           Summary: [Cocoa] WebProtectionSpace::receivesCredentialSecurely
                    incorrectly returns false in some cases
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: Unspecified
        OS/Version: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: WebKit2
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: mitz at webkit.org
                CC: ap at webkit.org, beidson at apple.com


WebProtectionSpace::receivesCredentialSecurely uses the generic test in WebCore::ProtectionSpace (perhaps soon to be in ProtectionSpaceBase), rather than -[NSURLProtectionSpace receivesCredentialSecurely]. This leads to false negatives, such as in the case of an HTTP server with NEGO/NTLM authentication. This causes the authentication sheet in Safari to falsely say that the password will be sent unencrypted.
