Ka-Lok Fung updated HTTPCLIENT-1545:
------------------------------------
Attachment: HTTPCLIENT-1545.patch.diff
Here's my patch for the issue. I also added a unit test. {{mvn test}} passes
100% on my developer box.
Even though I haven't tested it first hand, I believe this issue is
reproducible on any Windows system, even when your machine isn't a member of a
domain. If my unit test is run on a non-Windows machine, the unit test will be
ignored.
Any comments and feedback is welcome.
> Possible infinite loop when WindowsNegotiateScheme authentication fails

> Key: HTTPCLIENT-1545
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCLIENT-1545
> Project: HttpComponents HttpClient
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: HttpClient
> Affects Versions: 4.4 Alpha1
> Environment: Windows
> Reporter: Ka-Lok Fung

>
> When {{WindowsNegotiateScheme}} authentication fails, it's possible for
> HttpClient to retry the authentication in an endless loop because the
> {{continueNeeded}} flag is not set to {{false}} when authentication fails.
> One possible way of causing authentication to fail is to use a service
> principle name that is outside your Windows domain (e.g., HTTP/EXAMPLE.COM).
