[jira] Updated: (PDFBOX-538) CryptographyException on Adobe Distiller generated file

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-538?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Luc Claes updated PDFBOX-538:
-----------------------------

    Description: 
Well... this is actually *not* a PDFBox bug, but an Adobe Distiller (7.0.x) one...

The following exception is thrown in StandardSecurityHandler.computeEncryptedKey:

org.apache.pdfbox.exceptions.CryptographyException: Error: length should be 5 when revision is two actual=16

The PDF file is accepted by various readers and contains the following object:

2106 0 obj
<< 
/Filter /Standard
/V 1
/R 2
/Length 128
/P -12
/O (f¥—èàã؇�æa§�»eücmý/Æ6ïàY÷[*™6)
/U (å£átÂ>c÷sÉcû^KÞ•À›¶YjCò~)
>>
endobj

Referenced by an encrypt tag:
/Encrypt 2106 0 R

PDFBox rejects (rightly) such an object with version 1, revision 2 and a length != 5*8

That said, we are parsing many of those files to feed a Lucene index. Could the validation be relaxed ?

Re: [jira] Updated: (PDFBOX-538) CryptographyException on Adobe Distiller generated file

Posted by Ad...@swmc.com.
So I take it version 1 revision 2 doesn't support 128 bits keys?  Because 
16 bytes would be a 128-bit key, which is what is specified as the 
"Length", so that all seems to match.

You add a boolean to the StandardSecurityHandler alwaysAllow128BitKey and 
then use that in computeEncryptedKey().  That way it'll do the validation 
by default but still allow you to override this.
