Overview

::Net::IMAP authenticator for the “‘DIGEST-MD5`” ::Net::IMAP::SASL mechanism type, specified in RFC-2831. See Net::IMAP#authenticate.

Deprecated

DIGEST-MD5” has been deprecated by RFC-6331 and should not be relied on for security. It is included for compatibility with existing servers.

Constructor Details

.new(username, password, authzid = nil, **options) ⇒ authenticator .new(username:, password:, authzid: nil, **options) ⇒ authenticator .new(authcid:, password:, authzid: nil, **options) ⇒ authenticator

Creates an Authenticator for the “DIGEST-MD5::Net::IMAP::SASL mechanism.

Called by Net::IMAP#authenticate and similar methods on other clients.

Parameters

  • #authcid ― Authentication identity that is associated with #password.

    #username ― An alias for #authcid.

  • #password ― A password or passphrase associated with this #authcid.

  • optional #authzid ― Authorization identity to act as or on behalf of.

    When #authzid is not set, the server should derive the authorization identity from the authentication identity.

  • optional warn_deprecation — Set to false to silence the warning.

Any other keyword arguments are silently ignored.

Instance Attribute Details

#authcid (readonly)

Alias for #username.

alias authcid username

#authzid (readonly)

Authorization identity: an identity to act as or on behalf of. The identity form is application protocol specific. If not provided or left blank, the server derives an authorization identity from the authentication identity. The server is responsible for verifying the client’s credentials and verifying that the identity it associates with the client’s authentication identity is allowed to act as (or on behalf of) the authorization identity.

For example, an administrator or superuser might take on another role:

imap.authenticate "DIGEST-MD5", "root", ->{passwd}, authzid: "user"

#password (readonly)

A password or passphrase that matches the #username.

The password will be used to create the response digest.

attr_reader :password

#username (readonly) Also known as: #authcid

Authentication identity: the identity that matches the #password.

RFC-2831 uses the term username. “Authentication identity” is the generic term used by RFC-4422. RFC-4616 and many later RFCs abbreviate this to #authcid.
