dongjinleekr opened a new pull request #11430: URL: https://github.com/apache/kafka/pull/11430
As I left in the comments, the `StreamTokenizer` used by `org.apache.kafka.common.security.JaasConfig` recognizes alphabetical characters, dash, underscore, and dollar sign as a 'word' only. Because of that, a string that contains a number or a symbol like '^' (which are so common in the password) raises an error. ### Committer Checklist (excluded from commit message) - [ ] Verify design and implementation - [ ] Verify test coverage and CI build status - [ ] Verify documentation (including upgrade notes) -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
