Issue/Introduction

Problem is when using Android devices ( LG ) in our case MAS ( SDK )  versions 1.8, 1.9 and 2.0

The problem reported is that it failed to communicate with the servers making it impossible to use the app (only a blank screen is displayed during the process resulting in a crash).

Environment

What is the MAG SK version?  4.1.00.2591   

What is the OTK SK version?  4.2.00.3367

What is the GW version?  9.3.00

Is the Cordova Code is being written on an mac osx? No Cordova code is used.

Is there any customization? No

Is multi-user enabled? No

What's the Mobile SDK version? 1.9.10 ( test done below with 1.8 and 2.0 ) 

1) How frequently does it happen? Very often.

2) Is this an native Android app or Xamarin, Cordova? Native.

3) Are these physical devices or emulated? Physical.

For these LG users, we receive this error whenever user credentials are valid or invalid.

Cause

It turned out to be a concurrency issue, since Android Key-store is used by other apps as well.

Resolution

Since we were seeing these MAS errors with any specific behavior (working sometimes, but not always)

It turned out to be a concurrency issue, since Android Keystore is used by other apps as well.

 

Workaround in this case was to update MAS Foundation class KeyUtilsSymmetric by adding "synchronized" attribute to both the encrypt and decrypt methods.

After this, the client has done a lot of testing and so far this patch is very effective. 

example 

 

KeyUtilsSymmetric.java 

 1 ...   

 public synchronized static byte[] encrypt(byte[] data, SecretKey secretKey, String key) {
        if (data == null) {
            return null;
        }

        byte[] encryptedData;
        try {

...

  2   .... public synchronized static byte[] decrypt(byte[] encryptedData, SecretKey secretKey, String key) {
        Cipher cipher;
        try {
            cipher = Cipher.getInstance(AES_GCM_NO_PADDING);
        } catch (NoSuchAlgorithmException | NoSuchPaddingException e) { ...

 

we do have engineering ticket open on this at the moment for this to be part of the code / documentation
