I'm trying to execute code to perform the Diffie-Hellman key exchange. I sourced the code from an example online (forget where now). I had to import the bouncycastle.jar, which I assumed worked up until execution.
my code:
package testproject;
import java.math.BigInteger;
import java.security.KeyPair;
import java.security.KeyPairGenerator;
import java.security.MessageDigest;
import java.security.SecureRandom;
import java.security.Security;
import javax.crypto.KeyAgreement;
import javax.crypto.spec.DHParameterSpec;
public class KeyGen {
private static BigInteger g512 = new BigInteger("1234567890", 16);
//generates a random, non-negative integer for Base
private static BigInteger p512 = new BigInteger("1234567890", 16);
//generates a random, non-negative integer for Prime
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
Security.addProvider(new org.bouncycastle.jce.provider.BouncyCastleProvider());
DHParameterSpec dhParams = new DHParameterSpec(p512, g512);
//Specify parameters to use for the algorithm
KeyPairGenerator keyGen = KeyPairGenerator.getInstance("DH", "BC");
//Define specific algorithm to use "diffie-hellman", with provider "bc"
keyGen.initialize(dhParams, new SecureRandom());
//initialize with parameters & secure random seed
KeyAgreement aKeyAgree = KeyAgreement.getInstance("DH", "BC");
//define algorithm for A's key agreement
KeyPair aPair = keyGen.generateKeyPair();
//generate keyPair for A
KeyAgreement bKeyAgree = KeyAgreement.getInstance("DH", "BC");
//define algorithm for B's key agreement
KeyPair bPair = keyGen.generateKeyPair();
//generate keyPair for B
aKeyAgree.init(aPair.getPrivate());
//initialize A's keyAgreement with A's private key
bKeyAgree.init(bPair.getPrivate());
//initialize B's keyAgreement with B's private key
aKeyAgree.doPhase(bPair.getPublic(), true);
//do last phase of A's keyAgreement with B's public key
bKeyAgree.doPhase(aPair.getPublic(), true);
//do last phase of B's keyAgreement with A's public key
MessageDigest hash = MessageDigest.getInstance("SHA1", "BC");
System.out.println(new String(hash.digest(aKeyAgree.generateSecret())));
//generate secret key for A, hash it.
System.out.println(new String(hash.digest(bKeyAgree.generateSecret())));
//generate secret key for B, hash it.
}
}
This is the line causing the problem:
KeyPair aPair = keyGen.generateKeyPair();
I'm confused as to what the error is, as I've found each of the methods it's returning 'unknown source' for.
Any light shed on this would be much appreciated.
