Server: Debian Jessie, PHP 5.6.29-0, apache 2.4.10-10, mysql 5.5.54-0
Client: thunderbird (every OS), RSSDemon (android), I am afraid $WahtSoEver, too.
Description
Before 3.2 I used this URL
.../feed.php?auth=http
Together with my credentials in various external RSS readers (eg Thunderbird and RSSDemon worked perfectly).
Those URL came up with an auth challenge and after successful login you get a feed meeting what you are entitled to.
After 3.2 this isn't possible anymore. The url:
.../feed.php?auth=http
is redirected to
app.php/feed
and the htp-auth query is ignored. Adding the query to app.php/feed?auth=http isn't working, too. It seems it is just ignored here 
.
Though the right feed is displayed well, if you view it in a bowser that has the auth in cache or is already authorised, the missing auth challenge prevents that you can use external RSS readers, that used to work perfectly before. As I am really in need of that feature I am afraid I have to downgrade .
