Hello,
storing the password in the connection object enables me to spy easily the passwords of my users when they login. The password should be immediately thrown away once connected and not stored. It looks like its anyhow not used, so why store it?
This package is used by a login screen in my app and I can now easily see the passwords of my users.
The application will not pass a security scan of our cybersecurity team.

Hi guys,
is this issue not important? I can extract and store the password of my users after they have logged in using ldap3 authentication. Why in the world is it necessary to store the password?
