Sing text with certificate from Firefox keystore

Hi,
I need to sign a text with a certificate stored in Firefox keystore using an applet (online signature). Has someone achieved this before?
Thanks in advance.

I cannot download software or export secure Certificate from Firefox, but can with Internet Explorer. This is crucial for meeting a deadline with an international patent Filing Today. Pls help - 555-555-5555. Sheldon

I tried to download an e-filing client software from the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) website [http://www.wipo.int/pct-safe/en/download/download_client.htm] using Firefox. Clicking the link to download yielded no activity. I eventually tried the same link in internet explorer and it worked. This occurred last week. I have a deadline to complete an international patent filing today; and in order to do so online, I had to request a Secure Digital ID from WIPO. It was approved and received early this morning (Central European Time Zone); and the accompanying guidelines suggested that I use the same computer and browser to retrieve the ID. This meant that since I use Firefox as my default browser my request was also made and had to be retrieved in Firefox. Following the WIPO support instructions I ran into exactly the same problem of inactivity when trying to "Backup" my newly installed ID certificate per WIPO instruction, so that it may be imported into the e-filing software. Please help as soon as you can as my patent deadline is merely hours away. Please also see a response from the WIPO helpdesk below:
Dear User,
we hereby provide the following solution / answer to your request:
Subject: Certificates (use of and different types)/26708 Answer from PCT-SAFE Help Desk:
Unfortunately, apart from revoking your new certificate and then re-enrolling using Internet Explorer, I do not see many options.
We cannot do support for external software, like Firefox, but I had a quick glance at Mozilla's support side and it seems that you might be able to resolve your problem by starting Firefox in safe mode, and/or disabling all your Firefox extensions. I have to stress the fact that this is not a procedure tested and approved by the PCT-SAFE team.
As this is an extremely time-sensitive issue please also contact me by phone so that we can work through the solution in real-time. I can be reached at 555-555-555 - Sheldon

== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== Attempting to download from a secure server

Just to follow up on my findings. My last issue regarding the digital certificate was not at the time of initial download into Firefox, but my application required that I backup the certificate into a folder which can then be accessed to sign a submission generated by a third-party Client software.
After finally steering away from the digital signing route by opting for a non digital filing of my project, I later revisited the Firefox certificates list only to find that the 'Backup' button still didn't work or respond in any way whatsoever; however since I only had a single certificate on my list... I threw my hand up in the air and tried the 'Backup All' button... guess what - that worked!! My browser then navigated to a file browser which allowed me to save the certificate to a folder of my choice. Of course this was after the fact as my deadline had already passed and and I had the Administrator who initially granted my secure ID revoke it once I was blocked from downloading it by Firefox.
Just an update/FYI for y'all... But I'm not sure if this type of anomoly is due to a glitch on my computer or a glitch on the browser - but it certainly did catch me off-guard during a deadline.

Connect to Secure web service with certificate from SAP EP

Hi Experts,
Here is the current situation:
1. Our business requirement is to connect 3rd party RESTful web service which requires secure connection with private client certificate attached
2. I've tested in my Java test application and successfully attached private certificate to HttpsURLConection request to the web service and made a connection. No problem at all.
KeyStore keyStore = KeyStore.getInstance("PKCS12");
InputStream inputStream = new FileInputStream("privateKeyCert.p12");
keyStore.load(inputStream, "myPassword".toCharArray());
KeyManagerFactory keyManagerFactory = KeyManagerFactory.getInstance(KeyManagerFactory.getDefaultAlgorithm());
keyManagerFactory.init(keyStore, "myPassword".toCharArray());
KeyManager[] kms = keyManagerFactory.getKeyManagers();
SSLContext sslContext = SSLContext.getInstance("SSL");
sslContext.init(kms, null, new SecureRandom());
SSLSocketFactory sockFact = sslContext.getSocketFactory();
URL url = new URL("https://www.thirdpartywebservice.com/testroot/");
HttpsURLConnection conn = (HttpsURLConnection) url.openConnection();
conn.setSSLSocketFactory(sockFact);
conn.setRequestMethod("POST");
conn.setDoOutput(true);
conn.setDoInput(true);
conn.setUseCaches(false);
conn.setDefaultUseCaches (false);
conn.setRequestProperty("Content-Type", "text/xml");
3. Next, I tried to apply my Java application to SAP EP NetWeaver, and found that I have to use SecureConnectionFactory:
https://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70ehp1/helpdata/en/e2/71c83edf72e16be10000000a114084/content.htm
4. So, I modified my Java code for SAP EP:
KeyStore keyStore = KeyStore.getInstance("PKCS12");
InputStream inputStream = this.getClass().getClassLoader().getResourceAsStream("privateKeyCert.p12");
keyStore.load(inputStream, "myPassword".toCharArray());
SecureConnectionFactory scFactory = new SecureConnectionFactory(keyStore);
HttpURLConnection conn = scFactory.createURLConnection("https://www.thirdpartywebservice.com/testroot/");
conn.setRequestMethod("POST");
conn.setDoOutput(true);
conn.setDoInput(true);
conn.setUseCaches(false);
conn.setDefaultUseCaches (false);
conn.setRequestProperty("Content-Type", "text/xml");
And I'm facing the following error message:
Exception: java.security.UnrecoverableKeyException: ja
va.security.GeneralSecurityException: Unable to decrypt private key: javax.crypto.BadPaddingException: Invalid PKCS#5 padding length: 253
Could you please help me what this error message means?
Do you think do I need to to do some other configuration to make connection to web service with client certificate?
This is our first approach. Please help...
Thank you in advance.

