----------------------------------
Summary: JAXRS JAASAuthenticationFilter not rfc2617 compliant for
WWW-Authenticate realms
Key: CXF-5157
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CXF-5157
Project: CXF
Issue Type: Bug
Components: JAX-RS Security
Affects Versions: 2.7.5, 2.7.6
Reporter: Jeff Genender
Fix For: 2.7.7
The JAASAuthenticationFilter not rfc2617 compliant for WWW-Authenticate realms.
Currently the returned headers for a realm called "foo" would return:
Basic foo
However, according to rfc2617 p2/3 it states:
The authentication parameter realm is defined for all authentication
schemes:
realm = "realm" "=" realm-value
realm-value = quoted-string
Therefor the above example is supposed to look like the following:
Basic realm="foo"
This will make the JAX-RS authentication compliant with the rfc and also
compatible with other implementations such as Jetty.
