Description

Since 3.8 FE user passwords are rendered as password fields. BUT, they are shown both in the page module (listed records beneath the page content) and in the item view popup (info) of the list module.

Is this a security related bug? Need this fixed in 3.8.1?

Reopened, because there is no information which bug number is the duplicate.

You can use TSconfig to make the password field disappear from the LIST module. Or what should get changed here?

If the TCA field is configured to hide the contents of the field, then Web>Page should not show the value of the field. Otherwise it's pointless.

So by default Web>List must be configured not to show the password field any more.

I suggest to turn down these plain-text passwords completely and use MD5-summed password instead. Transition will be possible using the compatVersion feature...

Well, md5 ist an option, but only for 4.1. For 4.0.x the password must be hidden (or shown everywhere) to have a consistent UI.

Though I'd like to see md5-FE-passwords as an option. In fact I dislike the hiding of the passwords, but argue here solely on basis of UI-consitency.

I see. Of course this makes sense then.

I think the default behaviour should remain as is for backwards compatibility reasons.

Desribe me more detailled what should be done here and I can provide a patch.

Actions #8

Updated by Martin Kutschker about 18 years ago

Web>page is currently configured/hardcoded in such a way that it shows the password file.

Also the the passwordfields is listed in interface[showRecordFieldList] of the TCA.

In tbl_cms.php we have
$TCA['fe_users'] = Array (
...
'columns' => Array (
...
'password' => Array (
'label' => 'LLL:EXT:cms/locallang_tca.php:fe_users.password',
'config' => Array (
'type' => 'input',
'size' => '10',
'max' => '40',
'eval' => 'nospace,required,password'
)
),
'types' => Array (
'0' => Array('showitem' => 'username;;;;2-2-2, password, usergroup, lockToDomain, --div--, name;;2;;3-3-3, address, zip, city, country, telephone, fax, email, www, image;;;;4-4-4, --div--, TSconfig;;;;5-5-5')
),
------------------------------------

So the Web->Page should check the TCA field, if eval contains 'password' and if true then this field should not be listed.
The same for the LIST module popup of the fe_users info.

Do not close bugs before a fix has been released! Instead, change them to "resolved".
