Plain Text MariaDB Client Passwords
MariaDB and MySQL-compatible client tools read ~/.my.cnf, which commonly stores database passwords as plaintext option-file entries. Our isotope stores that option file in the macOS keychain and passes it as a temporary --defaults-extra-file only while MariaDB client commands run.
Local README excerpt
MariaDB Radioisotope
MariaDB and MySQL-compatible client tools read option files such as ~/.my.cnf. Those files often contain plaintext password = ... entries for the [client] group.
This radioisotope migrates the default user option file into the macOS keychain and wraps common MariaDB/MySQL-compatible client launchers so they receive the option file through a temporary --defaults-extra-file while they run.
Caveats
- We currently migrate the default
~/.my.cnffile only. - Existing option files are not merged with generated temporary files.
- Direct execution of the original binaries will not receive credentials.