SunJSSE implement SSL server CertificateRequest in a strict mode, if client failed to find a proper certificate corresponding the server request, it does not guess what's the proper certificate and send to the server. In your case, because there is no intermediate certificate in the client context, so there is no way to make the decision which certificate would be acceptable by server, so client does not send any cert to server. That's why you got a handshaking error.
I guess your client key store does not contains a full certificate path from the client end-entity certificate to the root CA. Please import the full certificate path into the key store.
BTW, these approaches should work, but I found no reason why one does not adopt #1:
1. import the full certification path of client certificate into client key store.
2. as a workaround, configure the server to send a list including the intermediate certificates;
3. as a workaround, you will have to customize the client KeyManager if you don't want to or are not able to configure the server to send a list including the intermediate certificates.

I have to paste/special/text when copying from Firefox and pasting in Word or Excel

When copying data from a table on IE, I just have to paste (ctrl-v), and the data is pasted into appropriate separate cells.
In Firefox, I have to "paste special" and click "text" to separate the fields. Otherwise, all the data is pasted into a single cell or in the case of Word, one paragraph.
Is there a setting that can be designated to allow paste as in IE or as within Word or Excel?

The [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/1852/ Dafizilla Table2Clipboard] extension should help with this.

Problem copying text with graphs from web pages

I can't copy text+graph from webpages. Copying into Pages or Microsoft Word for Mac, the text is copied the graphs are not. (With Firefox, I can't even copy text!)
I have Parallels, and on the Microsoft side I have no problem copying both text and graphs simultaneously.
Could you, please, advice

Thanks.It works-sort of. I can copy into TextEdit without problems. This is probably the solution by itself because I can save it. Copying into Words (from TextEdit) didn't work. Copying into Pages partially works: the graphs are reproduced but the layout comes out funny.
Thank you

A text with strings from query - how???

There is on-demand process, that return text to text-area element.
DECLARE
LIST_OF_APP varchar2(32000) := '';
BEGIN
BEGIN
FOR i IN (SELECT TITLE, TIMEOFCHECK FROM ACTIVEWINDOWSOFUSERS WHERE NUMBEROFPROCCESS=:STATE_SR AND MYUSER=:USERID_SR ) loop
LIST_OF_APP := LIST_OF_APP||~??????~ ||i.TITLE ||', '|| i.TIMEOFCHECK;
END LOOP;
exception when no_data_found then null;
END;
htp.prn(LIST_OF_APP);
end;
But my text return to me as ONE ROW, and I don't know - how to split it into different rows. I know ~empsep~, ~colsep~ - but have no idea about STRING SEP!
I've try `~rowsep~` - but it doesn't work.
Help me. Please,please,please...

<script type="text/javascript">
function application_in_detail(state,uid){
var get = new htmldb_Get(null,&APP_ID.,'APPLICATION_PROCESS=GetApplications',0);
get.add('STATE_SR',state);
get.add('USERID_SR',uid);
gReturn = get.get();
if(gReturn)
{//document.write(gReturn);
var resp=gReturn.split('mysep');
var resText='';
for (i=0; i < resp.length; i++)
{resText=resText+resp[i]+CHR(13)}
html_GetElement('TITLES').value=resText; }
get=null;
</script>
It falls with "error on the page"..
I believe that I am close to end - but what have I to put on th e place CHR(13)???

How to exctract/backup a client certificate from Firefox for Android similar to question #1000240 but for the latest Firefox Beta for Android?

