-----------------------------------
> EncryptedKey security issue with streaming code
> -----------------------------------------------
>
> Key: WSS-413
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WSS-413
> Project: WSS4J
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Colm O hEigeartaigh
> Assignee: Marc Giger
> Fix For: 2.0.0
>
>
> Instead of throwing an exception when encountering a problem in processing an
> EncryptedKey, we should instead generate a session key and attempt to decrypt
> the EncryptedData structure instead (take a look at the DOM code here). This
> prevents timing attacks to see where the error was in processing the key
> versus data.
