS have JSSE support?**
+
+ - Not in the near future due to pluggability is disabled in the JSSE version included in J2SE
+ 1.4.x for export control reasons. \ No newline at end of file

+
+`Overview <#overview>`__
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+.. container::
+
+ This document describes the JCA Provider shipped with JSS. The provider's name is "Mozilla-JSS".
+ It implements cryptographic operations in native code using the `NSS <../nss>`__ libraries.
+
+`Contents <#contents>`__
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+.. container::
+
+ - `Signed JAR file <#signed-jar>`__
+ - `Installing the Provider <#installing-provider>`__
+ - `Specifying the CryptoToken <#specifying-token>`__
+ - `Supported Classes <#supported-classes>`__
+ - `What's Not Supported <#not-supported>`__
+
+ --------------
+
+.. _signed_jar_file:
+
+`Signed JAR file <#signed_jar_file>`__
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+.. container::
+
+ - JSS 3.2 implements several JCE (Java Cryptography Extension) algorithms. These algorithms have
+ at various times been export-controlled by the US government. Sun therefore requires that JAR
+ files implementing JCE algorithms be digitally signed by an approved organization. Netscape
+ has this approval and signs the official builds of ``jss32.jar``. At runtime, the JRE
+ automatically verifies this signature whenever a JSS class is loaded that implements a JCE
+ algorithm. The verification is transparent to the application (unless it fails and throws an
+ exception). If you are curious, you can verify the signature on the JAR file using the
+ ``jarsigner`` tool, which is distributed with the JDK.
+
+ If you build JSS yourself from source instead of using binaries downloaded from mozilla.org,
+ your JAR file will not have a valid signature. This means you will not be able to use the JSS
+ provider for JCE algorithms. You have two choices.
+
+ #. Use the binary release of JSS from mozilla.org.
+ #. Apply for your own JCE code-signing certificate following the procedure at `How to
+ Implement a Provider for the Java\ TM Cryptography
+ Extension <http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/technotes/guides/security/crypto/HowToImplAProvider.html#Step61>`__.
+ Then you can sign your own JSS JAR file.
+
+.. _installing_the_provider:
+
+`Installing the Provider <#installing_the_provider>`__
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+.. container::
+
+ - In order to use any part of JSS, including the JCA provider, you must first call
+ ``CryptoManager.initialize()``. By default, the JCA provider will be installed in the list of

+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+.. container::
+
+ - All cryptographic operations in JSS and NSS occur on a particular PKCS #11 token, implemented
+ in software or hardware. There is no clean way to specify this token through the JCA API. By
+ default, the JSS provider carries out all operations except MessageDigest on the Internal Key
+ Storage Token, a software token included in JSS/NSS. MessageDigest operations take place by
+ default on the Internal Crypto Token, another internal software token in JSS/NSS. There is no
+ good design reason for this difference, but it is necessitated by a quirk in the NSS
+ implementation.
+
+ In order to use a different token, use ``CryptoManager.setThreadToken()``. This sets the token
+ to be used by the JSS JCA provider in the current thread. When you call ``getInstance()`` on a
+ JCA class, the JSS provider checks the current per-thread default token (by calling
+ ``CryptoManager.getThreadToken()``) and instructs the new object to use that token for
+ cryptographic operations. The per-thread default token setting is only consulted inside
+ ``getInstance()``. Once a JCA object has been created it will continue to use the same token,
+ even if the application later changes the per-thread default token.
+
+ Whenever a new thread is created, its token is initialized to the default, the Internal Key
+ Storage Token. Thus, the thread token is not inherited from the parent thread.
+
+ The following example shows how you can specify which token is used for various JCA
+ operations:
+
+ .. code::
+
+ // Lookup PKCS #11 tokens
+ CryptoManager manager = CryptoManager.getInstance();
+ CryptoToken tokenA = manager.getTokenByName("TokenA");
+ CryptoToken tokenB = manager.getTokenByName("TokenB");
+
+ // Create an RSA KeyPairGenerator using TokenA
+ manager.setThreadToken(tokenA);
+ KeyPairGenerator rsaKpg = KeyPairGenerator.getInstance("RSA", "Mozilla-JSS");
+
+ // Create a DSA KeyPairGenerator using TokenB
+ manager.setThreadToken(tokenB);
+ KeyPairGenerator dsaKpg = KeyPairGenerator.getInstance("DSA", "Mozilla-JSS");
+
+ // Generate an RSA KeyPair. This will happen on TokenA because TokenA
+ // was the per-thread default token when rsaKpg was created.
+ rsaKpg.initialize(1024);
+ KeyPair rsaPair = rsaKpg.generateKeyPair();
+
+ // Generate a DSA KeyPair. This will happen on TokenB because TokenB

