Resolution: Rejected
Review realm attribute in Elytron authentication-configuration
--------------------------------------------------------------
Key: ELY-1053
URL:
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/ELY-1053
Project: WildFly Elytron
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 1.1.0.Beta31-SP1
Reporter: Ondrej Lukas
Assignee: Darran Lofthouse
Priority: Critical
Is there any real scenario for usage of {{realm}} attribute in
authentication-configuration?
If server provides DIGEST-MD5 mechanism and client chooses it, then server provides name
of realm which should be used for creating {{user:realm:password}} digest. It was the
original reason which was provided to us. However it seems that reason for that attribute
is currently different. What is the reason for attribute {{realm}} in
authentication-configuration?
This information will be also needed for documentation.
