# wolfSSL JSSE Provider and JNI Wrapper
This package provides Java support for the
[wolfSSL embedded SSL/TLS library](https://www.wolfssl.com/products/wolfssl/),
giving applications support for SSL/TLS up to the current
[TLS 1.3](https://www.wolfssl.com/tls13) protocol level.
It contains both a wolfSSL **JSSE** (Java Secure Socket Extension) provider,
called **wolfJSSE**, and a thin JNI-based interface that wraps the native C
library.
wolfSSL also provides a **JCE** (Java Cryptography Extension) provider that
wraps native wolfCrypt. This can be found in a separate repository, located
[here](https://github.com/wolfSSL/wolfcrypt-jni).
## Why use wolfJSSE?
This interface gives Java applications access to all the benefits of using
wolfSSL, including current SSL/TLS standards up to
[TLS 1.3](https://www.wolfssl.com/tls13),
[FIPS 140-2 and 140-3](https://www.wolfssl.com/license/fips/) support,
performance optimizations, hardware cryptography support,
[commercial support](https://www.wolfssl.com/products/support-and-maintenance/),
and more!
## User Manual
The wolfSSL JNI/JSSE Manual is available on the wolfSSL website:
[wolfSSL JNI Manual](https://www.wolfssl.com/documentation/manuals/wolfssljni/).
For additional build instructions and more detailed comments, please reference
the manual.
## Building
wolfJSSE currently supports compilation on the following platforms:
- Linux/Unix
- Mac OSX
- [Windows (Visual Studio)](./IDE/WIN/README.md)
- Android Studio
- Android AOSP
To build wolfJSSE on Windows using Visual Studio, please reference the
Windows [README.md](./IDE/WIN/README.md).
## Building Native wolfSSL (Dependency)
To compile the wolfSSL JNI wrapper and JSSE provider, first the native (C)
wolfSSL library must be compiled and installed.
To build wolfJSSE in Linux/Unix environments, first download, compile, and
install wolfSSL. wolfSSL can be downloaded from the wolfSSL
[download page](https://www.wolfssl.com/download/) or cloned from
[GitHub](https://github.com/wolfssl/wolfssl).
```
$ unzip wolfssl-X.X.X.zip
$ cd wolfssl-X.X.X
$ ./configure --enable-jni
$ make check
$ sudo make install
```
If building a wolfSSL FIPS or FIPS Ready release bundle, additional
configure options may be required. Reference the wolfSSL Manual and build
documentation for exact build instructions.
## Building with ant
wolfSSL JNI/JSSE's ant build is the most stable and well-tested. Newer support
for building with Maven has also been added. See section below for instructions
on building with Maven.
***Note 1)***
The `java.sh` script uses a common location for the Java install location. If
your Java install location is different, this could lead to an error when
running `java.sh`. In this case, you should modify `java.sh` to match your
environment.
Build targets for ant are :
* **ant build (ant)** (only builds the jar necessary for an app to use)
* **ant test** (builds the jar and tests then runs the tests, requires JUNIT setup)
* **ant examples** (builds the jar and example cases)
* **ant clean** (cleans all Java artifacts)
* **ant cleanjni** (cleans native artifacts)
To build wolfJSSE:
```
$ cd wolfssljni
$ ./java.sh
$ ant
$ export JUNIT_HOME=/path/to/junit/jars
$ ant test
```
To compile and run the examples, use the `ant examples` target:
```
$ ant examples
```
Then, run the examples from the root directory using the provided wrapper
scripts:
```
$ ./examples/provider/ServerJSSE.sh
$ ./examples/provider/ClientJSSE.sh
```
## Building with Maven
wolfJSSE supports building and packaging with Maven, for those projects that
are already set up to use and consume Maven packages.
wolfJSSE's Maven build configuration is defined in the included `pom.xml`.
