Disable Remember username & password checkbox in OneClick WebApp

Issue/Introduction

When someone saves their credentials to the OneClick WebApp, anyone who logs in afterward can log in with their credentials.

For example, if I save my credentials on the Spectrum OneClick WebApp and a colleague comes after logging into the console, he will see my credentials and be able to log in with my account.

It's a bug?



Version of Spectrum:

cat /data/Spectrum/Install-Tools/.history
10.3.0.0.341 04/17/2019 13:13
10.3.2.0.83 04/19/2019 13:44
10.4.3.0.21 03/23/2021 22:34

Environment

Release : 20.2

Cause

The checkbox option of Remember username & password has been disabled from the WebApp from Spectrum version 10.3.1 onwards.

But in the $SPECROOT/webtomcat/webswing/webswing.config file there was missing parameter: -ssl false

Resolution

Add the -ssl false parameter in the following row:

From: "args" : "-host localhost -port 8080 -contextPort 43000 -compress 9 -model_bits 24 ${customArgs}",

To: "args" : "-host localhost -port 8080 -ssl false -contextPort 43000 -compress 9 -model_bits 24 ${customArgs}",

Stop the WebTomcat service ($SPECROOT/webtomcat/bin/stopWebTomcat.sh)

Delete the $SPECROOT/webtomcat/work/ directory

Start the WebTomcat serivce ($SPECROOT/webtomcat/bin/startWebTomcat.sh)
