Description Vasyl Kaigorodov 2015-02-11 05:51:30 EST

Apache WSS4J has a "requireSignedEncryptedDataElements" boolean configuration property, which if set enforces that EncryptedData elements are in a signed subtree of the document. The default value of this property is "false". 
However, it is possible to circumvent this setting by various types of wrapping attacks.

This has been fixed in revision:
