Carsten Ziegeler commented on FELIX-6431:
-----------------------------------------
[~olli] You don't want to transfer the password to the client; so you usually
transfer a fixed value to the client like
"THIS_IS_A_PLACEHOLDER_FOR_THE_PASSWORD", If exactly that value is received by
the server on form submission, it will ignore that value and continue with the
existing password; if it is any other value, it will use it as the new password.

> Key: FELIX-6431
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-6431
> Project: Felix
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Web Console
> Affects Versions: webconsole-4.6.2
> Reporter: Oliver Lietz
> Assignee: Jean-Baptiste Onofré
> Priority: Major
>
> The heuristic reenabled in FELIX-6428 is very simple and all values where the
> field name contains {{password}} will be masked.
> {{input}} {{type}} of "password" fields needs to be {{password}} and
> {{input}} {{value}} needs to be the original (not obfuscated) value.
> Toggle {{input}} {{type}} with JavaScript from {{password}} to {{text}} and
> back to show/hide {{value}}.
