EncryptionTypes are not correctly handled in the server
-------------------------------------------------------
Key: DIRSERVER-1690
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRSERVER-1690
Project: Directory ApacheDS
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Emmanuel Lecharny
Priority: Blocker
Currently, EncryptionType are stored in a Set, and we compare the expected
ETypes passed by the client with the configured ETypes we support in the
server. They are both stored in a Set, which is not ordered.
The problem is that there is nothing like a EType negotiation between the
client and the server, so the encrypted data will be encrypted using the
strongest Etype found in the list of Etypes, where the leftmost EType is the
strongest, and the rightmost is the weaker.
Using a set is then a guarantee that we will face issues at some point. We must
use a List instead.
