password not hash on ~/.config/aurvote #17

Open null0x0 opened 8 years ago

The password is not hashed on config file. For security reason, this is very bad. I will not use it, until aurvote provides better method to hash the password or can be read using another 3rd party application.

The password can't be hashed, since the AUR needs the plain text password in the URL to log in. It could be encrypted, though, similar to a keyring.

Agree with @null0x0: I won't use (or vote for it ;)) until aurvote does not store my password in plain text anymore. I'd rather prefer to enter my password for every command.

Ah. aurvote-git seems to do this, looking at https://github.com/archlinuxfr/aurvote/blob/master/aurvote#L173 :]

It would be great if works with Gnome Keyring
