------------------------------------
Summary: Put obfuscation password in an external file
Key: CONNECTORS-1327
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CONNECTORS-1327
Project: ManifoldCF
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Framework core
Affects Versions: ManifoldCF 2.4
Reporter: Aurélien
Priority: Minor
It seems that the obfuscation tool uses a symmetric encoding with password and
salt to obfuscate/deobfuscate passwords. I can see that there is a way to
change the salt with a property, but it seems that the password is hardcoded in
the source code.In order to try to improve security in MCF, I would like to be
able to store the password (that is currently hardcoded) used for obfuscation
in a specific configuration file. The aim of this approach is to be able to
change it but also to be able to add specific linux access right on it.
