How to make a Bouncy Castle ECPublicKey

问题

I know the curve name (secp256k1) and the X and Y coordinates of the EC public key.

How do I make a org.bouncycastle.jce.interfaces.ECPublicKey out of them?

I've read https://stackoverflow.com/a/29355749/5453873 but the code there uses java.security... instead of org.bouncycastle... and ECPublicKey is an interface in org.bouncycastle... not an instantiable class.

Generating ECPublicKey using Bouncy Castle

This generates the EC public key as used in the JCE/JCA. The Bouncy Castle provider can directly use these software keys. Otherwise Bouncy is just used to generate the parameters required to generate the public key.

package nl.owlstead.stackoverflow;

import static java.nio.charset.StandardCharsets.US_ASCII;

import java.math.BigInteger;
import java.security.KeyFactory;
import java.security.KeyPairGenerator;
import java.security.Security;
import java.security.interfaces.ECPublicKey;
import java.security.spec.ECGenParameterSpec;
import java.security.spec.ECParameterSpec;
import java.security.spec.ECPoint;
import java.security.spec.ECPublicKeySpec;

import javax.crypto.Cipher;

import org.bouncycastle.jce.ECNamedCurveTable;
import org.bouncycastle.jce.provider.BouncyCastleProvider;
import org.bouncycastle.jce.spec.ECNamedCurveParameterSpec;
import org.bouncycastle.jce.spec.ECNamedCurveSpec;
import org.bouncycastle.util.encoders.Hex;

public class ECPublicKeyFactory {

    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {

        String name = "secp256r1";

        Security.addProvider(new BouncyCastleProvider());

        // === NOT PART OF THE CODE, JUST GETTING TEST VECTOR ===
        KeyPairGenerator kpg = KeyPairGenerator.getInstance("EC", "BC");
        ECGenParameterSpec ecGenParameterSpec = new ECGenParameterSpec(name);
        kpg.initialize(ecGenParameterSpec);
        ECPublicKey key = (ECPublicKey) kpg.generateKeyPair().getPublic();
        byte[] x = key.getW().getAffineX().toByteArray();
        byte[] y = key.getW().getAffineY().toByteArray();

        // === here the magic happens ===
        KeyFactory eckf = KeyFactory.getInstance("EC");
        ECPoint point = new ECPoint(new BigInteger(1, x), new BigInteger(1, y));
        ECNamedCurveParameterSpec parameterSpec = ECNamedCurveTable.getParameterSpec(name);
        ECParameterSpec spec = new ECNamedCurveSpec(name, parameterSpec.getCurve(), parameterSpec.getG(), parameterSpec.getN(), parameterSpec.getH(), parameterSpec.getSeed());
        ECPublicKey ecPublicKey = (ECPublicKey) eckf.generatePublic(new ECPublicKeySpec(point, spec));
        System.out.println(ecPublicKey.getClass().getName());

        // === test 123 ===
        Cipher ecies = Cipher.getInstance("ECIESwithAES", "BC");
        ecies.init(Cipher.ENCRYPT_MODE, ecPublicKey);
        byte[] ct = ecies.doFinal("owlstead".getBytes(US_ASCII));
        System.out.println(Hex.toHexString(ct));
    }
}

Generating Bouncy Castle ECPublicKeyParameters

Initially I thought that a Bouncy Castle specific key was required, so the following code generates the EC public key as used in the Bouncy Castle lightweight API.

package nl.owlstead.stackoverflow;

import java.math.BigInteger;
import java.security.KeyPairGenerator;
import java.security.Security;
import java.security.interfaces.ECPublicKey;
import java.security.spec.ECGenParameterSpec;

import org.bouncycastle.asn1.ASN1ObjectIdentifier;
import org.bouncycastle.asn1.x9.ECNamedCurveTable;
import org.bouncycastle.asn1.x9.X9ECParameters;
import org.bouncycastle.crypto.params.ECNamedDomainParameters;
import org.bouncycastle.crypto.params.ECPublicKeyParameters;
import org.bouncycastle.jce.provider.BouncyCastleProvider;
import org.bouncycastle.math.ec.ECCurve;
import org.bouncycastle.math.ec.ECPoint;
import org.bouncycastle.util.encoders.Hex;

public class BC_EC_KeyCreator {

    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {

        String name = "secp256r1";

