I need to decode and then split the String to work with it. Until now, we use to:

    byte[] decodedBytes = Base64.getDecoder().decode(stringToDecode);
    String decodedString = new String(decodedBytes);
    String timemillisToken = decodedString.split(c)[n];

Problem is that right now, fortify is asking us to avoid this, but I didnt find (or didnt understand) the answers I found for this problem.

“The call to String() on line nnn of SomeClass.java converts a byte array into a String, which may lead to data loss.”

We are sure that we are not going to loss data, so we thought about suppress it, but in another comment its saying:

“This can lead to data being lost, or a decrease in the level of security“

So we want to change if possible to avoid this warning.

Any tip? Thanks!
