Hi,

It has been reported that the password setting routine in qemu limits the 
password length to 7 instead of 8 characters as intended:
http://web.nvd.nist.gov/view/vuln/detail?vulnId=CVE-2008-5714

It would be very desirable to fix this in lenny, because it could be regarded 
to be a security issue in a way. Etch seems not affected.

Please reference the CVE id when fixing this issue.


thanks,
Thijs
