password is never sent to an external_acl helper, only the basic auth
helpers (auth_param basic program ...).

/path/to/my/eXhelper.pl will be sent the authenticated login name plus
the Host: header value per the specifications above.

I.e. if user louis requests www.squid-cache.org the helper will be sent

louis www.squid-cache.org

this is regardless of which authentication scheme was used.
authentication is separate from authorization, and only the basic auth
scheme has passwords... (the others all use one-time hashes).
