https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=220665 Summary: unexpected behaviour when password for encrypted partition is too short Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Beta 2 Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Update Problems AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: suse-beta@cboltz.de QAContact: jsrain@novell.com I discovered a strange and unexpected behaviour in the "mount encrypted partition" dialog when updating my system to 10.2 beta2. How to reproduce: - run update installation on a system with an encrypted partition (twofish256-encrypted, created with SUSE 9.3 or newer - losetup enforces at least 8 characters for the password in this case) - in the dialog asking for the mount password, enter a too short password (for example "abcd") in both input fields - click OK Expected result: - error popup saying "password too short" or "wrong password" Actual result: - no error popup - password input fields cleared silently No y2logs this time because it's quite obvious. If you really need them, just ask. -- 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, or are watching someone who is.
