WL#17160: Support PBKDF2 storage format with Caching_sha2_password
Description:
- Added PBKDF2 storage format support for plugin
caching_sha2_password
- Added option caching_sha2_password_storage_format to control
password storage format
- Added option caching_sha2_password_enforce_storage_format to
control behavior in case password is hashed using format
other than the one specified by
caching_sha2_password_storage_format
- Made caching_sha2_password_digest_rounds dynamic
- Added unit and functional tests
Bug#38879953 - X Plugin is missing support for PBKDF2 storage format with Caching_sha2_password Description =========== WL#17160 introduced a new storage format type (PBKDF2) for caching_sha2_password. Without implementing support for this type, the X Plugin will reject authentications targeting caching_sha2_password accounts that have their password hash stored using PBKDF2 format. Fix === X Plugin must support new type. Thus both hash types my work with X Protocol: CRYPT5, PBKDF2_SHA512. Change-Id: I8fc29705eaa1fe33f2d569253d419cf8405ce6ec
