Bouncy Castle Crypto Package - Release Notes

1.0 Introduction

The Bouncy Castle Crypto package is a Java implementation of cryptographic algorithms. The package is organised so that it contains a light-weight API suitable for use in any environment (including the J2ME) with the additional infrastructure to conform the algorithms to the JCE framework.

2.0 Release History

2.1.1 Version

Release: 1.86
Date: 2026, TBD

2.1.2 Defects Fixed

• The high-level OpenPGP API (org.bouncycastle.openpgp.api) let a subkey inherit the primary key's Key Flags when its own Subkey Binding signature carried no Key Flags subpacket, which made the two capability decisions taken for one subkey disagree. OpenPGPCertificate.OpenPGPComponentKey.isSigningKey() reads the effective flags, which fell back to the primary key's direct-key or primary user ID self-signature, so a subkey bound with no flags of its own counted as signing-capable; verifyEmbeddedPrimaryKeyBinding reads the binding signature's own flags, found no signing capability there, and so skipped the embedded Primary Key Binding (cross-certification) signature that RFC 9580 sec. 5.2.1.8 and sec. 10.1.3 require of a subkey that can issue signatures. A data signature made by such a subkey was therefore attributed to the certificate and reported valid by OpenPGPSignature.OpenPGPDocumentSignature.isValid() with the cross-certification requirement never applied, where GnuPG refuses the same certificate and message as not cross-certified. An attacker holding a third party's public signing subkey - which is public material - could bind it to their own primary key with a Subkey Binding signature they are able to make, carrying no Key Flags and no embedded Primary Key Binding signature, which they cannot make without the subkey's private key, and have that party's genuine signatures verify as valid under the attacker's own identity: misattribution of a real signature rather than a forgery of a new one, since the signature still has to be one the subkey actually made. Key Flags are a statement about the key the carrying signature refers to (RFC 9580 sec. 5.2.3.29), so a subkey no longer inherits them from the certificate-wide signatures of the primary key: a Subkey Binding signature that omits the subpacket now leaves the subkey with no capabilities rather than the primary's, which makes the flags the cross-certification check consults the same flags every other decision consults. Preferences and the other subpackets a direct-key signature carries are inherited as before, and the primary key itself - whose flags legitimately come from its direct-key or user ID self-signature - is unaffected. The low-level PGPSignature / PGPPublicKeyRing API performs no binding checks by design and is unchanged.
• Neither the HSS nor the XMSS^MT private key decoder checked its declared index against the traversal state stored beside it, although the two are independent records of the same position in the key and so can be compared. For HSS the records are the top-level index and the component keys' one-time indices q; for XMSS^MT they are the global index and the per-layer BDS states. A stored key whose index had been rolled back while its state stayed advanced - a partial write, a restore from backup, a buggy storage layer - was therefore accepted, and it then signed a second message under a one-time key the key had already used, producing a signature that verified, so nothing anywhere surfaced the reuse. RFC 8554 sec. 1 and RFC 8391 sec. 1.1 both require each one-time key to be used exactly once, and this is the failure those requirements exist to prevent; the single-tree XMSS decoder has tied its BDS state to its index since that state was first validated, and this brings the two multi-tree schemes into line. HSS decode now requires the declared index to equal the position the component q values imply - a level above the last contributes (q - 1) leaves of the levels beneath it, since its q has already advanced past the subtree it signed - and XMSS^MT decode now requires each present layer's BDS index to equal the leaf index that layer derives from the global index, allowing the one position where a layer has moved into a new subtree and its state legitimately still carries the previous subtree's final index. A layer with no state yet is unaffected, since those are built lazily at signing time. Related, and the same shape of omission: an XMSS or XMSS^MT private key encoding carries the tree root twice - the key's own root field and the root node of the BDS state stored beside it, which for XMSS^MT is the top layer's - and the two were never compared either. A corrupted root was accepted and then poisoned every signature the key made, because the root is hashed into the message digest: the signature did not verify and nothing indicated why. Decode now requires the two copies to agree. The BDS node values themselves are not checkable the way the LMS tree cache above is - a BDS authentication path, stack, retain or keep node does not have its children stored alongside it, so recomputing one means building a subtree, which is the work the state exists to avoid. Both checks are integer comparisons over the levels of the key, too small to measure against the surrounding decode, and both were verified not to reject any legitimate key by walking every index a key can reach: the full key space of the two-level HSS and the h=4/d=2, h=6/d=2, h=6/d=3, h=9/d=3 and h=8/d=4 XMSS^MT parameter sets, plus a three-level HSS key across a subtree boundary and an HSS shard. Since those node values cannot be recomputed, the encoded state now carries a checksum over itself instead, with the owning key's public seed hashed in front of it. Any corruption of the stored state is refused at decode rather than being loaded and then producing signatures that silently do not verify, and because the public seed is bound in, a state transplanted between two keys of the same parameter set is refused too, even though it is internally consistent and arrives with its own matching root. The public seed is bound rather than the secret seed or the PRF key deliberately: the state's own root and index are inside the encoding and so are already covered, hashing secret material would make the stored checksum a commitment to it for no gain in detection, and the PRF key does not influence the state at all. This is an error-detecting code and not integrity protection - anyone able to rewrite the stored key recomputes it, so it establishes that the state is unchanged since it was written, never that it was correct when written, and the allocation bounds on the encoding remain the guard against a crafted one. It costs one SHA-256 over the state, measured at 5 to 8 microseconds each way for the h=10 and h=16 parameter sets, and 32 bytes of encoding. The state encoding was added earlier in this same cycle and has not been released, so the checksum is simply part of it rather than a new version: a state written by a 1.86 beta is rejected, which is recovered from by re-exporting the key. The deprecated org.bouncycastle.pqc.crypto.lms copy carries the HSS check as well (github #2414).
