[Lem0nHead]

hello

anyone know if it's possible to use cPanel Accounting.php.inc with password instead of hash?

my think is:
1) i can send the password when I want to use it (in my case... i know it's not everyones case)
2) just root would be able to get this password (sniffer)
3) not only root could read a php file (maybe breaking some layers like basedir restriction)

thanks

Note: at this time by best solution is to encrypt the hash with a password and decrypt it with the password given..
