How secure is nginx basic authentication over TLS?

Post Body
There is possibly to deploy fancy authentication with SSO and what have you, with third party tools on top of nginx. But it’s unclear how secure is the add-on code.
How about the basic authentication that comes out of the box with nginx? The password is sent in clear text, but it’s over https. Any vulnerabilities in the past?
It’s ugly, but for a small environment it’s ok.
