Redux-form: Is it safe to use redux-form for password fields?

Created on 2 Jan 2016  路  3Comments  路  Source: redux-form/redux-form

I want to use this for a login form but after login I don't want the password staying around in memory (in case of XSS or some other issue, I don't want it to be available to be stolen.) Is it safe to use redux-form for the password field? Or is there a way to clear the value from memory after the login call is made?

Yes. The form is destroyed by default when you unmount the form component. Alternatively, you may dispatch the DESTROY action yourself.
