描述
##### ISSUE TYPE
* Improvement Request
##### COMPONENT NAME
~~~
Remote Access VPN Services (L2TP-over-IPsec)
~~~
##### CLOUDSTACK VERSION
~~~
4.19, 4.20
~~~
##### CONFIGURATION
- Remote Access VPN Service enabled on guest networks or VPCs
- Create VPN Users
##### SUMMARY
The users' credentials for the VPN remote access service are in plaintext in /etc/ppp/chap-secrets file. Even though the VRs are secured and only the platform administrators have access to them, it is not a good practice and and may even have security consequences to leave the passwords in plain text.
It would be a good improvement if it were possible to hashing this data (or something like that).
##### STEPS TO REPRODUCE
~~~
- Enable VPN remote access service in guest network or VPC
- Create a VPN User
- Verify that the /etc/ppp/chap-secrets file on the virtual router contains the VPN user credentials in plaintext.
~~~
##### EXPECTED RESULTS
~~~
User credentials should not be in plaintext.
~~~
##### ACTUAL RESULTS
~~~
User credentials are in plaintext.

貢獻指南
研究方向
從虛擬路由器的 Remote Access VPN Service 佈建流程著手,檢查 /etc/ppp/chap-secrets 的產生方式。在變更行為之前,確定受支援的驗證方式及其安全性影響。完成標準是 VPN 認證資訊不以純文字儲存,且相關的 VPN 覆蓋範圍能夠驗證結果。
