PHP Radius密码嗅探

Question

I recently wrote this piece of code:

$radius = radius_auth_open();
radius_add_server($radius, $serverIP, $port_no, 'secret', 5, 3);
radius_create_request($radius, RADIUS_ACCESS_REQUEST);
radius_put_attr($radius, RADIUS_USER_NAME, $username);
radius_put_attr($radius, RADIUS_USER_PASSWORD, $password);

$result = radius_send_request($radius);

switch ($result)
{
    case RADIUS_ACCESS_ACCEPT:
    // etc...

And my var $password is not encrypted at all, in fact, if I encrypt it with password_hash() radius won't recognize it.

Thus my question is:

Can a sniffer pick up that password? Or does radius_send_request already scramble it because of the parameter RADIUS_USER_PASSWORD?

---

EDIT:

I confused the terms hash and encrypt.

Radius does obfuscate the password when given the parameter attribute RADIUS_USER_PASSWORD. That is enough security for my system.

Thanks!

Answer 1

Radius does obfuscate the password when given the parameter attribute RADIUS_USER_PASSWORD.

So nobody should be able to sniff your radius authentication
