The next version of MongoDB will include SCRAM-SHA-256 as an authentication type. This is defined in RFC 7677. The sample conversation from the RFC is:
This is a simple example of a SCRAM-SHA-256 authentication exchange... The username 'user' and password 'pencil' are being used C: n,,n=user,r=rOprNGfwEbeRWgbNEkqO S: r=rOprNGfwEbeRWgbNEkqO%hvYDpWUa2RaTCAfuxFIlj)hNlF$k0, s=W22ZaJ0SNY7soEsUEjb6gQ==,i=4096 C: c=biws,r=rOprNGfwEbeRWgbNEkqO%hvYDpWUa2RaTCAfuxFIlj)hNlF$k0, p=dHzbZapWIk4jUhN+Ute9ytag9zjfMHgsqmmiz7AndVQ= S: v=6rriTRBi23WpRR/wtup+mMhUZUn/dB5nLTJRsjl95G4=
In advance of updates to the Auth spec, which will include additional details of mechanism negotiation and user/password normalization (see DRIVERS-444), all drivers should take steps now to ensure their SCRAM libraries are capable of operating in SHA-256 mode, using the sample conversation for verification. (You'll need for force the client nonce to be "rOprNGfwEbeRWgbNEkqO" for the test conversation to work.)