First, compile the native JNI shared library (libwolfssljni.so/dylib) same
as above. This will create the native JNI shared library under the `./lib`
directory:
```
$ ./java.sh
```
Compile the Java sources, where Maven will place the compiled `.class` files
under the `./target/classes` directory:
```
$ mvn compile
```
Compile and run JUnit tests using:
```
$ mvn test
```
Package up the wolfSSL JNI/JSSE JAR file using the following command. This will
run the JUnit tests then create a `.jar` file located under the `./target`
directory, similar to `target/wolfssl-jsse-X.X.X-SNAPSHOT.jar`:
```
$ mvn package
```
To build the Javadoc API reference for wolfSSL JNI/JSSE run the following. This
will generate Javadoc HTML under the `./docs/apidocs` directory:
```
$ mvn javadoc:javadoc
```
To install the wolfSSL JNI/JSSE JAR file, run the following. This will install
the JAR into the local Maven repository:
```
$ mvn install
```
The local Maven repository installation location will be similar to:
```
~/.m2/repository/com/wolfssl/wolfssl-jsse/X.X.X-SNAPSHOT/wolfssl-jsse-X.X.X-SNAPSHOT.jar
```
The wolfSSL JNI shared library (`libwolfssljni.so/dylib`) created with the
`java.sh` script will need to be "installed" by being placed on your native
library search path. For example, copied into `/usr/local/lib`, `/usr/lib`,
or other location. Alternatively, append the `./libs` directory to your native
library search path by exporting `LD_LIBRARY_PATH` (Linux) or
`DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH` (OSX):
```
$ export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/path/to/wolfssljni/lib
```
After wolfSSL JNI/JSSE has been installed into the local Maven repository,
an application can include this as a dependency in the application's
`pom.xml` file, similar to:
```
...
com.wolfssl
wolfssl-jsse
1.13.0-SNAPSHOT
...
```
## Examples
Examples of using wolfssljni can be found in the `./examples` subdirectory.
See [examples/README.md](./examples/README.md) for more details.
Examples of using the wolfJSSE provider can be found in the `./examples/provider`
subdirectory. See [examples/provider/README.md](./examples/provider/README.md)
for more details.
Example certificates and keys are included in this bundle. These should only
be used for testing and prototyping. Example certificates included here are
duplicates of the ones that ship with standard wolfSSL. If needed, certificates
can be easily updated from an existing wolfSSL directory by using the script
**examples/certs/update-certs.sh**. This should be run from the examples/certs
directory and given one argument which is the path to a wolfSSL certs directory.
## Debugging
wolfSSL JNI/JSSE supports several System properties for enabling debug
logging. The table below describes the currently-supported debug properties
and what each enables.
| System Property | Default | To Enable | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| wolfssl.debug | "false" | "true" | Enables native wolfSSL debug logging |
| wolfjsse.debug | "false" | "true | Enables wolfJSSE debug logging |
| wolfjsse.debugFormat | | "JSON" | Switches debug output format |
| wolfsslengine.debug | "false" | "true" | Enables SSLEngine debug logging |
| wolfsslengine.io.debug | "false" | "true" | Enables SSLEngine I/O bytes log |
Native wolfSSL logging (`wolfssl.debug`) will only output messages if
native wolfSSL has been configured with `--enable-debug`.
These System properties can be defined at runtime, ie:
```
java -Dwolfjsse.debug=true App
```
Or these system properties can also be set programmatically at runtime, ie:
```
System.setProperty("wolfjsse.debug", "true");
System.setProperty("wolfsslengine.debug", "true);
```
JDK debug logging can be enabled using the `-Djavax.net.debug=all` option.
### JSON Log Message Format
Debug messages can be output in JSON format for consumption by tools such as
DataDog. Setting the following System property to "JSON" will cause all debug
messages to print in JSON instead of the default text output:
```
System.setProperty("wolfjsse.debugFormat", "JSON");
```
This can also be specified at runtime on the command line like so:
```
-Dwolfjsse.debug=true -Dwolfjsse.debugFormat=JSON
```
Debug messages will look similar to the following when output in JSON format:
```
{
"@timestamp": "2024-04-05 11:13:07.193",
"level": "INFO",
"logger_name": "wolfJSSE",
"message": "[ WolfSSLTrustManager] entered engineInit()",
"thread_name": "main",:
"thread_id": "1"
}
```
## Building for Android
wolfSSL JNI and JSSE can be built and used on the Android platform, either
at the application-level or installed inside a modified version of the
Android AOSP at the system-level.
### Android Application Level Usage
An example Android Studio application is included in this package, to show
users how they could include the wolfSSL native and wolfSSL JNI/JSSE sources
in an Android Studio application. For more details, see the Android Studio
project and README.md located in the [./IDE/Android](./IDE/Android) directory.
