Research direction
Start by locating the add_authentication implementation and its existing tests. Reproduce the flow where an externally redirected payment page returns to a URL requiring basic authentication, then trace whether authentication is retained across the redirect. Done means the origin URL no longer prompts for basic authentication after the external redirect, with a regression test covering that flow.
