Description

Public key authentication with ECDSA keys is currently rejected because Signature factories only honors RSA or DSS based public key lookup. So registering the corresponding actories has no effect: [1].

private void initSignatures() {
    setSignatureFactories(Arrays.<NamedFactory<Signature>> asList(
        new SignatureDSA.Factory(),
        new SignatureRSA.Factory(),
        new SignatureECDSA.NISTP256Factory(),
        new SignatureECDSA.NISTP384Factory(),
        new SignatureECDSA.NISTP521Factory()));
 }
