Brandon Williams resolved CASSANDRA-5316.
-----------------------------------------
Resolution: Won't Fix
Invoke the JMX methods that nodetool does yourself if you want to do this, or
use thrift yourself instead of the cli.
> Provide a secure way to pass password to nodetool, cassandra-cli and other
> tools

> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Core
> Affects Versions: 1.1.10
> Reporter: Oleg Kibirev
>
> Currently, if nodetool or cassandra-cli are invoked by another application,
> plaintext thrift or JMX password are visible to whoever does ps auxww. We
> need some other method to pass these in, for example a way to read arguments
> from file or first line of stdin.
