             Summary: Observable Timing Discrepancy (Timing Attack)
                 Key: PDFBOX-5798
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-5798
             Project: PDFBox
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Simon Steiner


A static analyse tool is reporting:

An attacker can guess the secret value of digest because it is compared using 
java.util.Arrays.equals, which is vulnerable to timing attacks. Use 
java.security.MessageDigest.isEqual to compare values securely.
