Ok I have checked the RFC3280 http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3280.txt which
defined the algorithm implemented by the SUN provider.
So we have a certificate path and a TrustAnchors which must respect the
following constraints:
(a) for all x in {1, ..., n-1}, the subject of certificate x is
the issuer of certificate x+1;
*(b) certificate 1 is issued by the trust anchor;*
(c) certificate n is the certificate to be validated; and
(d) for all x in {1, ..., n}, the certificate was valid at the
time in question.
The problem is the point b. I have noticed that in the certificate path I
have the Intermediate CA as certificate 1 and the client certificate as
certificate 2. In my trust anchor set I got the Intermediate CA.
The problem is that as , the Intermediate CA is not self-signed, b is not
true.
While debugging the Merlin classe I have removed the Intermediate CA from
the path and then everything works fine. I'm using WSS4J 2.0.4 and don't
know if there is a way to fix this by a configuration or a bug(not sure
it's one) fix ?
Best Regards,
Claude
