The "=" on the end suggests that it's base64, and the example was
missing the extra ":" which would indicate that it is.  Decoding that
gives "{SSHA}oIYyblX7O93dQYbcmyP6Wh1HuDHCkfB0".

Perhaps the value was accidentally converted so that it's actually being
stored that way in the directory, when it shouldn't be.
