Basic Authentication bug
------------------------
Key: XMLRPC-106
URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XMLRPC-106
Project: XML-RPC
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Source
Affects Versions: 3.0rc1
Reporter: Julio Francisco Veronelli
Attachments: HttpUtil.patch
Basic Authentication is not working correctly. Explanation:
The Base64 encoder inserts carriage-returns (\n) every 76 characters. But, the
HTTP header of Basic Authentication does not allow carriage-returns or
line-feeds inside the encoded data.
Here's a patch to fix this bug, by taking out all carriage returns inserted by
the Base64 encoder.
Cheers.
