Bug description: $_SERVER['PHP_AUTH_USER'] and $_SERVER['PHP_AUTH_PW'] not set
Description:
------------
after a browser sends the username and pass using a simple HTTP
authentication script php fails to set $_SERVER['PHP_AUTH_USER'] and
$_SERVER['PHP_AUTH_PW'] with the password and username
i'm using CGI version of php and apache 1.3.29
this is my configure command
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/php5 --with-zlib --with-bz2 --with-curl
--with-curlwrappers --with-gd=/usr/local/gd --with-mysql --enable-ftp
--with-mysql-sock --with-ttf --with-freetype-dir --enable-calendar
--with-jpeg-dir --with-png-dir --enable-force-cgi-redirect
and i'm using the php.ini-recommended config file with no modifications
the exact code i'm using works in php4.3.6
Reproduce code:
---------------
$username = 'user';
$password = 'pass';
if (!isset($_SERVER['PHP_AUTH_USER'])){
header('WWW-Authenticate: Basic realm="realm"');
header('HTTP/1.0 401 Unauthorized');
echo '401 ERROR';
} elseif ($_SERVER['PHP_AUTH_USER'] != $username ||
$_SERVER['PHP_AUTH_PW'] != $password){
header('WWW-Authenticate: Basic realm="realm"');
header('HTTP/1.0 401 Unauthorized');
echo '401 ERROR';
exit();
}
echo 'YOU logged in!!!';
Expected result:
----------------
should tell the browser to authenticate and send the username and pass to
php, if its the wrong username and pass tell it to re-authenticate or echo
"YOU logged in!!" if the username and pass are correct
Actual result:
--------------
it always tells the browser to re-authenticate because
$_SERVER['PHP_AUTH_USER'] and $_SERVER['PHP_AUTH_PW'] are never set
