Description

http4k's Digest authentication module (org.http4k:http4k-security-digest) before versions 6.48.0.0, 5.42.0.0 and 4.51.0.0 defaults the nonceVerifier parameter of ServerFilters.DigestAuth and DigestAuthProvider to { true }, so every nonce is accepted regardless of its value, age, or prior use. Applications relying on this default have no replay protection on Digest authentication: an attacker who can capture a valid 'Authorization: Digest' response (for example by observing network traffic or reading logs) can replay it indefinitely against the same protected resource.
