Need to mask admin hash value

Open rajanvijayan opened this issue 3 years ago • 2 comments

Hi @sudar

I tried to update the admin email address, WordPress send a confirmation email with the admin hash value for security purposes.

But the email log page shows the hash value, Does it make sense?

If we can mask the hash value it would be more secure.

Thanks.

@rajanvijayan

What you are saying makes sense. There is no need to store the value unmasked.

I will add this to the enhancement queue.

Let me try to explain @sudar

WordPress does not support junk email addresses. But we can use a junk email address using the email log plugin. If we can mask the hash value. it would be solved,
