Reported by conrj...@gmail.com, Sep 20 2017

Issue description

This template is ONLY for reporting security bugs. If you are reporting a
Download Protection Bypass bug, please use the "Security - Download
Protection" template. For all other reports, please use a different
template.

Please READ THIS FAQ before filing a bug: https://chromium.googlesource.com
/chromium/src/+/master/docs/security/faq.md

Please see the following link for instructions on filing security bugs:
https://www.chromium.org/Home/chromium-security/reporting-security-bugs

NOTE: Security bugs are normally made public once a fix has been widely
deployed.

VULNERABILITY DETAILS
1.I went to %User Profile%\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\Login Data
2.Opened the file in TextPad and notepad
3.I opened up my Login Data in TextPad and all of my passwords were encrypted, but certain things like my security questions for my password recovery from https://netsecure.adp.com were in plain text as seen below. It shows the full question and the answers as well as my user ID. It is not encrypted like all of my other information. 

VERSION
Chrome Version: 61.0.3163.91 Official Build 64-bit
Operating System: Windows 7 Enterprise SP1]





REPRODUCTION CASE: Below is the non-encrypted log I have pulled from my computer.

Status: WontFix (was: Unconfirmed)
As a best effort, Chrome stores passwords in the platform's password storage facility:

https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/master/docs/security/faq.md#Does-the-Password-Manager-store-my-passwords-encrypted-on-disk

But all other profile information is stored in plaintext, including HTTP cache, cookies, HTML5 localStorage, and so on. This is because attackers who can access your computer, using your account, logged in as you, are outside Chrome's threat model:
