Info

This article includes is new for Smart ID Identity Manager 245.0.R11.

This article provides guidance and troubleshooting tips for addressing common error scenarios related to the sign and encrypt engine and how to solve them.

...

This means that one or more demo keys, keys that are considered compromised and unfit for productive use, are still blacklisted keys (such as publicly known demo keys) are in use. Each message indicates the offending descriptor and version from the config configuration XML.

For information about how to replace the keys, see Bootstrapping the sign and encrypt engine.

Note

  • Replacing the EncryptedFields descriptor's key requires re-encryption of existing secrets via thebatch_secretfieldstore_change_encryption_key tool. For more information, see Change encryption key of secret field store.

  • Replacing the ObjectHistorySigner descriptor's key requires re-signing existing history entries via the batch_re-sign_history tool.

  • Replacing the ConfigZipSigner descriptor's key means any previously exported encrypted config ZIP files cannot be decrypted anymore, versioning to enable decryption with historical keys is not supported.

...

  1. The key configured for the ObjectHistorySigner descriptor in the current version (version 2 in the example error message) is wrong, the wrong P12 file might been configured.

  2. The object history got corrupted by accident or deliberate manipulation, forensic analysis may be advisable.

...

This means that the configuration XML for the sign and encrypt engine references a file that does not exist at the given location. All files referenced via the location classpath: usually need to be inside the WEB-INF\classes\ folder of the web application. In Identity Manager versions before 24.R1,that folder did contain all demo keys, which were since removed. Furthermore, theengineSignEncryptConfig.xml shipped in WAR files of 24.R1 and above references additional P12 files not used or not bootstrapped previously. By default, a dedicated P12 file per descriptor is used instead of sharing files between descriptors.

For docker deployment the files have to be placed into the docker/compose/certs folder, which is mounted into /certs inside the container. These files need to be referenced as shown below (replace example.p12 with the proper filename):

Code Block
file:/certs/example.p12

For more information, see Bootstrapping the sign and encrypt engine to bootstrap any missing keys/certificates.
