Matt Wringe commented on JBWS-3386:
-----------------------------------

hmm, yeah, looking at this again it appears you are right that the username is mandatory but not the password. I must have misread the spec when filling out the original jira (and the interoperability issue we were seeing was with an empty password but with a username specified).

> Usernametoken support is currently broken as it requires a username and password to be present in the wss security header. According to the WSS specifications (both 1.0 and 1.1*) these are optional elements in wsse:UsernameToken. If either one of these elements are missing, then JBossWS incorrectly throws a WSSecurityException.
> See http://anonsvn.jboss.org/repos/jbossws/stack/native/trunk/modules/core/src/main/java/org/jboss/ws/extensions/security/element/UsernameToken.java lines 78 and 84 for where it should not be throwing this error.
