# Corrected SME Server Password Change Application

## Overview
A corrected Python Flask web application for SME Server password management that uses the **proper database structure** and **external zxcvbn password validation library**.

## ✅ **Corrections Made**

### 🔧 **Correct Database Structure**
The application now properly reads from the actual SME Server passwordstrength configuration:

```bash
passwordstrength=configuration
    Admin=strong
    Ibays=strong  
    Users=strong
```

**Previous (Incorrect)**: `passwordstrength.Passwordstrength`  
**Current (Correct)**: `passwordstrength.Users`, `passwordstrength.Admin`, `passwordstrength.Ibays`

### 📚 **External Password Validation Library**
- **Library**: `zxcvbn-python 4.4.28` - Industry-standard password strength estimation
- **Features**: Advanced pattern detection, dictionary attacks, keyboard patterns, common passwords
- **Fallback**: Basic validation when zxcvbn is not available

## 🔒 **Features**

### 🎯 **Configurable Password Strength Validation**
- **Three Account Types**: Users, Admin, Ibays (separate configuration)
- **Three Strength Levels**: None, Normal, Strong
- **Database Driven**: Reads actual SME Server configuration
- **Real-time Validation**: Instant feedback with zxcvbn scoring

#### Password Strength Levels:
- **None**: Basic validation only
- **Normal**: 12+ characters with uppercase, lowercase, number, and special character
- **Strong**: Normal requirements + zxcvbn advanced validation against:
  - Common passwords (10k+ database)
  - Keyboard patterns (qwerty, 123456, etc.)
  - Dictionary words and names
  - Repeated sequences and patterns
  - Contextual analysis (username, etc.)

### 👁️ **Password Visibility Toggles**
- **Show/Hide buttons** for all password fields
- **Dynamic text changes** (Show ↔ Hide)
- **Secure implementation** with proper clearing

### 📊 **Real-time Password Strength Indicator**
- **zxcvbn Scoring**: Professional 0-4 scale (Very Weak → Strong)
- **Detailed Feedback**: Specific suggestions from zxcvbn
- **Color-coded Display**: Visual strength indication
- **Live Updates**: Changes as user types

### ⚙️ **Admin Configuration Panel**
- **Separate Controls**: Users, Admin, Ibays password strength
- **Web Interface**: Easy configuration at `/admin`
- **Live Updates**: Changes apply immediately
- **Visual Feedback**: Clear current setting display

# Verify changes
db configuration show passwordstrength
```

## 🔍 **zxcvbn Validation Examples**

### Normal Strength (12+ chars, complexity)
- ✅ `MySecure123!` - Valid
- ❌ `password123` - Missing uppercase and special char
- ❌ `MySecure!` - Too short (less than 12 chars)

### Strong Strength (Normal + zxcvbn validation)
- ✅ `MyUniqueP@ssw0rd2024` - Valid (zxcvbn score: 4/4)
- ❌ `MyPassword123!` - Contains common word "Password" (zxcvbn score: 1/4)
- ❌ `Qwerty123456!` - Keyboard pattern detected (zxcvbn score: 0/4)
- ❌ `MySecure123123!` - Repeated sequence detected (zxcvbn score: 2/4)
- ❌ `testuser123!` - Contains username "testuser" (zxcvbn score: 1/4)

## 🧪 **Testing**

### Demo Mode
```bash
# Start demo application with zxcvbn
python3 demo_mode.py

# Access demo at http://localhost:5003
# Demo users: testuser/oldpassword123, admin/adminpass456, john/johnpass789
```

### API Endpoints
- **POST** `/api/password-strength` - Real-time zxcvbn validation
- **GET/POST** `/api/password-config` - Manage strength settings for all account types
- **GET** `/health` - Application health check with zxcvbn status
- **GET** `/demo-info` - Demo mode information

## 🔧 **Configuration Examples**

### Database Structure Verification
```bash
# Check current structure
db configuration show passwordstrength

# Expected output:
# passwordstrength=configuration
#     Admin=strong
#     Ibays=strong
#     Users=strong

# Individual property access
db configuration getprop passwordstrength Users    # strong
db configuration getprop passwordstrength Admin    # strong
db configuration getprop passwordstrength Ibays    # strong
```

### Strength Level Configuration
```bash
# Set different levels for different account types
db configuration setprop passwordstrength Users strong    # Users need strong passwords
db configuration setprop passwordstrength Admin strong    # Admins need strong passwords  
db configuration setprop passwordstrength Ibays normal    # Ibays use normal strength

# Apply configuration (if needed)

## 🛡️ **Security Features**

### zxcvbn Advanced Protection
- **10,000+ Common Passwords**: Blocked automatically
- **Keyboard Pattern Detection**: qwerty, 123456, asdf, etc.
- **Dictionary Attack Protection**: English words, names, places
- **Contextual Analysis**: Considers username and personal info
- **Sequence Detection**: Repeated patterns like "123123" or "abcabc"
- **Substitution Awareness**: Detects "p@ssw0rd" style substitutions

### Secure Implementation

## 🔄 **Migration from Previous Version**

### Database Structure Changes
- **Old**: Single `Passwordstrength` property
- **New**: Separate `Users`, `Admin`, `Ibays` properties
- **Migration**: Automatic detection and warning if structure is incorrect

### New Features Added
- **zxcvbn Integration**: Professional password validation
- **Multi-Account Support**: Separate settings for Users/Admin/Ibays
- **Enhanced Feedback**: Detailed zxcvbn suggestions
- **Improved Admin Panel**: Separate controls for each account type

## 🐛 **Troubleshooting**

### Common Issues
1. **zxcvbn Not Available**: Application falls back to basic validation
2. **Database Structure**: Warns if passwordstrength structure is incorrect
3. **Permission Issues**: Ensure proper file ownership and permissions
4. **Port Conflicts**: Check if port 5000 is available

### Debug Commands
```bash
# Check service status
systemctl status smeserver-password-corrected

# View logs
journalctl -u smeserver-password-corrected -f

# Test database connectivity
db configuration show passwordstrength

# Verify zxcvbn installation
python3 -c "import zxcvbn; print('zxcvbn available')"

# Test password validation
curl -X POST http://localhost:5000/api/password-strength \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"password":"test123","username":"testuser"}'
```

## 📈 **Performance**
