SimpleAuthenticator with MD5 does not work
------------------------------------------
Key: CASSANDRA-1474
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-1474
Project: Cassandra
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Core
Affects Versions: 0.6.5
Environment: Any, for the purpose of this test Vista was used
Reporter: Peter Nerg
When running the SimpleAuthenticator in MD5 mode it will try to compare the
plain text password with a MD5 digest from the passwd.properties file.
However the password in the property file is already a MD5 digest thus it's now
digested twice.
Code snippet
"
case MD5:
authenticated = MessageDigest.isEqual(password.getBytes(),
MessageDigest.getInstance("MD5").digest(props.getProperty(username).getBytes()));
break;
"
