Password in plaintext #44

Closed Loris1123 closed 10 years ago

The password in .megacmd shoudln't be stored in plaintext. This is a huge security issue. If someone has access to the file, he has access to all my cloud data.

in Linux aren't you able to set the permissions of a file so that only a particular user/group can read it?

Loris1123 commented 10 years ago

Of course you are. But in my opionion it isn't a goot practice to store accountdata in plaintext in a configfile.

you can always specify a path in megacmd commandline megacmd -conf config_file_path