+ - For increased security, some SecretKeys may not be extractable from their PKCS #11 token.
+ In this case, the key should be wrapped (encrypted with another key), and then the
+ encrypted key might be extractable from the token. This policy varies across PKCS #11
+ tokens.
+ - ``translateKey`` tries two approaches to copying keys. First, it tries to copy the key
+ material directly using NSS calls to PKCS #11. If that fails, it calls ``getEncoded()`` on
+ the source key, and then tries to create a new key on the target token from the encoded
+ bits. Both of these operations will fail if the source key is not extractable.
+ - The class ``java.security.spec.PBEKeySpec`` in JDK versions earlier than 1.4 does not
+ contain the salt and iteration fields, which are necessary for PBE key generation. These
+ fields were added in JDK 1.4. If you are using a JDK (or JRE) version earlier than 1.4, you
+ cannot use class ``java.security.spec.PBEKeySpec``. Instead, you can use
+ ``org.mozilla.jss.crypto.PBEKeyGenParams``. If you are using JDK (or JRE) 1.4 or later, you
+ can use ``java.security.spec.PBEKeySpec`` or ``org.mozilla.jss.crypto.PBEKeyGenParams``.

+
+ This document describes the JCA Provider shipped with JSS. The provider's name is "Mozilla-JSS".
+ It implements cryptographic operations in native code using the
+ `NSS <https://www.mozilla.org/projects/security/pki/nss>`__ libraries.

+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+.. container::
+
+ JSS implements several JCE (Java Cryptography Extension) algorithms. These algorithms have at
+ various times been export-controlled by the US government. JRE therefore requires that JAR files
+ implementing JCE algorithms be digitally signed by an approved organization. The maintainers of
+ JSS, Sun, Red Hat, and Mozilla, have this approval and signs the official builds of ``jss4.jar``.
+ At runtime, the JRE automatically verifies this signature whenever a JSS class is loaded that
+ implements a JCE algorithm. The verification is transparent to the application (unless it fails
+ and throws an exception). If you are curious, you can verify the signature on the JAR file using
+ the ``jarsigner`` tool, which is distributed with the JDK.
+
+ If you build JSS yourself from source instead of using binaries downloaded from mozilla.org, your
+ JAR file will not have a valid signature. This means you will not be able to use the JSS provider
+ for JCE algorithms. You have two choices.
+
+ #. Use the binary release of JSS from mozilla.org.
+ #. Apply for your own JCE code-signing certificate following the procedure at `How to Implement a
+ Provider for the Java\ TM Cryptography
+ Extension <http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/technotes/guides/security/crypto/HowToImplAProvider.html#Step61>`__.
+ Then you can sign your own JSS JAR file.

