Issue/Introduction

  I Configure WSS service to handle WS-security enveloppes when protecting
  the soap resource /myservice/services/OpenSecWebService/serviceWSS, the
  service fails and I'd like to know what means the error seen :

  Trying to resolve id: #id-6B4F79D3E5B3A12A5E147248702585410
  Found nodeElem http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/:Body
  Check if Timestamp covered by header or Envelope? signedElem=4signatureType=-124
  SM_WSC_00629 - Unspecified acceptance error.
  SM_WSC_00624 - Signature-0 was not accepted.
  SM_WSC_00909 - Failed to validate signature
  dispatch request failed.

Environment

WSS Agent 12.52SP1CR04 64bit on Apache 2.4 on RedHat 6 64bit; Policy Server 12.52SP1CR04 on RedHat 6 64bit;

Cause

  In the XML Signature Restrictions pane, you need to select :

  Must Cover Body of Message
  Require Signature over wsu:Timestamp Element

  as per documentation :

  "If the authentication scheme is configured to require the
  timestamp element, the digital signature must cover that timestamp."

Resolution

  Configuring the SOAP signature restriction in the pane

    "XML Signature Restrictions"

  by selecting these options :

    Must Cover Body of Message
    Require Signature over wsu:Timestamp Element

  it solves the issue.
