* This {@link PasswordEncoder} is provided for legacy purposes only and is not considered secure.

|
|
|
+ * Encodes passwords using MD4. The general format of the password is:
|
|
|
+ *
|
|
|
+ * <pre>
|
|
|
+ * s = salt == null ? "" : "{" + salt + "}"
|
|
|
+ * s + md4(password + s)
|
|
|
+ * </pre>
|
|
|
+ *
|
|
|
+ * Such that "salt" is the salt, md4 is the digest method, and password is the actual
|
|
|
+ * password. For example with a password of "password", and a salt of
|
|
|
+ * "thisissalt":
|
|
|
+ *
|
|
|
+ * <pre>
|
|
|
+ * String s = salt == null ? "" : "{" + salt + "}";
|
|
|
+ * s + md4(password + s)
|
|
|
+ * "{thisissalt}" + md4(password + "{thisissalt}")
|
|
|
+ * "{thisissalt}6cc7924dad12ade79dfb99e424f25260"
|
|
|
+ * </pre>
|
|
|
+ *
|
|
|
+ * If the salt does not exist, then omit "{salt}" like this:
|
|
|
+ *
|
|
|
+ * <pre>
|
|
|
+ * md4(password)
|
|
|
+ * </pre>
|
|
|
+ *
|
|
|
+ * If the salt is an empty String, then only use "{}" like this:
|
|
|
+ *
|
|
|
+ * <pre>
|
|
|
+ * "{}" + md4(password + "{}")
|
|
|
+ * </pre>
|
|
|
+ *
|
|
|
+ * The format is intended to work with the Md4PasswordEncoder that was found in the
|
|
|
+ * Spring Security core module. However, the passwords will need to be migrated to include
|
|
|
+ * any salt with the password since this API provides Salt internally vs making it the
|
|
|
+ * responsibility of the user. To migrate passwords from the SaltSource use the following:
|
|
|
+ *
|
|
|
+ * <pre>
|
|
|
+ * String salt = saltSource.getSalt(user);
|
|
|
+ * String s = salt == null ? null : "{" + salt + "}";
|
|
|
+ * String migratedPassword = s + user.getPassword();
|
|
|
+ * </pre>
