PDFBOX-5798: use MessageDigest.isEqual() to prevent timing attacks
> 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
> Priority: Major
>
> 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.
