Problem with processing Username Tokens with no password type
-------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: WSS-152
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WSS-152
             Project: WSS4J
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: WSS4J Core
    Affects Versions: 1.5.4
            Reporter: Colm O hEigeartaigh
            Assignee: Colm O hEigeartaigh



The Username Token Profile 1.1 specifies that  a password type is optional:

"/wsse:UsernameToken/wsse:Password/@Type
        This optional URI attribute specifies the type of password being 
provided."

and furthermore that the default value is "#PasswordText". However, looking at 
the code in UsernameTokenProcessor it doesn't appear that we support processing 
a Username Token with no password type defined...an exception will probably be 
thrown here:

else if (!WSConstants.PASSWORD_TEXT.equals(pwType) && 
!handleCustomPasswordTypes) {
    if (log.isDebugEnabled()) {
        log.debug("Authentication failed as handleCustomUsernameTokenTypes is 
false");
    }
    throw new WSSecurityException(WSSecurityException.FAILED_AUTHENTICATION);
}

In any case, a test is needed for this.
