Is KeyStore thread safe?

807603Jan 29 2008 — edited Jan 30 2008

Hi all,

My class has KeyStore instance as static field.

When KeyStore#getKey(String alias, char[] password) mthod is called with right alias and password on multi-thread environment, normaly I can get Key object successfully.
But rarely following UnrecoverableKeyException is thrown from that method.

Caused by: java.security.UnrecoverableKeyException: Given final block not properly padded
	at com.sun.crypto.provider.SunJCE_z.a(DashoA13*..)
	at com.sun.crypto.provider.JceKeyStore.engineGetKey(DashoA13*..)
	at java.security.KeyStore.getKey(KeyStore.java:763)

Is KeyStore (specifically JceKeyStore) thread safe?

Thanks in advance.
