Ensure that the credential algorithm for the DIGEST mechanism is set to digest-md5

    Description

      Follows up on the fix for ELY-2576.

      For ELY-2576, DigestAuthenticationMechanism#getH_A1 was updated because it was previously using digest-md5 in all cases for the credential algorithm.

      We switched to using getMechanismName() instead. This works for the DIGEST-SHA-256 and DIGEST-SHA-512-256 mechanism names but not for DIGEST. For DIGEST, digest-md5 needs to be used as before.

          Bug - A problem that impairs or prevents the functions of the product. ELY-2576 Make it possible to use DigestPasswords when using the DIGEST-SHA-256 and DIGEST-SHA-512-256 HTTP Digest authentication mechanisms

          • Major - To be worked after higher priority work items are addressed. When the severity is high and the effort to change it is low to moderate, this term is chosen. Issues in this category likely have an existing workaround but implementation or execution may be non-trivial.
