---------------------------------------

             Summary: Provide a secure way to pass password to nodetool, cassandra-cli and other tools
                 Key: CASSANDRA-5316
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-5316
             Project: Cassandra
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Core
    Affects Versions: 1.1.10
            Reporter: Oleg Kibirev


Currently, if nodetool or cassandra-cli are invoked by another application, plaintext thrift or JMX password are visible to whoever does ps auxww. We need some other method to pass these in, for example a way to read arguments from file or first line of stdin.
