https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=393730 Summary: inst_user_first.ycp advises users to use passwords without special characters Product: openSUSE 11.0 Version: Beta 3plus Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: YaST2 AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: lnussel@novell.com QAContact: jsrain@novell.com CC: security-team@suse.de Found By: --- inst_user_first.ycp advises users to use passwords "without special characters". It actually wants say that one should not use umlauts, however the way it is written (and then translated to e.g. German(!)) makes it sound like no 'special' characters like $, %, & etc should be used. Later in the text it does explain why Umlauts should be avoided more precisely but no hint is given about how good password look like (and good password should contain non-alphanumeric chars). -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
