** No longer affects: gdm3 (Ubuntu) ** Also affects: gnome-shell via https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/issues/460 Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown ** Description changed: - https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gdm/issues/305 - - --- - Hello, folks, Today when I returned to my computer (which I locked with Super+L) and attempted to unlock it, it displayed my passphrase in cleartext in the 'Password' box. I noticed as soon as I got the first character in, then typed in the second character and it stayed clear. I then picked up my phone to record the attached video and while I was fiddling with it to get a good camera shot, the screen locked (for inactivity perhaps?) and when I unlocked this time, the password only displayed as dots (as expected). So unfortunately, I don't know how to replicate. It _did_ occur though, as the attached video will show if you go slowly (look for "hu", the first characters of legendary password "hunter2").
