wolfCrypt JNI/JCE 1.7.0 is now available for download! This release contains a number of bug fixes, changes and new features to help better support usage from applications and 3rd party frameworks that consume wolfJCE internally.
wolfCrypt JNI/JCE allows for easy use of the native wolfCrypt cryptography library from Java. The thin JNI wrapper can be used for direct JNI calls into native wolfCrypt, or the JCE provider (wolfJCE) can be registered as a Java Security provider for seamless integration underneath the Java Cryptography API. wolfCrypt JNI/JCE can also support running on top of wolfCrypt FIPS 140-2 and 140-3 validated modules.
Changes in this release are summarized below, but please see ChangeLog.md for a full list. Watch for individual future blogs on some of these topics as well for a more in depth description.

New JCE Functionality:

• Addition of a new WolfSSLKeyStore (WKS) KeyStore implementation to help conform to FIPS 140-2 / 140-3 compliant KeyStore use

JNI and JCE Changes:

• Build compatibility has been fixed with older Java versions that do not support BigInteger.longValueExact()

• Detection of native RSA minimum key size (RSA_MIN_SIZE), and exposure of this minimum to Java via Rsa.RSA_MIN_SIZE

• Fixes to pointer use when calling the native X509CheckPrivateKey() API

Example Changes:

• Addition of a new Android Studio example IDE project, located under the “IDE/Android” directory. This can be useful as an example to see how CMakeLists.txt should be structured to build native wolfSSL and wolfCrypt JNI/JCE.

Testing Changes:

• Facebook Infer is now run on all GitHub pull requests using GitHub Actions

• Android Gradle builds are now tested on all GitHub pull requests using GitHub Actions
