Hi everyone, I encountered today an unexpected behaviour of Firefox today. When I receive this kind of http Digest challenge :
HTTP/1.1 401 Unauthorized [...] WWW-Authenticate: Digest realm="X.X.X.X", nonce="jDtaVwL2Yn41zxAefxOtRZ6FoLB2bAAAAAAAAAAAAAA=", qop="auth-int", algorithm=AKAv1-MD5 Firefox hangs and does not respond to the challenge correctly. I don't see the usual pop-up asking for a username/password when it receives a Http Digest challenge, and apparently the usual code handling Http Digest challenge in Firefox is not called (component "@mozilla.org/ network/http-authenticator;1?scheme=digest"). Firefox works fine with other Http Digest challenge, so I suspect (since it's the only visible difference) that's because of the parameter algorithm=AKAv1-MD5. So I've investigated to see how RFC3310 (dealing with Http Digest AKA) was supposed to be handled by browsers. I didn't find any clue about Firefox supposed behaviour when receiving such a Digest challenge... Could anyone give me any lead/clue/ information please ? Thank you, Best regards, _______________________________________________ dev-tech-network mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-tech-network
