ietfdb (5.3.0) ietf; urgency=medium
|
||||
|
||||
This release changes user authentication for the datatracker from basic http
|
||||
auth to Django's built-in authentication. This has the advantage of making it
|
||||
possible to log out, and log in as a different user, which can be useful,
|
||||
and it also changes the password hash storage for each user to a much stronger
|
||||
hash scheme, upon his or her first successful login after the deployment.
|
||||
|
||||
The email-verification roundtrip which is required to create a new login, or
|
||||
change the password of an existing login, is retained. For the time being,
|
||||
creating an account and updating a password will also be reflected in the
|
||||
htpasswd file which was used for authentication previously; however, since
|
||||
this cancels the advantage of stronger password hashing which django's built-in
|
||||
authentication provides, it should be phased out as soon as possible.
