Hi everyone,
We are in a dispute with P6R regarding the Key Format Type returned in the Digest Attribute (for KMIP 1.4).
Kryptus Server returns the Key Format Type as Transparent (this was also our behavior in the last year Interop):
<Attribute>
<AttributeName type =" TextStrin g " value =" Digest " />
<AttributeValue>
<HashingAlgorithm type =" Enumer ation " value =" SHA_256 " />
<DigestValue type =" ByteString "
value =" 0533e51dd2ead671fa9eb9 cd08baa7868fe94b42d579b4f0d3cf dacaefbe8688 " />
<KeyFormatType type =" Enumerati on " value =" TransparentRSAPriva teKey " />
</AttributeValue>
</Attribute>
However, P6R expects the Key Format Type to be exactly like the in the test case:
<Attribute> <AttributeName type="TextString" value="Digest"/> <AttributeValue> <HashingAlgorithm type="Enumeration" value="SHA_256"/> <DigestValue type="ByteString" value="8eb422ae2b006a05d3c8a542a28536735241b6dc1c37926bc8007bd6220d9230"/> <KeyFormatType type="Enumeration" value="PKCS_1"/> </AttributeValue> </Attribute>
Kryptus' understanding is that the Key Format may vary from server to server, as stated in the "KMIP Protocol Profiles 1.4" document, section 4.1.1 (variable items):
http://docs.oasis-open.org/kmip/profiles/v1.4/os/kmip-profiles-v1.4-os.html#_Toc491431423
P6R thinks different and has informed us that this year the tests were expected to check for the Key Format Type. Can you folks please tell me when this was decided? And if this is indeed the expected behavior, why the profiles document was not updated?
Thank you,
