CertificateParsingException

  • CertificateParsingException signals an issue when a certificate's DER encoding is invalid or contains unsupported features.

  • This exception is part of the javax.security.cert package, retained for compatibility but new applications should utilize java.security.cert instead.

  • It provides two constructors: one with no detail message and another accepting a message describing the specific exception.

public class CertificateParsingException extends CertificateException

Certificate Parsing Exception. This is thrown whenever invalid DER encoded certificate is parsed or unsupported DER features are found in the Certificate.

Note: The classes in the package javax.security.cert exist for compatibility with earlier versions of the Java Secure Sockets Extension (JSSE). New applications should instead use the standard Java SE certificate classes located in java.security.cert.
