Internet-Draft HTTP Authentication Scheme Registrations November 2013
1. Introduction
This document registers Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP)
authentication schemes which have been defined in standards-track
RFCs before the IANA HTTP Authentication Scheme Registry was
established.
2. Security Considerations
There are no security considerations related to the registration
itself.
3. IANA Considerations
The table below provides registrations of HTTP authentication schemes
to be added to the IANA HTTP Authentication Scheme registry at
<http://www.iana.org/assignments/http-authschemes> (see Section 5.1
of [draft-ietf-httpbis-p7-auth]).
+----------------+------------+-------------------------------------+
| Authentication | Reference | Notes |
| Scheme Name | | |
+----------------+------------+-------------------------------------+
| Basic | [RFC2617], | |
| | Section 2 | |
| Bearer | [RFC6750] | |
| Digest | [RFC2617], | |
| | Section 3 | |
| Negotiate | [RFC4559], | This authentication scheme violates |
| | Section 3 | both HTTP semantics (being |
| | | connection-oriented) and syntax |
| | | (use of syntax incompatible with |
| | | the WWW-Authenticate and |
| | | Authorization header field syntax). |
| OAuth | [RFC5849], | |
