XML Digital Signature throws NAMESPACE_ERR exception under OpenJDK 11 that works under Java SE 8

3878978Jan 30 2019 — edited Feb 6 2019

My XML Digital Signature code runs fine under Java 8 (1.8.0_161), but on upgrading to OpenJDK 11 (11.0.2, ), it now traps with an NAMESPACE_ERR exception:

org.w3c.dom.DOMException: NAMESPACE_ERR: An attempt is made to create or change an object in a way which is incorrect with regard to namespaces.

If I revert back to Java 8, it works again.

I noted that our XML digital signature code makes no direct references to namespaces. Basic code does set the DocumentBuildFactory to be namespace aware:

DocumentBuilderFactory dbf = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();

dbf.setNamespaceAware(true);

When we sign under Java 8, this is the resulting digitally signed output for our XML <snapshot> element, which does have a namespace of our own:
