[jira] Created: (DIRSTUDIO-228) Mask userPassword in the log view

Mask userPassword in the log view
---------------------------------

                 Key: DIRSTUDIO-228
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRSTUDIO-228
             Project: Directory Studio
          Issue Type: Improvement
    Affects Versions: 1.0.1
            Reporter: Emmanuel Lecharny


When adding a userPassword in an existing entry, the password is not shown in the main windows (which is a good idea). But when the entry is modified, the log view shows the entire ldif, with the password in clear text (or BASE64 encoded).

It would be much safer to replace the password with ****** in the ldif logs.

[jira] Resolved: (DIRSTUDIO-228) Mask userPassword in the log view

Posted by "Stefan Seelmann (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>.
     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRSTUDIO-228?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Stefan Seelmann resolved DIRSTUDIO-228.
---------------------------------------

    Resolution: Fixed

Added a preference to define masked attributes:
  http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?rev=696773&view=rev

By default none attribute is masked. Is this sufficient or should we mask userPassword by default?
