Provides a reference implementation of SSLv3.0 Library for MIDP. The code is modified version of KSSL from Sun Labs.
Supports abbreviated SSL handshakes.
Does not support SSL client authentication. This is because purpose of HTTPS for MIDP is to provide the wireless device with end-to-end confidentiality. The authentication must be done at the application level, which is what nearly all consumer applications do.
Only supports the SSL_RSA_WITH_RC4_128_SHA, SSL_RSA_WITH_RC4_128_MD5, and SSL_RSA_EXPORT_WITH_RC4_40_MD5 cipher suites. All known HTTPS servers support these suites.
Only Supports RSA X.509 certificates, these are the defacto standard. KSSL supports version 1, 2, and 3 X.509 certificates signed using RSA with either SHA-1, MD5 and MD2. For security reasons only version 3 certificates are allowed to be chained. While the key usage extension is supported, the name constraints extension is not.
