Environment

SAP SuccessFactors Integration Center Job

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Run the Integration Center job
  2. Observe the error message: Failed due to - Exception while decrypting message with keys id xxxx - literal data truncated in header

Cause

The issue is due to the recent upgrade of the BouncyCastle library to version 1.79. This issue specifically affects customers using proprietary tools like Symantec PGP, while those using OpenPGP have not encountered any problems.

Resolution

Our team has determined that reverting the upgrade will resolve the issue (i.e., reverting back to 1.75). The fix date has been set as P8, so as per https://community.sap.com/t5/patches/tkb-p/hxm-patches, this is:
10th June in Preview
12th June in Production

In the meantime, the engineering team recommends avoiding encryption until the change is deployed.
