Java 9 弃用 SHA1 证书，还是工作中的另一个问题?

Java 9 deprecating SHA1 certificates, or another issue at work?(Java 9 弃用 SHA1 证书，还是工作中的另一个问题?)

问题描述

[UPDATE] Oracle just revised the crypto roadmap (https://www.java.com/en/jre-jdk-cryptoroadmap.html), they will not deprecate SHA-1 for codesigning: 2017-03-14 Target date changed from 2017-04-18 to 2017-07-18. Narrowed scope from all SHA-1 usage: only TLS will be affected, *code signing will not not be affected at this time*.

This does not affect, in any way, the fine answer I received below, as it will apply, no doubt, in the future.

Original post:

Attempting to run our Webstart-deployed Java application on JRE 9 ea 153, I get the following popup:

Looking further at details, I see that the certificate will still be valid for a while:

, therefore, I am wondering if deprecating SHA1 is the reason?

This certainly does sound like a policy in line with (others' in the industry), but the message doesn't really sound neophyte-friendly (especially if it is meant to face end-users), so I am left wondering.

I looked for a roadmap. This is what I found, but I'm not sure whether I'm interpreting correctly this paragraph correctly:

Disable SHA-1 in certificate chains anchored by roots included by default in Oracle's JDK; local or enterprise CAs are not affected. Signed code that is timestamped before 2017-01-01 is not affected.

as the reason for the failure above. I would very much appreciate a confirmation.

FWIW, our certificate is issued by a CA, which I presume is different from an "enterprise" CA.

Thank you.

If that signed Jar is meant to be used by end-users there is no way a package that was SHA1 signed in 2017 is going to work.

Phasing out SHA1 was announced a long time ago. Only way would be to install a local CA or something, but that is not going to happen on end-user machines (neither should it).

To sign a Jar for your end-users you need a new valid SHA-256 Cert from your CA, and re-sign any Jar that was signed with the old one AFTER 31.12.2016. Your cert would have expired in a few month anyway.

Whether you have to dualsign your jars depends on the oldest JVM version you are targeting. As far as i understand it anything >=1.4.2 supports SHA-256. If you want to target even older Versions (hell when i started programming java 1.5 was already considered OLD) you would need something like dual-signing. More Information can be found here and here

"How to dual sign a jar" is probably a new topic because it is hardly related to this question i think.
