Obfuscate / hide Google Play Music password #30
Comments
This is definitely a problem that has to be solved. As a quick hack you may remove 'password' from line 105 in the file Settings.pm. This way the password is not shown anymore. But the password is still saved as plaintext in the SLIM preferences. It could be encrypted. |
Ah that's great, thank you! If I need to change any settings in the gmusic plugin, will pressing 'Apply' wipe out the saved password? |
No, it will not. The saved password will only be changed if you enter something into the password field. |
Excellent - thank you :) |
Also consider enabling two-factor authentication for your Google account. For the plugin, and other apps that don't have two factor auth, you'll have The single use password is still sensitive, but at least it can't be used It would be cool if gmusicapi supported full two-factor, but not urgent.

@ukslim it seems that I will have to take a look at this two factor authentication. I already have some other requests to support this. |
Just started using the plugin. This feels quite urgent. After saving the password is should NOT be displayed in the google music settings page. |
OK. If it's really urgent you could remove
I will do so in the next release. |
Hi,
At the moment the 'Password' field in the Google Music shows the account password in plaintext. I use my SqueezeServer as a shared resource for the house which means that the password for my own Google account is shown to anyone on the LAN who browses the SqueezeServer settings.
I trust my family so I'm not too worried. Even so, it would be great to not show the password.
Can the password field be made 'write only'? Perhaps replace the current text-box with the word '[stored]' and an option to change the stored password?
Thanks for a great plugin - it's excellent to see there's still life in the 'SlimServer' even after Logitech abandoned it....
