I am writing simple REST plugin for Confluence 6.10.1.

Client require the service to be used without confluence session.
How can I confirm that request is authenticating as an admin user?
The request is sent with basic auth.

Right now I am decoding authentication header and parsing username (which is terrible, I know).
Is there any method which allows me to try to login with basic auth encrypted string and know which user was logged in, without decrypting it?
