jaas module should throw generic FailedLoginException
------------------------------------------------------
Key: KARAF-956
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KARAF-956
Project: Karaf
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Freeman Fang
Assignee: Freeman Fang
currently it always throw very detailed exception like
throw new FailedLoginException("User does not exist");
and
throw new FailedLoginException("Password for " + user + " does not match");
though it's very useful during development or debug, it can leak hint to
malicious client, we need
provide a configurable way to throw FailedLoginException with/without detailed
message.
Likely add a property in etc/org.apache.karaf.jaas.cfg, the default value is
just throw very generic FailedLoginException without detailed message, this
would be more safe for real productions env.
