#2291 Support Lightweight CA key replication with non-RSA host authority
Closed: migrated 3 years ago by dmoluguw. Opened 8 years ago by ftweedal.

JSS only supports RSA key wrapping, therefore lightweight CA
key replication will only work with RSA host authority.

We eventually need to support lightweight CA key replication with
EC host authority. Some potential approaches:

  • Update JSS/NSS to support EC-based key wrapping.

  • Delegate key wrapping/unwrapping to an RSA key (presumably
    signed by the host authority).

  • Find a way to allow external processes to insert keys into the NSSDB
    without requiring Java process restart to see the new keys,
    i.e. avoid the key wrapping scheme altogether.
