Git Pull Request:
Web console doesn't accept passwords with non-ascii characters
--------------------------------------------------------------
Key: WFCORE-1413
URL:
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFCORE-1413
Project: WildFly Core
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Domain Management
Reporter: Bartosz Spyrko-Śmietanko
Assignee: Bartosz Spyrko-Śmietanko
Fix For: 3.0.0.Alpha1
Firefox, Safari and IE use ISO-8859_1 character encoding when generating authentication
header. If the credentials contain umlauts (eg. ü), the decoded string on the server is
incorrect and authentication fails.
This affects web console authentication when LDAP is used as credentials store.
Web console can solve this by using
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/UNDERTOW-595 which
adds ability for Undertow to use user-agent patterns to choose correct charset during
BASIC authentication.