• The S/MIME example smoke test in the misc module (org.bouncycastle.mail.smime.examples.test.AllTests) drove SendSignedAndEncryptedMail against smtp.gmail.com, and that example finishes with Transport.send() under JavaMail's default settings, which have no connect timeout. Where outbound port 25 is refused the failure was swallowed and the test passed; where it is silently dropped, as on many home networks, the connect blocked and ./gradlew build hung in :misc:test indefinitely with "0 tests completed". The test now delivers to an SMTP stub on a loopback port, with connect / read / write timeouts as a backstop, and asserts the message arrived (github #2407).
• Composite ML-KEM encapsulation took the traditional component public key bytes it feeds the KEM combiner from the recipient key's own encoding, while decapsulation recomputes the point from the private key and so always produced an uncompressed one. Section 4 of draft-ietf-lamps-pq-composite-kem requires an EC component to be carried as an uncompressed point, but a component key that encodes itself compressed - a BC EC key whose point format has been set through org.bouncycastle.jce.interfaces.ECPointEncoder, or a key from a provider that preserves a compressed encoding - was passed through as it came. Both sides then combined a different tradPK and derived different shared secrets, with no error reported on either: encapsulation and decapsulation both succeeded and the recipient simply could not decrypt. The EC component is now normalised to an uncompressed point wherever the engine serialises one, which covers the ephemeral key that forms the ciphertext as well. X25519 and X448 components have a single encoding and were unaffected, as were EC keys left in their default (uncompressed) format, whose shared secrets are unchanged. CompositePublicKey.getEncoded() took its component bytes the same way, so such a key also encoded to a composite key other implementations reject and whose bytes changed across an encode / decode / encode round trip - 1238 bytes rather than 1270 for MLKEM768-ECDH-P256, and for the composite ML-DSA keys sharing that method, 2006 rather than 2038 for MLDSA65-ECDSA-P256. It now normalises the component the same way. This is a write-side change only: a composite key carrying a compressed EC component is still decoded, since the component key factories accept either form, and continues to verify signatures as before - it simply re-encodes in the normalised form. The shared normalisation is org.bouncycastle.jcajce.provider.asymmetric.util.ECUtil.getUncompressedSubjectPublicKeyBytes.
• Composite ML-KEM encapsulation threw a NullPointerException, wrapped in an IllegalStateException out of KeyGenerator.generateKey(), when the SecureRandom it was given was null - which javax.crypto.KEM.newEncapsulator() documents as a request for the provider's default, and which KeyGenerator.init(spec, null) passes straight through. The three RSA-OAEP composites draw the traditional shared secret from that random directly, so they were the ones affected; the ECDH and X25519 / X448 composites escaped only because their component KeyPairGenerators default a random of their own. CompositeMLKEMEngine now defaults one through CryptoServicesRegistrar.getSecureRandom() on first use, as the composite KEM Cipher's wrap path already did, and as the KEM generators corrected earlier in this cycle now do. Related, the engine now also clears the ML-KEM component's shared secret alongside the traditional one on both the encapsulate and decapsulate paths - the copy handed back by getEncoded() was left in the heap - as section 3.5 of draft-ietf-lamps-pq-composite-kem requires.
