Volker Jung updated HTTPCLIENT-1961:
------------------------------------
Description:
A cookie received in a 401 'Unauthorized' response does not get processed.
I am trying to get SSO (using 'Negotiate' scheme) working using WinHttpClients.
The flow is as follows:
* The original request gets redirected (302 'Moved temporarily') to an URL of
an authentication service.
* The authentication service respondes with a 401 'Unauthorized' response,
containing the authentication challenge ('Negotiate' scheme) and a cookie with
a JSessionId.
* The HTTP-Client handles the authentication challenge, adding the
authentication response header, but does not process the cookie therefore not
adding the cookie to the response.
As a consequence, the authentication service does not handle the authentication
response and the connection is running into timeout.
As far as I understand the code, the problem might be that the authentication
handling is done solely in class 'MainClientExec', while the processing of
request- and response-interceptors takes place in 'ProtocolExec' which
decorates 'MainClientExec' (as build by HttpClientBuilder). Since processing
cookies is done through interceptors (ResponseProcessCookies,
ResponseAddCookies), cookies of 401 'Unauthorized' responses are never
processed.
