----------------------------------------
Summary: HttpClient does not support (non preemptive) digest
authentication
Key: HTTPCLIENT-1970
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCLIENT-1970
Project: HttpComponents HttpClient
Issue Type: Bug
Components: HttpClient (classic)
Affects Versions: 4.5.6
Reporter: Cisto Cyriac
In HttpClient 4.5.6 the preemptive digest authentication works, however
non-Preemptive digest authentication does not work. We found this issue when
the HttpClient library was upgraded from 4.4.1 to 4.5.6.
As per rfc2617 https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2617#section-3.2.1
nonce is a server-specified data string which should be uniquely generated
each time a 401 response is made.
This issue can be reproduced by commenting out the following two digest
authentication override parameters in the preemptive auth example in
https://hc.apache.org/httpcomponents-client-4.5.x/httpclient/examples/org/apache/http/examples/client/ClientPreemptiveDigestAuthentication.java
DigestScheme digestAuth = new DigestScheme();
// Suppose we already know the realm name
//digestAuth.overrideParamter("realm", "some realm");
// Suppose we already know the expected nonce value
//digestAuth.overrideParamter("nonce", "whatever");
