Security Issue: Storing Passwords Without Protection in NGORoutes.js #60

Open its-AkshatJain opened 2 months ago

its-AkshatJain commented 2 months ago

In the NGORoutes.js file, when users register as NGOs, their passwords are being stored as plain text in the database. This means that if someone gains unauthorized access to the database, they could easily see users' passwords. To keep user information safe, passwords should be encrypted (hashed) before saving them. This adds an extra layer of security by making it difficult for hackers to decipher passwords even if they get access to the database.
