Missing cipher in eclipse installer [message #1832823] Fri, 25 September 2020 12:06 Go to next message

My setup installs plugins from a server that offers only TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256 (ecdh_x25519) and TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_256_GCM_SHA384 (ecdh_x25519) as ciphers for SSL. When running the latest eclipse installer the setup fails with an SSL handshake error when accessing this server (tested on macos Catalina, Kubuntu 20.04, and Win10). When I switch to a separately installed JRE in eclipse-inst.ini installation works.

When running the installer with -Djavax.net.debug=ssl:handshake:verbose I get some indication that curve25519 is not supported:
javax.net.ssl|DEBUG|01|main|2020-09-25 09:35:34.234 EDT|null:-1|jdk.tls.keyLimits: entry = AES/GCM/NoPadding KeyUpdate 2^37. AES/GCM/NOPADDING:KEYUPDATE = 137438953472
javax.net.ssl|WARNING|01|main|2020-09-25 09:35:34.444 EDT|null:-1|Signature algorithm, ed25519, is not supported by the underlying providers

Could it be that something is missing from the minimal JRE in the installer that should be there?

Yes, this bug was opened:

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=567050

I've just done an Oomph nightly build that includes the Java 15.0.1 JRE with the jdk.crypto.ec in the minimal version.

https://download.eclipse.org/justj/?file=oomph/products/latest

All the installers (with and without a JRE) are also available here:

https://wiki.eclipse.org/Eclipse_Installer

The nightly ones have the new JRE version; the milestone ones will have that too, after the first milestone build for 2020-09 M1 next month.

It would be great if you could test the new nightly version with a JRE and report any problems in Bug 567050.
