🛡️ Sentinel: CRITICAL Fix Unsalted Password Storage#25
Conversation
Implements salted password hashing using a random salt for each password, replacing the previous unsalted mechanism. Introduces a lazy migration path to automatically and securely upgrade users' password hashes to the new format upon their next login, ensuring no disruption to existing users. Adds comprehensive unit tests for the new PasswordManager logic to verify both new hashes and backward compatibility with old hashes. Updates the .gitignore to exclude generated test artifacts and log files from version control. Co-authored-by: richkmeli <7313162+richkmeli@users.noreply.github.com>

🚨 Severity: CRITICAL
💡 Vulnerability: The application was storing user passwords without a salt, making them vulnerable to rainbow table attacks.
🎯 Impact: An attacker with database access could easily crack a large number of user passwords.
🔧 Fix: This change enforces salted password hashing for all new and updated passwords. It implements a "lazy migration" to transparently upgrade existing users' password hashes to the new, secure format when they next log in. It also adds a
.gitignorerule to prevent test artifacts and sensitive data from being committed.✅ Verification: The entire project builds successfully (
mvn package), and all tests pass, including new tests specifically for the password hashing logic.PR created automatically by Jules for task 3749597165858060350 started by @richkmeli
