XML dig sig error after upgrade to java7u25

Question

I have a Java application for signing XML documents. After upgrading Java to the latest version (Java7u25) it stops working. I get the following error:

javax         


        

Answer 1

I am facing the same issue only when ID is set with random UUID [guidForSignature ="_" + UUID.randomUUID().toString();] and when there are concurrent requests triggered at run time(Java 1.8).

I have tried setting the ID attribute like below which didn't help me. However, setting the ID attribute to constant ID value for all the requests resolved the issue.

Element element1= doc.getDocumentElement().setIdAttribute("ID", true);

OR

Element e1 =(Element)doc.getElementsByTagName("Assertion").item(0);
e1.setIdAttribute("ID", true);
