    Details

    • Type: Bug
    • Status: Applied
    • Priority: Minor
    • Resolution: Fixed
    • Affects Version/s: ODF 1.2 Part 1 CD 4
    • Fix Version/s: ODF 1.2 Part 1 CD 5
    • Component/s: General
    • Labels:
      None
    • Environment:

      This issue applies to all versions of ODF 1.2 Part 1 CD04

    • Proposal:
      Hide

      In Section F.1, delete the 4th bullet item in the first list,
      """

      • Encryption algorithms for protection keys (19.700 and 19.698.3)
        """

      Insert, at the same place, the following two bullet items:
      """

      • table:protection-key (19.699) and text:protection-key (19.852) are no longer implementation-dependent. The default for these attributes is now SHA1.
      • table:protection-key-digest-algorithm (19.700) and text:protection-key-digest-algorithm (19.853) are new optional attributes for specifying the algorithm by which the corresponding protection-key attribute value is derived.

      Description

      The only mention of the breaking changes and new normative requirements for protection keys is this section F.1 bullet point (4th in the first list):

      """

      • Encryption algorithms for protection keys (19.700 and 19.698.3)
        """
        The reference to 19.698.3 is incorrect. A better reference is 19.853.

      Also, this change is more than additive.

      The values for table:protection-key (19.699) and text:protection-key (19.852) were previously (ODF 1.1) left as implementation-dependent. That is no longer true, with specific default now required in the absence of the 1.2-added optional protection-key-digest-algorithm attrributs.
