-----------------------------------
Summary: ARCFOUR 128/256 ciphers initialization incorrect - always
fails
Key: SSHD-357
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SSHD-357
Project: MINA SSHD
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Goldstein Lyor
Fix For: 0.13.0
The ARCFOUR128/256 ciphers inherit the default _BaseCipher#init_ implementation
which creates an initialization vector. For RC4, this is not required - and
indeed causes _java.security.InvalidAlgorithmParameterException: Parameters not
supported_ when the cipher is initialized - even though everything is in order
(e.g., see what happens when _SshServer#setUpDefaultCiphers_ is run). This
means that these RC4 ciphers are *never* available. The fix (see attached patch
file) is to override the _init_ method and provide only a key.
