Description Christopher Head 2009-11-25 07:28:11 UTC 
According to RFC2617 section 3.2.2:

"The nc-value is the hexadecimal count of the number of requests (including the current request) that the client has sent with the nonce value in this request."

However, in libsoup/soup-auth-domain-digest.c, function check_hex_urp, file line 306, the function atoi() is called against the client-provided value, performing a decimal conversion.