• CompositePublicKey.getAlgorithm() and CompositePrivateKey.getAlgorithm() returned null for all twelve Composite ML-KEM (draft-ietf-lamps-pq-composite-kem) parameter sets. Both classes resolved the name through the composite signature index only, which holds the composite ML-DSA OIDs, so a composite KEM key pair - generated, parsed from a certificate, or read from PKCS#8 - reported no algorithm at all, and the standard JCA idiom of reconstructing a key with KeyFactory.getInstance(key.getAlgorithm()) raised a NullPointerException. The lookup now falls back to the composite KEM index, so the name returned is the one the provider registers the algorithm under (e.g. MLKEM768-X25519-SHA3-256), matching the composite ML-DSA behaviour. The same single-index assumption made the CompositePublicKey(SubjectPublicKeyInfo) and CompositePrivateKey(PrivateKeyInfo) constructors reject a composite KEM key with "unable to create CompositePublicKey from SubjectPublicKeyInfo"; they now dispatch to the composite KEM key factory for those OIDs. Keys obtained through KeyFactory or through BouncyCastleProvider.getPublicKey / getPrivateKey were unaffected and are unchanged (github #2404).
• The org.bouncycastle.jcajce.spec.KEMKDFSpec constructor stored a null otherInfo as given, so getOtherInfo() returned null, and three of the KDF branches KdfUtil.makeKeyBytes dispatches to - KMAC-128, KMAC-256 and SHAKE-256 - read the otherInfo length without a guard and threw NullPointerException out of the KEM operation, where the KDF2, KDF3 and HKDF branches tolerate a null through KDFParameters / HKDFParameters. The Builder of every spec in the package already mapped null to empty, so no provider path reached it, but the constructor is protected on a public class and KdfUtil is documented for callers building their own KEM integration; the deprecated KEMParameterSpec passes a null itself and escaped only because it also pins the KDF to null. The constructor now stores empty for a null, so getOtherInfo() never returns null, and a null and an explicitly empty otherInfo derive the same key.
• QR-UOV signature verification accepted a signature encoding that was not canonical, so the encoding of a signature was not unique even after the trailing-byte fix of github #2403. Each F_q element of the signature is stored in ceil(log2 q) bits, one more bit pattern than the field has elements: q itself is representable and is arithmetically congruent to zero, so an element written as q verified exactly as the same element written as zero would, and the bits padding the last element out to the byte boundary were never read at all. Every zero element of a signature therefore carried a second encoding, and for the q = 7 parameter sets roughly one element in seven is zero - a single qruov_5_q7_L10 signature measured 256 spare bits, so on the order of 2^256 distinct byte strings verified for the one message and key. Verification now rejects any element outside [0, q) and any set padding bit; a signature produced by this or by the reference implementation is unaffected, as the KAT vectors of every parameter set confirm. (github #2403)
• SNOVA signature verification ignored four bits inside the signature for any parameter set whose solution is an odd number of GF(16) nibbles - the SNOVA_24_5_5, SNOVA_25_8_3, SNOVA_29_6_5 and SNOVA_66_15_3 families, sixteen of the forty-four parameter sets. The last byte of the encoded solution carries a single nibble and the signer leaves the top four bits zero, but the decoder did not read them, so sixteen distinct byte strings verified for one signature. This is the same non-unique encoding github #2403 closed for bytes following the signature, applied inside it; the verifier now requires those bits to be zero. (github #2403)
• SnovaPrivateKeyParameters did not validate the length of the private key encoding handed to it - the only one of the five schemes of github #2403 that did not - and SnovaParameters.getPrivateKeyLength() reported the expanded ("ESK") length even for a parameter set whose private key is the seed pair. A private key encoding reaches this constructor straight from a PKCS#8 blob, so a wrong length went undetected: a seed-form key with extra bytes appended was accepted and signed under a different derived key, and a short expanded-form key sized the signer's decode buffer negatively, throwing NegativeArraySizeException out of generateSignature() rather than being reported at construction. Related, the signing retry loop could not terminate: the vinegar values are derived from a single-byte counter, so only 256 distinct linear systems can be tried, and an expanded-form private key that is not a real central map is singular for all of them - generateSignature() then span forever rather than failing. The length is now checked at construction, getPrivateKeyLength() reports the length that parameter set's private key actually has, and the retry loop gives up after its 256 attempts as MAYO's does.
