We recently perform a security scan against our Hudson instance, from the scan report, we are flagged with an high issue for password management: Insecure Submission.

When an user is logging to Hudson, the user password was found in the query string of a GET request or Set-Cookie Header. The recommendation is to ensure that login information is sent with a POST request.

Any chance on fixing that in the future version of Hudson?

Thanks for that. can you file this in Bugzilla using the link below:

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/enter_bug.cgi?product=Hudson&component=Core


As soon as you've opened the bug I'll file it as a Security issue.
