Nothing happens, the running process will just be aborted after the
third try.

GnuPG: Bad Passphrase (try 2 of 3)

2019-01-07 Thread Matthias Apitz

Hello,

I've GnuPG 2.1.12 on my mobile device (without any OpenPGP card) and
generated there a new secret key to encrypt credentials I'm using on
this device. I was a bit surprised reading (after entering a bas
passphrase for testing):

 
┌┐
 │ Please enter the passphrase to unlock the OpenPGP secret 
key:  │
 │ "Matthias Apitz (BQ E4.5 key) "
  │
 │ 4096-bit RSA key, ID FA46903FD2B8E5E9,   
  │
 │ created 2019-01-07 (main key ID 8F3E3E3C247AB779).

  │

  │
 │ Passphrase: 
__ │
 │  
  │
 │

└┘

Note: This is not with the PIN of an OpenPGP-card. What would happen
exactly after the 3rd bad value? Destroy of the key or my device? :-)

Thanks

matthias
