View 3 RepliesI'm looking to create my application as secure as possible. Now I have following line of code:
[Code]....
As you can see, my password is in plain-text in the code. Now, I presume it's easy to decompile a code using a tool and getting your hands on the password. Since these are my AD Admin-credentials this is not that good.The AuthenticationTypes are secure, I think. They encrypt the data before sending it to the network.So there's just the problem of the plain-text password. I've searched for it on Google but can't find the proper solution. I've found alot about encrypting passwords in the web.config.
I had been trying to solve this but there is a hidden key i wish someone point me to.
I had a simple membership database with users in first the Membership Provider configured for clear password to retrieve the original password .
Now a new requirement say that the password must be hashed and reset .
I configure the Membership password to hash , and Implemented the Reset Password Module.
My problem is as follow.
If the user is new registered user with the new configuration the password and the security answer is hashed.
also when I go and reset the password it continue to be hashed.
Now I thought that with new configuration if any previous user with clear text configuration , If he use the password Reset module , because my configuration now is hashed , I expected that the new password and security answer will be hashed . what happen is old user continue in clear text even if the configuration is hashed. so If I had new users everything is fine.
old users Membership Provider somehow know they had been stored in clear text and it keep change password and security answer in clear text . If I delete this user and create it , Membership Provider understand that everything will be hashed. I need to know how it know this , I need to migrate users not to delete and recreate users .
Also if there are no solution for that , I wish Microsoft Consider it in future cause it is a real user scenario, that can happen imagine a business system that related to membership user Id , deleting users and recreate them is not a solution .
I just begin creating a website for an organization. First page to be displayed in the login page. I dont have any knowledge in ASP.NET Security. On Login page, i want to display UserName field as disabled with the useralias of the user who currently logged into Windows. Password user has to provide and it should be that user's windows password.
How do i validate that password that user has entered is his windows password?
I have used a rich textbox control,ckeditor in my case,When any formatting is done to the text the formatted text is populated in the datagrid.But I want to extract only the plain text in the grid and trim the length of data to 80 characters while populating.
The query for updating the answer is as follows
[Code]....
I have a custom membership user class and custom MembershipProvider working against database. Due to security reasons the user passwords are stored in the database as hashed values. So my procedure
public override bool ValidateUser(string username, string password) is
{
//select hashed password from db
return (EncodePassword(password) == dbpassword)
}
[code]....
Is there a way to get the plain text from the html editors .content?
View 2 RepliesI am using a GenericHandler to print information out as text/plain in the client browser.
Currently when I run the app, the title-bar says something like http://localhost:3014/myApp/ShowReport?id=123456
I do need to modify the actual url. I just want a user-friendly title in the browser tab that is more descriptive of the report they are looking at. So if the user selects to view report TI591, then TI591 will appear in the browser tab.
I am newbie to web technology, and my experience is purely C#. I got an HTML design from a web designer, and I am building over it and learning as I go.I have some web pages for authorized access and others for anonymous users Also, I learned that denying access for anonymous users is done through adding the authorization tag using the following change in the webconfig

To meet the needs of a colleague, I must get plian text into a MSMQ message queue. Trouble is, Sytem.Messaging results in a body wich defaults to xml content. I had thoght that this would get round the problem - but it doesn't:
[Code]....
The body content looks rather strange actually - it reads:
54 65 73 74 20 54 65 78 Test Tex
74 20 4D 65 73 73 61 67 t Messag
65 e
Any thoughts on how to get rid of all those numbers and just have a plain text body?
Anyone have this problem. When you write a ex. label name or label text in the properties window, it look like its updating the text before you actually are finish. This make you type over what you allready wrote. Its not a big problem,

I have an ASP.Net 4.0 application that is using Forms Authentication and ActiveDirectoryMembershipProvider. It authenticates against Active Directory running on Windows Server 2008 R2.I use ChangePassword control for changing passwords.When the user changes the password he can log on for some time with the old password. My client feels this is a security problem with the application. Is there any way to make sure the old password does not work after the user changes it?Also, if I do iisreset on the web server, the old password stops working. The password must be cached somewhere in the web app.

Password incorrect or New Password invalid. New Password length minimum: 7. Non-alphanumeric characters required: 1.

i have win 7 with internet explorer 8.
i have a Web application project in the VS2010,
when i execute it using local port auto-asign port, the aspx page shows ok on the internet explorer.
when i run the same project from the IIS (Browsing the aspx page from the iis), only the controls text is displays without the controls (colors and menus .. ) - although the source view shows that the tags exists.
I have a C# project in Visual Studio that produces an aspx page. The code I am editing is in default.asp.cs. When I build the project a file default.aspx is produced. This file looks something like this:
<%@ Page Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeBehind="Default.aspx.cs" Inherits="CSRValidationConnector._Default" %>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" [URL]-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="[URL] >
<head runat="server">
<title></title>
</head>
<body>
<form id="form1" runat="server">
<div>
</div>
</form>
</body>
</html>
When I make my web request most of this page comes back. But I want the page to return only plain text and not any of this HTML. How do I configure things so that nothing is returned except what I add via Response.Write calls in default.aspx.cs?
If I were to respond to an http request with a plain text in PHP, I would do something like:
<?php
header('Content-Type: text/plain');
echo "This is plain text";
?>
How would I do the equivalent in ASP.NET?
