Lenny Primak created MNG-8417: --------------------------------- Summary: New encrypted passwords prevent maven from building projects Key: MNG-8417 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-8417 Project: Maven Issue Type: Bug Components: Settings Affects Versions: 4.0.0-rc-1, 4.0.0-beta-5 Reporter: Lenny Primak
When settings.xml contains new-style encrypted passwords, maven will not build unless it can decrypt the password. The use case is that the passwords are used only for deployment, while 99% of the use cases don't require the passwords. This forces the users to have to have secure environment variables or other ways to get the master password at all times, enhancing security risks -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.10#820010)
