Im using flexiprovider to encrypt/de with asymmetric algorithm based on Elliptic Curve following this tutorial. With a little modification, i'm gonna convert the public and the private key into Base64 for personal purpose (like storing into the database or text file). I'm also looking at this question and the answer is refer to this thread. But my code are running for dekstop not in android device, android and dekstop version in java i think is a really big difference (just for clean up my question information). Ok, in my code when im going to create the formatted public key from a generated public key i got an error (i think the same problem will happen when i try to do that for the private key).
Now, here's my code:
Keypair generator class.
import org.jivesoftware.smack.util.Base64; //or whatever to convert into Base64
import java.security.KeyPair;
import java.security.KeyPairGenerator;
import java.security.PrivateKey;
import java.security.PublicKey;
import java.security.SecureRandom;
import java.security.Security;
import java.security.KeyFactory;
import javax.crypto.Cipher;
import de.flexiprovider.common.ies.IESParameterSpec;
import de.flexiprovider.core.FlexiCoreProvider;
import de.flexiprovider.ec.FlexiECProvider;
import de.flexiprovider.ec.parameters.CurveParams;
import de.flexiprovider.ec.parameters.CurveRegistry.BrainpoolP160r1;
import de.flexiprovider.pki.PKCS8EncodedKeySpec;
import de.flexiprovider.pki.X509EncodedKeySpec;
...
Security.addProvider(new FlexiCoreProvider());
Security.addProvider(new FlexiECProvider());
KeyPairGenerator kpg = KeyPairGenerator.getInstance("ECIES","FlexiEC");
CurveParams ecParams = new BrainpoolP160r1();
kpg.initialize(ecParams, new SecureRandom());
KeyPair keyPair = kpg.generateKeyPair();
PublicKey pubKey = keyPair.getPublic();
byte[] encod_pubK = pubKey.getEncoded();
String publicKey = Base64.encodeBytes(encod_pubK);
System.out.println("Public Key :" +publikKey);
PrivateKey privKey = keyPair.getPrivate();
byte[] encod_privK = privKey.getEncoded();
String privateKey = Base64.encodeBytes(encod_privK);
System.out.println("Private Key :" +privateKey);
From that code above im going to store the string "privateKey" and "publicKey". Now im going to encrypt the message.
Sender Side
import (same as code above)
...
Security.addProvider(new FlexiCoreProvider());
Security.addProvider(new FlexiECProvider());
Cipher cipher = Cipher.getInstance("ECIES","FlexiEC");
IESParameterSpec iesParams = new IESParameterSpec ("AES128_CBC","HmacSHA1", null, null);
byte[] decodedPubKey = Base64.decode(publicKey);
X509EncodedKeySpec formatted_public = new X509EncodedKeySpec(decodedPubKey);
KeyFactory kf = KeyFactory.getInstance("ECIES","FlexiEC");
PublicKey publicKey = kf.generatePublic(formatted_public); // <--- I got error when hit this row
cipher.init(Cipher.ENCRYPT_MODE, publicKey, iesParams);
byte[] block = "this my message".getBytes();
System.out.println("Plaintext: "+ new String(block));
byte [] Ciphered = cipher.doFinal(block);
System.out.println("Ciphertext : "+ Base64.encodeBytes(Ciphered));
The error from that sender code above is:
Exception in thread "main" de.flexiprovider.api.exceptions.InvalidKeySpecException: java.lang.RuntimeException: java.security.InvalidAlgorithmParameterException: Caught IOException("Unknown named curve: 1.3.36.3.3.2.8.1.1.1")
at de.flexiprovider.ec.keys.ECKeyFactory.generatePublic(ECKeyFactory.java:205)
at de.flexiprovider.api.keys.KeyFactory.engineGeneratePublic(KeyFactory.java:39)
at java.security.KeyFactory.generatePublic(KeyFactory.java:328)
How can i generate that public key with that named curve: 1.3.36.3.3.2.8.1.1.1 ?
Recipient Side (just for another information)
If the sender has been succesfully encrypt the message, now im going to decrypt the message, here's my code (but not sure if this running without an error like the sender code above):
byte[] decodedPrivateKey = Base64.decode(privateKey);
PKCS8EncodedKeySpec formatted_private = new PKCS8EncodedKeySpec(decodedPrivateKey);
cipher.init(Cipher.DECRYPT_MODE, privKey, iesParams);
byte[] decryptedCipher = cipher.doFinal(Ciphered);
System.out.println("Decrypted message : "+ new String (decryptedCipher));
Due to unsolved error with my code above because i think this flexiprovider aren't compatible with jdk-8 where the bug is in "KeyFactory kf = KeyFactory.getInstance("ECIES","FlexiEC")" line which can't find that named curve, i change and decide to use BouncyCastle provider for doing the EC encryption (ECIES) and it works. But there's a question again come in to my mind, as i can see in the Flexiprovider which is use ("AES128_CBC","HmacSHA1", null, null); as the IESParameterSpec.
But for bouncycastle provider i can't find where is the IESParameterSpec which using AES128_CBC as the iesparameterspec, how can i do that if want to change the iesparam into AES128_CBC when i'm using this bouncy provider ?
Somebody please explain about this iesparam spec in bouncy provider i'm new about this.