As in #1000240 and in #1032181, I've installed a StartSSL login certificate in my Firefox for Android and having a problem with extracting/backuping it to use with another device/browser.
I'm using the latest Firefox Beta for Android (35.0) at present; the Android version is 4.1.2, my phone model is Sony LT26i (Xperia S), so neither of the aforementioned questions asked at the Mozilla Support website do not contain any solution to the given problem.
Any chance to recover the certificate?
P. S. I haven't rooted my device; if getting a root is the only possible way to recover the certificate, I may consider doing so.

You can try https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/android/addon/copy-profile/ If that does not retrieve the file then see below.
If you know the name and path of the file you can get it using run-as function of adb. See http://stackoverflow.com/questions/18471780/android-adb-retrieve-database-using-run-as
If you end up down here you'll need root to be able to navigate the file system. I don't know the file name, though it is likely in your profile folder which can be determined by visiting about:cache in the Firefox address bar. It will be similar to /data/data/org.mozilla.firefox_beta/files/mozilla/$RANDOM.default/

1.1 Intel-Mac: Disappearing text after switching from Firefox

I have LR and Firefox open. I switch to Firefox to use the web for 10-15 mins.
When I switch back to LR all of the text on the interface is gone.
A restart of the app fixes it..

I have seen his sort of thing on rare occasion with some of the early 1.1s. Could never pin it to anything and a restart always fixed it. Somethimes I would go off do something else and then come back to, as you say, no text. I probably should have reported it anyhow, now that smeone else is seeing this.

After sing in with VPN from iphone, it had been disconnected unexpeted

Hi folks,
Anyone had experience the VPN been disconnected after sign in with only few seconds ?
What should I suggest our enterprice MIS to change with our Cisco VPN system ?
Many thanks

If the iPhone changes its network (3G / Edge / WiFi) then I noticed that it will loose its VPN connectivity. If you're in an area where, say, 3G is patchy; you might want to turn off 3G to ensure that you stick with Edge throughout the session. Better still, sit on top of your router and use WiFi.
Now all I have to work out is "what do I need VPN for" given that I can't run the activeX required to actually do any work! Any suggestions (other than bragging rights in the pub ... to an incredibly small and geeky audience)?

Signing with p12 certificate from client

Hy there
Our client provided us with a p12 format certificate and a password for signing AIR Applications.
When I tried to sign the application in question with the certificate I got the following Error:
Unable to build a valid certificate chain for the signer.
What would google do in this situation?
According to http://www.globalsign.com/support/root-certificate/osroot.php I did the following:
Install the certificate in Internetexplorer
Install the GlobalSign ObjectSign CA in Firefox
Export a new p12 certificate from firefox
Sign the application again with the new p12 certificate
Still getting the same error!
Install the new p12 certificate in Internetexplorer
Again exporting the cert in Firefox
and so on...
No matter what I tried I still got the same error. I am now wondering whether our client needs to sign the application, but this does not seem to make sense since I have a p12 certificate and a password...
I really would appreciate any help on this matter.
Kind regards

According to tzengs suggestion I tried to export the certificate again from firefox using "backup all" instead of "backup" with no effect.
One thing which I am still not sure of:
Can my client give me a p12 certificate which I can use as it is to sign my application using the provided password or do I have to process this certificate first?
Depending on the answer to this question I need to take different action:
YES: I need to tell my client to export the certificate in a different manner in order to "create the complete chain"
NO: The certificate from my client is fine but I still need to figure out how to change the certificate so that I don't get the error.
Thanks for your help.

How to configure Java Plug-In to use Firefox keystore

Does any one know how to configure Java Plugin 1.5.0 to use the Firefox kesystore either in Windows or in Linux environments?
I installed and configured 'JSS' based on the information available at http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/guide/deployment/deployment-guide/keystores .html.
but still the plugin is not using the keys from Firefox keystore.
I noticed the following messages in Java Console.
security: Accessing keys and certificate in Mozilla user profile: null
security: JSS is not configured
Thanks

I was having this same issue prior to installing the JSS on my machine.
I did not compile my own version of the code, but rather I took the jss34.jar file and put it in a 'jss' directory.
I also copied the jss3.dll and jss3.lib files into the directory where Firefox was installed.
That was all I had to do to get JSS to work for Firefox 1.0.4 and Mozilla 1.7.8.
If that still does not work for you, you always have the option to use the Java Plugin keystore instead of using the browser cache to authenticate certificates.
You can do that by doing the following on the Java Control Panel:
1. Click the 'Certificates' button on the Security tab
2. Import the certificate as a 'User' certificate (Make sure you select the appropriate certificate type)
3. Disable the 'Use certificates and keys in browser keystore' option under the 'Security' section of the 'Advanced' tab.
I hope that helps.