• MayoSigner and MayoKeyPairGenerator did not clear several buffers holding secret key material that the MAYO reference implementation explicitly clears. Signing left the secret oil space O, the expanded L = (P1 + P1^t) * O + P2, and the M / VPV / Ox intermediates of the central map in place, having gone to the trouble of clearing eleven other buffers; key generation left the expanded seed, whose tail is the encoded oil space, and the P1 * O + P2 half of P; and the row-echelon step left the packed echelon form of the secret linear system and its pivot rows. Separately, if all 256 attempts at solving for the signature had given a rank-deficient system, signing emitted a signature built from the failed attempt's state instead of reporting the failure the reference returns, and AIMerSigner.generateSignature returned an empty array on failure, which a caller would hand on as though it were a signature. Both now throw.
• Five PQC signature schemes - MAYO, SNOVA, QR-UOV, SQIsign and AIMer - returned the NIST crypto_sign "sm" signed-message envelope from generateSignature() rather than the signature. That envelope is an artefact of the reference KAT harness, which records the message alongside the signature so a vector file can be self-contained; it is not part of any of the five specifications, and no other BC signer emits it (Falcon's KAT test rebuilds the equivalent envelope in the test, which is where it belongs). Two consequences followed, both reaching the JCA Signature services of every parameter set of the five schemes in BouncyCastlePQCProvider. First, since the message was appended to the signature, verification had to skip whatever followed the signature proper, and it did so by checking only that the buffer was long enough - so any number of trailing bytes could be added to a valid signature, or the appended message replaced with unrelated data, and it still verified. A signature encoding was therefore not unique: anyone holding one valid signature could produce unlimited distinct byte strings that all verified for the same message and key, which breaks any use that treats the signature bytes as an identifier, deduplicates on them, or records them as evidence. Second, the envelope propagated into everything built on the operator layer: because ContentSigner hands the signature straight into the structure being signed, every X.509 certificate, CRL, CMS SignedData and TLS CertificateVerify BC produced with one of these algorithms carried a verbatim copy of the signed data inside its own signature field - a self-signed MAYO-1 certificate came to 3567 bytes where the same certificate is now 2020 - which no other implementation can parse as a signature, and which in a detached CMS signature meant the "detached" signature carried the content. generateSignature() now returns the bare signature, and verifySignature() requires exactly the parameter set's signature length, so appended or truncated data is rejected rather than ignored. This is a behavioural change for signatures produced by an earlier release - MAYO and SNOVA from 1.84, QR-UOV, SQIsign and AIMer from 1.85 - which are no longer accepted in the envelope form they were emitted in; the signature bytes themselves are unchanged, so a stored value can be recovered by taking the leading signature-length bytes, or for AIMer, whose envelope was message || signature rather than signature || message, the trailing ones. The KAT tests now rebuild the envelope before comparing against the vector files, which continue to record it. Note that AIMer's verification had already been made length-exact during this cycle (see the entry below relating to github #2401), so of the five only its envelope remained (github #2403).
• The MLS implementation did not bind an X.509 credential to the LeafNode's signature_key. LeafNode.verify() checked a leaf's signature against the signature_key declared in the leaf itself, while the X.509 credential's certificate chain was stored but never parsed or checked, so the certificate's public key was never required to match signature_key (RFC 9420 sec. 5.3). A leaf could therefore carry one party's certificate while being signed by an unrelated key and still be accepted under that party's identity through KeyPackage.verify() and the Group leaf-validation path. LeafNode.verify() now requires the end-entity certificate's subject public key, in the cipher suite's signature encoding, to equal signature_key for an X.509 credential, and rejects the leaf otherwise - including an empty chain or a certificate whose key type does not match the cipher suite; certificate-chain and identity validation to a trust anchor remain the application's responsibility per RFC 9420 sec. 5.3.1. A public org.bouncycastle.mls.codec.Certificate(byte[]) constructor and a Credential.getCertificates() accessor are added so callers can build and inspect X.509 credentials. Basic credentials are unaffected.
• The SecureRandom supplied to org.bouncycastle.cms.jcajce.JceCMSContentEncryptorBuilder.setSecureRandom() did not drive the content IV / nonce for any algorithm other than RC2. EnvelopedDataHelper.generateParameters passed the caller's SecureRandom to the AlgorithmParameterGenerator only in the RC2_CBC branch; every other content-encryption algorithm - AES-CBC, AES-GCM, AES-CCM, Camellia, ARIA, SEED and the rest - reached pGen.generateParameters() on an uninitialised generator, so the IV / nonce was drawn from a default SecureRandom and setSecureRandom() was silently ignored (the builder's javadoc states that random is used for IV/nonce generation). The generator is now initialised with the supplied random on the general path as well, so a caller who provides a specific randomness source - for a controlled or FIPS-approved DRBG, say - has it honoured for the content IV / nonce. The session-key generation path was unaffected and already used the supplied random. Because the content IV / nonce now comes from the supplied SecureRandom, the org.bouncycastle.crypto.util JournalingSecureRandom / JournaledAlgorithm reproducible-encryption support records it in the transcript: a resumed session reproduces the IV / nonce by regenerating it from the replayed randomness - build the resuming encryptor from the content-algorithm OID - rather than by reusing the AlgorithmIdentifier captured from the first encryption, which no longer keeps the transcript aligned.
