Re: [Dolibarr-dev] Forum send plaintext password on mail confirmation

Hello

Thanks for your reply. I'm reassured. Sounds better to have not
password stored in plaintext :)

To wait new forum system could be interesting to remove in template
confirmation mail password line.

Thanks a lot

Re: [Dolibarr-dev] Forum send plaintext password on mail confirmation

Hello Km,

Thanks for reporting this.

The passwords are not stored in plaintext in the database but are salted and 
hashed before being stored.
An email is however sent with the plain text password before being salted and 
hashed to be stored in the database.

I agree with you that this is considered bad practice to send emails with 
plaintext passwords (as email should be considered an insecure media).

We are in the process of transitioning to a new forum software (starting with 
the French community forum).
My research for Discourse can be read at

Please, note that others users are considering others forum software.

But this should be fixed with that transition.

Jean
