Content & configuration
@Bean
    public OpenAPI customOpenAPI() {
        return new OpenApi()
                .components(new Components().addSecuritySchemes("basicScheme",
                        new SecurityScheme().type(SecurityScheme.Type.HTTP).scheme("basic")))
                .addSecurityItem(new SecurityRequirement().addList("basicScheme",
                        Collections.singletonList("basic")));
    }

Example Swagger/OpenAPI definition:

springdoc:
  endpoint: "/swagger"
  pathsToMatch: /v1/**
  api-docs:
    enabled: true

  swagger-ui:
    path: ${springdoc.endpoint}/swagger-ui.html
  cache:
    disabled: true
Describe the bug you're encountering

During the logout from Authorize button, I see that "curl" doesn't contain the header with Authorize, but it seems credentials still exist in session.

To reproduce...

Steps to reproduce the behavior:
The scenario for basic auth:

  1. Call secured endpoint from swagger-ui list and got proper unauthorized information.
  2. Click Authorize button
  3. Set login and password
  4. Call secured endpoint and got the proper result from swagger-ui list
  5. Click Authorize button
  6. Click Logout button
  7. Call the same endpoint from points 1 and 4, but there should be information like unauthorized, but still got the proper result expected only for logged user.

Note:

  • I have tried to set at point 7 the same username but wrong password - still didn't get unauthorized information.
  • When set another wrong username at point 7 finally got proper unauthorized information.

Research direction

Reproduce the basic-auth flow in Swagger UI using the steps in the issue, then inspect the authorize and logout behavior that controls request credentials. Done means logging out removes the stored credentials so a subsequent call to the secured endpoint returns unauthorized, including when the same username is reused.
