   Title:   Maintaining HTTP Integrity Fields in Cached and Cache-Generated Responses

Abstract:

   HTTP caches update stored response fields, combine partial responses,
   and construct responses from stored state.  Those operations can move
   an Integrity field value onto content or representation data
   different from the data to which the value originally applied.

   This document updates RFC 9111 by defining field-specific maintenance
   rules for Content-Digest, Repr-Digest, and Unencoded-Digest.  A cache
   either preserves the association between each retained or emitted
   dictionary member and its defined input, recomputes the member over
   the resulting input, or removes the member.  The rules cover stored-
   field updates, 304 and HEAD freshening, partial-response combination,
   cache-generated 304, HEAD, and 206 responses, and content-coding
   transformations.  No new HTTP field, status code, cache directive,
   validator, or digest algorithm is defined.
