== Noncompliant Code Example

import javax.crypto.NoSuchPaddingException
import java.security.NoSuchAlgorithmException
import javax.crypto.Cipher
class test {
fun main(args: Array<String>) {
try {
val c1 = Cipher.getInstance("DES") // Noncompliant: DES works with 56-bit keys allow attacks via exhaustive search
val c7 = Cipher.getInstance("DESede") // Noncompliant: Triple DES is vulnerable to meet-in-the-middle attack
val c13 = Cipher.getInstance("RC2") // Noncompliant: RC2 is vulnerable to a related-key attack
val c19 = Cipher.getInstance("RC4") // Noncompliant: vulnerable to several attacks (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RC4#Security)
val c25 = Cipher.getInstance("Blowfish") // Noncompliant: Blowfish use a 64-bit block size makes it vulnerable to birthday attacks
val nc = NullCipher() // Noncompliant: the NullCipher class provides an "identity cipher" one that does not transform or encrypt the plaintext in any way.
