-----------------------------------------
(Adding Werner's mail to the wss4j-dev list as a comment on this issue)
Which system did you use to encode the data? Base64 always encodes
arbitrary binary data in a small set of the ASCII character set.
AFAIK Base64 does not encode binary data using the EBCDIC charater set.
Maybe you need to look for a specific Z/OS Base64 implementation.
According to RFC 4648: Base64 uses a 65-character subset of US-ASCII.
Best regards,
Werner

> Project: WSS4J
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: WSS4J Core
> Affects Versions: 1.5.8
> Environment: Z/OS
> Reporter: Beth Ayres
> Assignee: Ruchith Udayanga Fernando
>
> Base64.decode doesn't account for EBCDIC encoding.
> line 281: byte[] base64Data = encoded.getBytes();
> results in an array of garbage.
> Then, line 307: b1 = base64Alphabet[base64Data[dataIndex++]];
> causes an ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException.
> The result is that the PasswordDigest is blank.
