             Summary: Scram SHA SASL support for authentication
                 Key: QPIDJMS-150
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/QPIDJMS-150
             Project: Qpid JMS
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: qpid-jms-client
            Reporter: Keith Wall


The SCRAM SHA-1 and 256 SASL mechanisms https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5802 
offer better security than older SASL implementations. In particular the 
authentication information stored in the authentication database is not 
sufficient to impersonate the client if the database were to be stolen.

(The Java Broker already supports these mechanisms. The intention is to switch 
to recommend SCRAM instead of CRAM-MD5 shortly.  One barrier to making this 
switch is the absence of support in the client).
