SASL base64 encoding was incorrect.
RFC 3920 specifies that any characters not in the base64 alphabet and
padding characters present elsewhere than at the end of the string MUST be
rejected. See also fromBase64
.
This exception is raised whenever the encoded string does not adhere to these additional restrictions or when the decoding itself fails.
The recommended behaviour for so-called receiving entities (like servers
in client-to-server connections, see RFC 3920 for terminology) is to fail
the SASL negotiation with a 'incorrect-encoding'
condition.
For initiating entities, one should assume the receiving entity to be
either buggy or malevolent. The stream should be terminated and
reconnecting is not advised.
