Hi, I've read the Cake documentation and Googled, but can't find an answer to
this question...

I'm building a simple CMS to use on a couple of my own websites, using Cake
1.2 RC4, and since it's for the use of a small group of known, invited
users, I'm focusing my initial security efforts on the publicly accessible
pages such as logging in and resetting lost passwords. I should probably
state at this point that in my day job I have several years' experience of
writing web apps in PHP and Perl, but am new to CakePHP (as in only been
using it for about five days!).

Having built the user functionality I need - login, logout, update details,
change password, etc - and got it working to my satisfaction, I've started
on securing it by using Sanitize in my users_controller to clean up all form
input. However the one automagical function that I'm having trouble with is
login(). I've worked out how to do additional stuff (like timestamping the
user record) after Auth has done its magic, but how can I sanitize the user
input? Do I even need to?

Thanks in anticipation!
