[Native Image] GSS context is not getting initialized in native image

[yogeshkumargeek]

Describe the Issue

I wanted to use the GSS context for kerberos token verification.
The normal gradlew run is working correctly with micronaut and I am able to authenticate the token
But , not able to do it in the native Image

Using the latest version of GraalVM can resolve many issues.

• I tried with the latest version of GraalVM.

GraalVM Version

OpenJDK Runtime Environment GraalVM CE 21.0.2+13.1

Operating System and Version

linux

Diagnostic Flag Confirmation

• I tried the -H:ThrowMissingRegistrationErrors= flag.

Run Command

./gradlew nativeCompile

Expected Behavior

Gsscontext should be initalized

Actual Behavior

21:28:18.451 [default-nioEventLoopGroup-1-4] ERROR i.m.http.server.RouteExecutor - Unexpected error occurred: null
java.lang.NullPointerException: null
        at java.security.jgss@21.0.2/sun.security.jgss.GSSContextImpl.acceptSecContext(GSSContextImpl.java:339)
        at java.security.jgss@21.0.2/sun.security.jgss.GSSContextImpl.acceptSecContext(GSSContextImpl.java:303)

Steps to Reproduce

buildArgs.add('--verbose')
buildArgs.add('--strict-image-heap')
buildArgs.add('--add-opens java.base/java.lang=ALL-UNNAMED') //for reflection
buildArgs.add('--enable-native-access')
buildArgs.add('-Dsun.security.jgss.native=true')
buildArgs.add('-H:AdditionalSecurityProviders=sun.security.jgss.SunProvider')
buildArgs.add('-H:IncludeResourceBundles=sun.security.util.Resources')
buildArgs.add('-H:+EnableSecurityServicesFeature')

Hi, Please provide a reproducer to this issue

[yogeshkumargeek]

Hi , @oubidar-Abderrahim ,
When we are running the micronaut application, using ./gradlew run , we are able to get the GSS context and authenticate the token

But when creating a native executable using ./gradlew nativeCompile
args used in build.gradle

buildArgs.add('--verbose')
buildArgs.add('--strict-image-heap')
buildArgs.add('--add-opens java.base/java.lang=ALL-UNNAMED') //for reflection
buildArgs.add('--enable-native-access')
buildArgs.add('-Dsun.security.jgss.native=true')
buildArgs.add('-H:AdditionalSecurityProviders=sun.security.jgss.SunProvider')
buildArgs.add('-H:IncludeResourceBundles=sun.security.util.Resources')
buildArgs.add('-H:+EnableSecurityServicesFeature')

Then we are seeing this error :

21:28:18.451 [default-nioEventLoopGroup-1-4] ERROR i.m.http.server.RouteExecutor - Unexpected error occurred: null
java.lang.NullPointerException: null
        at java.security.jgss@21.0.2/sun.security.jgss.GSSContextImpl.acceptSecContext(GSSContextImpl.java:339)
        at java.security.jgss@21.0.2/sun.security.jgss.GSSContextImpl.acceptSecContext(GSSContextImpl.java:303)

import org.ietf.jgss.GSSManager;
import org.ietf.jgss.GSSName;

GSSManager gssManager = GSSManager.getInstance();   
GSSContext gssContext = gssManager.createContext((GSSCredential)null);   Not able to set context here
