           Summary: exc-c14n damages namespaces of XML
           Product: Security
           Version: Java 1.4.2
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Canonicalization
        AssignedTo: security-dev@xml.apache.org
        ReportedBy: aklitz...@gmail.com


The canonicalizer (java) with exc-c14n produces an invalid XML document here.
It removes a namespace from an attribute that is still used in that element. It
attach an example xsd and xml file.
If I use canonicalize this xml file with exc-c14n it will remove the namespace
xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema";. So the attribute
ns:type="xs:string" won't be valid afterwards.
Even if I add the namespace to the root element (bla:document) it will be
removed.

Validated with xmllint --noout --schema example.xsd example.xml

Is this really correct for this canonicalization method to damage the xml file?
