Confidential Information is stored in plain text in the DB
Is there an existing issue for this?
- [X] I have searched the existing issues
Summary
It's simple, confidential stuff like
-
public.Account.providerAccessToken(the JWT token of a user) is stored in plain text -
MAILER_SMTP_URLis stored in plain text which can contain credentials -
MICROSOFT_CLIENT_SECRETis stored in plain text, which, if someone uses a priviledged client for some reason , can wipe whole azure accounts in the wrong hands.
There are probably more cases like this and I don't like it.
Why should this be worked on?
if passwords are in plain text, the security would be compromised by anyone having a glance at it. simple
