There are several options for how this key derivation function can work, and each of these options has different security properties. For example, the key derivation function may bind the secret key to some information about the context or the parties involved in the key agreement. Without a clear specification of the behavior of this method, there is a risk that the key derivation function will not have some security property that is expected by the client.

Announcing the Java Playground

The dns_lookup_realm setting in Kerberos’ krb5.conf file is by default false. The jdk.tls.client.protocols system property is now available with the release of JDK 7u95. This property was originally introduced in JDK 8 and behaves in the same way.

Java is an excellent choice for cross-platform applications like web applications, Android apps, cloud applications, machine learning environments, and the Internet of Things. The issue can arise when the server doesn’t have elliptic curve cryptography support to handle an elliptic curve name extension field (if present). By default, JDK 7 Updates and later JDK families ship with the SunEC security provider which provides elliptic curve cryptography support. Those releases should not be impacted unless security providers are modified.

To mitigate the problem, we remove SHA224 from the default support list if SunMSCAPI is enabled. Serialization Filtering introduces a new mechanism which allows incoming streams of object-serialization data to be filtered in order to improve both security and robustness. Every ObjectInputStream applies a filter, if configured, to the java 7 certifications stream contents during deserialization. Filters are set using either a system property or a configured security property. The value of the “jdk.serialFilter” patterns are described in JEP 290 Serialization Filtering and in /lib/security/java.security. Filter actions are logged to the ‘java.io.serialization’ logger, if enabled.