        // === NOT PART OF THE CODE, JUST GETTING TEST VECTOR ===
        Security.addProvider(new BouncyCastleProvider());
        KeyPairGenerator kpg = KeyPairGenerator.getInstance("EC", "BC");
        kpg.initialize(new ECGenParameterSpec(name));
        ECPublicKey key = (ECPublicKey) kpg.generateKeyPair().getPublic();
        byte[] x = key.getW().getAffineX().toByteArray();
        byte[] y = key.getW().getAffineY().toByteArray();

        // assumes that x and y are (unsigned) big endian encoded
        BigInteger xbi = new BigInteger(1, x);
        BigInteger ybi = new BigInteger(1, y);
        X9ECParameters x9 = ECNamedCurveTable.getByName(name);
        ASN1ObjectIdentifier oid = ECNamedCurveTable.getOID(name);
        ECCurve curve = x9.getCurve();
        ECPoint point = curve.createPoint(xbi, ybi);
        ECNamedDomainParameters dParams = new ECNamedDomainParameters(oid,
                x9.getCurve(), x9.getG(), x9.getN(), x9.getH(), x9.getSeed());
        ECPublicKeyParameters pubKey = new ECPublicKeyParameters(point, dParams);
        System.out.println(pubKey);

        // some additional encoding tricks
        byte[] compressed = point.getEncoded(true);
        System.out.println(Hex.toHexString(compressed));
        byte[] uncompressed = point.getEncoded(false);
        System.out.println(Hex.toHexString(uncompressed));
    }
}

This was mostly tricky because I didn't want to include any JCE specific code, and X9ECParameters is not a subclass of ECDomainParameters. So I used a conversion to ECNamedDomainParameters copied from elsewhere in the code base of Bouncy Castle.

回答2:

In the code which follows, encoded contains 0x04 followed by 32 bytes of X, then 32 bytes of Y.

Alternatively, it can contain 0x02 or 0x03 (dependent on the sign of Y) followed by 32 bytes of X.

public static ECPublicKey decodeKey(byte[] encoded) throws InvalidKeySpecException, NoSuchAlgorithmException, NoSuchProviderException{
    ECNamedCurveParameterSpec params = ECNamedCurveTable.getParameterSpec("secp256k1");
    KeyFactory fact = KeyFactory.getInstance("ECDSA", "BC");
    ECCurve curve = params.getCurve();
    java.security.spec.EllipticCurve ellipticCurve = EC5Util.convertCurve(curve, params.getSeed());
    java.security.spec.ECPoint point = ECPointUtil.decodePoint(ellipticCurve, encoded);
    java.security.spec.ECParameterSpec params2 =EC5Util.convertSpec(ellipticCurve, params);
    java.security.spec.ECPublicKeySpec keySpec = new java.security.spec.ECPublicKeySpec(point,params2);
    return (ECPublicKey) fact.generatePublic(keySpec);
}

回答3:

ECUtil Already provided

ECPublicKeyParameters bcecPublicKey =(ECPublicKeyParameters) ECUtil.generatePublicKeyParameter(kp.getPublic());
ECPrivateKeyParameters bcecPrivateKey = (ECPrivateKeyParameters) ECUtil.generatePrivateKeyParameter(kp.getPrivate());

回答4:

A shorter variation on Thomas' answer, which does not use a KeyFactory would be:

public static ECPublicKey decodeKey(byte[] encoded) {
  ECNamedCurveParameterSpec params = ECNamedCurveTable.getParameterSpec("secp256k1");
  ECPublicKeySpec keySpec = new ECPublicKeySpec(params.getCurve().decodePoint(encoded), params);
  return new BCECPublicKey("ECDSA", keySpec, BouncyCastleProvider.CONFIGURATION);
}

I assume that encoded was obtained by BCECPublicKey.getQ().getEncoded(bool), i.e. it is a byte 0x2-0x4 followed by one or two affine coordinates of the public point on secp256k1.
