Proposed Changes

This pull request updates the deprecated key loading logic in the service/internal/security/standard_crypto.go file to ensure the correct cryptographic algorithm is set for ECC keys. The main change is a fix to the algorithm identifier used when loading ECC keys.

Key management fix:

  • In the loadDeprecatedKeys function, the Algorithm field for ECC keys is now correctly set to AlgorithmECP256R1 instead of the incorrect AlgorithmRSA2048, ensuring proper identification and handling of ECC keys.

Checklist

  • I have added or updated unit tests
  • I have added or updated integration tests (if appropriate)
  • I have added or updated documentation

Summary of Changes

Hello @pflynn-virtru, I'm Gemini Code Assist1! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request addresses a critical issue in the key loading logic by updating a deprecated function to correctly identify Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC) keys. The change ensures that the appropriate algorithm identifier is set for ECC keys, which is crucial for their proper functioning and security, thereby preventing potential cryptographic misconfigurations.

Highlights

  • ECC Key Loading Fix: Corrected a bug in the loadDeprecatedKeys function where ECC keys were incorrectly assigned the AlgorithmRSA2048 identifier. This has been updated to the proper AlgorithmECP256R1.
  • Improved Key Identification: Ensures that Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC) keys are now correctly identified and handled, preventing potential misconfigurations or failures related to their cryptographic algorithm.

Code Review

This pull request correctly fixes a critical bug in the deprecated key loading logic where ECC keys were being assigned an incorrect RSA algorithm identifier. The change to use AlgorithmECP256R1 is appropriate. To improve the robustness of the code and prevent future regressions, I've suggested adding a unit test to cover this deprecated key loading path.
