Of course the question many of us are asking is, if using Cloudflare is secure, how can they be analysing users passwords if the traffic is supposed to be encrypted?

@acesabe The traffic is encrypted from client to cloudflare and from there to the backend server.

It is normal that a load balancer can decrypt the content - otherwise it would not know the target server.
However, it is not normal that a load balancer sniffs on passwords and do some other things with them besides forwarding them.
