-----------------------------------------------

             Summary: login is called with unhashed password
                 Key: CLOUDSTACK-6311
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-6311
             Project: CloudStack
          Issue Type: Bug
      Security Level: Public (Anyone can view this level - this is the default.)
          Components: Doc
    Affects Versions: 4.3.0
            Reporter: Demetrius Tsitrelis


In the description of the password parameter on 
http://cloudstack.apache.org/docs/api/apidocs-4.3/root_admin/login.html it says:

"Hashed password (Default is MD5). If you wish to use any other hashing 
algorithm, you would need to write a custom authentication adapter See Docs 
section."

This was true for older versions of CloudStack but not anymore.  The password 
should be passed as cleartext and the configured authenticators will then hash 
it with the appropriate algorithm.
