[jira] Commented: (WSS-147) WCF interop issue: Security header ordering constraint

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WSS-147?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12640081#action_12640081 ] 

Dittmann, Werner commented on WSS-147:
--------------------------------------

you can set the ordering of the sec tokens inside the sec header
using the "action" property of the Axis WS Security handlers.

> I have WCF Client which uses WS-Security UsernameToken profile. WCF also automatically adds a TimeStamp header which comes before the UsernameToken header in the Security header.
> If I try to call a CXF web service using CXF  exposed from a Java container then "Security header cannot be authorized" exception is thrown.
> The reason is that WSHandler::checkReceiverResults returns false. WSS4J excepts the security header contents to be in a particular oder in which Timestamp should come after UsernameToken but in this case it is the opposite and the validation fails. The WS-Security spec doesnt specify this ordering constraint and seems to have been self-imposed by WSS4J which is incorrect and needs to be fixed for the interop to work as desired.
