CFB mode padding error about spongycastle-old

[sbheinric]

From Wikipedia, "CFB, OFB and CTR modes do not require any special measures to handle messages whose lengths are not multiples of the block size, since the modes work by XORing the plaintext with the output of the block cipher. The last partial block of plaintext is XORed with the first few bytes of the last keystream block, producing a final ciphertext block that is the same size as the final partial plaintext block. This characteristic of stream ciphers makes them suitable for applications that require the encrypted ciphertext data to be the same size as the original plaintext data, and for applications that transmit data in streaming form where it is inconvenient to add padding bytes."

Hi @sbheinric - Spongy Castle is a repackage of the Bouncy Castle libraries intended specifically for Android, which ships with a crippled version of Bouncy Castle. This means it's best if you submit this issue to the upstream project, using the dev-crypto mailing list:

http://www.bouncycastle.org/mailing_lists.html

Once the issue's been resolved, I can release an updated version of Spongy Castle based on the fixed version of Bouncy Castle.
