JAVA.CRYPTO.KEY : Insecure Key Derivation (Java)

要旨

An insecure key derivation function is used.

The iterations of an algorithm during an encryption are very relevant for the safety of encrypted data (for more information check the OWASP documentation).

Some cryptography algorithms are nowadays considered as outdated and unsafe or actually broken, since they are too easy to decode. This checker identifies uses of unsafe algorithms for cryptography.

The OWASP documentation provides more information on Using the Java Cryptographic Extensions.
