[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] (JGRP-1852) SASL challenge-response cycle does not process challenges

[Richard Achmatowicz (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JGRP-1852?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12976220#comment-12976220 ] 

Richard Achmatowicz commented on JGRP-1852:
-------------------------------------------

Come to think of it, what happens if a number of clients have authenticated to the current coordinator and then the coordinator changes? It would seem that any of the existing server contexts will not be present on the new coordinator.

> The SASL challenge-response cycle between a client peer and a server peer should look like this:
> * client sends (possibly empty) response
> * server evaluates response and sends challenge
> * client evaluates challenge and returns response
> and so on until the cycle ends.
> The client sends responses in SASL headers marked Type.RESPONSE.; the server sends challenges in SASL headers marked Type.CHALLENGE.
> Due to a typo, all headers are marked as Type.RESPONSE, so that CHALLENGE messages were not being processed. The test case passes none the less!