• The NTRU LPRime, NTRU+ and SMAUG-T KEM generators threw a NullPointerException when constructed with a null SecureRandom, where every other KEM generator - including NTRU LPRime's own SNTRU Prime counterpart in the same package - defaults one through CryptoServicesRegistrar.getSecureRandom(). This is reachable from the lightweight API directly, and from javax.crypto.KEM, whose newEncapsulator() documents a null random as a request for the provider's default.
• FrodoKEMEngine kept a single SHAKE instance in a field, so an engine reached concurrently produced wrong results. It is reached that way through org.bouncycastle.crypto.kems.FrodoKEMExtractor, which holds one engine for its lifetime: two threads extracting through one extractor interleaved the digest's absorb and squeeze phases, yielding shared secrets that silently did not match the sender's, or an IllegalStateException of "attempt to absorb while squeezing" from inside extractSecret. The digest is now built per call, as CMCEEngine's already was, which makes an extractor safe to share. Encapsulation was unaffected, since FrodoKEMGenerator builds an engine per call. Results for any single-threaded use are unchanged - the reference KAT vectors are byte-identical.
• The BCJSSE provider carried the TLS 1.2 coupling between the supported_groups extension and ECDSA over into TLS 1.3: an ECDSA signature scheme was treated as usable - offered in the signature_algorithms and signature_algorithms_cert extensions, and eligible when selecting the local credentials - only while the corresponding curve was among the named groups enabled for key exchange, both per context (a group unavailable for key agreement disabled the scheme outright) and per connection (the curve had to be in the supported_groups list about to be sent). RFC 8446 sec. 4.2.7 scopes supported_groups to key exchange only, with signature algorithms negotiated independently (sec. 4.2.3), so this incorrect restriction in TLS 1.3 has been removed. Ed25519, Ed448 and the RSA schemes were unaffected (as well as typical deployments using a default configuration for named groups).
• The bcmail module descriptor did not declare its javax.mail/javax.activation dependences, so a modular (module-path) consumer of the jar hit IllegalAccessError/module-resolution failures when the S/MIME classes touched the mail API. The descriptor now requires them optionally (requires static) under all four module names those libraries are known by - the automatic names mail and activation carried by the javax.mail:mail / javax.activation:activation artifacts, and the explicit names java.mail and java.activation carried by the newer com.sun.mail / com.sun.activation ones - a hard requires on any one name would break users of the others (github #2389).
• Four type-coercion helpers in the OER / IEEE 1609.2 (ITS) decoder tested the wrong type in the identity fast path that lets a getInstance() factory return an argument that is already of the target type. org.bouncycastle.oer.its.ieee1609dot2.basetypes.UINT32.getInstance and org.bouncycastle.oer.its.etsi102941.basetypes.Version.getInstance guarded on UINT8 - a sibling of UINT32 under UintBase, and unrelated to Version - so passing a UINT8 threw ClassCastException, while passing an actual UINT32 or Version missed the fast path and fell through to ASN1Integer.getInstance, which rejects them: neither factory accepted its own type. org.bouncycastle.oer.its.etsi103097.EtsiTs103097DataEncryptedUnicast.getInstance guarded on its sibling EtsiTs103097DataEncrypted and then cast to the unicast type, so an EtsiTs103097DataEncrypted threw ClassCastException. org.bouncycastle.oer.OEROptional.getObject(Class) called value.getClass().isInstance(type) with the arguments transposed, which is always false because the argument is a java.lang.Class, so the cast path was dead and every optional field was resolved reflectively, failing with IllegalStateException for a target type with no static getInstance. Each guard now names the type it returns, matching the sibling UINT8 / UINT16 / UINT64 and EtsiTs103097DataEncrypted factories (github #2373).
• DefaultAlgorithmNameFinder and DefaultSignatureNameFinder had no entries at all for the ShangMi algorithms, so an SM2 signature AlgorithmIdentifier that DefaultSignatureAlgorithmIdentifierFinder itself produces came back named only by its OID string - getAlgorithmName(GMObjectIdentifiers.sm2sign_with_sm3) returned "1.2.156.10197.1.501" and hasAlgorithmName returned false. Both finders now name sm2sign_with_sm3 as SM3WITHSM2 and sm2sign_with_sha256 as SHA256WITHSM2, and DefaultAlgorithmNameFinder additionally names the sm3 digest. All three resolve through the BC provider, as Signature and MessageDigest respectively. The remaining GM arc - the SM4 cipher modes, the sm2encrypt variants, and the SM1 / SM6 / SSF33 ciphers BC does not implement - is still unnamed (github #2377).
