Description

AbstractRememberMeServices does not erase Credentials as ProviderManager do after successful authentication. Although this behavior can be done by customizing the onSuccessfulAuthentication of RememberMeAuthenticationFilter, hope the default erase action can be added so that the RememberMe authentication flow is consistent with normal authentication flow serviced by ProviderManager .

Research direction

Start by reading AbstractRememberMeServices and comparing its successful-authentication behavior with ProviderManager's credential-erasure behavior. Check the RememberMeAuthenticationFilter flow and add or adjust coverage for successful remember-me authentication; done means credentials are erased by default without customization.
