Francesco Chicchiriccò commented on SYNCOPE-313: ------------------------------------------------ Almost :-) I would only change c) to {{DBPasswordSynchronizationAction}} will be designed to work with a database. It just stores the encoded password directly into {{SyncopeUser}}, with the presumption that the password is encoded in HEX in the database + hashed via the algorithm configured in the ""Password cipher algorithm" parameter of the underlying connector instance (this might be different from internal storage's {{password.cipher.algorithm}}). > Support synchronizing non-cleartext passwords from external resources > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: SYNCOPE-313 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SYNCOPE-313 > Project: Syncope > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Colm O hEigeartaigh > Assignee: Colm O hEigeartaigh > Fix For: 1.2.0 > > > Currently we can synchronize cleartext passwords from external resources. > However, we can't handle non-cleartext passwords, as they get treated as if > they are plaintext passwords when imported into Syncope, and hence hashed > again according to user.cipherAlgorithm(). > This task is to treat an imported password as hashed according to a give > cipher algorithm configured on the connector (for example via 'Password > Cipher Algorithm' for the DB Connector). > This is specific to each individual connector, as for example for the DB > Connector, it might just be a hashed value stored in a table, whereas for > LDAP it'll be of the form "CIPHER}VALUE" etc. > Note that we we cannot refer to any specific connector bundle from inside the > SyncopeSyncResultHandler, hence we should find the cleanest place to > encapsulate the following logic: > if (password.isClearText()) { > // do as currently done > } else { > if (connector.isLDAP()) { > // extract cipher and value > } else if (connector.isDBTable()) { > // treat value as ciphered with the cipher defined in connector > configuration > } else { > ... > } > } -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