Using wolfJSSE at the application level will allow developers to register
wolfJSSE as a Security provider at the application scope. The application can
use the Java Security API for SSL/TLS operations which will then use the
underlying wolfJSSE provider (and subsequently native wolfSSL).
Applications can register the wolfJSSE provider using:
```
import com.wolfssl.provider.jsse.WolfSSLProvider;
...
Security.addProvider(new WolfSSLProvider());
```
To instead insert the WolfSSLProvider as the top priority provider, or at
a specified index (note: indexing starts at 1):
```
import com.wolfssl.provider.jsse.WolfSSLProvider;
...
Security.insertProviderAt(new WolfSSLProvider(), 1);
```
There are also additional Android examples using wolfSSL JNI in the
[wolfssl-examples](https://github.com/wolfssl/wolfssl-examples/tree/master/android) repository.
### Android AOSP System Level Installation
wolfJSSE can be installed inside an Android AOSP build and registered at the
OS/system level. This will allow wolfJSSE to be registered as the highest
priority JSSE provider on Android, thus allowing any application using the
Java Security API to automatically use wolfJSSE and wolfSSL.
For details on how to install wolfJSSE in Android AOSP, see the README located
in the [./platform/android_aosp](./platform/android_aosp) directory.
Additional instructions can be found on the wolfSSL.com website:
[Installing a JSSE Provider in Android OSP](https://www.wolfssl.com/docs/installing-a-jsse-provider-in-android-osp/).
## Behavior and Functionality Notes
### JSSE Class Implementation Support
wolfJSSE extends or implements the following JSSE classes:
- javax.net.ssl.SSLContextSpi
- SSL, TLS, DEFAULT, TLSv1, TLSv1.1, TLSv1.2, TLSv1.3
- javax.net.ssl.KeyManagerFactorySpi
- PKIX, X509, SunX509
- javax.net.ssl.TrustManagerFactorySpi
- PKIX, X509, SunX509
- javax.net.ssl.SSLEngine
- javax.net.ssl.SSLSession / ExtendedSSLSession
- javax.net.ssl.X509KeyManager / X509ExtendedKeyManager
- javax.net.ssl.X509TrustManager / X509ExtendedTrustManager
- javax.net.ssl.SSLServerSocket
- javax.net.ssl.SSLServerSocketFactory
- javax.net.ssl.SSLSocket
- javax.net.ssl.SSLSocketFactory
- javax.net.ssl.SSLSessionContext
- java.security.cert.X509Certificate
- javax.security.cert.X509Certificate
### Secure Renegotiation Support
wolfSSL JNI and JSSE provider wrap native wolfSSL APIs to enable and conduct
secure renegotiation. For secure renegotiation functionality to be available
in wolfSSL JNI, and enabled for use in wolfJSSE, native wolfSSL must be
compiled with secure renegotiation support:
```
$ ./configure --enable-secure-renegotiation
```
Or by defining `-DHAVE_SECURE_RENEGOTIATION`.
### Native File Descriptor Events
wolfSSL JNI/JSSE internally makes several calls that operate on native
file descriptors inside Java Socket objects. These native file descriptors
are watched for read and write events with either `select()` or `poll()`.
By default `poll()` will be used, unless `WOLFJNI_USE_IO_SELECT` is defined
or added to CFLAGS when compiling the native JNI sources (see `java.sh`).
Windows builds will also default to using `select()` since `poll()` is not
available there.
wolfSSL JNI/JSSE does not select/poll on a large number of file descriptors
(typically just one). Although if used in applications that make lots of
connections, when using `select()` the `FD_ISSET` and other related macros
result in undefined behavior when the file descriptor number is larger than
`FD_SETSIZE` (defaults to 1024 on most systems). For this reason, `poll()` is
used as the default descriptor monitoring function.
### Security Property Support
wolfJSSE allows for some customization through the `java.security` file
and use of Security properties.
Support is included for the following pre-existing Java Security properties.
**keystore.type (String)** - Specifies the default KeyStore type. This defaults
to JKS, but could be set to something else if desired.
