[GitHub] cloudstack pull request: Shuffling the password to avoid having a ...

GitHub user nnesic opened a pull request:

    https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/pull/1058

    Shuffling the password to avoid having a subset of characters in fixed positions.

    Related to CLOUDSTACK-9052.
    
    I am shuffling the characters in the password, to avoid having a certain char type in fixed positions. I modified the tests accordingly to only check that the different character types are present. 
    
    I think it would be good to remove the hard requirement to have at least one of digits, upper-case, and  lowercase chars, as it reduces the number of possible combinations passwords can take. What do you think?

    This was merged to 4.6, then to master as it is a security improvement that applied cleanly.
    
    @bhaisaab You may want to include this in the final 4.5 release.

    LGTM, based on a set of tests that I run on this branch (which I rebased myself first). Screenshot is from an experimental Jenkins job (that runs the same tests I did manually until now).

    These test may not cover your change, all they do is show you didn't break them.
