> Issue Type: Improvement

> Affects Versions: ManifoldCF 2.4
> Reporter: Aurélien

> Priority: Minor

> It seems that the obfuscation tool uses a symmetric encoding with password
> and salt to obfuscate/deobfuscate passwords. I can see that there is a way to
> change the salt with a property, but it seems that the password is hardcoded
> in the source code.In order to try to improve security in MCF, I would like
> to be able to store the password (that is currently hardcoded) used for
> obfuscation in a specific configuration file. The aim of this approach is to
> be able to change it but also to be able to add specific linux access right
> on it.
