Jacques Le Roux commented on OFBIZ-3006:
----------------------------------------
Your last comment makes now (that I'm refreshed) totally sense for me Adam. So
indeed salt should only be used with SHA1 not MD5 or other bi-directional
encryptions.
> entity encrypt columns not using encryption salt value?

> Key: OFBIZ-3006
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-3006
> Project: OFBiz
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Components: framework
> Affects Versions: SVN trunk
> Reporter: chris snow
> Assignee: Adam Heath
>
> It looks as though no salt data is used when saving encrypted entity data
> making the stored data susceptible to dictionary attacks.
> If you look through the stored demo data, you can see all the demo accounts
> passwords are the same:
> {code}
> UserLogin:
> admin {SHA}47ca69ebb4bdc9ae0adec130880165d2cc05db1a
> flexadmin {SHA}47ca69ebb4bdc9ae0adec130880165d2cc05db1a
> ...
> {code}
> As a comparison, if you create a two unix accounts, "ofbiz1" and "ofbiz2" and
> set both passwords to "ofbiz"
> {code}
> ofbiz1:$6$3.mYZg9u$0E...:14524:0:99999:7:::
> ofbiz2:$6$MJhYeMqO$Jf...:14524:0:99999:7:::
> {code}
> You can see that on unix, even though the passwords are the same, the
> encrypted values are completely different.
