Stefan Wendelmann commented on MCHANGES-395:
--------------------------------------------
Thanks for clearing this out
so have to store my password in plain into the settings.xml as property ?
No way to encrypt it before it gets parsed it ? like
<webPassword>encrypt(${jira.password})</webPassword>?
> JIRA password security

> Key: MCHANGES-395
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MCHANGES-395
> Project: Maven Changes Plugin
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: jira
> Affects Versions: 2.12.1
> Reporter: Stefan Wendelmann
> Priority: Major
>
> May it be possible to encrypt the Jira password or to ask for it from the
> console?
>
> AFAIK a there is no option in Jira to create a "special" User out of the
> licence for REST Calls so we have to use a real persons Account with his/her
> original password.
> And is the pom.xml with password saved into the jar in META-INF ? So anyone
> with winrar i.e. can read your Jira password in plaintext ?
>
> thanks in advance!
