Colm O hEigeartaigh commented on WSS-152:
-----------------------------------------


What's the error exactly? 1.6 enforces the BasicSecurityProfile which says that 
a UsernameToken must have a password type set. This can be turned off though 
via WSSConfig.

> The Username Token Profile 1.1 specifies that  a password type is optional:
> "/wsse:UsernameToken/wsse:Password/@Type
>         This optional URI attribute specifies the type of password being 
> provided."
> and furthermore that the default value is "#PasswordText". However, looking 
> at the code in UsernameTokenProcessor it doesn't appear that we support 
> processing a Username Token with no password type defined...an exception will 
> probably be thrown here:
> else if (!WSConstants.PASSWORD_TEXT.equals(pwType) && 
> !handleCustomPasswordTypes) {
>     if (log.isDebugEnabled()) {
>         log.debug("Authentication failed as handleCustomUsernameTokenTypes is 
> false");
>     }
>     throw new WSSecurityException(WSSecurityException.FAILED_AUTHENTICATION);
> }
> In any case, a test is needed for this.