I've made the following imports:

I have declared a variable N as a large BigInteger and done RSAPublicKeySpec pub=new RSAPublicKeySpec(N, new BigInteger("65537"));. I also have a string array ls. To keep the question simple, ls is defined with String[] ls= {"Abc","abc","a"};.
I have used the following code to create a cipher
Cipher cipher= Cipher.getInstance("RSA");
KeyFactory keyFactory = KeyFactory.getInstance("RSA");
RSAPublicKey publ=(RSAPublicKey) keyFactory.generatePublic(pub);
System.out.println(publ.getPublicExponent()); System.out.println(publ.getModulus()); System.out.println(N);
cipher.init(Cipher.ENCRYPT_MODE, publ);
I then ran this loop:
System.out.println(cipher.doFinal());
int i;
for(i=0;i<3;i++){
byte[] mb=cipher.doFinal(ls[i].getBytes());
BigInteger m=new BigInteger(mb);
System.out.println(ls[i]); System.out.println(mb); System.out.println(m);}
System.out.println(i);
When the full code is run, it outputs random results, despite me specifying a specific key and no extra randomness.
An example result I get:

byte[] bytes = (byte[]) cmsBytes.getContent();
CMSSignedData retrieved = new CMSSignedData(bytes);
System.out.println(retrieved.getSignedContent()); // Doesn't work, is null
}
}
My question is how to retrieve the original CMSSignedData (wanting to read the original message, and verify it), using only the byte array of the ASN.1 encoding of this object.
The reason I am asking this, is that I want to decrypt a certain encrypted and signed message. I am able to decrypt this message, but it results in an ASN.1 encoded byte array (which does correspond to my original message), but I am not able to process this decrypted message any further.
You can use the classes org.bouncycastle.asn1.cms.ContentInfo and org.bouncycastle.asn1.ASN1Sequence:
CMSTypedData cmsBytes = new CMSProcessableByteArray(sd.getEncoded());
byte[] bytes = (byte[]) cmsBytes.getContent();
// reconstruct CMSSignedData from the byte array
ContentInfo ci = ContentInfo.getInstance(ASN1Sequence.fromByteArray(bytes));
CMSSignedData sig = new CMSSignedData(ci);
Also note that you must create a CMSSignedData with the content encapsulated in the signature, so you must change this:
CMSSignedData sd = sGen.generate(msg);
To this:
CMSSignedData sd = sGen.generate(msg, true);

But I checked test.cer and it do have certificate data in there, and that exception message confused me, don't even know what does that mean(object ID? tag = 49? I didn't see I generated an ID in my code.).
Can anyone help me out this mud?
The error message is correct, test.csr does not contain a certificate. You have built it using a PKCS10CertificationRequest, so it consenquently contains a Certificate Signing Request (CSR).
You have generated a key pair, private and public, and a CSR. The CSR is a request of a certificate to a Certification Authority (CA). It contains the public key and some expected attributes for the certificate (CN, C, OU, etc). CSR is signed with the private key and has to be sent to CA. The CA will extract the public key, generates a certificate and signs it. See Certificate enrollment process
If you want a Certificate, you need to get signed the certificate by the CA

First off, Android 4.3 is inherently not secure. There are now multiple exploits including remote ones such as StageFright.
Second, I assume you were talking about some-securerandom-thoughts.html, as your link was dead. It's talking about random number generations, but I don't see that in your code. Instead I see AES encryption, which isn't random at all.
Also, looking at Potentially insecure random numbers on Android 4.3 and older, this warning may have been related to a previous version of your code, which relied on SecureRandom to initialize the KeyGenerator.
Doing a google search for 'aes not secure' brings up all bunch of results and opinions, but it seems secure enough for most people.
Having said that, doing a google for 'ecb not secure' brings up Why shouldn't I use ECB encryption?, which aptly demonstrates why it's not secure. But that's not secure on any platform, not just Android 4.3.
Hope this helps and please clarify if the warning really came from this code snippet or specify the exact line.
I'm using the FlexiEC provider to generate an elliptic curve public key. Then I convert the key into a byte array. After that I want to get an instance of this public key from this byte array. Whenever I do this I get an exception.
The code is as follows:
import java.security.KeyPair;
import java.security.KeyFactory;
import java.security.KeyPairGenerator;
import java.security.PrivateKey;
import java.security.PublicKey;
import java.security.SecureRandom;
import java.security.Security;
import javax.crypto.Cipher;
import de.flexiprovider.common.ies.IESParameterSpec;
import de.flexiprovider.core.FlexiCoreProvider;
import de.flexiprovider.ec.FlexiECProvider;
import de.flexiprovider.ec.parameters.CurveParams;
import de.flexiprovider.ec.parameters.CurveRegistry.BrainpoolP160r1;
import de.flexiprovider.pki.X509EncodedKeySpec;
[...]
KeyPairGenerator kpg = KeyPairGenerator.getInstance("ECIES", "FlexiEC");
CurveParams ecParams = new BrainpoolP160r1();
kpg.initialize(ecParams, new SecureRandom());
KeyPair keyPair = kpg.generateKeyPair();
byte[] pubKey = keyPair.getPublic().getEncoded();
X509EncodedKeySpec pubKeySpec = new X509EncodedKeySpec(pubKey);
KeyFactory keyFactory = KeyFactory.getInstance("ECIES", "FlexiEC");
PublicKey pk = keyFactory.generatePublic(pubKeySpec);
The exception is:
Exception in thread "main" de.flexiprovider.api.exceptions.InvalidKeySpecException: java.lang.RuntimeException: java.security.InvalidAlgorithmParameterException: Caught IOException("Unknown named curve: 1.3.36.3.3.2.8.1.1.1")

at java.security.KeyFactory.generatePublic(KeyFactory.java:328)
at com.test.App.test(App.java:68)
at com.test.App.main(App.java:76)
How can I recover the key correctly from the byte array?
I have some "ECIES", "FlexiEC" code which may be of reference for you. Here is the link:
BadPaddingException: invalid ciphertext
If this helps, the credit goes to owlstead who answered the question for me which enabled me to complete the implementation.
