Description

<…>9Avlkx69M/Ck=‘.
When a client connects to a Tarantool instance, |the instance sends a random
salt value
which the client must mix with the hashed-password before sending
to the instance. Thus the original value ‘x’ is never stored anywhere except
in the user’s head, and the hashed value is never passed down a network wire
except when mi|xed
with a random salt.
