Summary
Starting in .NET 8, AEAD algorithms throw
AuthenticationTagMismatchException
to indicate that decryption failed because of the authentication tag mismatch. This is a sub-type ofCryptographicException
, so it was not considered a breaking change.This clarifies in the documentation that starting in .NET 8, users should expect this exception when the authentication tag does not match during decryption.
