The problem with that query is that it will be very slow because it can't use indexes. The database would need to MD5 each row before it returned the matches. -- Hector On Fri, Mar 26, 2010 at 9:45 AM, Саша Стаменковић wrote: > You can do a simple query > > $this->_db->quoteInto('md5(CONCAT(ema

You can do a simple query $this->_db->quoteInto('md5(CONCAT(email, password)) = ?', $hash) and authenticate it if there are results, right? Sure, because it's faster, and you don't want all that data in clients cookie. Still thinking... Regards, Saša Stamenković On Fri, Mar 26, 2010 at 5:36

If you create the hash server-side and compare it to the cookie's hash, how do you know which user to generate a hash for? You would either have to do all of your users, or use some type of identifier. I suppose if you stored the username in plain text and the password in a hash, it could work. Th

But I want to keep session storage, and existing auth mechanism. What for should I implement cookie storage then? And writing to storage outside of Zend_Auth does not looks like smart solution. If you can get back original from cookie, isn't it security risk. isn't it better to store hash in cooki

Sounds nice. Zend_Auth in authenticate() do $this->getStorage()->write($result->getIdentity()); so, you cannot controll what is written in Zend_Auth_Storage, you can opnly control how it's written. How did you inject password into play? I think storing md5($email . $pass) in cookie where pass

In one of my apps I stored the user's username and password (using 2-way encryption) in their cookie, and only validated it when Zend_Auth reported there was no identity (because the session expired, or the browser was closed and re-opened). You can add more security by also storing a one-time use

@Jurian Nice idea, but since Zend_Auth stores only identity, I don't think that information is enought to reauthenticate from cookie. @Dmitry Yes, but Zend_Session::rememberMe() sets session expiration time, and session expiration is not per user setting, but per server setting. Regards, Saša Sta

You could write a Zend_Auth_Storage_Cookie which enables you to place the authentication in a cookie. Be careful to look at the possible exploits. Just a plain cookie without server-side validation is not safe. Still, the storage adapter for auth is the most simple one. -- Jurian Sluiman CTO So

I'm thinking, how to implement remember me in cookie zend style. I'm using Zend_Auth with Db_Table adapter. Maybe we can contribute some component for this. I heard that Cake PHP already have one. Regards, Saša Stamenković. -- View this message in context: http://n4.nabble.com/Remember-me-Zend
