> 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
> Assignee: 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.
