Local fix

Problem summary

  • JDK 8 is building the wrong certificate chain. It seems to rely
    on the Subject attribute for certificate
    validation instead of using Authority Key Identifier (AKI) and
    Subject Key Identifier (SKI) to build
    the certificate path. The problem does not happen with JDK 7.
    

Problem conclusion

  • Added PKCS12 Keystore Issuer Subject key ID checking to cert
    chain processing.
