How to disable Java Security Warning

495265Sep 11 2012
Hello Friends

I am running different versions of JRE on a machine due to specific application exigencies.
However I noticed that when entering on the application using the lower JRE Version,the following warning message is being obtained.
The application requires an earlier version of Java.Do you want to continue.

I have searched on the net..and someone advised to disable next generation Java Plug in.Apparently it solves the issue.

But I see several advantages we get by enabling this option.Can we disable it or any other way..I can avoid seeing this warning message.

Regards
Kam.

Answer

What platform are you on? What are the permissions for the keyfile and directory containing the keyfile? In particular, are the file/directory permission set to permit only the current user to read them? Our new library defaults to enforcing the recommended SSH security practice of having keyfiles be readable by only the current user.

Hi John,

i'm running SQL Developer on MacOS 10.15.2. The file permission for the private key is limited to "rw-------" (600). But the directory (".ssh") containing the keys has a lower permission level with "rwxr-xr-x". I limited it to "rwx------" and now the SSH Connections in SQL Developer are working again! Great support, thank you!

I'm glad that you were able to solve your issue. The lack of proper feedback with our new SSH library is something I am looking into. In a future release I hope to provide detailed information when we run into a configuration issue.

I had the same problem in my environment.
(SQLDeveloper version 21.2.1.204, build 204.1703)

After investigating the cause, I found that it was a bug in Apache Mina SSHD 2.6.0.
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SSHD-1105
(I've confirmed that this fix solves the problem)

This bug has been fixed in sshd-2.7.0.

I want you to update the version of sshd included in SQLDeveloper.

Thanks for the update. Can you test in your environment with our 21.4.3 release? We updated to sshd-2.7.0 in that release, so hopefully it works out of the box.

Thank you for your comment.
After upgrading, it worked fine!
(SQL Developer version 21.4.3.063, build 063.0100)

The Japanese page is still 21.2.1, so I'd be happy if you could update it.
