---------------------------------------
Summary: Same password can be used multiple times, when SSHA is
used for password hash.
Key: DIRSERVER-1822
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRSERVER-1822
Project: Directory ApacheDS
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Peter Hmelak
When using SSHA (salted SHA) for password hashing, no CONSTRAINT_VIOLATION
(invalid reuse of password present in password history) is thrown, if new
password is the same as one already in pwdHistory.
I believe current implementation just compares new password hash, with with
ones stored in pwdHistory.
And because of new salt, no two hashes are ever a-like, even though passwords
are the same.
Suggestion for fix:
*Every* salt stored in pwdHistory should be used, together with new password
when creating password hashes, that are then compared with ones already stored
in pwdHistory.
