| Doc Text: |
Cause:
The passwords for the keystore and truststore were being passed to EAP as system properties
Consequence:
As system properties, they are passed to the executable in plain text as "-D" parameters. This means the passwords could be leaked via something like the 'ps' command.
Fix:
The passwords are now being set in a system property file.
Result:
The passwords are not longer able to be leaked using something like the 'ps' command.
