The SASL authentication protocol sends cleartext passwords across a local UNIX domain socket. That's very similar: local IPC. I use this in a web service to authenticate users. The form containing the password is submitted over HTTPS. The CGI script opens the socket, and sends it to saslauthd, which replies OK or not. |