**jdk.tls.disabledAlgorithms (String)** - Can be used to disable algorithms,
TLS protocol versions, and key lengths, among other things. This should be a
comma-delimited String. wolfJSSE includes partial support for this property,
with supported items including disabling SSL/TLS protocol versions and setting
minimum RSA/ECC/DH key sizes. An example of potential use:
```
jdk.tls.disabledAlgorithms=SSLv3, TLSv1.1, DH keySize < 1024, EC keySize < 224, RSA keySize < 1024
```
The following custom wolfJSSE-specific Security property settings are supported.
These can be placed into the `java.security` file and will be parsed and used
by wolfJSSE.
**wolfjsse.enabledCipherSuites (String)** - Allows restriction of the enabled
cipher suiets to those listed in this Security property. When set, applications
wil not be able to override or add additional suites at runtime without
changing this property. This should be a comma-delimited String. Example use:
```
wolfjsse.enabledCipherSuites=TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_256_GCM_SHA384, TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256
```
**wolfjsse.enabledSupportedCurves (String)** - Allows setting of specific ECC
curves to be enabled for SSL/TLS connections. This propogates down to the native
wolfSSL API `wolfSSL_UseSupportedCurve()`. If invalid/bad values are found
when processing this property, connection establishment will fail with an
SSLException. This should be a comma-delimited String. Example use:
```
wolfjsse.enabledSupportedCurves=secp256r1, secp521r1
```
**wolfjsse.enabledSignatureAlgorithms (String)** - Allows restriction of the
signature algorithms sent in the TLS ClientHello Signature Algorithms
Extension. By using/setting this property, native wolfSSL will not populate
the extension with default values, which are based on what algorithms have been
compiled into the native wolfSSL library. This should be a comma-delimited
String of signature algorithm + MAC combinations. Example use:
```
wolfjsse.enabledSignatureAlgorithms=RSA+SHA256:ECDSA+SHA256
```
**wolfjsse.keystore.type.required (String)** - Can be used to specify a KeyStore
type that is required to be used. If this is set, wolfJSSE will not allow use
of any KeyStore instances that are not of this type. One use of this option
is when using wolfCrypt FIPS 140-2/3 with wolfJCE registered as a JCE provider.
This option can be used to restrict use of the wolfJCE "WKS" KeyStore type
to help ensure conformance to using FIPS-validated cryptography. Other
non-wolfJCE KeyStore implementations may not use/consume FIPS validated crypto.
**wolfjsse.clientSessionCache.disabled (String)** - Can be used to disable
the Java client session cache. Disabling this will cause client-side session
resumption to no longer resume, making all connections fall back to a full
handshake. This should be set to the String "true" if you want to disable
the Java client session cache. This does not need to be set to "enable" the
cache. The Java client cache is enabled by default.
```
wolfjsse.clientSessionCache.disabled=true
```
If there are other Security properties you would like to use with wolfJSSE,
please contact [email protected].
### System Property Support
wolfJSSE allows some customization through the use of System properties. Since
these are **System** properties and not **Security** properties, they will not
get picked up if placed in the `java.security` file. That file is only used
with/for Security properties (see section above).
**javax.net.ssl.keyStore (String)** - Can be used to specify the KeyStore file
to use for KeyManager objects. An alternative to passing in the KeyStore file
programatically at runtime.
**javax.net.ssl.keyStoreType (String)** - Can be used to specify the KeyStore
type to use when getting KeyStore instances inside KeyManager objects.
**javax.net.ssl.keyStorePassword (String)** - Can be used to specify the
KeyStore password to use for initializing KeyManager instances.
**javax.net.ssl.trustStore (String)** - Can be used to specify the KeyStore
file to use with TrustManager objects. An alternative to passing in the
KeyStore file programatically at runtime.
**javax.net.ssl.trustStoreType (String)** - Can be used to specify the KeyStore
type to use when loading KeyStore inside TrustManager objects.
**javax.net.ssl.trustStorePassword (String)** - Can be used to specify the
KeyStore password to use when loading KeyStore inside TrustManager objects.
**jdk.tls.client.enableSessionTicketExtension (boolean)** - Session tickets
are enabled in different ways depending on the JDK implementation. For
Oracle/OpenJDK and variants, this System property enables session tickets and
was added in Java 13. Should be set to "true" to enable.
If there are other System properties you would like to use with wolfJSSE,
please contact [email protected].
