             Summary: Windows.pm::sanitize_files doesn't remove password if 
changed since capture
                 Key: VCL-885
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VCL-885
             Project: VCL
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: vcld (backend)
    Affects Versions: 2.4.2
            Reporter: Andy Kurth
            Assignee: Andy Kurth
             Fix For: 2.4.3


The password of the root and Administrator accounts in Windows images get set 
to a known value stored in _vcld.conf_ when an image is captured.  These 
accounts' passwords are randomized after an image is loaded.

There is at least one script (_autologon_enable.cmd_) stored in Windows images 
which contains the default password.  {{Windows.pm::sanitize_files}} attempts 
to remove the default password from this script and other files it finds under 
_C:\Cygwin\home\root_.

If the default password is changed in _vcld.conf_ after an image is captured, 
the old password will not be removed from the files because the VCL process 
only searches for the current value.  This should be improved.
