WS_E_SECURITY_VERIFICATION_FAILURE

What to check for WS_E_SECURITY_VERIFICATION_FAILURE

  • Verify clocks, trust stores, revocation access and the security configuration shared by client and server.
  • Do not bypass signature, certificate or token verification to make the request succeed.

Diagnostic interpretation

This result has the HRESULT value 0x803D000A. AllStat records the condition as “Security verification was not successful for the received data.”.

Evidence to capture

  • Capture any IErrorInfo text, activity identifier, event-log entry, and subsystem trace that mentions this result or the ws / security / verification operation.
  • Preserve the first failure in the call chain; a later HRESULT can describe cleanup rather than the original ws / security / verification condition.
