This is how auth_user.password is defined internally: https://github.com/web2py/web2py/blob/master/gluon/tools.py#L1753
is_crypted = CRYPT(key=settings.hmac_key, min_length=settings. password_min_length) Field(passfield, 'password', length=512,readable=False, label=self.messages. label_password, requires=[is_crypted]), so, yeah, you need to add CRYPT validator by yourself.
