Here is an overview of the issue:

Key: XERCESC-1247
Summary: Base64::decode fails when string contains consecutive whitespace
Type: Bug
Status: Unassigned
Priority: Major
Project: Xerces-C++
Components:
Utilities
Versions:
2.5.0
Assignee:
Reporter: Frank Pilhofer
Created: Fri, 30 Jul 2004 11:57 AM
Updated: Fri, 30 Jul 2004 2:16 PM
Environment: N/A
Description:
The Base64::decode function requires that the input string does not
contain more than one consecutive whitespace.
However, there is no such restriction in RFC 2045, "Multipurpose
Internet Mail Extensions," which defines the Base 64 encoding in
section 6.8. In fact, it clearly states that
Any characters outside of the base64 alphabet are to be ignored in
base64-encoded data.
Note that the current implementation would, e.g., fail if the
input string contains a CR LF sequence.
Proposed resolution: get rid of the "inWhiteSpace" test.
