convert openSSH rsa key to javax.crypto.Cipher compatible format
Is there a way to programmatically convert the Jsch generated SSH RSA-keys to a format javax.crypto.Cipher can use for encryption? I have mostly seen answers similar to this:
openssl pkcs8 -topk8 -inform PEM -outform DER -in private_key_file -nocrypt > pkcs8_key
But I don't have acces to openSSL or shell commands. BTW: I'm only using JDK6.
Thanks to @erickson for his help I can convert the Public Key from RFC4716 to a Java public key using the exponent and the modulus as BigInteger types passed to a KeyFactory with the RSAPublicKeySpec. His solution is below.
Now I am trying to convert the private key. Here's an example privateJsch.key generated using writePrivateKey(str filename):
-----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY-----

base64 decoding the key portion yields the following in hex broken out into ASN.1 PKCS#1 components (see RFC3447) for this example only, others will follow pattern with different numbers of bytes:
