A CipherInputStream is composed of an InputStream and a Cipher so that read() methods return data that are read in from the underlying InputStream but have been additionally processed by the Cipher. The Cipher must be fully initialized before being used by a CipherInputStream.
For example, if the Cipher is initialized for decryption, the CipherInputStream will attempt to read in data and decrypt them, before returning the decrypted data.
This class adheres strictly to the semantics, especially the failure semantics, of its ancestor classes java.io.FilterInputStream and java.io.InputStream. This class has exactly those methods specified in its ancestor classes, and overrides them all. Moreover, this class catches all exceptions that are not thrown by its ancestor classes. In particular, the skip method skips, and the available method counts only data that have been processed by the encapsulated Cipher. This class may catch BadPaddingException and other exceptions thrown by failed integrity checks during decryption. These exceptions are not re-thrown, so the client may not be informed that integrity checks failed. Because of this behavior, this class may not be suitable for use with decryption in an authenticated mode of operation (e.g. GCM). Applications that require authenticated encryption can use the Cipher API directly as an alternative to using this class.
It is crucial for a programmer using this class not to use methods that are not defined or overriden in this class (such as a new method or constructor that is later added to one of the super classes), because the design and implementation of those methods are unlikely to have considered security impact with regard to CipherInputStream.

(->cipher-input-stream is c)
Constructor.
Constructs a CipherInputStream from an InputStream and a Cipher. Note: if the specified input stream or cipher is null, a NullPointerException may be thrown later when they are used.
is - the to-be-processed input stream - java.io.InputStream

(available this)
Returns the number of bytes that can be read from this input stream without blocking. The available method of InputStream returns 0. This method should be overridden by subclasses.
returns: the number of bytes that can be read from this input stream
without blocking. - int
throws: java.io.IOException - if an I/O error occurs.

(close this)
Closes this input stream and releases any system resources associated with the stream.
The close method of CipherInputStream calls the close method of its underlying input stream.

(mark-supported this)
Tests if this input stream supports the mark and reset methods, which it does not.
returns: false, since this class does not support the
mark and reset methods. - boolean

(read this)
(read this b)
(read this b off len)
Reads up to len bytes of data from this input stream into an array of bytes. This method blocks until some input is available. If the first argument is null, up to len bytes are read and discarded.
b - the buffer into which the data is read. - byte[]
off - the start offset in the destination array buf - int
len - the maximum number of bytes read. - int
returns: the total number of bytes read into the buffer, or
-1 if there is no more data because the end of
the stream has been reached. - int
throws: java.io.IOException - if an I/O error occurs.

(skip this n)
Skips n bytes of input from the bytes that can be read from this input stream without blocking.
Fewer bytes than requested might be skipped. The actual number of bytes skipped is equal to n or the result of a call to available, whichever is smaller. If n is less than zero, no bytes are skipped.
The actual number of bytes skipped is returned.
n - the number of bytes to be skipped. - long
returns: the actual number of bytes skipped. - long