• The RFC 4998 evidence-record classes compared the digest AlgorithmIdentifier named by a time-stamp authority with the one their own DigestCalculator uses, and did so with AlgorithmIdentifier.equals(), which compares the encodings. A TSA that names SHA-256 with an explicit NULL parameters field - DigiCert among them - therefore failed against BC's own calculator, which names it with the parameters absent, and ERSArchiveTimeStampGenerator.generateArchiveTimeStamp rejected the response with "time stamp imprint for wrong algorithm". Both spellings name the same digest and RFC 5754 sec. 2 requires a receiver to accept either, while requiring that identifiers be generated with the parameters absent, which BC already does. The three affected comparisons - the two in ERSArchiveTimeStampGenerator and the digest check in ERSEvidenceRecord.renew - now use the new AlgorithmIdentifier.areEquivalent, which matches on the algorithm and treats an absent parameters field and NULL as the same, and the consistency check across an evidence record's archive time stamp chain uses it too. An identifier carrying an actual parameter structure is never equivalent to one carrying none (github #2379).
• EDIPartyName.toASN1Primitive emitted the nameAssigner and partyName DirectoryStrings without their context tags, so an EDIPartyName built through its public constructor could not be parsed back by EDIPartyName.getInstance, which correctly requires them. RFC 5280 sec. 4.2.1.6 tags both members [0] and [1], and those tags are explicit despite the module's IMPLICIT TAGS because DirectoryString is a CHOICE, which X.680 does not allow to be tagged implicitly - the decoder already had this right. The encoder now matches it. Note the type was added during the 1.85 cycle and GeneralName validates its ediPartyName alternative through it, so a GeneralName carrying an untagged ediPartyName - including one BC itself produced - is rejected where 1.84 passed it through unexamined; the untagged form is not read leniently (github #2380).
• RSASSA-PSS could not be used with a RIPEMD digest through the JCA API. Nothing registered the RIPEMD PSS signatures, so Signature.getInstance("RIPEMD160WITHRSAANDMGF1") raised NoSuchAlgorithmException, and the generic RSASSA-PSS route with an explicit PSSParameterSpec failed too: org.bouncycastle.jcajce.provider.util.DigestFactory.getDigest returned null for a RIPEMD name, and isSameDigest - an allow-list of the SHA families and MD5 - reported two identical RIPEMD names as different digests, so the spec was rejected with "digest algorithm for MGF should be the same as for PSS parameters". isSameDigest now answers true for equal names whatever the digest, which also covers Whirlpool, SM3, GOST3411 and anything else outside that allow-list; DigestFactory recognises RIPEMD128, RIPEMD160 and RIPEMD256 by name and OID; the three PSS signatures are registered with MGF1 over the same digest and a salt of the digest length; and DefaultSignatureAlgorithmIdentifierFinder gains the matching RIPEMD*WITHRSAANDMGF1 entries with their RSASSA-PSS-params, so the operator/JcaContentSignerBuilder path works as well. Note BC continues to require the PSS hash and the MGF1 hash to be the same, which RFC 8017 does not itself demand (github #2381).
• The opt-in key-size validation on CMS key-transport recipients (org.bouncycastle.cms.jcajce.JceKeyTransRecipient.setKeySizeValidation(true)) never ran for a message using RFC 9709 CEK derivation (id-alg-cek-hkdf-sha256): the branch that should have selected the actual content-encryption algorithm carried in the KDF AlgorithmIdentifier's parameters compared the encrypted-key byte array against the id-alg-cek-hkdf-sha256 object identifier - a comparison that is always false - so the check fell through to a key-size lookup on the outer KDF OID, which has no registered key size, and silently checked nothing. A key-transport EnvelopedData/AuthEnvelopedData whose transported (and HKDF-derived) content-encryption key did not match the key size of the advertised content-encryption algorithm was therefore accepted even with validation enabled. The recipient now dispatches on the content-encryption AlgorithmIdentifier's algorithm OID, so key-size validation of RFC 9709 messages checks the recovered key against the inner content-encryption algorithm. Messages with a matching key size, non-HKDF messages, and recipients that do not enable validation are unaffected.
