URL: https://github.com/apache/airflow/issues/44019

   ### Description
   
   Currently, the password input fields in Apache Airflow's login forms do not 
have the autocomplete attribute set to off. This allows browsers to store 
passwords entered by users, which poses a potential security risk—especially 
when accessing Airflow from shared or public computers. To enhance security and 
adhere to best practices for handling sensitive information, the autocomplete 
attribute should be disabled for all password fields in form-based 
authentication.
   
   ### Use case/motivation
   
   As an employee responsible for the security of our corporate IT systems that 
utilize Apache Airflow, I want to enhance the protection of user credentials by 
disabling the autocomplete feature on password fields. This change will make 
our systems more secure for all users by preventing browsers from storing 
sensitive passwords, which could be exploited if a device is compromised or 
shared. Additionally, implementing this fix will ensure that our automated 
security scanners no longer flag this issue, helping us maintain compliance 
with our organization's security policies and reducing the overhead of managing 
reported vulnerabilities.
