           Summary: Security: The JSAPI widget generates javascript that
                    includes connection parameters
           Product: Chameleon
           Version: 2.0
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: critical
          Priority: P2
         Component: Widget
        AssignedTo: chameleon-dev at lists.maptools.org
        ReportedBy: cplists at gmail.com


I noticed that the javascript generated by the JSAPI widget includes all the
layer information from my map file including connection parameters for Postgis
layers which includes the user name and password!

According to Paul Spencer this can be fixed by editing:

chameleon/htdocs/widgets/cwcjsapi/cwcjsapi.widget.php

and removing line 208 which reads:

$szLayerInfo .="aLayerconnection[".$i."] = '" .  $poLayer->connection .
"';\n";
