HTTP Basic Authentication Broken with Long Credentials
Reported by Tyler Hunt | April 30th, 2009 @ 06:47 PM | in 2.x
When using long credentials with HTTP Basic authentication, the resultant Base64 encoded string will have a newlines. This causes the current authorization routine to choke due to the use of #split on the auth string.
Here's a patch with test to fix the issue.
