Class XMLCipher


  • public class XMLCipher
    extends Object
    XMLCipher encrypts and decrypts the contents of Documents, Elements and Element contents. It was designed to resemble javax.crypto.Cipher in order to facilitate understanding of its functioning.
    • Method Detail

      • setSerializer

        public void setSerializer​(Serializer serializer)
        Set the Serializer algorithm to use
      • getSerializer

        public Serializer getSerializer()
        Get the Serializer algorithm to use
      • getInstance

        public static XMLCipher getInstance​(String transformation)
                                     throws XMLEncryptionException
        Returns an XMLCipher that implements the specified transformation and operates on the specified context document.

        If the default provider package supplies an implementation of the requested transformation, an instance of Cipher containing that implementation is returned. If the transformation is not available in the default provider package, other provider packages are searched.

        NOTE1: The transformation name does not follow the same pattern as that outlined in the Java Cryptography Extension Reference Guide but rather that specified by the XML Encryption Syntax and Processing document. The rational behind this is to make it easier for a novice at writing Java Encryption software to use the library.

        NOTE2: getInstance() does not follow the same pattern regarding exceptional conditions as that used in javax.crypto.Cipher. Instead, it only throws an XMLEncryptionException which wraps an underlying exception. The stack trace from the exception should be self explanatory.

        Parameters:
        transformation - the name of the transformation, e.g., XMLCipher.TRIPLEDES which is shorthand for "http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmlenc#tripledes-cbc"
        Returns:
        the XMLCipher
        Throws:
        XMLEncryptionException

      • init

                  throws XMLEncryptionException
        Initializes this cipher with a key.

        The cipher is initialized for one of the following four operations: encryption, decryption, key wrapping or key unwrapping, depending on the value of opmode. For WRAP and ENCRYPT modes, this also initialises the internal EncryptedKey or EncryptedData (with a CipherValue) structure that will be used during the ensuing operations. This can be obtained (in order to modify KeyInfo elements etc. prior to finalising the encryption) by calling getEncryptedData() or getEncryptedKey().

        Parameters:
        opmode - the operation mode of this cipher (this is one of the following: ENCRYPT_MODE, DECRYPT_MODE, WRAP_MODE or UNWRAP_MODE)
        key -
        Throws:
        XMLEncryptionException

      • registerInternalKeyResolver

        public void registerInternalKeyResolver​(KeyResolverSpi keyResolver)

        public EncryptedKey getEncryptedKey()

      • setKEK

        public void setKEK​(Key kek)
        Set a Key Encryption Key.

        Parameters:
        kek - The key to use for de/encrypting key data

        Decrypt a key from a passed in EncryptedKey structure. This version is used mainly internally, when the cipher already has an EncryptedData loaded. The algorithm URI will be read from the EncryptedData
        Parameters:
        encryptedKey - Previously loaded EncryptedKey that needs to be decrypted.
        Returns:
        a key corresponding to the given type
        Throws:
        XMLEncryptionException
      • decryptToByteArray

        public byte[] decryptToByteArray​(Element element)
                                  throws XMLEncryptionException
        Decrypt an EncryptedData element to a byte array. When passed in an EncryptedData node, returns the decryption as a byte array. Does not modify the source document.
        Parameters:
        element -
        Returns:
        the bytes resulting from the decryption
        Throws:
        XMLEncryptionException
      • createEncryptedData

        public EncryptedData createEncryptedData​(int type,
                                                 String value)
                                          throws XMLEncryptionException
        Creates an EncryptedData Element. The newEncryptedData and newEncryptedKey methods create fairly complete elements that are immediately useable. All the other create* methods return bare elements that still need to be built upon.

        An EncryptionMethod will still need to be added however

        Parameters:
        type - Either REFERENCE_TYPE or VALUE_TYPE - defines what kind of CipherData this EncryptedData will contain.
        value - the Base 64 encoded, encrypted text to wrap in the EncryptedData or the URI to set in the CipherReference (usage will depend on the type
        Returns:
        the EncryptedData Element.
        Throws:
        XMLEncryptionException

        public Transforms createTransforms()
        Create a new Transforms object

        a new Transforms
      • createTransforms

        public Transforms createTransforms​(Document doc)
        Create a new Transforms object Because the handling of Transforms is currently done in the signature code, the creation of a Transforms object requires a context document.
