Digest Fields
RFC 9530, “Digest Fields”, is a Proposed Standard document published in February 2024 by R. Polli, L. Pardue. It obsoletes RFC 3230. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
This document defines HTTP fields that support integrity digests. The Content-Digest field can be used for the integrity of HTTP message content. The Repr-Digest field can be used for the integrity of HTTP representations. Want-Content-Digest and Want-Repr-Digest can be used to indicate a sender's interest and preferences for receiving the respective Integrity fields.
This document obsoletes RFC 3230 and the Digest and Want-Digest HTTP fields.
What “Proposed Standard” means
An entry-level standards-track specification: stable, peer-reviewed and a solid basis for implementation, though it may still evolve before becoming an Internet Standard.