• The OpenPGP v6 SEIPD (Symmetrically Encrypted Integrity Protected Data, version 2 / RFC 9580 sec. 5.13.2) packet parser read the AEAD chunk-size octet without bounding it. The chunk length is 2^(chunkSize + 6) bytes and the AEAD decryptor allocates a buffer of that size up front, so a crafted v6 encrypted message (reachable with only the recipient's public key) declaring chunkSize 24 forced a 1 GiB allocation on decrypt, and chunkSize 25 (where the int cast of the chunk length wraps negative) threw a NegativeArraySizeException -- a pre-authentication resource-exhaustion denial of service. This is the version 6 sibling of the version 5 AEADEncDataPacket issue fixed under CVE-2026-3505, which bounded that packet's chunk size at 16 but left the v6 SymmetricEncIntegrityPacket unbounded. SymmetricEncIntegrityPacket now rejects a chunk-size octet outside 0..16 (a 4 MiB chunk, matching the v5 ceiling) with a MalformedPacketException at parse, before any allocation.
• The Ed25519 KeyFactory in the JDK 11+ and JDK 15+ multi-release overlays (META-INF/versions/11 and /15) had drifted from the base implementation on the OpenSSH key-spec path: it used the no-passphrase OpenSSHPrivateKeyUtil.parsePrivateKeyBlob overload, so a passphrase-encrypted openssh-key-v1 Ed25519 private key that KeyFactory.getInstance("Ed25519", "BC").generatePrivate(new OpenSSHPrivateKeySpec(blob, passphrase)) decoded correctly on JDK 8 failed on JDK 11 and later; it also let a raw RuntimeException escape on a malformed blob and threw IllegalStateException (JDK 11) instead of InvalidKeySpecException for a non-Ed25519 key. The overlays now match the base implementation (passphrase support, parse errors wrapped as InvalidKeySpecException). Relatedly, the OpenSSH wrong-key-type and decode-failure paths across the RSA, DSA, EC and Ed25519 KeyFactorySpi implementations now consistently raise InvalidKeySpecException (previously a mix of IllegalArgumentException / IllegalStateException) and wrap a malformed OpenSSH public key, and an incorrect "public key is not RSA private key" message on the RSA private path was corrected. The multi-release test tasks now exercise the OpenSSH key specs against the multi-release jar.
• The Ant-built utility jars (bcutil-jdk15to18, bcutil-jdk14) duplicated org.bouncycastle.asn1.iana.IANAObjectIdentifiers, which since 1.85 (github #2176) lives only in core and is therefore already shipped in bcprov. The shared ant/bc+-build.xml build-util target still copied org/bouncycastle/asn1/iana/** into bcutil, so a project depending on both bcprov and bcutil (for example via bcpkix) failed an Android/R8 build with "Duplicate class org.bouncycastle.asn1.iana.IANAObjectIdentifiers found in modules bcprov-jdk15to18-1.85.jar and bcutil-jdk15to18-1.85.jar". The iana package is no longer bundled into bcutil (it remains in bcprov); the Gradle jdk18on jars were already correct (github #2356).
• org.bouncycastle.util.BigIntegers.intValueExact (and the byte/short/long variants) delegated to BigInteger.intValueExact from 1.85, a Java 8 method Android only provides from API level 33, so on earlier Android versions any code path using them - most visibly loading a PKCS12 keystore, whose iteration-count validation calls intValueExact - crashed with NoSuchMethodError. The range checks are open-coded again, as they were in 1.84 (github #2369).
• GOST R 34.10-94 signing (org.bouncycastle.crypto.signers.GOST3410Signer) raised the domain generator to the per-signature nonce k with a bare BigInteger.modPow, whose running time varies with the exponent. Recovering k from that timing yields the private key straight out of the signature equation s = k*m + x*r, so k is now randomised with a random multiple of q before it is raised, exactly as DSASigner already does with its own k. Since the domain parameter a has order q, raising it to a multiple of q gives 1 and the signature is unchanged - the RFC-style known-answer vectors in GOST3410Test still produce the same r and s. Those vectors drive signing from a FixedSecureRandom, so they now carry one further byte for the randomiser to consume, in the same way the DSA signing vectors already do.
• KCCMBlockCipher (DSTU7624-128/256/512 CCM mode) returned the input length rather than 0 from getUpdateOutputSize(int), but like CCMBlockCipher/KGCMBlockCipher it buffers all input until doFinal and produces no output on an update. Through the JCA layer this made the caller-supplied-buffer Cipher.update(input, inOff, inLen, output, outOff) reject a correctly sized output buffer with "javax.crypto.ShortBufferException: output buffer too short for input." when decrypting. getUpdateOutputSize now returns 0, matching the sibling CCM/KGCM modes (github #2354).
