Summary: Classloading issue when having WSS4J in 2 different WARs
on the same Tomcat
Key: WSS-660
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WSS-660
Project: WSS4J
Issue Type: Bug
Components: WSS4J Core
Affects Versions: 2.2.4
Reporter: Philip Helger
Assignee: Colm O hEigeartaigh
Hi,
I'm struggling with a classloading issue, if wss4j-ws-security-dom.jar is
contained in more than one web application (WAR) running on the same Tomcat.
So assume I have 2 webapplications "wa1" and "wa2", which both contain a
servlet "/sign" that does some WSS signing. First I am calling "/wa1/sign" (all
good), than "/wa2/sign" (also good) and finall again "/wa1/sign" and here it
breaks with an "InvalidAlgorithmParameterException" in
"org.apache.wss4j.dom.transform.AttachmentContentSignatureTransform.init(AttachmentContentSignatureTransform.java:70)"
The reason is, that the expected class "AttachmentTransformParameterSpec" and
the provided class "AttachmentTransformParameterSpec" come from different class
loaders.
The problem is the "WSSConfig.init()" method. Currenty I am calling this
statically once per web application. This method indirectly calls the global
"Security.addProvider()" which also registers the
"AttachmentContentSignatureTransformProvider", but removes any previous
matching provider. And therefore the registration of "/wa2" wins, because it is
called second.
This is btw. the full stack trace of the second call to "/wa1/sign", with a
slightly pimped exception message to compare the classloaders:
java.security.InvalidAlgorithmParameterException: Expected
AttachmentTransformParameterSpec from ParallelWebappClassLoader
context: cl2
delegate: false
----------> Parent Classloader:
java.net.URLClassLoader@335eadca
but got org.apache.wss4j.dom.transform.AttachmentTransformParameterSpec from
ParallelWebappClassLoader
context: cl1
delegate: false
----------> Parent Classloader:
java.net.URLClassLoader@335eadca
instead
This class (AttachmentContentSignatureTransform) was loaded by
ParallelWebappClassLoader
context: cl2
delegate: false
----------> Parent Classloader:
java.net.URLClassLoader@335eadca
org.apache.wss4j.dom.transform.AttachmentContentSignatureTransform.init(AttachmentContentSignatureTransform.java:70)
org.apache.jcp.xml.dsig.internal.dom.DOMXMLSignatureFactory.newTransform(DOMXMLSignatureFactory.java:316)
org.apache.wss4j.dom.message.WSSecSignatureBase.addAttachmentReferences(WSSecSignatureBase.java:298)
org.apache.wss4j.dom.message.WSSecSignatureBase.addReferencesToSign(WSSecSignatureBase.java:119)
org.apache.wss4j.dom.message.WSSecSignature.addReferencesToSign(WSSecSignature.java:426)
org.apache.wss4j.dom.message.WSSecSignature.build(WSSecSignature.java:400)
Here is the stacktrace, how the "AttachmentContentSignatureTransform"
constructor is called:
Thread [qtp1843289228-22] (Suspended (breakpoint at line 66 in
AttachmentContentSignatureTransform))

WSSecSignature.addReferencesToSign(List<WSEncryptionPart>) line: 426
WSSecSignature.build(Crypto) line: 400
Any suggestions on what I can do to work around that issue?
Thanks, Philip
