> Key: DERBY-2409
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-2409
> Project: Derby
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 10.0.2.0, 10.0.2.1, 10.1.1.0, 10.1.2.1, 10.1.3.1,
> 10.2.1.6, 10.2.2.0
> Reporter: Dag H. Wanvik
> Priority: Minor
>
> If a database is shutdown and booted with (re)encryption,
> the (re)encryption boot will silently fail (i.e. no (re)encryption takes
> place), if another
> connection has booted the database in the meantime.
> Presumably, if the database was encrypted at creation time, only the dba will
> have the bootpassword and the above scenario is less likely.
> If it was created unencrypted, is is more of a hole, IMHO: Any other
> connection
> can then foil the encryption boot, even one which can not be authenticated,
> cf DERBY-2407. To further exacerbate this issue; when the database is shutdown
> and rebooted, using the boot password supplied (and the database was not
> encrypted),
> no error is given, since a boot password is not required. This can lull a dba
> into thinking the encryption took place! :(
> We may want to generate a warning or an error in these cases.
> This issue may affect upgrade boots as well?
