Release Note: Allow Key/Nonce Reuse for DECRYPT_MODE ChaCha20 and ChaCha20-Poly1305 Cipher Objects

XMLWordPrintable

      The SunJCE implementation for `Cipher` objects using the ChaCha20 and ChaCha20-Poly1305 algorithms will now allow key/nonce reuse when in `DECRYPT_MODE`. This change aligns these algorithms with the current SunJCE AES-GCM decrypt mode behavior as it pertains to key/nonce reuse. All `ENCRYPT_MODE` key/nonce reuse prohibitions remain unchanged from their current behavior.
