Re: [mod-security-users] Basic auth protection

I was able to narrow down using decode and TX, however, the issue I'm having now is that:
Rule 559a7f24c920: SecAction "initcol:USER=%{TX:1}"
Failed to resolve macro %{tx:1}: Unknown variable: tx:1
How do I take what I captured previously and put it in as a key in a collection?
thanks

Hey Adam,
Yes, that is possible. It's a nice exercise actually. You need to strip the
"Basic " prefix, fill the rest into a variable and then t:base64 that variable
and then extract the 2nd part after the colon. I've built sort of a
dumb authentication cache based on this. It's been in production for close
to ten years now, running like a charm.
Cheers,
Christian
