>          Components: jackrabbit-core
>    Affects Versions: 1.5.7
>            Reporter: Nicholas Stuart
>
> CryptedSimpleCredentials use getUserId().matches(cred.getUserId()) to match the userID values, but this uses a regex so it's kind of dangerous to have this here, and actually fails if say, the username has a + in it.
> Is there a reason why .equals() is not used?
