Class LandmarkCertificateManager

java.lang.Object

org.bouncycastle.cert.plants.LandmarkCertificateManager

public class LandmarkCertificateManager
extends Object

Issuance- and relying-party-side helpers for landmark subtrees, per Sections 6.3 and 7.4 of draft-ietf-plants-merkle-tree-certs.

buildLandmarkCertificate(long, long, TBSCertificateLogEntry, SubjectPublicKeyInfo, MerkleTreePrimitives.SubtreeInfo, List, MerkleTreeHash) produces a landmark-relative certificate (an X.509 wrapper around an MTCProof whose inclusion proof targets a predistributed landmark subtree). The nested LandmarkCertificateManager.TrustedSubtreeManager maintains a relying party's set of trusted landmarks, accepting a new landmark once it has been related to a sufficiently-cosigned reference checkpoint via a subtree consistency proof.

Nested Class Summary

Nested Classes

Modifier and Type	Class	Description
static class	LandmarkCertificateManager.TrustedSubtreeEntry	A trusted subtree along with the reference checkpoint that proved its consistency, per Section 7.4.
static class	LandmarkCertificateManager.TrustedSubtreeManager	Maintains a relying-party-side list of trusted subtrees by accepting new landmarks that come with a cosigned reference checkpoint and a subtree consistency proof.

buildLandmarkCertificate

public static X509CertificateHolder buildLandmarkCertificate(long logNumber,
 long index,
 org.bouncycastle.asn1.x509.TBSCertificateLogEntry tbsCertEntry,
 org.bouncycastle.asn1.x509.SubjectPublicKeyInfo subjectPublicKeyInfo,
 MerkleTreePrimitives.SubtreeInfo landmarkSubtree,
 List<byte[]> inclusionProof,
 MerkleTreeHash hashFunc)
                                                      throws IOException

Builds a landmark-relative certificate (no signatures, only an inclusion proof to a predistributed landmark subtree, Section 6.3.4). The certificate serial number is packed from the log number and the entry's index per Section 6.1: serial = (log_number << 48) | index.

Parameters:

logNumber - number of the issuance log containing the entry (1 <= logNumber <= 2^16-1)

index - the entry's index in the log (0 <= index <= 2^48-1)

tbsCertEntry - the TBSCertificateLogEntry describing the entry

subjectPublicKeyInfo - the actual subject public key (its hash must match tbsCertEntry.subjectPublicKeyInfoHash)

landmarkSubtree - the landmark subtree containing the entry

inclusionProof - inclusion proof hashes from the entry to landmarkSubtree

hashFunc - the log's hash function

Returns:

the landmark-relative certificate

Throws:

IOException
