Re: [cgiapp] problem with form-data (get/post)


My understanding is that this kind of encryption uses a 
"salt". In other words you add a string (salt) to the user's password
and in your application (typically a database) 
you store the encrypted concatenation of the password and the salt.  So
the weak point is the salt string. If someone can brute force find your
salt string you are in trouble.

How are you running perl in the browser (perlscript)?

I'm using the TripleDES Function from the Perl-Modul Crypt::TripleDES -
no javascript function.