+ - For increased security, some SecretKeys may not be extractable from their PKCS #11 token. In
+ this case, the key should be wrapped (encrypted with another key), and then the encrypted key
+ might be extractable from the token. This policy varies across PKCS #11 tokens.
+ - ``translateKey`` tries two approaches to copying keys. First, it tries to copy the key
+ material directly using NSS calls to PKCS #11. If that fails, it calls ``getEncoded()`` on the
+ source key, and then tries to create a new key on the target token from the encoded bits. Both
+ of these operations will fail if the source key is not extractable.
+ - The class ``java.security.spec.PBEKeySpec`` in JDK versions earlier than 1.4 does not contain
+ the salt and iteration fields, which are necessary for PBE key generation. These fields were
+ added in JDK 1.4. If you are using a JDK (or JRE) version earlier than 1.4, you cannot use
+ class ``java.security.spec.PBEKeySpec``. Instead, you can use
+ ``org.mozilla.jss.crypto.PBEKeyGenParams``. If you are using JDK (or JRE) 1.4 or later, you
+ can use ``java.security.spec.PBEKeySpec`` or ``org.mozilla.jss.crypto.PBEKeyGenParams``.

+ #. You need the JSS classes and the NSPR, NSS, and JSS shared libraries.
+
+ #. **NSPR and NSS Shared Libraries**
+
+ JSS uses the NSPR and NSS libraries for I/O and crypto. JSS version 3.0 linked statically with
+ NSS, so it only required NSPR. JSS versions 3.1 and later link dynamically with NSS, so they
+ also require the NSS shared libraries.
+
+ The exact library names vary according to the convention for each platform. For example, the
+ NSPR library is called ``nspr4.dll`` or ``libnspr4.dll`` on Windows and ``libnspr4.so`` on
+ Solaris. The following table gives the core names of the libraries, omitting the
+ platform-specific prefix and suffix.

+
+ If you built JSS from source, you have these libraries in the ``mozilla/dist/<platform>/lib``
+ directory of your build tree. If you are downloading binaries, get them from the binary
+ release locations in the above table. You need to select the right version of the components,
+ based on the version of JSS you are using. Generally, it is safe to use a later version of a
+ component than what JSS was tested with. For example, although JSS 4.2 was tested with NSS
+ 3.11.
+
+ ================== ========= ==============
+ Component Versions
+ JSS Version Component Tested Version
+ JSS 4.2 NSPR 4.6.4
+ \ NSS 3.11.4
+ JSS 3.4 NSPR 4.2.2
+ \ NSS 3.7.3
+ JSS 3.3 NSPR 4.2.2
+ \ NSS 3.6.1 or 3.7
+ JSS 3.2 NSPR 4.2 or 4.1.2
+ \ NSS 3.4.2
+ JSS 3.1.1 NSPR 4.1.2
+ \ NSS 3.3.1

+ ================== ========= ==============
+
+ #. **JSS Shared Library**
+
+ The JSS shared library is ``jss4.dll`` (Windows) or ``libjss4.so`` (Unix). If you built JSS
+ from source, it is in ``mozilla/dist/<platform>/lib``. If you are downloading binaries, get it
+ from http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/security/jss/releases/.
+
+ #. **JSS classes**
+
+ If you built JSS from source, the compiled JSS classes are in ``mozilla/dist/classes[_dbg]``.
+ You can put this directory in your classpath to run applications locally; or, you can package
+ the class files into a JAR file for easier distribution:
+
+ .. code::
+
+ cd mozilla/dist/classes[_dbg]
+ zip -r ../jss42.jar .
+
+ If you are downloading binaries, get jss42.jar
+ from http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/security/jss/releases/.
+
+.. _setup_your_runtime_environment:
+
+`Setup your runtime environment <#setup_your_runtime_environment>`__
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+.. container::
+
+ You need to set some environment variables before building and running Java applications with
+ JSS.
+
+ ``CLASSPATH``
+ Include the path containing the JSS classes you built, or the path to ``jss42.jar``. (The path
+ to ``jss34.jar`` ends with the string "/jss42.jar". It is not just the directory that contains
+ ``jss42.jar``.)
+ ``LD_LIBRARY_PATH`` (Unix) / ``PATH`` (Windows)
+ Include the path to the NSPR, NSS, and JSS shared libraries.

+
+ Before calling any JSS methods, you must initialize JSS by calling one of the
+ ``CryptoManager.initialize`` methods. See the `javadoc <javadoc>`__ for more details. \ No newline at end of file
