Reading a PKCS#1 or SPKI public key in Java without libraries

孤街醉人 提交于 2019-12-01 11:06:53

The following code turns a PKCS#1 encoded public key into a SubjectPublicKeyInfo encoded public key, which is the public key encoding accepted by the RSA KeyFactory using X509EncodedKeySpec - as SubjectPublicKeyInfo is defined in the X.509 specifications.

Basically it is a low level DER encoding scheme which

  1. wraps the PKCS#1 encoded key into a bit string (tag 0x03, and a encoding for the number of unused bits, a byte valued 0x00);
  2. adds the RSA algorithm identifier sequence (the RSA OID + a null parameter) in front - pre-encoded as byte array constant;
  3. and finally puts both of those into a sequence (tag 0x30).

No libraries are used. Actually, for createSubjectPublicKeyInfoEncoding, no import statements are even required.

    private static final int SEQUENCE_TAG = 0x30;

    private static final byte[] NO_UNUSED_BITS = new byte[] { 0x00 };

        byte[] buf = new byte[len];

        {
            System.arraycopy(bas[i], 0, buf, off, bas[i].length);
            off += bas[i].length;
        }

        return buf;
    }

        System.arraycopy(lengthEncoding, 0, derEncodingBuf, off, lengthEncoding.length);
        off += lengthEncoding.length;
        System.arraycopy(value, 0, derEncodingBuf, off, value.length);

        return derEncodingBuf;
    }   

    private static byte[] createDERLengthEncoding(int size)
    {
        if (size <= 0x7F)
        {
            // single byte length encoding
            return new byte[] { (byte) size };
        }
        else if (size <= 0xFF)
        {
            // double byte length encoding
            return new byte[] { (byte) 0x81, (byte) size };
        }
        else if (size <= 0xFFFF)
        {
            // triple byte length encoding
            return new byte[] { (byte) 0x82, (byte) (size >> Byte.SIZE), (byte) size };
        }

        throw new IllegalArgumentException("size too large, only up to 64KiB length encoding supported: " + size);
    }

    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception
    {
        // some weird 617 bit key, which is way too small and not a multiple of 8
        byte[] pkcs1PublicKeyEncoding = Base64.getDecoder().decode("MFUCTgF/uLsPBS13Gy7C3dPpiDF6SYCLUyyl6CFqPtZT1h5bwKR9EDFLQjG/kMiwkRMcmEeaLKe5qdj9W/FfFitwRAm/8F53pQw2UETKQI2b2wIDAQAB");
        RSAPublicKey generatePublic = decodePKCS1PublicKey(pkcs1PublicKeyEncoding);
        System.out.println(generatePublic);
    }
}

Notes:

  • NoSuchAlgorithmException should probably be caught and put into a RuntimeException;
  • the private method createDERLengthEncoding should probably not accept negative sizes.
  • Larger keys have not been tested, please validate createDERLengthEncoding for those - I presume it works, but better be safe than sorry.
