Subject: [OASIS Issue Tracker] Updated: (OFFICE-2738) ODF 1.2 Part 3 section4.8.12 manifest:salt guidance
[ http://tools.oasis-open.org/issues/browse/OFFICE-2738?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]
Dennis Hamilton updated OFFICE-2738:
------------------------------------
Resolution:
Replace the text of 4.8.12 manifest:salt with
"""
The manifest:salt attribute carries the value of a cryptographically-random binary value designed to mitigate certain cryptographic attacks on the password. There is no maximum length to the salt. See [RFC2898] for further considerations in the use of salts with key-derivation and other cryptographic functions. The salt is encoded in the attribute value as base64binary.
"""
Simplified the statement and tied it to [RFC2898] in the resolution.
