New issue 26653 by pkast...@chromium.org: Improve omnibox/history system handling of HTTP auth URLs http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=26653 There are two related fixes that need to be made: * URLs with HTTP auth info should have usernames/passwords stripped before entering the URL DB. Otherwise, simply hitting ctrl-h and copying the link address reveals the credentials. It also prevents autocompletion on the hostname, since we prefix-check against the credentials instead. When we do this we should probably "migrate" all the old data by stripping these. * In either the AutocompleteInput parser or the HistoryURLProvider (I'm not sure which), attempted usernames or passwords should be stripped off before running autocomplete. -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.
