๐ Strip whitespaces from `Authorization` header credentials
## Description
Fixes whitespace handling in authorization header parameter extraction to comply with [RFC 6750](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc6750#section-2.1).
## Problem
The current implementation preserves leading/trailing whitespace in the extracted credential parameter. While RFC 6750 allows one or more spaces (`1*SP`) between "Bearer" and the token, the token definition (`b64token`) doesn't include whitespace characters, meaning spaces should be treated as separators only.
This causes the extracted credentials to include extraneous whitespace, which can lead to authentication failures.
## Solution
Added `.strip()` to the parameter extraction to remove leading and trailing whitespace:
```python
return scheme, param.strip()
```
## Reproduction
### Before the fix:
```python
from typing import Annotated
from fastapi import Depends, FastAPI
from fastapi.security import HTTPAuthorizationCredentials, HTTPBearer
app = FastAPI()
security = HTTPBearer()
@app.get("/users/me")
def read_current_user(
credentials: Annotated[HTTPAuthorizationCredentials, Depends(security)]
):
return {"scheme": credentials.scheme, "credentials": credentials.credentials}
```
**Test case 1: Single space (correct)**
```bash
curl -X 'GET' \
'http://127.0.0.1:8000/users/me' \
-H 'Authorization: Bearer xxx'
```
Response: `{"scheme":"Bearer","credentials":"xxx"}` โ
**Test case 2: Multiple spaces**
```bash
curl -X 'GET' \
'http://127.0.0.1:8000/users/me' \
-H 'Authorization: Bearer xxx'
```
Response: `{"scheme":"Bearer","credentials":" xxx"}` โ
**Test case 3: Trailing whitespace**
```bash
curl -X 'GET' \
'http://127.0.0.1:8000/users/me' \
-H 'Authorization: Bearer xxx '
```
Response: `{"scheme":"Bearer","credentials":"xxx "}` โ
### After the fix:
All three test cases now return: `{"scheme":"Bearer","credentials":"xxx"}` โ
## Changes
- Modified `get_authorization_scheme_param()` in `fastapi/security/utils.py` to strip whitespace from the parameter
- Added test cases to verify the fix handles multiple spaces and trailing whitespace correctly
