Hash algorithm through the JCA

`MessageDigest.getInstance()`. MD5 and SHA-1 are reported as already broken; SHA-256 is reported as a reduced margin rather than a defect.

This is already unsafe today, with no quantum computer involved. SHAttered and subsequent work produced practical collisions; NIST withdrew SHA-1 in 2030 guidance and it is already unacceptable for signatures.

What to do. SHA-256 as the floor, SHA-384 where the digest protects something that must remain verifiable for decades.

Cipher transformation named away from the call

A JCA transformation string - `algorithm/mode/padding` - written somewhere other than a `getInstance()` argument, which is how a codebase that centralises its cryptography passes the choice to a helper. The string is unambiguous wherever it appears: nothing but a transformation is spelled that way.

This names an encryption method as text, and passes it to code elsewhere that does the work. It is the same choice, made in a different place.

What to do. The same migration applies as to the call that consumes it. Move the constant and the call together, so the inventory keeps naming the algorithm after the change.

X.509 certificate

A PEM certificate. The subject public-key algorithm and key size are read from the SubjectPublicKeyInfo structure, and the not-after date is reported so certificates that outlive the migration window are visible.

This is a digital identity document. Its expiry date matters: one valid for many years locks in today's algorithms for that long.

What to do. Shorten certificate lifetimes so re-issuing with a post-quantum key is routine.

TLS Quantum-vulnerable Recorded traffic 19 places See details

TLS context created in code

`SSLContext.getInstance()`. The protocol version is reported; the key exchange it negotiates is classical in every TLS 1.2 and 1.3 cipher suite available today.

A quantum computer of sufficient size breaks this completely. It has to be replaced, not tuned. Every TLS cipher suite in general use negotiates a classical key exchange, so a recorded session is decryptable once that exchange falls.

What to do. Keep TLS 1.3, and track the hybrid key-exchange groups as they reach the JDK. TLS is where harvest-now-decrypt-later exposure is largest.

Private key committed to the repository

A PEM private-key block. The header names the algorithm where the format is the legacy one; for PKCS#8 the algorithm OID is read out of the DER. A private key in version control is a present-day incident before it is a quantum question.

A secret key is stored in this repository's files. Anyone who can read the repository can use it. This needs attention today, regardless of quantum computers.

What to do. Revoke and rotate the key, then keep key material out of the repository. Record the algorithm in the inventory.

Kerberos Reduced margin 9 places See details

Kerberos or SPNEGO authentication

`javax.security.auth.kerberos` or a GSS-API call. Kerberos itself is symmetric and survives Shor; its PKINIT certificate flow is public-key and does not. The encryption types configured for the realm decide whether it is also a present-day concern.

A quantum computer weakens this but does not break it. Increasing the key or digest size restores the margin. Kerberos is symmetric at its core, so Shor does not break it. The surrounding PKINIT certificate flow is public-key and does fall.

What to do. Restrict the realm to AES encryption types, and treat PKINIT certificates as part of the public-key migration.

AES Reduced margin 6 places See details

Classical public-key cipher through the JCA

`Cipher.getInstance()` with a transformation whose algorithm component is a public-key or legacy symmetric cipher. The transformation string is parsed into algorithm, mode and padding, so `RSA/ECB/PKCS1Padding` is separated from `RSA/ECB/OAEPWithSHA-256AndMGF1Padding`.

A quantum computer weakens this but does not break it. Increasing the key or digest size restores the margin. Grover's algorithm halves the effective strength; the parameter, not the design, is the problem. The key size was not visible at this call site, so the weaker case is assumed.

What to do. For RSA encryption, move to ML-KEM-768 and keep RSA-OAEP only as the classical half of a hybrid during transition.

Key material constructed for a named algorithm

`new SecretKeySpec(bytes, "AES")` and the other key-spec constructors name the algorithm as an argument rather than through `getInstance()`.

Key store holding classical key material

Non-cryptographic randomness near key material

`new Random()` or `Math.random()` in a file that also imports `java.security`, `javax.crypto` or BouncyCastle. `java.util.Random` is a linear congruential generator and its output is predictable from a handful of samples. The import check is what keeps this from firing on every retry jitter and test fixture in the tree.

Part of this code uses a predictable source of random numbers. If any key comes from it, that key can be guessed today, with no quantum computer needed.

What to do. `java.security.SecureRandom`. This is a classical defect, not a quantum one, and it is worth fixing first.

Private key committed to the repository

A PEM private-key block. The header names the algorithm where the format is the legacy one; for PKCS#8 the algorithm OID is read out of the DER. A private key in version control is a present-day incident before it is a quantum question.

Key material constructed for a named algorithm

`new SecretKeySpec(bytes, "AES")` and the other key-spec constructors name the algorithm as an argument rather than through `getInstance()`. Code that wraps raw bytes into a key this way often never calls `getInstance()` at all, so the algorithm is invisible to a scan that only looks at the factories.

This wraps raw bytes into a key for a named algorithm. It is part of the same migration as whatever uses that key.

What to do. Wherever this key is used, the same migration applies as to the call that consumes it. Trace it to the operation and treat the two together.

CSPRNG Quantum-safe 6 places See details

Random number generation

`crypto.randomBytes()`, `randomUUID()` or `getRandomValues()`. A platform CSPRNG is not a quantum exposure; it is recorded because an inventory that omits the randomness source is incomplete. `Math.random()` is a separate, present-day defect.

This is where the software gets its random numbers. Quantum computers do not weaken it.

What to do. No action.

2. js/apps/admin-ui/src/components/dynamic/ClaimDisplayComponent.tsx:29 const generateId = () => crypto.randomUUID();

Argon2 Quantum-safe 4 places See details

Password hashing or key derivation

A `SecretKeyFactory` for PBKDF2, or a BouncyCastle password KDF. Not a quantum exposure, and part of a complete inventory.

This is how passwords are stored. Quantum computers do not meaningfully weaken it.

What to do. PBKDF2 needs a high iteration count. Argon2 through BouncyCastle is stronger.

Classical public-key cipher through the JCA

`Cipher.getInstance()` with a transformation whose algorithm component is a public-key or legacy symmetric cipher. The transformation string is parsed into algorithm, mode and padding, so `RSA/ECB/PKCS1Padding` is separated from `RSA/ECB/OAEPWithSHA-256AndMGF1Padding`.

No known quantum attack changes how strong this is. A keyed MAC is not affected by Shor and only marginally by Grover.

What to do. For RSA encryption, move to ML-KEM-768 and keep RSA-OAEP only as the classical half of a hybrid during transition.

JOSE algorithm declared in configuration

An `alg` value in JSON or YAML. `none` is reported as a critical defect; HS* is an HMAC and is not quantum-vulnerable; RS*, PS*, ES* and EdDSA are.

No known quantum attack changes how strong this is. A keyed MAC is not affected by Shor and only marginally by Grover.

What to do. No standardised post-quantum JOSE algorithm exists yet. Keep token lifetimes short.
