Colm O hEigeartaigh commented on SYNCOPE-313:
---------------------------------------------
Hi Francesco,
That sounds reasonable to me. Two questions though:
a) By "synchronization actions" are you referring to the existing Actions class
that you can select in the Resource configuration? (e.g.
LDAPMembershipPropagationAction), or something new that would be associated
with the Connector itself?
b) We still have the problem with BASE-64/HEX encoding that I raised. What do
you think of my first two points?
Thanks,
Colm.
> Support synchronizing non-cleartext passwords from external resources
> ---------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: SYNCOPE-313
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SYNCOPE-313
> Project: Syncope
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Colm O hEigeartaigh
> Assignee: Colm O hEigeartaigh
> Fix For: 1.2.0
>
>
> Currently we can synchronize cleartext passwords from external resources.
> However, we can't handle non-cleartext passwords, as they get treated as if
> they are plaintext passwords when imported into Syncope, and hence hashed
> again according to user.cipherAlgorithm().
> This task is to treat an imported password as hashed according to a give
> cipher algorithm configured on the connector (for example via 'Password
> Cipher Algorithm' for the DB Connector).
> This is specific to each individual connector, as for example for the DB
> Connector, it might just be a hashed value stored in a table, whereas for
> LDAP it'll be of the form "CIPHER}VALUE" etc.
> Note that we we cannot refer to any specific connector bundle from inside the
> SyncopeSyncResultHandler, hence we should find the cleanest place to
> encapsulate the following logic:
> if (password.isClearText()) {
> // do as currently done
> } else {
> if (connector.isLDAP()) {
> // extract cipher and value
> } else if (connector.isDBTable()) {
> // treat value as ciphered with the cipher defined in connector
> configuration
> } else {
> ...
> }
> }
