Jetty 9-为域验证证书启用OCSP装订

Question

I'm having some issues in enabling OCSP stapling in Jetty 9 and I really hope that someone can help me here...hopefully!

For my tests I purchased an SSL certificate from PositiveSSL (Comodo), which gave me a valid/trusted certificate. The domain in this example is "dev.mydomain.com", and it will simply point to my local ip (127.0.0.1).

I then transformed the provided certificate into the Java keystore format.

# Convert certificate to pkcs12
openssl pkcs12 -export -out dev.mydomain.com.pkcs12 -inkey dev.mydomain.com.key -in dev_mydomain_com.crt

# Create java keystore
keytool -importkeystore -srckeystore dev.mydomain.com.pkcs12 -srcstoretype pkcs12 -destkeystore dev.mydomain.com.keystore -deststoretype JKS

This is the simplified Java code I used for creating the Jetty server, activate the certificate, listen on the 443 port (https), and in theory activate OCSP:

Server _server = new Server(); // org.eclipse.jetty.server.Server

HttpConfiguration httpsConfig = new HttpConfiguration();
HttpConnectionFactory http1 = new HttpConnectionFactory(httpsConfig);

SslContextFactory sslContextFactory = new SslContextFactory();
sslContextFactory.setKeyStorePath("dev.mydomain.com.keystore");
sslContextFactory.setKeyStorePassword("mypass");
sslContextFactory.setKeyManagerPassword("mypass");

// sslContextFactory.setValidateCerts(true); // tested
sslContextFactory.setEnableOCSP(true);

SslConnectionFactory ssl = new SslConnectionFactory(sslContextFactory, http1.getProtocol());

// SSL Connector
ServerConnector sslConnector = new ServerConnector(_server, ssl, http1);

sslConnector.setHost("127.0.0.1");
sslConnector.setPort(443);

_server.addConnector(sslConnector);

_server.start();
_server.join();

On Java VM startup I'm also enabling these system properties:

Security.setProperty("ocsp.enable", "true");
System.setProperty("jdk.tls.server.enableStatusRequestExtension", "true");
System.setProperty("com.sun.net.ssl.checkRevocation", "true");

After several tries, I tried also importing the certificate chain into the keystore, but it didn't make any difference on the outcome.

keytool -import -trustcacerts -alias ca -file COMODORSAAddTrustCA.crt -keystore dev.mydomain.com.keystore
keytool -import -trustcacerts -alias dv -file COMODORSADomainValidationSecureServerCA.crt -keystore dev.mydomain.com.keystore
keytool -import -trustcacerts -alias te -file AddTrustExternalCARoot.crt -keystore dev.mydomain.com.keystore

To test whether OCSP was correctly enabled I used a tool called sslyze , but whatever I tried to do the response for OCSP was always negative:

OCSP Stapling - NOT SUPPORTED - Server did not send back an OCSP response

Here is the full output of sslyze:

C:\Tools\sslyze-1_4_1>sslyze --certinfo dev.mydomain.com:443

Sorry for the long post, but I tried to provide as much details as possible!

Thank you! Yuvi

There is really not much that Jetty does with the OSCP configuration values.

The 3 key configuration values ...

1. Enable OCSP

SslContextFactory.setEnableOCSP(true)

That configuration simply sets the ocsp.enable JVM Security property.

2. Set OCSP Responder URL

SslContextFactory.setOcspResponderURL(ocspResponderURL)

If setEnableOSCP(true) and the OcspResponderURL is set, then the ocsp.responderURL JVM Security property is set.

The Jetty Code

    if (_enableOCSP)
    {
        // Enable On-Line Certificate Status Protocol (OCSP) support
        Security.setProperty("ocsp.enable", "true");

        if (_ocspResponderURL != null)
        {
            // Override location of OCSP Responder
            Security.setProperty("ocsp.responderURL", _ocspResponderURL);
        }
    }

These 2 are JVM level configurations, and at this point its the JVM's responsibility to add the OCSP stuff to the TLS/SSL negotiation.

3. Custom Certificate Validator

SslContextFactory.setValidateCerts(true)

If this is set, then the values of the other two are passed into a custom Eclipse Jetty CertificateValidator .

More Jetty Code

if (isValidateCerts())
{
    CertificateValidator validator = new CertificateValidator(trustStore, crls);
    validator.setMaxCertPathLength(getMaxCertPathLength());
    validator.setEnableCRLDP(isEnableCRLDP());
    validator.setEnableOCSP(isEnableOCSP());
    validator.setOcspResponderURL(getOcspResponderURL());
    validator.validate(keyStore, x509C);
}

This is a server side component that just validates the certificates that the server will use on startup. It only occurs once, when the keystore/truststore is loaded.
