           Summary: Login page should use POST method instead of GET
           Product: Lenya
           Version: 1.2.4
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: critical
          Priority: P1
         Component: Access Control
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


The login page for Lenya 1.2.4 (and I think 1.4 as well) uses a GET
instead of a POST, which causes user passwords to be exposed in clear text in
the web access log files.

The solution is to change login.xsl from this:

        <form method="get">
          <input type="hidden" name="lenya.usecase" value="login" />
          <input type="hidden" name="lenya.step" value="login" />

to this:

        <form method="post" action="?lenya.usecase=login&amp;lenya.step=login">

I'll attach a patch shortly...
