25 /**
26  * This annotation is used to disable the InsecureCipherMode Error Prone checker for legacy code
27  * that didn't undergo a security review by ISE.
28  *
29  * <p>A {@link Cipher} object is created using one of the overloads of the
30  * {@link Cipher#getInstance()} method. This method takes a specification of the transformer either
31  * as a triple "Algorithm/Mode/Padding" or just "Algorithm", using the provider's default settings.
32  * The InsecureCipherMode checker implemented in Error Prone flags all call sites of
33  * {@link Cipher#getInstance()}, where either the insecure ECB mode or the provider's default mode
34  * is used. This method annotation is used to suppress the Error Prone checker for legacy code
35  * without review by ISE. The annotation is BUILD-visibility restricted and every use must be vetted
36  * by the ISE team.
37  *
38  * <p>Example of usage:
39  * <pre>
40  * {@code
41  * @SuppressInsecureCipherModeCheckerNoReview
42  * private String decrypt(String[] input) {
43  * Cipher aesCipher = Cipher.getInstance("AES");
44  * aesCipher.init(Cipher.DECRYPT_MODE, new SecretKeySpec(rawKeyMaterial, "AES"));
45  * // ...
46  * }
47  * }
48  * </pre>
