When HEAD request is used with a proxy (or a server) that requires NTLM, authentication fails when server returns large (8kb+) body along with NTLMSSP_CHALLENGE response.
Proposed fix is to check for ongoing NTLM auth in `reset()` and consume the response body in this case. Alternatively the whole check for `HEAD` method in `reset()` can be dropped. ------------- Commit messages: - 8270290: NTLM authentication fails if HEAD request is used Changes: https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk/pull/4753/files Webrev: https://webrevs.openjdk.java.net/?repo=jdk&pr=4753&range=00 Issue: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8270290 Stats: 264 lines in 2 files changed: 263 ins; 0 del; 1 mod Patch: https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk/pull/4753.diff Fetch: git fetch https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk pull/4753/head:pull/4753 PR: https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk/pull/4753