• J-PAKE raised values to exponents carrying private material with bare BigInteger.modPow calls, whose running time varies with the exponent: the private ephemerals x1 and x2 in round 1, x2*s and the negated form of it in round 2 and in the keying material - both of which carry the password - and the v behind each Schnorr zero-knowledge proof, which together with the published r would give up x. JPAKEParticipant itself notes that leaking x1 or x2 lets an attacker brute-force the password. All of these exponents are now randomised with a random multiple of q before they are raised. A multiple of q rather than of p-1 is sound here, and much cheaper since the exponents are the size of q: the generator is checked with g^q = 1 when the JPAKEPrimeOrderGroup is built, and each value received from the other participant is checked the same way by validateZeroKnowledgeProof before it is used as a base. JPAKEUtil.calculateA and JPAKEUtil.calculateKeyingMaterial gained overloads taking a SecureRandom, and there is a new JPAKEUtil.calculateGx taking q and a SecureRandom; the existing overloads still work, taking the default from CryptoServicesRegistrar. The three-argument calculateGx has no q to work with, so it blinds with a multiple of p-1 and is deprecated in favour of the new one. The three modPow calls in validateZeroKnowledgeProof are unchanged, since their exponents are all public. The elliptic-curve variant was already routing its private scalars through ECAlgorithms.multiplySecret and needed no change.
• The PKIX CertPathBuilder ("PKIX"/"RFC5280"/"RFC3280") matched candidate issuers by subject name only during its depth-first search, so a CertStore containing many self-issued certificates that share a single subject name and never chain to a trust anchor could be explored as a large number of partial paths before the build concluded no chain exists. The builder now bounds the total number of nodes visited per build; the limit is configurable via the org.bouncycastle.x509.max_cert_path_build_nodes system property (default 262144, far above any legitimate build) and, when exceeded, the build fails with a CertPathBuilderException naming the property. This is the builder-side companion to the existing org.bouncycastle.x509.max_policy_nodes bound.
• A group of parse and revocation-handling entry points let an unchecked runtime exception (NullPointerException, ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException, IllegalStateException or ArithmeticException) escape on empty, content-less or out-of-range input instead of the checked exception each entry point declares - the malformed input was rejected either way, but the leaked type could escape a documented throws contract. Each now fails with its declared type, and well-formed input is unaffected: org.bouncycastle.tsp.cms.CMSTimeStampedData (an empty or truncated stream; the fix also covers its org.bouncycastle.asn1.cms.MetaData and TimeStampDataUtil helpers) and org.bouncycastle.cms.CMSEnvelopedData (an EnvelopedData carrying no encryptedContent) now throw IOException / CMSException rather than NullPointerException; org.bouncycastle.tsp.TimeStampToken rejects a token whose SignerInfo carries no signed attributes with TSPValidationException rather than NullPointerException; org.bouncycastle.cert.cmp.GeneralPKIMessage, org.bouncycastle.est.CSRAttributesResponse, org.bouncycastle.cmc.SimplePKIResponse, org.bouncycastle.openssl.X509TrustedCertificateBlock, org.bouncycastle.tsp.TimeStampRequest, org.bouncycastle.tsp.TimeStampResponse, org.bouncycastle.pkcs.PKCS12PfxPdu and org.bouncycastle.pkcs.PKCS8EncryptedPrivateKeyInfo reject empty / no-content / truncated input with their declared CertIOException / IOException / PKCSIOException rather than a leaked NullPointerException, and org.bouncycastle.cert.crmf.CertificateRequestMessage.hasSigningKeyProofOfPossessionWithPKMAC answers false for an absent or non-signing-key proof-of-possession rather than throwing NullPointerException; org.bouncycastle.crypto.util.OpenSSHPrivateKeyUtil.parsePrivateKeyBlob and org.bouncycastle.math.ec.ECCurve.decodePoint reject an empty (or null) blob / point encoding with IllegalArgumentException rather than ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException, closing the point-decode path reached by every untrusted-point consumer (EC key parsing, ECDH/ECIES, TLS); and the PKIX revocation code no longer leaks a runtime exception on attacker-controlled CRL/OCSP fields - PKIXCertPathReviewer and X509RevocationChecker bound an out-of-range CRLReason code against their fixed reason table (reporting "unknown" instead of ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException / ArithmeticException), RFC3280CertPathUtilities tolerates an absent reasons mask on a CRL distribution point, and ProvOcspRevocationChecker tolerates an OCSP response with no nonce extension.
