----------------------------------------
Summary: Support hashed password
Key: FELIX-4299
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-4299
Project: Felix
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Web Console
Affects Versions: webconsole-4.2.0
Reporter: Felix Meschberger
Assignee: Felix Meschberger
Fix For: webconsole-4.2.2
While the Web Console supports extension of its access authentication, the
default authentication is just a simple username/password match where the
password is part of the configuration and may be flying around in plaintext.
To prevent the password from being stored in plain text in the configuration,
the Web Console should support simple hashing of the password. A hashed
password is of the form
{hashCode}base64-encoded-hashed-password
where hashCode is the hash algorithm used and base64-encoded-hashed-password is
the hashed password encoded in base64.
