             Summary: Coverity: Incorrect definition of RawKey as a parent of Serializable classes
                 Key: WFLY-7967
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFLY-7967
             Project: WildFly
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Security
            Reporter: Martin Choma
            Assignee: Darran Lofthouse


There are some Serializable classes, which extends from RawKey, which is not Serializable.

*     RawRSAPrivateKey
*     RawDHPrivateKey
*     RawPBEKey
*     RawECPrivateKey
*     RawDSAPrivateKey

Either mark RawKey as Serializable as well or if this is not desired, provide no-args constructor in RawKey class, as javadoc describes:

During deserialization, the fields of non-serializable classes will be initialized using the public or protected no-arg constructor of the class. A no-arg constructor must be accessible to the subclass that is serializable. The fields of serializable subclasses will be restored from the stream. [1]
