## SignedXml and EncryptedXml Breaking Changes
### Scope
Minor
### Version Introduced
4.6.2
### Source Analyzer Status
Planned
### Change Description
In .NET Framework 4.6.2, Security fixes in `SignedXml` and `EncryptedXml` lead
to different run-time behaviors. For example,
* If a document has multiple elements with the same `id` attribute and a
signature targets one of those elements as the root of the signature, the
document will now be considered invalid.
* Documents using non-canonical XPath transform algorithms in references are now
considered invalid.
* Documents using non-canonical XSLT transform algorithms in references are now
consider invalid.
* Any program making use of external resource detached signatures will be unable
to do so.
- [ ] Quirked
- [ ] Build-time break
### Recommended Action
Developers might want to review the usage of
`System.Security.Cryptography.Xml.XmlDsigXsltTransform` and
`System.Security.Cryptography.Xml.XmlDsigXPathTransform`, as well as types
derived from `System.Security.Cryptography.Xml.Transform` since a document
receiver may not be able to process it.
### Affected APIs
* `T:System.Security.Cryptography.Xml.Transform`
* `T:System.Security.Cryptography.Xml.XmlDsigXPathTransform`
* `T:System.Security.Cryptography.Xml.XmlDsigXsltTransform`
