C# Protect the Password inside a TextBox ZZ
If the Text property is called, it will send an WM_GETTEXT
message, so it will surely be an internal (safe) call. But if that message is received and the Text
property wasn't called, then it might be risky to return the password, so we'll not process that message.
I wrote a "safer" TextBox
here, just to show you the idea, feel free to write your own or simply improve this one.
class ProtectedTextBox : TextBox { // the malicious message, that needs to be handled private const int WM_GETTEXT = 0x000D; // 'true' if the messages are sent from our program (from Text property) // 'false' if they're sent by anything else bool allowAccess { get; set; } public override string Text // overriding Text property { get { allowAccess = true; // allow WM_GETTEXT (because it's an internal call) return base.Text; //this sends the message above in order to retrieve the TextBox's value } set { base.Text = value; } } protected override void WndProc(ref Message m) { if (m.Msg == WM_GETTEXT) // if the message is WM_GETTEXT { if (allowAccess) // and it comes from the Text property { allowAccess = false; //we temporarily remove the access base.WndProc(ref m); //and finally, process the message } } else base.WndProc(ref m); } }
