6.43 changes for the WEB Auth and API Auth

Fri Jun 08, 2018 1:27 pm

hello.
i have 2 questions.
1. on the recent MUM, i've heard that from 6.43 there will be new API login method. Now, the password will be sent in cleartext (!)
while it definitely simplifies the login process, it:
1.1. breaks all the API libs out there
1.2. drives everyone to use SSL for API
1.3. has no sense as for me :)
can we please know the drivers of this change?

2. !) webfig - improved authentication process; <-- this is from the changelog of 6.43
Am i correct, that you will wipe out MD4 and RC4, which you use there?
Is there any change that the webfig can be more convenient for developers to use in their applications?
