WingFTP Weblinks URL shows password in plaintext

Post by madslyneborg »

Hi,

I was wondering if this is a general issue? And is there currently a fix to this or awareness about this? :-)

Kind Regards

Yes, WingFTP will pass the password via GET method for the weblinks. If you are using HTTPS for the web client, then everything will be encrypted, no worry about it.
