HTTP Digest, as specified in RFC 2617, is known to be vulnerable to
man-in-the-middle attacks if the client fails to authenticate the
server in TLS, or if the same passwords are used for authentication
in some other context without TLS. This is a general problem that
exists not just with HTTP Digest, but also with other IETF protocols
that use tunneled authentication. This document specifies version 2
of the HTTP Digest AKA algorithm (RFC 3310). This algorithm can be
implemented in a way that it is resistant to the man-in-the-middle
attack.
