I am getting a Radix out of range exception on performing decryption
- by user3672391
I am generating a keypair and converting one of the same into string which later is inserted into the database using the following code:
KeyPairGenerator keyGen = KeyPairGenerator.getInstance("RSA");
keyGen.initialize(2048);
KeyPair generatedKeyPair = keyGen.genKeyPair();
PublicKey pubkey = generatedKeyPair.getPublic();
PrivateKey prvkey = generatedKeyPair.getPrivate();
System.out.println("My Public Key>>>>>>>>>>>"+pubkey);
System.out.println("My Private Key>>>>>>>>>>>"+prvkey);
String keyAsString = new BigInteger(prvkey.getEncoded()).toString(64);
I then retrieve the string from the database and convert it back to the original key using the following code (where rst is my ResultSet):
String keyAsString = rst.getString("privateKey").toString();
byte[] bytes = new BigInteger(keyAsString, 64).toByteArray();
//byte k[] = "HignDlPs".getBytes();
PKCS8EncodedKeySpec encodedKeySpec = new PKCS8EncodedKeySpec(bytes);
KeyFactory rsaKeyFac = KeyFactory.getInstance("RSA");
PrivateKey privKey = rsaKeyFac.generatePrivate(encodedKeySpec);
On using the privKey for RSA decryption, I get the following exception
java.lang.NumberFormatException: Radix out of range

Please guide.
