Android KeyStore parameters building










0















I'm trying to use RSA encryption with KeyStore and I need to specify Parameters for KeyPairGenerator and I'm lost here. KeyPairGeneratorPair is kinda straightforward, but I don't understand KeyGenParameterSpec for API>=23



That's what I did, I think I got everything in else part, but now I'm confused about KeyGenParameterSpec



What exactly public exponent in RSAKeyGenParameterSpec is?



What Digests in .setDigests should i specify?



There's also .setBlockMode() method to call, and since I'm using RSA and RSA/None/OAEPWithSHA1AndMGF1Paddingwhich block mode to set? ECB, CBC?



if(Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.M) KeyProperties.PURPOSE_DECRYPT)
.setAlgorithmParameterSpec(new RSAKeyGenParameterSpec(2048, RSAKeyGenParameterSpec.F4))
.setDigests(KeyProperties.DIGEST_SHA1,
KeyProperties.DIGEST_SHA256)
.setEncryptionPaddings(KeyProperties.ENCRYPTION_PADDING_RSA_OAEP)
.setCertificateSerialNumber(BigInteger.ONE)
.setCertificateSubject(new X500Principal("CN=" + "PrivateKey"))
.setCertificateNotBefore(calendar.getTime())
.setCertificateNotAfter(endCalendar.getTime())
.setKeySize(2048).build());
else
generator.initialize(new KeyPairGeneratorSpec.Builder(MainActivity.this)
.setAlias("PrivateKey")
.setSerialNumber(BigInteger.ONE)
.setSubject(new X500Principal("CN=" + "PrivateKey"))
.setStartDate(calendar.getTime())
.setEndDate(endCalendar.getTime())
.setKeySize(2048).build()

);


Cipher cipher = Cipher.getInstance("RSA/None/OAEPWithSHA1AndMGF1Padding");

          Method setDigests() sets digest method for your padding mode and setBlockMode() sets encryption mode which depends on your work.



          I think you have set a lot of unnecessary field. For example I use this method to create my own RSA key:



          public boolean createKey() IOException 


          I created this key to use with RSA/ECB/OAEPWithSHA-256AndMGF1Padding algorithm.

          • Oh, so i don't need to specify those fields at all. One more thing, how do I know which Digest to use? Like SHA256 or SHA512? If i use OAEPWithSHA1 does that mean that i should use SHA1?
