Josef Cacek created ELY-1288: -------------------------------- Summary: Elytron: OTP seed as byte array instead of String Key: ELY-1288 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/ELY-1288 Project: WildFly Elytron Issue Type: Bug Reporter: Josef Cacek Assignee: Darran Lofthouse The {{org.wildfly.security.password.interfaces.OneTimePassword}} interface contains {{getSeed()}} method which is of type {{byte[]}}. The more proper type seems to be a {{String}} (or {{char[]}}). The {{OneTimePassword}} interface type description says: bq. A one-time password, used by the OTP SASL mechanism. The [OTP RFC 2289|https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2289] says {noformat} The seed MUST consist of purely alphanumeric characters and MUST be of one to 16 characters in length. The seed is a string of characters that MUST not contain any blanks and SHOULD consist of strictly alphanumeric characters from the ISO-646 Invariant Code Set. The seed MUST be case insensitive and MUST be internally converted to lower case before it is processed. {noformat} *Suggested fix:* Change the {{getSeed()}} method type to String. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.2.3#72005)
