             Summary: passwords handling in Manifold
                 Key: CONNECTORS-737
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CONNECTORS-737
             Project: ManifoldCF
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Maciej Lizewski


Currently you can see stored passwords in HTML body of the page which is quite 
big security hole. We could rewrite it so that the field is presented with some 
predefined constant string, like "###########" (only to show the field with 
some entered text). Then in process*Post handlers we should check if someone 
entered anything different here and only in such case overwrite previously 
stored password. When posted value is equal to "###########" - we leave 
previous password in configuration intact.

this applies to almost all connectors...
